GB : It’s a known fact that RAGE runs at 60fps. You could probably say that RAGE was one hell of a technical achievement on consoles, considering it ran at 60 fps, although, that framerate is actually hard to achieve on consoles, says Carmack.
businessinsider writes: "His exit came on Friday, the people said. Carmack, who has been openly critical of Meta's advancements in AR and VR, core to its metaverse ambitions, posted to the company's internal Workplace forum about his decision to leave."
I hope he starts up another new company and can get another new game engine on the market too.
He is like: "Im done with F#@#$%NG nonsense, pff Metaverse da funk I was thinking!!, Im out!! :D"
Yeah he put a smile in his face too in the end.
I hope he goes back to traditional games.
VR gaming is a flop and the Metaverse has (fortunately) completely failed to take off.
One of if not, the best game engine developer in the world. I hope he gets back into developing game engines.
They need to stick VR back in RnD departments everywhere that or let the porn industry lead the way like everything else that's been introduced then brought to mass market after porn made it a thing lmfao
Legendary developer John Carmack reacted to the acquisition of Bethesda and ID Software's parent company ZeniMax Media by Microsoft:
"Great! I think Microsoft has been a good parent company for gaming IPs, and they don’t have a grudge against me, so maybe I will be able to re engage with some of my old titles."
This is so annoying that this much welcomed news comes AFTER Facebook deleted their VR for everyone not gullible enough to give away their whole privacy for pennies.
I would be so happy if this news happened a few months ago. Now I couldn't care less.

If you've got time in your life for a new gaming experience, the following bargain basement titles are available for your cut-price purchasing between 4th-10th August 2020."
Hard, but not impossible. The Ratchet and Clank series is a great example of games that run in 60fps and look awesome.
I would have rather had 30fps and much less texture pop-in than the unplayable mess it turned out to be. Way too distracting when every time you turn, you catch the textures reloading.
It does run at 60fps but I would rather if it ran at 30fps and had no texture popin
I can't wait till next-gen when all games run at native 1080p 60FPS :D
I'm really beginning to dislike John Carmack. I don't care what he's done in the past, you can't make bold claims and deliberately controversial statements like he does every single time he gets interviewed.
Especially when your latest game is an action RPG that's too short and dumbed-down to be an RPG and too monotonous and repetitive to be an action game.
It would be like the developers of Final Fantasy XIII telling people 'the right way' to make RPGs. Even though some individuals on that team were involved with FFVII and FFX, their words simply don't carry any weight any more, and neither do Carmack's.
