  Gamers will never be mature or have realistic expectations. They cannot fathom that people are enjoying a thing they don’t like, and they’re very vocal about it, it’s petty, really.

  You claim that people need to be more mature and then disavow any nuance in the same breath. Do you not see how this is a contradiction?

  To attribute this most recent failure to an overabundance of hardware variety is a joke. This issue persists on all Nvidia and Intel cards. Why? Because it’s an oversight pertaining to the one thing they all share in common: their shared interaction with DirectX.

  Let me repeat myself for the people in the back. The number of items they had to account for with this failure is one. One driver.

  Other people in these comments have been mentioning Starfield crashes, some of which corrupt game files apparently if it happens on an exit save (which you can’t opt out of lol). Any sentiment of “it could be worse” just weakens our position as consumers IMO.

  By the standard of being playable, I get that. But I’m not here to mince words. When you zoom out and look at the big picture, this one incorrectly used driver call turns a 3080ti into a 2060. A $1000 difference in performance. Defending Bethesda is just going to make future issues worse and worse.

  If you wouldn’t call having your performance more than halved dogshit, I don’t really give a fuck what you have to say.

  🤦 So you’ll just continue to ignore overwhelming evidence and get defensive. It’s ironic you’d call them special.

  Give it up mate, even the first rudimentary workaround more than doubled the FPS people have been getting. linustechtips.com/…/1530726-starfield-now-runs-tw…

  It’s not just “some guy”, it’s a transition layer developer posting all of his findings on his git: github.com/…/88e4f300cc0b5b6f0880c1233d562cf506b5…

  I’m eagerly awaiting the radio silence from all the people blaming it on obsolete hardware lol

  Overall I like the game though, it has a lot of very entertaining ideas.
