    Crysis was built by a company specialising in building a high fidelity engine. It was, by all accounts, meant primarily as a tech demo. This is absolutely not the case with Starfield - first, the game doesn’t look nearly good enough for that compared to Crysis, and second it’s built on an engine that simply can’t do a lot of the advanced stuff.

    The game could be playable on max settings on many modern computers if it was optimised properly. It isn’t.

      sure mister gamedev, please continue to tell more on how an engine you clearly worked on, should run…

      I dont say that Starfield is a well optimised game and performance will get better with upcoming patches. But I also don’t think it’s an unoptimized mess, I think it is running reasonable and people really should start review their rig, because modern games will need modern components

      Oh and also other games did not run that well like you maybe remember ;)

        I can easily compare between what different game companies do. Why are you acting like I need to be a developer on a game to criticise that game?

        I dont say that Starfield is a well optimised game and performance will get better with upcoming patches.

        Todd could have said so. He didn’t. Why?

        But I also don’t think it’s an unoptimized mess, I think it is running reasonable and people really should start review their rig, because modern games will need modern components

        I never stated this. I simply said: comparing Starfield and Crysis is deliberately disingenuous, because Crysis was fundamentally meant to break boundaries, which Starfield doesn’t do.

        Oh and also other games did not run that well like you maybe remember ;)

        Okay, what’s the argument here? Do you think I say for those games “well, you’re not Bethesda, so I’m fine with you not running well”?
