I dont understand how this is even an argument dude, bethesda has the worst reputation for this stuff. Literally every game they have released has been buggy as shit with terrible performance, but for some reason people just handwave it and say "its a bethesda game" when did they get so brainwashed, why is it acceptable for them??

Yeah, exactly. I'm getting tired of this too. Even with all of the evidence in the world that this issue is halving game performance people are still dismissing it. $1000 dollars worth of performance I paid for down the drain and yet "a smooth 60 FPS" is enough justification for people.

It's like if somebody sold you a full-priced V8 that had 4 of the cylinders not firing and your peers telling you to deal with it because "at least it runs".

It blows my mind how critical everyone was of Cyberpunk, despite it running fairly well on PC especially a few weeks after release, and how much of a pass everyone gives Starfield.

I mean people are trying to say it's another FO76. It's not even remotely close to another FO76.
