This one's going up later today, but supporters can watch now. The Dead Space Remake - from a content perspective - is nothing short of sensational. However, some small tech issues on the console versions are much more of a problem on PC, which has further challenges on top of that. Here's Alex with the full breakdown on the PC port along with suggestions on how the game should be improved.

I've been looking forward to this one! As always thank you for the incredible work!

Was always going to be worth the wait. Undoubtedly the analyses from you guys decide whether I buy a title, ha.

Transfer commencing. Appreciate the heads-up, as always! Und danke an Alex für die Mühen - im vorraus =P

Damn, it’s starting to sound like the console versions are preferable for now. Hopefully that changes.

Unfortunately so true. Hogwarts legacy looks worse than the consoles too. Mind boggling. Ignoring those extra frames of course. The requirements for these new titles are staggering, my 3090 feels slow now. PC gaming seems doomed unless you have a 4090 for the foreseeable future. Hopefully things change with time and we see better ports and optimizations. Just many games are built for PS5 like the Callisto Protocol. 30FPS or not, much more immersive and runs correctly on that system.

I've got a 4090 + 12900k - lemme tell ya the 4090 doesn't cure the problems. At the end of the day man, spaghetti code gonna run like burnt pasta no matter your rig. A. Plagued tale Requiem stuttered so badly I refunded after an hour. I played dead space all the way through as it wasn't quite as bad as PTR and I'm a big fan of the series, but I kinda wish I would of refunded to send message.

One thing that's really awesome about this game is if you're playing on an OLED: the HDR is fantastic. First game I can really recall playing that has absolutely perfect black levels.

PC gaming appears to be in a tough spot at the moment. Hardware prices are inflated beyond measure. And adding insult to injury, lazy PC ports make a mockery of the platform’s potential.
