Played it about a year ago, back then I had to use ProtonTricks to install something to fix brightly flashing water and lava.
You can play while marathoning the extended trilogy and see the end credits for both around the same time, the second half of the Two Towers progresses faster than the game but Return Of The King has a ‘slow’ enough start that it makes catch-up time.
not going to run 120fps with all the trimmings
Requires a separate gaming PC, but with Steam Link / Sunshine / Moonlight it can!
Don’t really see a reason to run games like Cyberpunk on low settings at 30FPS when I can pipe it in from the other room at 60FPS+ high / ultra settings
Came in clutch with the poor optimization of MH:Wilds. It was a struggle to run at my monitor’a resolution, but running at 1080P to send to my deck made for a decent experience.
Your framerate is capped at 60fps, which means that the average can only be lower than that.
Based on the 58fps average, I would expect this to be totally playable.
The occasional dip as low as 48fps probably isn’t great, but could be a heck of a lot worse.
If you’re CPU bound, consider increasing the resolution scaling to shift more work to the GPU.
While your CPU is probably a bottleneck for that GPU, as long as you get a playable experience that’s not really as big of an issue as the internet would make you think. You’re leaving performance on the table. Reframe: you’re saving some performance headroom so that when you do inevitably upgrade to a newer CPU, that upgrade will feel even more impactful.
At launch, the original Switch was incredibly difficult to get. I had to use BrickSeek and out in a fair amount of effort to get one, calling in late to work and going out if my way to pick one up.
In the first two weeks after Switch 2 launched, I had multiple opportunities to buy one off the shelf and I wasn’t even looking for them.
The strong launch supply is the key contributing factor to the sales figures here, I’ll be curious to see how the sales compared after a longer period like one year.
