Wasulfunir you realize it's uncompatible to say something like a middleware is easier to use and close to metal right? The abstraction from DirectX already puts one layer and make it a little less efficient than not having DX

? Every API is an abstraction layer. No matter if you call it DX, GNM, GNMX or Vulkan so either you say that every console has this disadvantage or no console has that.

 

From what we learnt from ND, the Development environment of PS3 allowed for basically direct coding instead of using middleware
