Thanks for reminding me about why I have been exclusively playing older games or games from my backlog. Seriously with the prices of video games it's not worth it to buy them anymore let alone have the hardware to even play them. PC gaming sounds like a nightmare where you have to do all this crazy nonsense just to play some games at slightly better performance or if you are poor like me. I have long since stopped at pirating normal PC games though personally and have been pirating ROMs instead for emulators or buying from GOG. Much easier and you have like 4 decades worth of content just to play through. I say just let the modern gaming industry rot and toil. Play some Indie games instead like Deltarune or Silksong or I am your beast. Do anything but not support this dumb market of triple A games where they cost almost a hundred dollars now and require super computers hooked up to your actual computer to run.
