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.

    Also the idea of just having another “capitalism in space simulator” is annoying.

    It’s downright bleak to me that 99% of video games with space civilizations are focused on mercantilism in space or exploited truckers in space or some kind of predatory capitalist dystopia in space.

    • I just want me some fully automated luxury gay space communism, not fucking blade runner with spaceships.

      They really saw the cyberpunk dystopias of the 80s and went: woah thats so cool, we should have that in everything now unironically

        I used to be a massive cyberpunk genre enjoyer but I am getting really sick and tired of the horny-but-ideologically-vapid version of it that drops the punk and inflates the cyber and is loaded with enlightened centrist bullshit.

        Because the ruling class likes that version, it’s the dominant version.

        lord-bezos-amused was so excited about The Expanse and started financing the show because he thought that the setting was a great place to live for rich monsters like himself.

          I’ve never bothered with The Expanse because it’s just people being shitty to each other the same way they are now, but even more horrific because now they can bombard cities with asteroids.

            Same.

            I tried watching the show, and as soon as it went to its first standard issue dae le very mature prestige tv torture scene, I noped out.
