Should they wait to make improvements until your D&D game needs the extra processing power… or maybe these advancements they are talking about will be used to do advanced astrophysics and environmental calculations that, yes believe it or not, need more processing power and less power consumption than today’s top of the line processors can provide? The hurry is improving technology to meet actual scientific needs, not whether the graphics look killer on your paladin with that level 10 sword…
