    cries as realises my once-mighty 2070s is no longer ‘recommended specs’

      Same. I just bought the 2070S like… 3 years ago? 2 or 3. I thought it would let me max out games for closer to 5 years, but here we are. lol

        Some of my friends were laughing at me as the 30-series was about to release when I got the 2070s. I was the one laughing when none of them could even get a 30-series a year later, without paying scalper prices! It’s done me really well, feel like we got in just at the right time before prices went nuts and availbility dropped.

        Seems to be better now, last time I checked the prices weren’t overly-insane and there were plenty of units available.

        That link gives me a 404… do you know why it’s included internet connection in the recommended (but not required) specs?

          It’s not a link; i was saying the Internet connection is only even mentioned because of the Bethesda.net service and access to the Steam Workshop; both are for getting mods, and Bethesda.net is also where you’d get paid cosmetics and whatnot if they have them. It’s not required to play, which is why it’s only in recommended.

      16gb isn’t really a lot of RAM nowadays, though

      That’s not true. RAM usage in open world games depends on how much assets are being loaded. We’ll need an in-depth analysis to determine if it is bad optimization or not
