I know there’s great love for Oblivion (I never played it when it was new), and of course Skyrim is the gold standard for new fans (I played the shit out of that and it was my first entry into the elder scrolls back when it came out 14 years ago…) but I really feel like this shadow drop of a half assed remake is just priming everyone to lower their expectations for the likely dumpster fire that is The Elder Scrolls VI.

I know its old hat nonsense of a complaint but whatever Bethesda used to be it stopped being that 20 years ago and we’re all just stuck thinking they’ll put out some new masterpiece when in reality all the talent they had back in the day has likely left for other jobs and they are now just a shitty company among countless other shitty companies putting profit over anything else and stifling anyone who might actually have good ideas on how to make good games (how unsurprising).

It is literally not a remake, and how is it half assed? I have a low to mid range PC and the game runs smooth as hell, and it's gorgeous.

What gfx setting are you using?

Tried to run it on Wine Lutris and the open world ran like shit.

Gamers is it time to retire the 2060?

The 2060 is a 7 year old entry level card.

Have you tried the config tweak to disable Lumen?

This one helps with lower VRAM apparently:

I tried the Ultimate Engine Tweaks but that didnt't improve much. Will try these too.

Yeah that's what I thought. Will probaly have to upgrade to a better AMD card soon.

Mine runs smooth as fuck.

Try running it on an operating system that the game is native to and not one that doesn't properly support nvidia

Asking someone to switch to Windows or mac on Lemmy. Feeling bold today sir? Maybe devs should just optimize their games

You get neither and company's get money to keep neglecting both of your wants.
