Since they're locking Consoles to 30 fps I'm worried their Recommended settings are using that as baseline as well.
If that's the case I'll wait for some IT hero with too much free time to upload their optimisation mod to nexus đ
It does make me wonder what awful things they're getting that poor creation engine to do.
To be fair I remember Fallout 3 being a bit of a nightmare to play at launch too.
I won't be getting it day1 as I have an RTX 30-series GPU that is half the performance of the minimum requirement, hopefully this is a case of them being overly cautious.
I feel like getting any big game day 1 is risky. I usually give most games 6 months to mature now.

Those recommend gpu reqs are fucking ridiculous lol. If people are getting anything less that 60 with a 6700xt, then m$ and Bethesda fucked up again.
Also, 125gb? What the fuck?
Damn, these are jacked specs. Literally just upgraded in January from my old ryzen 2600x and 1070ti combo to a 6700xt and ryzen 5600x. My new GPU doesn't even meet the recommended specs wtf lol.
I have an RTX 30-series GPU and its only half of the minimum GPU, I'm hoping its a 1440p spec list given the Series S version will be 1440p.
If it can run at 1440p on the XS|S, it should run on my RTX-3050 (laptop 85W).
There's no way those specs are right. Their games are notoriously CPU dependent, I refuse to believe a R5 3600 can get stable 60fps gameplay out of this engine but a 6700xt cannot.
But if they're right, there's gonna be a lot of complaints surrounding optimization around launch, and the 30fps BS on console will make a lot more sense.
Edit: In fact, your GPU does meet recommended spec, because it outperforms the "recommended" 2080 in every benchmark I've seen, and has 50% more VRAM. Ignore this garbage, wait for reviews.
Wonder what steam deck support will look like.
Probably have to install separate mods to give it PS2 graphics to even get it to work at 20fps lol.
I simply think they won't care much about it, as it seems from the requirements :/
Based on the recommended specs, it likely won't run, at least not without some serious compromises.
Welp, I'm out.
Ssd required? Does it use direct storage?
I'm speculating using a physical hard drive will be a poorer user experience - ie: being slow to stream the world data causing pop in, texture loading issues etc
Both drive types are physical devices that a person can hold in their hand; you must have meant another word. Platter, maybe? Unless... something has changed drastically and I'm out of the loop. Are the youngsters downloading both RAM and storage drives now?
No Linux?
It will probably work with proton
Hopefully I can run this at close to 60fps on my pc with a 3070. I really donât want to upgrade for a car with more VRAM.
This is my fear as well. Considering their targeting 30fps for the consoles, I wouldnât be surprised if thatâs what these specs are targeting as well.
Oof. That min spec? That's my max spec right there. Except linux not windows.
This is actually shockingly low, I wonder if that means it's decently optimized or has a "potato mode" setting. 125gb storage though, gonna be a beeeeeg boy
That's reassuringly low. I guess it's not that surprising as it's using what I think is a modified version of the Skyrim engine.
