Thanks for Ultros impressions Robio. I love the art, might get it on a savage sale.

This weekend I managed to get a 5080 for $1200... sigh. But I put that baby into my PC, the last piece of the puzzle I have been waiting for and I have a PS6 now. This is absurd graphics, I can't believe the level of detail and smoothness I am getting. I was playing Exp 33 with vasceline on the screen, and at 40 fps which I thought was great. Now everything MAX, all RT crazy shit on and max, 4k, 60fps with no drops. The game looks like a went up a gen, cause I guess I did. I tried Cyberpunk which I played before even the PC I had now, I played that at like 25fps on shit mode. I turned it all on, path tracing, ray tracing, all the tracings! Whatever magic shit they have I put on... its WILD. It becomes semi photorealistic at times and I get like 45fps with everything maxed. I can tweek a thing or two to get it to 60. This card is a beast. I now understand all these people wanting RT on everything, its nice lol.

I also started Doom, I get 90fps with everything super max so great performance. I only played 4 levels but I am not enjoying as much as I hoped. I am one of the Eternal lovers, there are those that hated the direction Eternal went with maybe they like what they did her, to me its a huge step back at least early in the game. Its too much just parrying and shield bashing into punch combos. Its a ton of punching things... in Doom. Ehh.

I did think the environments in The Dark Ages look very flat and wide. Theres more enemies but what's happened to level design when everything is flat and open?

I'm kind of with you on that. I'd love for Nintendo to focus on power like the SNES days but I'm afraid they won't in the future.

I hope they stay handheld. Since 2012 I've had the option of playing off screen or easily switching tvs when docked.

Going back to a one tv setup will feel incredibly limiting to my play style.

I'm glad you got some value from it. I picked up a physical copy of it for around $25, thinking I had found a great sale. But really that's all it demands in the market at the moment. If you find it for a price in the single digits, it might be worth picking up. I can't deny that artistically the game does have a lot going for it.

It will drop in price digitally. I will wait as long as a statue on Easter Island.
