But I won't say I have any extra confidence than I did going into this show, in fact I might actually have less.

I'm no PC gamer or anything, so just posting this for the peeps that are.

@JohnnyShoulder Good to know. My mum is going to need some upgrades then.

Ah, Starfield. It certainly does look good. It doesn’t mention a saintly level of patience and forgiveness in the minimum requirements though, so I am calling BS on that one.

@BearsEatBeets Your mum, or the PC she has? Is she a PC gamer then?

@kyleforrester87 Do you need a hug or something? I can send some jam your way.

@JohnnyShoulder yeah, I could use a hug.

Don't get me wrong, those recommended specs are still decently heavy @JohnnyShoulder but it seemed like every new PC game (which conveniently had a ***** port) was telling us a 40 series was required to play the game in 1080p 30fps. I dunno if they think that's a brag, but its actually a self own, as that just
