What was your first videogame that made you say "Ok, I need to play this game properly: I need to upgrade my specs"? (lemmy.ca)

Going back to your beginnings in PC gaming: the first game you played and loved, but the frame rate and resolution weren't ideal. Your first "I need/want to upgrade my specs" basically.

Morrowind, specifically the Tribunal expansion, and then I played it anyways at like 10fps and fucking loved it lol

Witcher 3. I played the first two on my old laptop but waited to upgrade for that one.

Metro 2033. I used to play it on my Dad's slightly more powerful machine until I could upgrade my machine. One of the best examples of art direction and great graphics being utilized together. Last Light looks like a PS4 game no matter what platform you play it on. Easily one of the best looking games ever.

Full Throttle.

Had a 386 and the game required a 486 so I bought a Cyrix 386 to 486 replacement. Worked decently well.
