Fair warning to anyone considering Starfield. The performance of this game is absolute crap. (hexbear.net)

It runs at 30fps on all the lowest settings on a 2070 with 64gb ram and an i9-12900K.

It is quite possibly the worst performing game I have ever seen. It's a piece of crap.

Glad I didn't pay for this shit. And I will not. 🏴‍☠️ The writing and worldbuilding is probably AI and gutter tier liberal political takes anyway.

I am absolutely stunned by just how badly this thing runs like omfg I run Elden Ring at 120fps at the same resolution. What the fuck is wrong at Bethesda? I'm so mad about this I just played Armoured Core at a rock solid 144fps and it is so jarring to go from that to this absolutely horrific performance.

The year is 2784. What's left of humankind after the water wars, wildfires, rising sea levels, wet bulb events, and category 10 hurricanes of the past 700 years has managed to leave the solar system on a generation ship. The Elder Scrolls 14 has just come out after a tortured 36-year development cycle with 19 years dedicated to "rebuilding" the engine. It's a Microsoft Holodeck exclusive. You go in and the first NPC you see clips through a boulder and starts slowly sinking into the ground after clearing it while muttering to themselves about mudcrabs. The gamma setting is slightly off and there's no way to adjust it. You start to move forward and the world hitches as trees pop in mere meters before you in ultra-low LOD, slowly coming into full detail over a few seconds.

I'm never preordering a Bethesda hologame again.
