At this point companys really must be increasing requirements just because, aint no way something that looks like starfield needs that much ram

[–] Dr_Cog@mander.xyz 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

it totally is, im not getting old, you're getting old

[–] Apeeksiht@lemdro.id 2 points 1 year ago

I was playing elden ring last year with ram usage around 9gb to 10gb that too on 1080p

[–] whiskers@lemmings.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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

[–] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 4 points 1 year ago

i mean, its bethesda, yo you really expect any kind of optimization ? and at launch at that? its a sad state of affairs but alas, that is how tripl a is nowadays

You should try booting up Icarus - 32gb get filled up as if you’re using a floppy disk
