This question was inspired by my hatred of Temporal Anti-Aliasing which, in many games nowadays, is poorly used as a performance bandaid. On lower resolutions it will smudge and blur the image and certain bad cases of TAA will cause visible ghosting.

Yet in spite of all this, certain games won’t let you turn it off or have hair/fur/foliage look like dogshit without it so sometimes I still use it.

    Amazon basically.

    Some things are near impossible to get in a reasonable time frame, or get shipped from China anyway if i get them at the source.

      Also returns aren’t a maze of bullshit and return fees like many other online sites.

        Amazon sucks but their return/refund policies are amazing. I pretty much never have to worry about a lost or missing package.

          Exactly. Amazon alternatives in India aren’t great when it comes to returns and refunds.

      Even if I’m going to buy the thing from a different ruthless conglomerate, I often check Amazon just to look at more reviews first.

      I manage to live without Amazon. I just pretend it doesn’t exist, I don’t know if it’s cheaper or quicker on Amazon as I don’t see it (I use a search engine that can block results). It’s also probably other aspects of my life that also make it possible, spare money, spare time, no kids, live in a city.
