Gamers Lose It After 007 First Light Demands Hardware That Doesn’t Exist in System Requirements: 'Remember When Games Were Optimized?'
-
In an effort to future-proof the game, they present-faulted it.
-
Huh. So if games are just horribly optimized and hardware costs a fortune, it will push more people to cloud/streaming their games. The corporations just keep winning. What a wonderful timeline we live in.

> As expected, the i5-9500K doesn’t even exist, and despite recommending 12 GB of VRAM (video RAM), the publishers also recommended an RTX 3060 Ti, which strictly came with only 8 GB of VRAM. Not to mention the game also required 8 GB of VRAM at a minimum, but then also required a GTX 1660, which only has 6 GB of VRAM.Something tells me some marketing putz had Gen AI do this for them.

Expect more titles to do this in order to push game streaming as a service. They have to do something with so that useless AI infrastructure.
-
That seems the most likely.
-
 Link complains about adblock.
-
Nobody loses it, people are just mocking companies out of touch with reality. A game that I can't play releases? Who gives a fuck? I have hundreds of other games to play

FWIW, Amazon bought the James Bond IP last year (and also owns MGM Studios as of 2022). The relationship between this game and Amazon may be nothing more than that.

What a wonderful timeline we live in.Yep its pretty gross. Also why they love the ai bubble. They can buy up all the hardware and price us all out. I foresee in 10 years the majority of homes not having a computer at all or a dumb terminal connected to Amazon. Hell it probably already is that way

It’s ok. DLSS will pick up the slack. /s

Embedded Tweet: https://xcancel.com/007GameIOI/status/2008599546708787297 Also:  Probably not much of a stretch to expect a Amazon Luna (streaming) version of that game. "Too hardware hungry for you? No problem, just sign up to our game streaming service."
-
I wouldn't take it seriously. 1660 has 6gb while they list 8 as the min and the 3060ti has 8gb and they say recommended needs 12. Probably AI generated crap. Also, if it's going to be based on the hitman 3 engine, it'll run really well on most hardware. Hitman 3 Recommended Requirements - CPU: Intel CPU Core i7 4790 4 GHz - RAM: 16 GB - VIDEO CARD: Nvidia GPU GeForce GTX 1070 / AMD GPU Radeon RX Vega 56 8GB - DEDICATED VIDEO RAM: 8192 MB An upgraded engine with RT will probably mean at least 3600/3060 for 1080/60.
