There are potential pitfalls with procedural generation, and Starfield definitely did it poorly, but as a fan of TES since Daggerfall I’m happy to get behind this. I’m sure it’s possible to make proc-gen work well and I’m hopeful they’ll manage it. Only time will tell I guess.

It just hit 100% 🥳

I can’t say it’s something I noticed, but I’m sure there will be options to adjust that. It also seems like the kind of game that will attract modders, just like all TES games.

No Starfield for launch though.

Thanks for the feedback. My thinking was if by going with Palit or Zotac I can get stretch my budget to include a 4080 (if going AM5) or 4090 if going (Z790 or B660 + 13600K) etc, then it would be worth it, providing these basic cards would prove reliable. I just don’t know their reputation as I’m unfamiliar with the brands, since this will be my first gaming PC.

Which CPU did you go for?

Technically I have a gaming laptop with an RTX 2070, and I don’t think the GPU will be up to the task. Though I could be pleasantly surprised, especially with PureDark’s promise to have a DLSS mod running before the full launch.

That’s a great idea!

Isn’t Xcloud limited to 720p? My plan is to replace my gaming PC and use Sunshine and Moonlight to stream from the PC. I’ve been testing streaming from my current setup over the last couple of days and it’s working very well.

Another week passes without word on more Xbox Studio’s games, which is disappointing. There’s little chance I’ll be playing Starfield on GFN it seems. I may have to replace my rig instead, though I suppose either way Nvidia will get my money, sadly.

Yes.
