I guess you are unlikely to find a complete map due to security (the military kind, not annoying teens) concerns.

If it comes to that point for video games, I don’t really think it matters much. If AI is used or not since it would be a part of any normal working procedure.

If you insist.

It’s consistently one of the most played games on steam.

112 thousand are playing it right now, making it the 9th most currently played game.

Dota 2 which is almost always the most or second most played game was also released in 2013

Good thing that ray tracing is very rarely required.

Of course some games are gonna be ahead of others on dropping conventional lightning. That’s just life sometimes.

The digital foundry video explains better than I can why the dev cost is lower with ray tracing only.

Ray tracing really is the future. Instead of doing a bunch of tricks to make things look good all lightning is just simulated using ray tracing.

I remember when metro exodus enhanced edition came out and they explained that when they remade the game for RTX only, they could remove a lot of workarounds like invisible lights. And actually just light the scenes with actual light from bulbs or the sun and it just looked great.

IMO we have to move someday to the newer technology. Whenever that’s today or not, I don’t know. But it really is the future. Historically it also isn’t unusual at all that someone had to get new hardware to play new games. It’s just that it was stagnated for a while.

Edit: pretty sure it was this video from digital foundry: https://youtu.be/NbpZCSf4_Yk?t=1376

I forgot about Cemu. Not sure about dolphin but if Nintendo fucked up their emulation security with the Wii U and Switch it seems likely if they fucked up the Wii as well.

Isn’t the switch the only in production console that you can emulate and hasn’t it been like that for a long time?

Yeah. They have always done extended support like this.
