Currently trying to refund the new Indiana Jones game because it's unplayable without raytracing 
. My card isn't even old, it's just 8GB of VRAM is the absolute minimum apparently so my mobile 3060 is now useless. I miss when I used to be able to play new games in 2014 on my shitty AMD card at 20fps, yeah it didn't look great but developers still included a very low graphics option for people like me. Now you need to be upgrading every 2 years to keep up.

I'm pretty sure that's on the way out. Up until PS2/Xbox/Gamecube you bought the game and then you played the game. Then came installing the games on your console and managing disk space and shit. Now there's pro versions and graphical settings in console games. By the time the next generation from now is in place, it's just gonna be like choosing prebuilt PCs and futzing around with graphical settings all the same, except on way more locked hardware.
Yeah I had to return Cyberpunk on my original PS4 because it was unplayable compared to the fancier versions.
