What I was thinking... imagine when it will come to do the actual game.

That's true, but as we have seen several times a huge world isn't enough, you also have to put something interesting in it. Anyway I don't want to seem a Negative Nancy, it's incredible that this engine can create such a huge world without requiring hundreds of GBs.

So you're telling me I did good staying on AM4 and DDR4

For a while now games are sold without a lot of optimization, expecting the customers to just buy more powerful hardware.

9060 XT, for the same reason. My GTX1060 is fine for what I'm I playing right now, but I guess I, too, am a victim of F.O.M.O. (Fear Of Massive Overpricing).

But 'AI' is the cool word of the moment! All the AI peddlers say so in their sale pitches!

Well it's a phrase for those of "not-PhD" level.

You could also call them moneyfobes, cause they sure like to throw money away for negligible differences in sound quality. I recently had to change my earphones, and it was a real odyssey cause in lots of guides the "low end" started with at least a couple zeros.

And probably a visit from the Avengers.

 

European here. I'm pretty content with my setup (Ryzen5 3600XT, 16GB RAM, GTX 1060... I play in 1080p) for the games I'm playing at the moment, and I don't plan on playing many AAAA games in the future. BUT. With the recent tariffs flying around, China denying rare earths, etc etc I fear we might see an increase in hardware prices like we had with covid, so I was thinking on upgrading at least CPU+VGA; more than FOMO let's say is Fear Of Being Overpriced. What do you think, should I upgrade now that things looks a little more relaxed? Will the whole mess involve only the USA or everyone cause globalization?
