Comment on Starfield, is it getting review bombed?
cottonmon@lemmy.world 9 months agoGame optimization is very inconsitent. When I’m in a smaller space like a dungeon or the Constellation Lodge, it’s actually pretty great and runs smoothly. When I go into the city though, the framerate is terrible. The graphics also become significantly worse.

People also need to stop calling 40fps unplayable. They expect their 3050 to run every game at 120fps on Ultra.

Uh no. People are barely doing 30 fps in the lowest settings with this game

It's reasonable to expect high framerates in 2023. If people want the game to run smooth, there's nothing wrong with that. Hell, doom eternal was a Bethesda game and it looked gorgeous and ran like butter, so we know they can pull it off.

A lot of people also seem to not know that you can’t just spend 80% of your budget on a graphics card and buy whatever CPU you can afford with whatever is left.

I have a 3080 and the game runs noticeably worse in the cities than it does in small rooms. And that's with everything at low-medium and 75% rendering resolution which seems ridiculous. And the game doesn't even look that good.

Bethesda was the publisher of Doom Eternal and had nothing to do with the engine.

Fair point. But still, if the door eternal outs theirs to shame so easily, maybe they should have done some more work on their engine.
