Proton Experimental got a new update yesterday that improves Final Fantasy 16, Shadow of the Tomb Raider, and more.
So much hassle people had for FF16 performance on PS5 to hit PC and still be barely playable. FF16 is hitting the crysis “can it run it” for PCs.
And now I’m genuinely wondering is it because the devs failed to properly design the game or is it because it is over ambitious.
Too many variances in the PC ecosystem. They can attempt to optimize to a point but ultimately, as it is in most cases, individuals will have to tweak settings to get their rig to run the game at its subjective best. Me personally, I enjoy a no fuss console experience but must admit I'm getting into the simplistic steam deck tweaks.
that's just nonsense, square is just bad at ports and have been for years. Japanese ports were notorious for it a good while, but it has gotten better but still nothing to write home about. Take FF7R pt1 for example, at launch on pc there were frequent random fps drops for no reason and a guy, a single guy got a patch out within 2 days that fixed it, if that doesn't say enough about their incompetency with pc ports then idk.
I don't know how people are getting such poor performance. It ran well for me +60fps at 1440p dlss balanced, all high settings. I'm on a i7-8700, 32gb ram, and 3080, so a pretty old setup. I get very few stutters, and it's buttery smooth if i cut the shadows down to medium settings. cut scenes have been modded to run at 60fps.
It's sitting at "mostly positive reviews' on steam. With most of the complaints coming from those with said poor performance. By absolutely no means is this a perfect / great port, but it's not god awful. Seems like it's a hardware issue on the customers end, and issues with the port itself.
This is talking about proton tho. It's expected for games to run poorly because they aren't natively running on Linux. I will agree however that Square has a history of putting out horribly running games on PC.
The game was optimized specifically for the PS5 and even so it makes that console creak....wonder how the Pro will handle it....
Shadow of the Tomb Raider is worth revisiting as it turns six years old just before the launch of the upcoming Netflix anime series.
Yeah. The "open hub" model with "quest givers" really did not work at all for me.
I literally came in here to say this. It started off so good, too. Once you hit Peru or wherever, you smash into a brick wall with the pacing. Honestly, the first entry in the reboot was the best one of this trilogy. Also, I’ll never understand why they let you dual wield her classic pistols in the first reboot at the very end and then in the sequels they never gave you that again.
Even more insulting. They let you buy one of the two pistols in Shadow of the tomb raider but never the second one
The first was cool, it had its flaws but it wasn’t a bad starter. The second was supposed to be something special and just did not live up to the promises. The 3rd I can’t even finish it’s just not fun and narratively still a huge issue for the character.
Laura is written so contradictory, trinity supposedly is so bad but her body count on innocence and villains alike is alarming.
It had its high points. Visuals are still some of the best I have ever seen. The areas were also gorgeous and fun to explore and the puzzles were actually good. That being siad the combat felt terrible, the hub area of paititi was boring, and nearly every aspect of the game felt a step backward from Rise. I still love the series and really forward to the next entry but hoping they make it mode similar to rise or even the original reboot.
I adored Rise of the Tomb Raider, but for some reason I had a harder time getting into Shadow of the Tomb Raider.
Shadow of the Tomb Raider was a huge letdown compared to the series Reboot and Rise of the Tomb Raider...
You mean the game where they took out all the cool weapons? The locations were okay, a bit unoriginal and too much like the first Uncharted. 1 and 2 rocked. This one tried.
42 Steam Deck-compatible games that you can get for free right now, but you'll need an active Amazon Prime subscription for most of them.
I've noticed when I was still paying for Prime that those supposed free games they give through Epic are just free games epic gives without the need of Prime. Rugrats is in the list in the article and it's available to get without Prime so that's pretty shady on Amazon's part, or maybe it's Epic being scummy.
Tales from the Borderlands (the original, good one), Shadow of the Tomb Raider, Borderlands the pre-sequel, Borderlands 2, Loop Hero, Trek to Yomi, Greedfall, Shadow of Mordor, Hard West 2, Figment 2. Some great gets there.
Amazon never give steam codes away so the steam deck link here is silly unless you are modding and installing epic launcher.
Yeah I get a ton of free games on epic, It works but having to launch the Epic browser and games though it is pain vs just using the Steam deck OS. Once the game is running no issue though,
They give away quite a few GOG versions of games though, I suppose you can just slap those onto your Steam Deck (I've done this), although it's not always ideal.
You can but it’s a pain to launch them and doesn’t it require installing windows?
You don't need windows, personally, I just download it on PC, then transfer it to the Steamdeck via network sharing or USB stick. Then you add it to the Steamdeck as a "non-steam game" like you would if you were using a PC. The only downside is if you play the game on both PC and Steamdeck, you'll have to manually transfer save files.
Supposedly you can use Hero launcher or something, but I can't seem to get the games to work after download it via GOG on Steamdeck. So manually transfer it is for me.
lol, folks and their respective fetishes....its all good, not my cup of tea but I certainly get it though. Enjoy!!!
Better late then never.
LOL I love that they called it the Booty Edition. These mods always look horrible.
