Software rendering is back on the menu folks
What does this mean?
Using CPU to render graphics as we did back in the day when graphics accelerators were a luxury. Seems we are going back to that
Oh that rings a bell now. Some games I remember you could switch between software and OpenGL or something
Yup, Tomb Raider 1 comes to mind. I actually really like the software rendering look. Crunchy pixelated goodness.
When everything is not so high-def, your mind starts filling in the gaps, at least in my experience. Makes games more memorable to me that way.
I think half life had this too. I think I remember flipping between this in counter strike not knowing what was better or worse back then lol.
