What years best looking game do the average AAA titles match now?
I think the mid tier graphics from high end games today match high graphics settings from say 2018 high end games. That's just my opinion though.
What do you guys think?
Is there a noticeable difference in graphics quality every half a decade even now?
Game graphics clearly Still have lots of space to improve even in current year. The primary advantage next gen unreal engine seems to provide is the upgrade in character animation and movement. All previous generations kind of sucked at giving a natural flow to human movements across the environment. That seems to have been solved for now and should become a common feature in the coming years.
PS6 will likely be when games will feel like a true next generation experience as the PS5 feels more like a FPS and basic QoL upgrader rather than anything unique that stands out completely.
What's your take on the future of video game graphics?

This week, let's discuss SpaceChem, Zachtronic's classic zachtronic game. I'm sure with so many on this site, some of you have played it, and probably either hated it or it furthered you along the path towards a formal autism dianosis, a career in codeceling, and absolutely no bitches.

Here's what they're talking about:
It's not even "body type" anymore, you're just a weird enby blob no matter what you do
I'm trans and these new avatars are literally what I look like IRL 😭 I wanna escape reality with this game, not be faced with the hard truth that my body is a deformed mess 😔
Will this finally make devs stop uglifying your avatar options? Will the boob slider come back? !g*mers !chuds

Todd Howard has officially confirmed that the bombs fell on Shady Sands after the events of Fallout: New Vegas pic.twitter.com/AmyyTVi7d1

Quick recap for all you filthy normies and tourists.
Fallout TV show came out last week. (It's good actually! ). According to Bethesda it's fully canon in the fallout universe.
But uh oh! The neurodivergents (me ) got mad because the show heavily implied that a location (NCR Capital in Shady Sands) that is important to the events of Fallout: New Vegas was destroyed in the year 2277. But Fallout New Vegas doesn't happen until 2281. (Again )If true this means that the events of Fallout New Vegas could not have occurred as they are depicted in the game.
But it's all good, Todd the God came out today in an interview and established that the location was destroyed after the events of New Vegas; thus the timeline is restored.

It took them almost a year to fix the game. The increase damage is needed because most fights especially on hard is just fighting sponge also swiping between 5 instead of 3 skills also great improvement.
I just recently tried to play on hard and it was such boredom

Most indie games that succeed, succeeded when they were the sole good free 2 play game that run on every system. Like a kid didn't had beast pc and money to buy pubg but there was alternative Fortnite. Now why would he switch to another battle royal game if there is Fortnite that all his classmate playing ? Now a legit success live service game is gayshin impact it's a Zelda wannabe that is free and on non Nintendo console then their next game is live service Jrpg (honkai stars railway) but most game dev hope to just copy someone else game and get rich.
Cliff Blazinsky was the most hilarious one, tried copy overwatch failed and instantly started trying to copy pubg/Fortnite
