Yeah, nvidia put it out as a showcase for RTX and you can run the demo files or the retail ones with it

Almost done with the tablets and medals in DQB2. I was hoping the later rewards would be nicer than they are, the Liquid Metal Armor is hideous and I'm having a hard time imagining the Liquid Metal Sword is betting than the upgraded Falcon Blade.

Yeah and the framerates on quake in 2019 made me thing ray tracing is not there yet as a tech to care about if you are a bazillionaire

Outer Wilds is barely playable on Xbox One, I doubt a Switch version would be a good idea.

Agreed. It changed the look on the game in a way that doesn't work at all for what the game's visuals are supposed to convey.

The Outer Worlds is the game I am most excited for this year. It's Fallout New Vegas in a completely original science fiction setting.

It looks and runs worse than every other version obviously but if you want handheld DOOM then yes, it's worth it.

Uh, to be fair, it looks and runs great on the switch, just not at 4K 60fps like you can pull on a PC

If your Switch is always docked and you own an Xbone, PS4, or decent PC it's a bad buy, but if you want portable Doom or a Switch is your only gaming device then it's a perfectly fine way to play it.

Just read the outer worlds port is being done by the devs who did starlink switch, so it has the chance of being an excellent port.

Other Switch ports done by that crew include FF12, Dark Souls and LA Noire so they have some form in solid ports of open world games.

I have to say, now that outer worlds is coming to the switch, I'm not worried obsidian will sell enough copies. It's been assured with this port.

If it’s on the Switch it’ll sell the most on the Switch. Switch havers are the REAL gamers and know that this is the greatest console ever made.

It is definitely a thing that certain games sell the most on Switch. Wolfenstein? Probably not, but the right kind of multi platform game will definitely excel on the switch

I wanna see the Cuphead sales numbers. I'm guessing it sold at least 3x as much in 4 months on Switch than in 2 years on Xbox/PC.

Yeah if quake is the game getting 60fps, how's a modern game supposed to use the tech?

There's many ways to use the tech, and the Quake RTX port takes it to the absolute limit by raytracing absolutely everything in a similar way to how film renderers work.

It's much less demanding if you use traditional rasterization where possible and only fall back on raytracing for the elements that are hard to do well with raster (e.g. reflections).

Outer Worlds was already a gently caress you to Bethesda, but putting it on Switch before any Fallout port is just icing on the cake. Really hope it's good so I never have to consider a Todd Howard game ever again
