This. By far the worst part of Surface is 3D. Each time they show the improvements in the latest Intel range I get excited and hope finally I can just impulse buy a new game, but even if in theory the chip could handle it, the industry gives the middle finger to anything not AMD or Nvidia, to the point some recent games just refuse to start up at all.

Now I check https://old.reddit.com/r/SurfaceGaming/ before buying anything, and the results are always disappointing. I don't know whether to blame the game developers or Intel, because there are games that run perfectly fine in reduced quality, but it's such a crapshoot.
