LOL you think I’m a PCMR neckbeard? My PC is old, it’s running a Vega56, not even in the last two generations of graphics cards, I’m fine with 30FPS when it makes sense but I’m talking sub-25FPS with shit frame times that make it feel like a damn slideshow. I prefer consoles, FFS I run a steam deck docked to my TV more than I use my gaming PC. Why do you think I use GeForce Now? So I can play games on high settings and not deal with settings that make my games look like they’re running on an N64. You keep calling me a member of PCMR if you want but I’m not ever here riding Bethesda dick for a shitty game.

Starfield plays like shit, looks like shit (by today’s standards) and the quests are shit. Neon is a lazy world that only ends up becoming one giant hallway with a few shops. Everywhere else feels lifeless and boring. Starfield was a flop, and while Elex isn’t the best game out there, the fact that it can in fact in some situations stand toe to toe with Starfield on graphical fidelity is just an absolute disgrace. I was on a desert planet in Starfrield in the main story (can’t remember the name) at night, on a balcony running on GeForce Now with an RTX 2080 and getting less than 24FPS, that’s absolutely pathetic, game is just bad.

Whenever one of these handhelds pops up the main selling point is always “more powerful than the steam deck!” or “steam deck is only 720p 60hz!” But no one seems to understand that valve picked that specific hardware for a reason. The 720p screen uses less power and the APU doesn’t have to push a 1080p panel on a handheld meaning more battery life, the APU at the time was probably the most power efficient for the performance so the battery doesn’t last for only an hour, it last for 4 or 5 (not sure on exact numbers). The ROG ally is probably going to run very hot compared to the steam deck, but that’s speculation on my part. Valve is full of smart individuals, they didn’t pick the hardware they did on a whim, that’s where the difference is going to show between these devices and the steam deck.

Breath of the wild, I hated it, thought it was the worst Zelda I’ve ever played. Just didn’t feel like a Zelda to me.
