UE5 exists to obsolete these GPUs

thank god there aren't any games worth getting on UE5

[–] theunknownmuncher@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Well, I definitely wouldn't say that. There are games that are good despite UE5.

Yeah, I'm sorry; SpongeBob SquarePants: Titans of the Tide is GOTY

I had some good times in Dune Awakening on the 1080ti. Solid 45-60fps too. Also some bad times but not the cards fault lol.

Edit: but ya its stupid that the perf is that bad when I can play games from 2005 (freestyle gunz) and get 144 frames locked. UE5 is so poorly optimized it is like 10 tomes worse than what came before

Wouldn't Dune be more CPU bound (on a relative basis compared to most games)? Lots of players on screens, physics calculations and so on...

[–] cevn@lemmy.world 1 points 2 months ago

Possibly. I encountered players pretty rarely though, and normally only fighting 3-5 enemies at once. Lot of sand and particles though.
