The Outer Worlds sequel does not play particularly well with ray tracing turned off, either.

It’s a new day, and another badly-optimized AAA Unreal Engine 5 game has hit store shelves. A couple of YouTubers, including Daniel Owen, have discovered serious performance problems in The Outer Worlds 2 that almost mirror Borderlands 4’s atrocious launch day performance. One of the most problematic graphics settings is the game’s ray tracing mode, which prevents even AMD’s Ryzen 7 9800X3D gaming champ from achieving 60 FPS at resolutions well under 1080p.

I remember texture mapped graphics on a 6502.

I was so excited when I finally had a machine that could run Crysis at full graphics settings.
