I think most of us saw this day coming. It took most corporate game developers...what? A decade to even start experimenting with making use of multi-core CPUs? It makes you wonder why it costs so much to develop modern games when they don't even make their own engines any longer.

Well BL4 devs clearly saw all the fancy tech and were like fuck it let's turn it all on. Doesn't matter if game runs like ass.
I mean there are some good UE5 running games. First Descendant and Hell is Us run on potatoes perfectly fine.

Well damn. I had heard BL4 was actually looking good, shame to hear it's the new Crysis.

Ye game looks good coz they overdid the lighting. It's kinda absurd.
A 5090 struggles to run it at badass settings even on 1440p with upscaling. It's kinda silly.
There is also prob some optimization issues they didn't bother.
I saw some reviews where it's like game is a crash fest. Apparently new nvidia drivers that were supposed to help run it better are causing the game to crash even more.
Something something nvidia is the best gpu company.

Glad I lost interest in the new borderlands 2 is still my favorite with wonderlands being a close second

From what I heard the gameplay is fine, story is just boring and not obnoxious like in 3 but it's the hilariously bad pc optimizations that got people raving.

Dang 3 was pretty boring though

I have a rather uptodate CPU and MB, but I'm still running games at great FPS on my 5+ y/o 2080Ti on 1920x1080. As long as I don't have anything else using the GPU, I don't have issues. People just need to build better. (and developers need to know what is and isn't needed).

I have a B580 and like mgs delta runs anywhere between 20-60 fps on low performance upscale meanwhile Hell is Us has been doing 60 most of time on ultra with quality upscale.
A lot of devs just don't know how to properly use UE5.

This is why you don't give developers cutting-edge hardware to develop their games. They don't even try to target lower-end hardware.

I'm glad I'm not into these kinds of games. I'm limping along on a 660GTX until I finally move to Linux.

I finally this year changed my 1050ti to a b580 so lel yes know how that is.
