Rules:
- 1: No spam or advertising. This basically means no linking to your own content on blogs, YouTube, Twitch, etc.
- 2: No bigotry or gatekeeping. This should be obvious, but neither of those things will be tolerated. This goes for linked content too; if the site has some heavy "anti-woke" energy, you probably shouldn't be posting it here.
- 3: No untagged game spoilers. If the game was recently released or not released at all yet, use the Spoiler tag (the little ⚠️ button) in the body text, and avoid typing spoilers in the title. It should also be avoided to openly talk about major story spoilers, even in old games.

That is easier and easier after every sale.
You're not alone, my 2060 brother. As my build gets further into it's twilight years I stick almost exclusively to smaller indie titles.
I bought my wife that Harry Potter game a while back and I don't even want to try it. Even on potato mode it's like 20fps in outdoor maps. She doesn't seem to mind the shitty frames, thankfully.
Starfield was maybe one of the last ”modern games” I could run. 1080p and 30fps locked because It couldn’t handle steady 40fps. I havent bought any games made in 2024 or 2025. I mostly just buy older games that are now available -90% or something. My latest purchase was a remaster ed. for a 20 year old game which price was now all time low.
