Discussion Should developers stop making games that require 5090 for max settings now that the card is clearly not for gamers and is accessible to 0.1% of community?

I get that the games need better hardware to dun better, but who are they really making the game for if you need a 6000$ GPU at this point

Running native is just a way to justify how much people spent on cards at this point lol.

A few years ago it was largely just AMD cope bc they had crap upscaling.

Now it's good for everyone.

I said what I said.

I have a 5090 and I always run DLSS Quality. Can’t tell the difference and it gives me extremely high frames

4080 so less than half your performance probably, but same. The thing is I cant run native if I wanted to at 4k in most modern games with settings maxed lol.

Although PT titles probably hammer even a 5090 hard
