I agree, but I think it’s the same as the first game or any game where shot selection matters a lot. We tend to like sweeping panoramic views, especially in video games where we can’t see the details of the models. Focused on particular models, especially people and their animations will always show how ugly a game is unless a huge amount of budget went there. I think this game does look better, but the first one looked pretty good too.
That’s not a problem ;)
Yeah I thought about this some more. I totally forgot that even on my PC I installed ram through a connector. So there is a capability, but my experience is just more in an embedded electronics place where it really isn’t standard just to save space and cost. We also theoretically know the requirements going in so leaving space to upgrade isn’t required like it is for a generic platform like a PC or steamdeck. I don’t think the typical DIMM connectors would work with the form factor, but a different connector could maybe do it. There could also possibly be reliability concerns with ram in a handheld around whatever movement the connector, is expected to deal with, but that couldn’t be overcome. So yeah it’s for sure possible but it would take some work.
I just don’t think most / any connectors are going to be compatible with modern ddr speeds. Even doing the layout on these smd pads takes a lot of work to make it right. You’d be taking a major speed downgrade which would limit your performance way more than this ram amount upgrade overcomes.
Quick Edit: storage is another beast entirely where I agree with you completely. Looks like steam deck you can upgrade the ssd and it’s at least way easier than this. Comparable to a laptop.
Genuinely curious: why fuck Ubuntu?
Yeah, I think they get some unfair flack for “buggy” games. It’s kinda true, but at the same time I feel like they release boundary-pushing games. Granted Im also looking back at skyrim and FO3 with the bias of nostalgia.
I think they just wanted to try to give him big bushy eyebrows, but yeah he’s kinda in sexy librarian territory
