All they had to do was throw it in Early Access while they fixed it. The reviews would likely be stellar in that case. Releasing it fully in this state just feels like some corporate BS. Disappointed in dev and publisher, and they keep making it worse with their weird excuses.

"Built with modern hardware in mind", homie this shit ain't even running right on a 4090. And 30fps target? Idk what they're smoking.

Runs fine for me. Reduced some settings. It's a game built for the best right now, and for the future. Lot of potential.

Almost every game has potential.

I remember thinking that surely Duke Nukem Forever would turn out awesome once it's finally finished. After seeing the reception I just decided it wasn't worth checking out.

From what streamers have said, turn off V-Sync and all of the depth of field options and your FPS should vastly improve.

I am so down for a sequel of this game and while it looks good the only thing making me hesitate are the performance issues. I'm tempted to just play the first one more and even pick up a DLC I want for that instead of putting the cash to this.

This is the number one reason I haven't bothered with Linux.

I literally only use my PC for gaming.

[–] bitsplease@lemmy.ml 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah gaming on linux has gotten loads better - but it's still definitely not quite there as a main gaming platform. Which is frustrating, because I vastly prefer linux as a desktop experience (and obviously for software development), but I just can't ditch my windows PC for gaming yet.

Hopefully someday soon

I haven't touched a game below Overwhelmingly Positive in years at this point

And here I am, glad I got Sea of Stars for a slight discount on launch. Such a charming game for ~$30.

[–] JCreazy@midwest.social 4 points 1 year ago

For a second I was thinking you were talking about the King Kong game.

This but when it unexpectedly goes early access after following for years.

[–] GreenMario@lemm.ee 3 points 1 year ago

Me and X: Rebirth. Looking forward to it for years and it comes out as an abomination.

5 years later I pick up the game on a deep deep sale and I try to dock and the physics gets screwy and immediately refund it. This was after 4 expansions and several patches to make it version 4.something.

Also Payday 3. Though the server issues have been fixed.
