My poor old PC and card were already struggling before the remaster. Now it won't be able to play it at all and I can't afford to upgrade cuz every PC part costs a mortgage.

Just build your own transistors out of mica you sift from your local stream, dude. Seriously. I'm tired of hearing all these complaints about the unavailability of computer parts. Back in my day we used to build our own computers out of whatever scraps we found in the fridge from last night's dinner. Kids these days just need to bootstrap themselves some high-performance GPUs and stop complaining.

(/S, in case it wasn't obvious)

Hah... "bootstrap"

I see what you did there.

Well, now I just feel silly

Weren’t the extra graphics from the remaster update an optional setting?

[–] Venator@lemmy.nz 1 points 15 hours ago

It might make some effects more efficient too, depending how it's implemented now and was previously, so it might be worth trying again and messing with the settings...

[–] Ghoelian@piefed.social 9 points 1 day ago

The previous one was, yes, so I'd guess they're going in the same direction here

[–] rants_unnecessarily@piefed.social 3 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Settings low? Or is that not enough?
I'm sorry for your loss if it isn't.

Feels unfair if you don't want the upgrade. It should be an optional dlc or something.

[–] Skipcast@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Is it confirmed to be an update to the existing game or a separate game added to your account?

Rockstar did the same with gta v enhanced edition where it was added to your steam account for free but you can still play the original one as well.

[–] Stiggyman@ani.social 2 points 1 day ago

The original game is a optional update you can install. Similar I assume this will also just be the new default with the upgraded graphics and original graphics being optional installs / betas

[–] Anivia@feddit.org 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't understand the confusion. The remaster IS optional. It's only required if you want to play the new DLC that is releasing

Great! That's good then.
