    "The assumption that ‘60Hz should be enough for anyone’ also, of course, is no longer valid. 144Hz monitors are very popular, G-SYNC is sort of a thing (even though nobody I know understands how to properly render on a G-Sync monitor) and who knows what is going to happen in the future."

    "Probably not. A 2D game is pretty hard to make HDR and have it be viewable."
