@DANKCHAINS @jakebenbow DLSS and upscaling already became a crutch that has negatively affected how well games are optimised. Having it also now affect what the end product looks like, is not what I want out of gaming. I would much rather play games on native resolutions without upscaling.

@Snakesan @ThePrimeagen Before the last bit, I was about to say, league is how you end up gaining anger issues 😅

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler Lil bro went on a rant and blocked me, while accusing Blizzard of flat out fraud regarding the server blades. Nice.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler They literally say on the plaque that it housed the entire realm. Your argument the whole time has been that packaging a realm separately is somehow not possible and not done.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler So, we are talking about server instances and you defend it with local dungeon instances on the same hardware... Way to go..

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler You provided an example of local memory manipulation and threading, in defense of distribution...

I'd say that is confused.
And you are also ignoring the fact that wow itself had realms packed on single pieces of hardware.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler Oh no worries. You've clearly shown that you are mixing up "dungeon instances", "server instances" and "thread instances". Which are not even remotely related.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler Looks pretty singular piece of hardware for a realm in my opinion..

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler They even auctioned the specific pieces of hardware that held single realms...

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler The individual realms have not historically been distributed. The people on a specific realm, exist on the same hardware, regardless of their physical location on the map.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler So exactly like the game has worked forever.

Like you said, people in stormwind are not in a different server instance from the player in orgrimmar.

It is a single instance of the authoritative gameplay server, known as a "realm" in wow terms.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler Not what I described. Do not confuse the mmo term "dungeon instance" with what "instance" means in server architecture.

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler The purpose of the initiative was to be an initiative, not to specify law. The role of citizens initiatives is not to define law, it is to point lawmakers in the direction of a perceived issue.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler I am talking from the perspective of original architectures that didn't have location based layers.

Where if every person on the realm decided to go to booty bay simultaneously, it would grind the server to a halt as every player would be in booty bay.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler Find me a legal filing by SKG that says that. I have been talking specifically about what was requested by SKG

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler I have quoted you the exact objective of SKG, that is a single source. Whatever you imagine beyond that is all your own making.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler Single instance of the gameplay server can do that. Again, that is possible on private servers, that run on consumer hardware.

Do not confuse server instance with "instanced gameplay location". We have been talking about the former, not the latter.

[Mehto @mehto_dev]

@Berthold_Skull @Sathclark @VinceP1974Chi @thomasmahler Again arguing against something no one has requested.
