    The experience of playing modern games on a modern AAA “high end” PC is obviously going to be better if you care about things like ray-tracing and high framerates or resolution. You can’t really dispute that.

    But it would be stupid to say you’re wrong if you just want to play that same game on your system if it actually runs. If the game is playable and you’re having fun, you’re doing it correctly.

    I only upgrade when I start to see multiple games a year that just straight up don’t work on my computer.

    Xbox Game Pass for PC is an incredible value, even with the caveat of having to run windows (which sucks so bad). That’s always my top rec for PC gamers.

    Elden Ring is still my number one game. It’s awesome and will run great on your new PC as well as your deck. It’s also got a lot in common with your listed games.

    Grounded is a great game as well! It’s a reasonably difficult survival crafting game (like Subnautica). Same goes for Return to Moria.

    Yeah but people don’t dress up in ugly logo covered clothing and face/body paint and spend millions and millions of dollars to build and fill up specialized stadiums with screaming fans to watch strangers play chess.

    A game is a game. The actual stakes are basically the same when I play Mario Kart on my couch as when a couple dozen dudes in tights smash into each other in the cold at the sports balls stadium. There’s a winner and non-winners and the outcome means basically nothing to the people spending money to watch and wear their overpriced matching fan attire.

    1. Most folks dgaf about certs, and I agree with them. Certs are BS. I only have certs because employers paid for them and in tech (especially security) there’s a LOT of free time if you know what you’re doing. Certs only prove you can pass a test.

    2. Bold of you to assume most companies have intrusion detection systems and that their monitoring isn’t muted half the time.

    3. Findings come from an automated report generated by a scanner that does literally all the work.

    OP post is really not that far off. It’s an easy gig.
