So instead of developers taking time to actually do ray tracing right, ray tracing that people keep saying makes developers development easier and better we're letting them be lazy, produce unoptimized, crappy ray tracing games and relying on proprietary hardware locked software to make it look okay.

Not exactly what is call a great direction for this tech in my opinion and not ready for it to be required in games.

I swear, in the future history books end of 1900 and early 2000 will be see as the era of "joke industry"... and the clowns are all the CEOs. Same shit with VR and their closed ecosystem, instead open source such as Linux, Apache server and HTML open standard that made what internet is today.

Corpo shit: "We will have hardware with this great math/science discover. But it will wallgarden so the hardware will strictly tied to make us money and nobody else"

Common sense: "what about open source? It will serve more people and, thus, more money"

Corpo shit: "BUT I WANT ALL THE MONE"

fancy new tech becomes fad.
