Owning one mechanics keyboard I get but owning multiple mechanical keyboards is the quintessential definition of excess disposable income - good on ya if you have it though
Been enjoying this and I agree the nighttime is just too dark and desaturated. I’m also glad they got included the option to turn off the timers. I know some people enjoy the constraint but I don’t need the extra stress in my life.
@merrvk: They must have had a real tiny QA team? There are so many places where you simply clip through solid objects - and not even out of the way corners of the world, like critical paths on the way to a map vendor locations. Plants floating in mid air. NPC names getting stuck for every subsequent NPC. My money counter getting stuck on the screen. Quests not activating properly.
For every really cool moment and discovery you are treated to five things that ruin the experience almost immediately.
For anyone that doesn’t have Game Pass I would describe the Series X performance to be currently “very rough” to put it lightly. The tutorial zone is fine with a bit of hitching but once you get deeper into the open world I’ve been in closed spaces that are chugging at sub 20 FPS on top of all the other issues like a wonky camera, glitches that require a game restart to fix, constant stuttering.
The game is also entirely too big for the movement speed. When your bike gets inevitably stuck somewhere and you’ve finished a bit of platforming and now need to move on it is quicker to back out of the game and reload your save then walking back to the bike. The way the bike handles also stops being charming after a while and makes you wonder why they left it that way. Any tiny bump in the road makes you flip over and cartwheel out of control - if intentional it is a very weird design choice. In a game that is almost purely cinematic traversal the act of movement should be additive to the experience while currently it actively detracts from it.
Frankly I’m a little shocked by the high scores across the board. Sable is visually stunning but the rest of the game seems to be either poorly thought-out or technically inept.
I would love a bidet with heated water. That is the dream. For now I guess I'll stick to wrapping my hand in paper like a mummy and going to work down there for 10-15 minutes after each poop.
