  • I’m just saying in certain games setting your custom resolution could be considered cheating.

    For example in competitive first person shooters, if you play on a 16:9 monitor, and you set the resolution to be a ratio much, much wider than your monitor, you will see all the way around the player in 360°. This is how graphics projection math works. Or it did when I last dabbled in writing a graphics engine.

    So I can understand some games not allowing certain odd ratios and FOVs in combination.

    Otherwise I agree, of course we should be able to set a resolution that matches our monitors that we have. 😊👍










  • Hmm, I changed the settings in my Lemmy client to see split votes (down and up votes), and there’s no down votes, but also no up votes, as if you perhaps removed your own up vote from your posts. 😅

    Someone down voted my comment though for some reason. Gosh. I don’t mind the votes, I just want to have a discussion… That’s why we’re here, isn’t it. At least why I’m here.

    I mean I agree with you on all points, it’s just that for this game bundle in particular, the value I’m getting personally is easily worth $83 or $50 or whatever it’s available for.

    Normally I would never ever pay for a game more than $20 or so. But if it’s for my kids and I to create memories, the price limit goes up. 😬

    😛

    It’s all relative. To me, these experiences I listed are worth that money to me. But I can understand that people without kids or perhaps means to but games don’t think it’s worth that much at all, especially if they are too young for the nostalgia. I think $100 is at the limit of what this should cost for me personally. Anything over is too much even for me.
