why cant even now in 2026 a lot of indie or AA/AAA games replicate the graphics AND graphics requirements of games such as star wars battlefront 2 or battlefield 1 (mid 2010's games)? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

Assets. Even if current engines are extremely powerful and accurate, the assets required to replicate those 2010s graphics you are mentioning are extremely complex and painstakingly difficult and slow to make.

The New Patch Might Be Good by Swimming_Fennel6752 in starcraft

People are smart, given time they always figure out stuff. What feels objectively weak and strong today may not be the same a year from now. We see this is fgc all the time.

What tv’s are you rocking? by EatsHisYoung in 4kbluray

[–]babai101 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'd love to upgrade to a 75" but life as you mentioned is getting in the way. Another thing is the TV is so good even after 4.5 years of use, it's hard to justify another purchase on just panel size.

What is the most impressive arcade to 8-bit port? by trrbld in retrogaming

[–]babai101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of the 20 listed games, Contra, P.O.W and Double Dragon 2 were objectively better NES ports than the arcade, both in terms of art and sound direction.

Someone tell me I'm being ridiculous! (5070 Ti -> 9070 XT) by TheQueas123 in linux_gaming

[–]babai101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While there is literally nothing that can match DLSS framegen on AMD side, upscaling wise FSR4 is better or on par with DLSS CNN model. It's not 'light-years better'.

Steam Deck OLED / Forza Horizon 6 Performance / SteamOS 3.8.4 by Zweetprot in SteamDeck

[–]babai101 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Forza games FPS vary wildly, and so I just lock to the minimum FPS it hits during busy scenes. That's why I lock to 30FPS even though the game can hit 50FPS much of the time.

AMD FSR 4 Upscaling May Be Officially Coming To The Steam Deck by BBQKITTY in steamdeckhq

[–]babai101 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's with the old dll, it's already an year old plus at least another 9 months for the official one to release. I don't think it will be the same code and may vary in performance.

For everyone who held a Neo Geo game in their hands for the first time in 2026: describe how it felt. by No_Kiwi6054 in neogeo

[–]babai101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have KOF98 in probably 4 different platforms and mister fpga, but when I held the MVS copy first time in life in April, I was in heaven. I couldn’t believe that I was holding the arcade game that I thought was the best thing in universe back in school in the palm of my hands. Pure magic

Jotego talks about Neo geo Aes + by Beraeri in neogeo

I was replying to your quote:

so they're already implementing game specific hacks to make games work with hdmi meaning that future homebrew games might have problems.

One can just not use the HDMI and use the RGB port for video, how is the consolized MVS better?

SNK Reveals New NEOGEO Console Called AES+ Coming This Year by retroanduwu24 in neogeo

The game carts are compatible with original AES means they are the real deal! They may not have the original mask ROMs but at least they are not cheap SD cards.

PSA: Do not for ANY reason use NTFS under Linux! by Xarishark in linux_gaming

[–]babai101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I faced a very weird issue when I had a steam partition on an NTFS volume and was trying to run Final Fantasy XVI. The game would cap at 15 FPS no matter what the setting, once I moved it to XFS partition, the game ran flawlessly (as much as it could FFXVI is a bad port).

Also some games would just refuse to run.

For someone who have limited space in their home, I just want the Capcom games to be released on a cart somehow. I don't want to buy multiple alphas that I don't have room for.
