Having tried it, I do think 120 fps feels a little smoother but I don't think it's worth the investment. 75 is already fine.

There is an entire sub-industry and probably thousands of jobs being propped up by this stupid way of thinking about software. I can't be mad at it because it pays the bills for a few of my friends...

Imo 4k is overkill anyway, and chasing even 60 fps (not to mention 120 which seems to be the norm these days) at this resolution for current/"next" gen games is basically a scam from hardware manufacturers to get us to buy their overly expensive "gamer" grade shit.

Now I know it's a bit of an extreme view in the gaming space, but imo this shit is not sustainable and doesn't even bring that much to the table in terms of fidelity/enjoyment. 1440p works just fine and is much easier to work with, especially as your hardware gets older because fill rate really is a bitch with modern photorealistic games.

Yeah I saw that this morning when I tried to find the next article. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

This. My PC is a ship of Theseus 15 years in the making. At this point, it doesn't have any part from my very first build because I finally changed my old-ass PSU and case (finally got one that has easily cleanable dust covers everywhere) with my last upgrade, although I still have my old 250 GB SSD that was my top-of-the-line system drive back then but I couldn't be arsed to plug it in for that amount of storage. Also still have my old 1 TB HDD that's still going strong, but I don't really trust it anymore since it's that old, and my newer SSDs are as big or bigger, so right now I don't have the need for it

I was gonna say, I love fatshark's games but unfortunately they've been pretty fucking far from based lately

Oh wow, yeah, I couldn't see the forks at all until I read this. Even reading the message above, I thought I was just seeing the tips of the forks that I thought were out of frame

I can still mostly see what I originally saw by defocusing my eyes though (looking "through the picture" like with those stereograms thing)

JFC that's gotta be at the very least 6x margin. When 1 idiot with more money than sense can net them 2 months of good salary I'm not surprised they stay in business
