Dude, you really don't have really good reading comprehension.
Or you aren't very good at providing an explanation.
It's quite obviously the case when you are unable to understand a post unless the premises are written distingtively. This is quite obvious when you removed the first sentence, which is entirely relavent.
Oh, great, MORE vague unsubstantiated stuff from you! Exactly how should ANYONE care what your past experience is? The only thing in there is "I've upgraded every two years, don't do it so often anymore". So, my thinking goes "Uh, great, if you want to, save your money - now let's get on to your OBJECTIVE assertions regarding the platform and ignore stuff about your life****that I have no reason to even care about". Which I did. :|
This is further the case when you franticly somehow translate this post to mean: "PC gaming library is becoming unsatisfactory compared to its competition". Where the hell do you even draw that conclusion from, unless you are just a paranoid fanboy? Competition has nothing to do with what was stated. What is being compared is the past and present state of PC gaming. You're being paranoid.
The mention of multiplatforms is not an implication of such a thing? Yeah, right. If you suggest a cup is empty, then I don't think I'm supposed to believe you're talking about Dubya Bush's skull.
The reason the last sentence of the original post makes no sense to you, is the combiation of the above.
Yes, I did further try to make you understand what was being said. Yet once again, you are selectively missing key words. Let's take the quote again: "Then, you say that that was your point all along.... quoted: "upgrading your PC often has become less fruitful over the past few years. Not too long ago, if you upgraded every two years, you would see a noticeable improvement in graphical fidelity and quality. This is not the case anymore. A lot less developers are taking advantage of newer hardware, and attempting to push the envelope."
First of all, your examples of improvement this year are purely opinion that I disagree with. However, you secondly chose to ignore that I have quality being a compared with quantity at the same time. Do you know what a union is? A + B. Even if you prove A, you did not prove B in conjunction.
What? Here's about the only thing I can find that even shows your so-called "I have quality being compared with quantity at the same time" - "Of course, this probably means I may move to upgrading every 3 years or 4 years. However, even then, it seems that I am now better of just getting the 'last gen' graphic cards, instead of getting the latest and greatest. Quite frankly, because the extra tech isn't being utilized albeit a few titles." There's no "comparison" of "quantity" and "quality" at the same time. I'm the ONLY ONE who's bothered to provide examples of games here.
-------------------------
Many other people in this thread where able to comprehend what my post said. You for whatever reason could not. Maybe it's your fanboyism, or you aren't very good at reading posts written in English. If you truely need further clarification to understand the original post, and are unable to do so by rereading the original post with you fanboy glasses, then ask. Otherwise, I am not going to waste my time with one person, when others have shown already that the post makes perfect sense.
Please quote this so-called "clarification" posts for me. There's TheDuffman fella who says that "the games aren't pushing the technological envelope anymore" on page 2.... so.... I fail to see how mentioning the general upturn in graphics quality over the past few years is at all irrevelant to that assertion. :|
Unless you're saying that the Duffman didn't get it. Oh, and considering my entire post was loaded by asking you to clarify, why exactly would you say "If you truely need further clarification to understand the original post, and are unable to do so by rereading the original post with you fanboy glasses"? Did I not make myself clear that you should tell me everything you meant? Seems like I'm not the illiterate one here.
Here is a hint: The original post has everything to do with upgrading more scarcey, rather then upgrading every 2 years.
I've already posted a comment or two about your idea of "upgrading every 3-4 years", and there's no response. Why should I keep talking about it?
Here is another hint: I'm a PC gamer
Oh, who's strawmanning now? Where have I ever even made a comment about what kind of systems you used? :roll: Right, never.
It's irrevelant whether or not you have experience with the system anyway, you still have failed to provide ANY substantation for your assertions about the so-called "dwindling" graphical improvement of the system. Then you've said for three damn posts straight that I'm illiterate, and when I ask you to explain what your original point was (still waiting on it, by the way), you reply with yet ANOTHER insult.
Of course, since you're so adamantly trying not to clarify anything, I would assume you don't actually have much of a point... in which case, you could have blogged this, since SW is a discussion board. Flinging insults at anyone who disagrees doesn't constitute discussion by any sense of the word, and all you can expect is that the guy will show you an equal amount of vocal respect.

Hmmm..., it seem like the topic creator is forgetting something he wrote on page four:
And look what he posted just a teeny bit later...
Oh, my, LOOK at that contradiction. Make up your mind, TC - you can't say people understand you just so you don't have to explain yourself, and you can't say that people don't understand you because they're illiterate. Then again, all you've shown so far is that you like to toss insults at me.
