its wild that we haven't seen any PC developer really push tech like this since Crytek. imagine the shyt they could do nowadays if they had the budget & time to really push modern PC's to the limit :wtf:

So many people pirated the first game they were forced to 'consolize' the sequels in hopes of getting more sales. Gameplay was compromised. Graphics were compromised. EA treated those brehs (who made the game) like shyt. They were really talented people working at Crytek.

I wonder if my PC can run it now
Newer PCs still struggle with crisis because hardware technology ended up going in a different direction than what crytek expected when they optimized the game.

GOAT FPS. Beat that shyt like at least 10 times. Love the overworld gameplay.
That’s definitely what the new ones missed. Idk why they couldn’t understand that console-izing the game b*stardized it in the process.

I dunno if I believe the pirating bit. The Witcher and others seemed to have success being initially PC only, and came over from that platform with the core intact. What is more likely is your second point, EA bytch asses

Crysis 3 is still probably the best looking PC game out. They even modeled individual blades of grass :wow:

The CryEngine still looks good. The Rift has a lot of Crytek VR exclusives that look amazing.

shyt, Ryse looks goddamn amazing on PC (but, yeah, the game sucks).

I’m trying to think of a better looking engine than Crytek’s CryEngine, and I can’t think of one :jbhmm:
