That's two games today that I was hyped for that ended up being trash. Just gonna get hyped for indie games from now on

    Runs like dogwater apparently. Recommended specs are higher than 80% of Steam gamer PCs.

    This is like 95% of all new release games on computer.

    Also, it's missing a ton of features from SC1's DLCs, which people were hoping for

    This is like 95% of Paradox Interactive's business model.

    I don't know what the freeze-gamers expect.

      the performance is egregious, I've read

      like you can't hit 30 fps on medium settings with a 4060 @ 1080p

        Is it just a gfx bottleneck or CPU? In CS1 I was hitting CPU limits sooner than gfx limits albeit with an old i5 processor

          sounds like the CPU side isn't great, but the main bottleneck is the gpu

        I'm struggling to maintain 50 fps @ 1080p on a Ryzen 5900X and an RTX 2080 super, running at medium

        Quite a few indies go through some kind of early access period, which also puts them into the "runs poorly, wait 6-18+ months to buy" space TBH

      Yep, yet another case of [current year] gaming. freeze-gamer s will never learn.

      Like, it's better in every way to wait at least 6 months for games. Cheaper, better optimized, more features, decent guides online if you get stuck... the day-one buy is just not worth it.
