    I have an i9 9900k and a 4070ti and can play it butter smooth max settings in 4k 100% rendering. The CPU is definitely starting to show its age, but I haven’t had any complaints about starfields performance.

    That said I can’t fucking stand consoles. I get that companies would be stupid to not sell something to as many people as possible, but I’m so sick and tired of seeing good games handicapped because they need to run on a rotten potato Xbox from 10 years ago or whatever…

      Like 40-45fps? I’ve seen a couple people say this now, but every outlet I have seen benchmark performance contradicts it. I don’t consider 40fps smooth at all, but I guess consoles even have to suffer with 30fps in some cases, so a lot of people are okay with it.

      Consoles dictate a lot of triple A games, that’s where the biggest profit is and why PC is an after thought like it was here.

        I actually never pulled up an FPS meter as it has been so smooth I never felt the need to check. I’ll see when I get home later what it actually is in neon or somewhere “busy.”

            I’ll never understand why developers add stuff that make the game look so much worse…

            Looking at you chromatic aberration, motion blur, film grain, vignette…

            The first thing I do with a new game is check graphics settings and nuke that extra garbage lol

              Yup like sure add it but at least disable it all by default, but motion blur does make low fps look better, if you can put up with the blur that is (I can’t), it’s used heavily on consoles for that reason.
