Translation: “we didn’t bother making this work with arc because the third party tool we used to port it from console to PC didn’t support it and we don’t give a fuck.
"they'll be a mod made later"
The mod will make the game free to play for everyone!
"Wait a minute..."
"We are not actually very good at this how have you not figured this out yet?"
I claim Bethesda's games do not meet the minimum requirement for me to pay for them instead of plundering
Are pirates the vegans of pc gaming?
No, we don't cost you money and won't judge you as harshly for paying for the game.
We will however tuck you in bed at night and give you a little smooch on your forehead if you stay seeding.
Yeah they're based
Yes
This must be one of the worst-developed games in the last ten years. If a high-end PC can't run it, they did a shitty job designing it, and the graphics are not great. They spent zero time optimizing it.
So, another Bethesda game?
Pretty much
But we're a decade past where that's good enough. "Another Bethesda game" at that same Bethesda quality level now is a trash game.
I'm playing on Xbox gamepass and am pretty disappointed with the graphics (glad I didn't bother buying it on PC). The faces during dialogue look like they just upscaled obsidian slightly and slapped it in there.
Bethesda doesn't seem to care about pr at all
They haven't for a while, remember the classic
we're not planning on doing anything about it
This feels like the discussion then Fallout 4 was released. People were getting 15fps in the locations like the outdoor cities and Bethesda blamed it on the PC.
The game runs flawlessly on our dev* and testing** computers
(Dev computers are $4000 top of the line systems)
(Testing computers are the $4000 top of the line systems that they used last year)
The answer is likely just that Bethesda coders are bad at optimization. They don't have to put out a quality product, so they never learn how to make one.
Can't fix their middleware? My Arc a750 runs Cyberpunk & most other games much better than my brother's 3060.
Bethesda support saying the Intel Arc doesn't meet the minimum requirements doesn't mean they don't actually mean to support it. It means that support looked at the product requirements and didn't see Intel Arc listed or that the person confused it with the integrated graphics chip.
Bruh, 16GB vram isn't enough for their game? Holy hell, man 😂
Meanwhile I'm running Starfield on a Steam Deck with zero issues and 30-60 FPS
