I'm Glad That RAM Prices Are Crazy - Lemmy.World

Hopefully this will cause the software and game development industry to optimize their programs as intensly as they did 30 years ago. I assume that upper management types have largely forgotten the value of having a quality product, and that subsequently the time allowed for QA and optimization has shrunk in order to ship the product quicker. The ease of patching has made it worse. Hoping to see some more competent coding in the future.

That’s definitely an issue and it’s becoming worse. But I don’t think rising RAM prices will solve it. More likely there will be an even larger split between indie and AAA games and some users will just permanently lose access to AAA because they can’t afford the hardware anymore.

Don't worry you can rent access to CoD for 40USD/mo on the cloud
