PC gamers have had enough of messy launches and broken games

PC gamers have rightfully had enough of messy launches, which is to be completely understood. When you’re shelling out potentially £50 to £60 for a new game, you don’t want to then find that game is completely and utterly ridden with bugs and glitches, rendering it unplayable.

Take a look at the newly releasedPayday 3in action below.

Reddit user SelimSC took to the site towrite, “AAA studios have no excuse not to optimise their games properly. I’ve never seen a clearer example of this [than] going from playingStarfieldback toCyberpunk[2077] forPhantom Liberty. On my average laptop that has a 3070ti, I can playCyberpunkat Ultra settings with Ray Tracing using DLSS and I’m constantly over 80-90 fps. Also the game looks absolutely gorgeous.”

“I just don’t buy games until I can confirm they run at acceptable frames/stability. Nearly every game gets fixed a few months in,”wrotechakramer, while another userpointed outthat poorly optimised games will continue releasing as “people still buy them anyway”. User trip6s6i6x summed up what we’re all thinking,saying, “You got an upvote for the title, and then you lost it with the example.” The OP’s post uses some silly logic but what matters most is that we should all be confident that a newly purchased PC game will perform steadily.
