yikes
<XXCoder>
crazy
<packbart>
the console version must run well enough as required by their contracts with the console store owners. they can quality-manage the PC version at their own pace
<Izzy>
> 4090/5950x cannot maintain a solid 60 fps
<XXCoder>
i cant picture how well my gtx 1060 would do lol
<XXCoder>
probably slide show
<Izzy>
I mean, if it's dipping below 60 on like 900000W computers but running okay on the laptop hardware on consoles that's still yikes but I'd say that "60 with dips" is playable
<Izzy>
not a good sign for midrange cards though, yeah
<Izzy>
not everyone can afford car money for their graphics card alone
<XXCoder>
yeah
<Althego>
that was just average framerate, in many siuations it was a lot worse

it's a nice game to relax to. But you still have to catch a decent amount of fish to pay all the fees
<Eddi|zuHause>
isn't EVERY game nowaday littered with "this is unoptimized" reviews?
<Althego>
probably
<Althego>
but this was an extreme case
<Mat2ch>
Eddi|zuHause: probably.
<Mat2ch>
And the problem causing this is not good educated developers.
<Mat2ch>
If you make a game and don't think about efficiency if you add things to it, then you are not well enough educated.
<Althego>
no, probably managemen
<Althego>
good enough, release it
<Mat2ch>
And the problem will get worse. Because nowadays the younger generation doesn't tinker with the hardware anymore, because most of them use locked-in smartphones
<Eddi|zuHause>
there's many layers to that. management setting unfulfillable goals. developers focusing on wrong things. players having unrealistic expectations
<Althego>
they use game engines in development, you dont even need to go near the hardware level
<Eddi|zuHause>
that's not necessarily a bad thing
<Eddi|zuHause>
but sometimes these levels of indirections make optimization harder
<Eddi|zuHause>
because to optimize the game engine people need to talk to people that use the game engine how they use it.
<Eddi|zuHause>
which can either mean the use cases can be better handled by the game engine, or the use cases are changed to better match what the game engine can provide efficiently

funny thing about the universe and the "simulation speed". Since we measure time by comparing it to other stuff in the universe, it's rather easy to slow down the simulation speed without anyone inside of it noticing ;)
<darsie>
exactly, my point :).
<darsie>
Which is also why I might use a 1 MW Hawking radiation black hole than a 1 GW one, because the 1 MW one is bigger and easier to feed.
<darsie>
I/we'd run on a slower speed, but we'd have the same amount of thought.
