  • What I’d like to see is for the “real” gamepad icon to broadly match the current one in color scheme and orientation.

    Edit:

    My attempt. It’s a simple color swap of https://github.com/KDE/breeze-icons/blob/559782c5f5b455646d6c012fe5717057d5eb7764/icons/devices/64/input-gaming.svg

    The license requires the SVG source to be shared but for whatever reason Lemmy lets me select the SVG file in the upload picker but doesn’t then upload anything, so here it is:

  • I can’t comment too deeply on consoles.

    Then don’t.

    Google suggests that it supports ray tracing.

    Series S has raytracing support on paper (just as Steam Deck has) but the GPU is way too underpowered to actually use raytracing for anything.

    So my point stands.

    No, it doesn’t.

    Stop expecting your 10 year old hardware to run new games indefinitely

    Nobody said that. What can be expected is for Microsoft to ship the same performance profiles they enable for one of their platforms (Series S) on their other 1st party platform (Windows).



  • Shit moves on. Did you expect your 1060 card from 2016 to last indefinitely? How long did you expect developers to support 2 different lighting systems?

    This as well as Indiana Jones are both 1st party games Microsoft which are also being released onto Xbox Series S. They are already supporting two different lighting systems because of that.

    It’s not unreasonable to for paying customers to expect Microsoft to just ship the same performance profiles on their PC games.

    What Microsoft is doing is not a technological move. It’s a desperate move to sell more Xboxes.


  • But lowering all settings to low and Dynamic Resolution to max 100 min 66 gets me back to 30fps everywhere

    That’s one of the criticism the author mentions early on. It’s really easy for developers to build in a check if their game is running on Steam Deck and then select the performance preset. It’s literally a task of only “if steamdeck=1 set performance profile to low” (so 1 line of code in most cases, a bit more work should they make a dedicated performance profile for Deck).
