We do, indeed, still have mirrors.
Infinitely better mirrors than anything on the wii, even.

You're neglecting that we need like 30x the processing power to do the damned same thing as 2007 games...That's not good! It's inefficient, and frankly gluttonous.
Not to mention as raytracing exclusive you can't do it with say, a 1080ti, which absolutely could manage mirrors in it's day.

Except it is literally nothing like the games in 2007. Because it actually works well.
And no, no 1080tis could not, in fact, handle proper mirrors.
That's weird, because Red Faction back in like 2001 had functioning mirrors and that was well before the 1080Ti
Must've been magic! Alchemy! Lmao.
Except it isn't. It is a game where you can leverage and build your character the way you want. With so many options for one to take, none are 100 percent set in stone.
It isn't just shooting crackheads. It's sneaking through buildings finding intel or saving people. It's having to pacify a cyberpsycho person, while they are trying to kill you.
Having to talk to cars to get them to return home
so much more then what you said.
have you ever actually played it?
Except the mirrors then are doffrent from tje mirrors now. From what I understand it wasn't a reflection they used because of how complicated that was back then.
But then again that's Vyors speciality
I've beaten it twice, both runs were comically boring and underwhelming. Cyberpunk is the embodiment of a supercar with a fabulous bodykit and rocking an inline 4 cylinder with 50 horses behind it.
Lets not beat around the bush here.
A game rocking a fucking Voodoo card could manage mirrors while games intended for cards with tens of times the processing power cannot handle mirrors, because of vague and continuously altering reasons.
It's an embarrassment to the medium as a whole and it's really quite sad that people defend it. Imagine if in 2024 we found ourselves unable to build paintbrushes anymore. "Oh well we can do it with photoshop, who needs REAL paintbrushes anyways! A real artist needs a 1000$ computer, who wants to settle for a 10 dollar paintbrush set?"
Friend of mine posted this in relation to the thread, exactly my fucking point. XD Normies will slurp up slop that would be considered a farce back in the day.
Just had an epiphany.
ID software really, REALLY dropped the ball with Doom 3's title.
It should've been called 3Doom.

Not sure if anybody here has played it before, but Steel Division 2 is a really fucking good RTS game.
Has more DLC than modern people have braincells, but you can just pick whatever one has a particular division you like and ignore the others. Or find em on discount.
It's a good blend of gameplay and realism, units have proper penetration/armor values, artillery has huge range, infantry can be bastards if they're dug-in a forest or city.
Plus there's just so, fucking, many, units.
Oh Starcraft 2 has Marines as infantry? You ain't got shit on Steel Division. Just off the top of my head. Without consulting google/wiki.
Panzergrenadiers.
Stosstruppen.
Pioneers.
Avtomatchiki.
Basic Rifles.
Ersatztruppen.
Strafniki.
Saperi.
Volksturm.
Sicherungs.
Walkure.
Falschirmjager Jager.
And I think ingame there's over 10x that diversity of infantry alone, it's nuts!
The fucking game has more tank units than SC2 has units in total! And their differences actually fucking matter instead of just being HP/Damage modifiers!

Pretty darn much, yep! ;D
But that makes it play quite a lot differently, no helicopters, guided munitions, etc.
But you do get more variation in other aspects because of it.
Iirc it is literally made by the wargame developers.
So it is just world war 2 wargame

Been binging more Stellaris lately, probably my favorite Paradox game because of just how many stupid sci fi tropes are in it.
I managed to create a species that has all three 'auto-mod' traits.
For context species have traits like "Industrious: +10% engineering research" "Agrarian: 10% farming output" and so on.
Later in the game you unlock a couple of traits that enable each individual to alter their trait to best fit the job they're doing. Your species can be good at science, farming, mining AND generator electricity at the same time.
There's three such traits that do this, one is with a special origin called overtuned where you get super good traits but it eats away the lifespan of your leaders. The other two are unlocked later.
Taking the overtuned trait with the overtuned origin, then becoming a cyborg lets you get the cyborg trait as well, then once you get the cyborg trait you'll gain enough biological enhancement points to get the organic version additionally!
Three fucking traits which best-suit the jobs your population is doing is fucking bonkers.

Satire is funny when people understand and remember it's satire. I think it's awfully boring when people take it seriously or oversaturate it.
Like...40k has 'humanity fuck yeah!' in it as well, but it's not JUST humanity fuck yeah moments. There's space elves, space communists, space bugs, space mushrooms. In that respect I think it's way more neat than Helldivers...
Well, Stalker 2 plays and looks like ass for the requirements it needs.
That's great, another one of my beloved series going down the shitter thanks to the competency crisis and modern politics. X_X
Unreal Engine 5 is a developer noobtrap.

It runs just like the first game

So, kindly don't start a typewriting war y'all.
On the subject of STALKER 2 requirements...they are a tad bit too much and I am probably going to play the game WHEN I have the money to purchase a more powerful laptop (I need space and also it's much easier to resell a laptop than a beast of a FIXED gaming computer) because the atmosphere, lore and mechanics of the game are top-notch BUT the fact that it needs 32 GB RAMS to be played in its RECOMMENDED STATE makes me immediately return my attention to my over 300/400 games backlog.
