The inverse of this is bad too. When they put tips and tricks or worse, critical information, in the loading screen and it just flickers by. I’ve had to google things more than once and people are like…didn’t you read it on the load screen? Well no, cause I can’t read 2-3 sentences in the 0.2 seconds it was on screen.
The nvme drives are plenty quick. Especially if all the games you play are 5-10 years old…
The older, pre EA buyout Maxis games basically made a joke of this whole phenomenon.
Nearly, or literally all of the loading flavor text was… more or less technobabble and/or tech lingo brained jokes.
Probably the most famous: 'reticulating splines.’
Many other games did similar things as well.
That’s what phone games are for, keep one open and immediately switch to it as soon as there’s a loading screen.
So that’s why I’ve been much happier after upgrading my CPU!
