The increase in storage requirements for mobile games really escaped me. It feels like we went from megabyte sized games to tens of gigabytes in a couple of years.
The pre-load for Persona5-10 has started on app stores and steam, and it takes up 30GB on phones and 70GB on PC. I mean, I guess it makes sense since games like P5X, Genshin and COD mobile are essentially console quality games on a phone, but it still feels unnatural to have any single app on a phone take up more than a couple of gigabytes at most.

no one compresses files anymore. MUH CUTSCENES NEEDS TO BE 200000000000P EVEN ON A SCREEN SMALLER THEN MY BRAIN.

This same thing is true for Blue Archive's steam release. Iirc, it's like 10gb on Mobile but the steam release has it at ~20gb which had speculation that the PC release for it was going to use the uncompressed assets for backgrounds and characters portraits. (Which Nexon does have and does actively use in their official promos.) I assume the same is true for other mobile games like P5X and Umamusume.

I don't think they've learned anything from the current ps5 debacle.

A new console, by necessity, comes with graphical upgrades, and that shouldn't be any different for a PS6. The issue for the PS5 is the lack of games, particularly the lack of exclusive games, and I'd want to see significant evidence that something has changed for the PS6 before I thought about buying a new console. Sony doesn't need a few AAA-tier games for next gen, they need a bunch of AA games - a step above indies in terms of graphics and complexity, but not with the cost, development time bloat and sales expectations of AAA games.

I feel bad for people that bought a PS5 at launch thinking it would be totally worth it because there's be like a dozen good exclusives to justify buying that console. I held off on the PS5 because I wasn't interested in their line-up, so there was no point for me to buy a PS5. With the end of its life cycle soon, the only game that I was ever interested in playing was Stellar Blade and now I just got it on PC.

Imagine buying a Gen 9 console.

Shit, Gen 8 wasn't even worth while.

only if your a sony fan. Microsoft can learn hard on the offering from gamepass and Nintendo never stopped giving fans what they wanted. New Mario New Zelda occasionally a Metroid or a wacky spinoff like luigi's mansion.

Seriously even since the PS3 sony just refuses to have games for it's hardware.

>Gamepass

Gay.

>Nintendo

They've been doing their own thing since the Wii that I don't include them in the Generations anymore.

They are the only ones worth getting, though the Switch 2 (no creative name? gay) using emulation for backwards compatibility killed my interest. Still, I expect some worthwhile games on that console.

(I actually got more games on my PS4 than on my Xbox One (fuck your naming, Microsoft), but even then most of those PS4 games were fighting games so I was in practice for FGC locals and tournaments. My XBox One just collected dust.)

I figured after the gamecube release and Captain Falcon becoming more well known because of Smash that we'd get more but I guess not. Also the new Zeldas are very mid. They copied open world wanderlust game design from Witcher 3 and Skyrim without understanding how it worked and all the retarded Nintendrones that never leave their walled garden hail Nintendo as gods because they think Nintendo invented open world games.

Falcons popularity got us the anime. also GX/AX



Skyrim being the originator of anything decent? come on man even Riverbear would make more subtle bait.

A console takes about 4 years to design with modern hardware. I haven't checked around, but the code names are probably already out there and some test samples might already be done. It's probably going to be on the 4nm node. They would have started the design around 2022.

That's literally me this week. Bought a new card, playing low to run games, lol. (It was a really good deal that isn't going to get any cheaper.)

On PC, I can play video games while watching vtubers (and occasionally shitposting here at the same time). I find multitasking like this far more difficult on console, which makes PC gaming my default setup right now.

I didn't say it was the originator, I mentioned Skyrim because the devs explicitly mentioned that game as one of the influences for BOTW.
