Only a 2080 for recommended specs? Do they know they’re Bethesda?
That seems really low for recommended. Guess they really built it for consoles before PC.
Whelp, it looks like I’m going to be CPU bottlenecked.
I have an older i5… how do you find out what model it is without opening the case? Is it in system section in settings?
Device manager will tell you the generation and model
Reminder: do not pre-order video games. There is not a limited stock of bits and Bethesda will absolutely fuck up and fix bugs in a month. You can wait until you know it’s good or even for a sale.
How many games are in your backlog anyway?
They say 1070ti… will my 980ti run it??
Also I hope it runs on Linux

That’s the part that they always leave out 😡
The specs are exactly the same as the ones that have been up on the Steam page for weeks/months, in case someone was wondering if they’d changed.
I’m gonna run it on a 1050Ti, we’ll see what happens!
Is ssd required even a thing? I mean sure it’s faster but… Only?
Kinda sorta required if you want to stream assets from storage, an approach taken by many modern games. Might not be absolutely necessary depending on your setup / game settings. BG3 also said SSD required but there’s a “Slow HDD Mode” in the settings anyway, which I believe just shifts more of the streaming burden to RAM/VRAM. If you played on a HDD without enabling it, I guess you’d expect to see inconsistent pop-in as individual assets try to stream in faster than your storage can read. But playing with it enabled might also cause performance drop if your RAM/VRAM was already close to full utilization with the setting disabled
I’m probably thinking yeah. I mean, you could probably get it to run on HDD, but I’m thinking that if Bethesda created this game similar to their others, there is a boat load of cells per planet/in space and it would be way more than what you would load into the RAM, so SSD will significantly reduce load times.
But that’s just me spitballin too
