Probably because of League of Legends. Half of the playerbase is in China.

Chinese government uses Linux though. They have their own homegrown distro called NeoKylin.

Less intersections where cars can crash into pedestrians or other vehicles

Also most corpos in Japan will fire you if you have a side hustle. Even if it just a small YouTube channel. They see a side hustle as not being dedicated to the corporate mission. So many devs don’t even dare to make a game on the side

Japan’s currency is weak as shit. So when you convert that to Euros of course it will look cheap. However Japan’s economy has been experiencing deflation for the last thirty years thus Japanese wages haven’t gone up by much either. While the rest of the world’s economy did experience inflation hence why prices in Japan look cheap but in Japan the buying power stayed the same so to the Japanese games didn’t become cheaper. Also in the West games haven’t been adjusted for inflation for decades until publishers have decided to bump the price by a tenner the last two years. So before the price hike, adjusted for inflation games did become cheaper by the years.

Most of the personnel growth is probably in asset creation. The more realistic you want assets to look the more man hours you need to put in. Even with modern tools it is just gonna take longer to make those assets. Like instead of making a human model by directly manipulating polygons that makes it immediately game ready they first sculpt it in ZBrush then retopo to a lower polygon count to make it game ready. And then add complex facial rigs for cut scenes, high res textures etc.

It’s why companies like Sony hire these studios in China and India where hundreds of people work just making assets.

Okay I use a 50” TV as a monitor. What am I?

I think this applies the most to the average American man rather than the men of the rest of the world.

okay but still don’t waste your diamonds on a whore

Never waste your diamonds on a hoe

Yeah they degrade. Tech has improved a lot and they don’t degrade as fast as screens from the 2000’s but they still degrade. OLED more so than LCD. But if they degrade gradually and evenly you won’t really notice.

Even if you have a high nits screen that laptop is gonna run hot in direct sunlight. Screens don’t exactly like that. Especially something like an OLED. It will degrade the screen faster.

i want burger. I don’t want to go out the door and talk to strangers today. I can use burger app. I don’t want strangers at my doorstep. No burger for me.

Maybe we can abuse religious doctrine that teaches about loving a neighbor or something.

Probably not meshes since it is way too expensive. But these guys write the GPU drivers, so they of course have access to the different frame buffers and textures buffers and light source data. So just from depth and normal map data you can get a good representation of geometry. Like deferred rendering lights the scene with the data in the G-Buffer, which is 2D, not geometry.
