| LudicrousSpeed said: Yeah, I said yowza @ standard supported super sampling, because that’s great tech. I also followed that sentence by saying SS was not a big draw for me, but feel free to continue ignoring that to benefit your agenda/argument. My only advice for you here is to learn to apply context to discussions. That and maybe common sense. If I say I don’t care about resolution when it comes to something like a discussion about a 1080p game versus a 900p game, that doesn’t mean I don’t care about resolution at all. I don’t care about resolution in that scenario, but at the same time if the Scorpio had a max resolution of 480p, that would be an issue for me :) And no, there’s been no change of “preference”. I still prefer frame rate and things like draw distance, effects, textures, etc over resolution. Thankfully the Scorpio improves everything. Of course, you’re also talking to someone who prefers the Xbox controller, network, and Ui, so naturally I am going to be a lot more excited for an upgrade to that platform as opposed to one I own but barely use, like the PS4. And lastly, coming from the launch Xbone, the Scorpio simply represents a much larger power jump than I would get going from my PS4 to a Pro. Obviously because the Xbone is weaker than the PS4, and the Scorpio is more powerful than the Pro. lol @ accusation. I would call it more of an observation. I just laughed then all off and ignored them. |
I'm aware of the follow on, but given the discussion i thought it an amusing inclusion.
Hmm, good point. I wasn't previously aware that context and common sense exist, so let's have a go with those: The thread in question was asking users if 720p was acceptable to them. You replied, and this is a full and exact quote:
| LudicrousSpeed said: Could not care less about resolution. If I did, I'd game on my PC more where everything can be 1080p+ in resolution and 60fps+. My most played game this gen with almost 700 hours is Titanfall... I couldn't tell you its resolution. |
This was your first comment in the thread and it was unprompted, so there's no need to worry about the context of an ongoing discussion. From the topic we can immediately say that your lack of care for resolution is already present by 720p, and you then double down on that by extending the range of your lack of care to not only 1080p but resolutions past it. The 'past it' range isn't specifically defined (though i can think of only 2 reasonable end points), so it's possible that you might have a point where you suddenly start valuing an increase in pixels, but it'd have to be quite arbitrary (and by extension confusing) given the size of the jump this comment already directly values at zero. You then highlight the earnestness of your position with your TF example (it's 792p/40-60fps btw, if you happen to now be curious), which is helpful.
Maybe you actually do care about resolution and just very (veeery) poorly articulated yourself here, we're all occasionally guilty of that, but to quote you again from later in that same thread:

So given the discrepancies in "what you have posted", i once again conclude that my confusion is justified.
As a side note, i appreciate the variety of your 'observations'. Normally people just opt for one and stick with it, but so far we've hit on my mass investment in the fishing industry, my lack of common sense, inability to judge context, my devious agenda pushing, and my loltastic moderation style. I'm rarely painted as such a colourful figure 
Edit: 'that you lack of..' -> 'that your lack of..'
