Would be amazing if windows did what steam deck does in shutting off the OS during gaming mode.

That’s fair, I think fallout 4 scared me lol. That shit barely ran even on 1080p

Oh wisest spender of 60 dollars, you are the light. How will I ever decide to expend that amount over the next 24+ months. Lmao. Get your goofy ass on

Thank you!! I will check on that tonight

Damn that sounds amazing. I’ll have to check out some WiFi 6 routers — I thought I was up to date but clearly not! Thank you for the info

1080p, I’ve been too scared to upgrade to a 1440p monitor on the current rig ):

I had those downtown F4 dips too, even at 1080. This game is far from that, it feels much more polished.

I can’t even play F76 to this day without super annoying frame dips

Ya, that’s not the argument you think it is, lol

Can I ask what your experiences are with streaming to the deck? I have a 5ghz router and still run into latency issues. Do you get good results, and if so what kinda router are you using?

I agree and it sucks. At least on Reddit you could generally avoid pointlessly negative people, whereas here it feels like that’s the majority of comments. I hope it changes into actual conversations at some point

I think your comment is totally fair, you actually tried the game and came to the opinion. I’m more so confused on the zero gameplay but I know it sucks comments.

Higher res and more details in the textures. Faces don’t look like they’re one flat texture with the npcs skin tone, for example.

The look of npcs, items, roads, rocks, hills, etc. is way better than even F4/F76.

I was hoping that would be a good thing, but yeah… feels like a site-wide echo chamber almost lol

That’s amazing. I hope I have the same luck on the deck. Got a long weekend away from home and I’m itching to playing more.

The Lemmy community desperately needs a mix of more people lol, how are most of these comments “I haven’t played but it sucks” 😂

I’m on a 3070, 10700k, 32GB ram, and it runs really well at 1080p. I’m hoping the steam deck can keep up decently as well

Played for 3 hours yesterday on a 3070, 10700k, 32GB ram. Game runs and looks incredible on high/ultra settings. I haven’t gotten far into the story, but the beginning gets into the action very fast like Skyrim.

The animations and textures make npcs feel more alive than fallout. I made it to the first city area and it looks amazing. It looks like mirrors edge type city in space

Enjoy waiting!

The puritans and the well akshually people, this place will be alright

To me it’s hilarious. Who knew Lemmy would be filled with so many puritans

Fs in chat

The RPG aspect of it is exactly what brought it home for me as well! It is an insane RPG so far. The world feels so alive given how much you can fuck it up if you really wanted to.

The turn-based combat also isn’t as bad as I conjured up in my mind. I was kinda imaging the really old FF-style where enemies appear out of nowhere and you basically start a pokemon-style battle. It’s much different than that, and gets really intense when there’s a ton of enemies and you’re trying to make sure your group of 4 doesn’t get destroyed. Good luck!!

I’ve never played BG, DnD, and don’t really like turn based combat. This game has been incredible so far. It’s the first game in a long time where I’m thinking about it at work and excited to come home and play.
