  • I got a good amount of playtime out of it, but only because I used mods and had fun installing texture packs and stuff. Also the Luma HDR mod was some of the best HDR I have ever seen. It made the game absolutely beautiful on an OLED monitor. I spent a lot of time just flying around to different planets and cities and just looking at the HDR presentation, taking screenshots.

    That being said, yea, the game sucks. At the best it’s very mediocre. I definitely don’t think it’s worth $70.

    It’s not surprising that you’re going to find Bethesda bootlickers on a starfield subreddit though. Not sure what you expected? Every game subreddit is like that.


  • I’ll try to respond below. Lemme know what you think:

    Consoles:

    Need to upgrade every 5-7 years if you want to play new games on next gen consoles. Can play your old games indefinitely.

    PC:

    Need to upgrade every 5-7 years if you want to play new games that are more demanding and require next gen parts. Can play your old games indefinitely.

    In terms of playing new games on an old PC, try playing cyberpunk on a PC from 2013 (7 years prior to CP77 release in 2020). You’ll get like 2 fps. Not even playable.

    So to conclude, sure, you can try to play new games on your old ass PC, but it’ll run like crap and won’t be a good experience.

    Edit: just to clarify, my opinion is from the perspective of someone who wants to play new demanding games. If you play super easy to run new indie games, then yea I agree with your point. Added benefit of PC is the ability do that indefinitely.
