    I think it’s crazy that we always want prettier games when you still have visual glitches like cars disappearing in your rearview mirror, buildings and textures appearing late, screen tearing when you make your POV spin.

    I don’t really need way better graphics, but I’d need these things gone as they take me out of my game way more than no raytracing or a slight fps drop.

    I think these things would be easy to solve if we didn’t always get better graphics.

      Object permanence in a game still has yet to blow my mind. Dwarf fortress does it pretty well (abandoning a mine to ruin only to revisit the walls you etched aeons ago as an adventurer), and minecraft of course, but any game with decent graphics seem to just abandon this altogether. You’re just visiting that world, you’re not making any change

        Well I meant more something like you driving a car fast in an open world and having objects appearing in front of you because everything isn’t loaded yet.

        Or landscape disappearing from your rear view mirror in racing games in order to save some memory.

        These things wouldn’t cost anything to solve if we gave up some graphical fidelity.
