I’d like to test my PC a bit It must also run on Linux, either natively or through proton
Satisfactory can be downright gorgeous, and it’s a test of the hardware. I saw elsewhere in the thread your specs are a Ryzen 7700x, 32GB of RAM and a Radeon 7700xt. I have a similar built, but with a 7900GRE instead, I run Fedora KDE on this box. I’d be interested in comparing notes.
Notes?
I’d like to test my PC
Can it run Crysis?
Black Myth: Wukong
Every single second during a playthrough of this game had out of this world graphics.
Prepare to be amazed!
Such good memories! This is an amazing game!
Art style, graphical fidelity, or both? Cyberpunk 2077 is probably the best looking game to test your PC right now.
Graphical fidelity. A good art style is a plus too
The game is absolutely gorgeous, so is the expansion. Start to finish it has an incredibly solid, interesting and suprsing plot. Just dripping with style and in universe asethic. You can really tell that the art department had a lot of fun with it.
Cyberpunk 2077 fucking nailed the aesthetic it was going for - it has short comings but the visual immersion absolutely isn’t one of them.
Cyberpunk is good. Good game, great graphics.
Red Dead Redemption 2 also has high fidelity.
Agree. RDR2 may not be the best test of high end hardware though, since it was already beautiful on the PS4. It’s just incredibly well optimised.
Can it run Crysis?
So to update this meme to be real and current: Can it run Hunt Showdown 1896, with it’s brand new Cryengine update. Spoiler alert, it’s beautiful.
It also runs fabulously via Steam and Proton.
Probably, I have a Ryzen 7 7700x, SAPPHIRE AMD Radeon RX 7700 XT PULSE 12GB GPU and 32 gigs of RAM
I’m not up to date with my computer components, but sounds impressive.
I have to include that my comment was a joke. Not sure if you know the reference? Sorry in advance if you do.
A significant chunk of people online consider Crysis a retro game.
Ouch. Why must you attack me so savagely. I’m hurt down to all the cracking joints I have when I run. (Joking of course, well not about the joints, but the rest)
Hey I feel it too hahaha. I played Prince of Persia back when he was a slow, constantly dying kid with no powers.
Alan Wake 2 legit blurs the line when presenting a character; between film footage and digitizing the actor. Even the games environments blend in photographed and filmed objects. It’s a masterpiece of a game, with beautiful graphics, and a fun and bonkers story.
I should be playable from Epic Games Store via Lutris or similar. Or from sailing the high seas.
Nah, I’m not going to deal with pirating it or the epic games store
AW2 is DRM-free. I imagine it can be run completely independent of Epic. You’d need the store to purchase and download it but you could probably even uninstall the Epic app afterwards. I haven’t tested this though, so please don’t just take my word for it.
Btw should I play Alan wake before Alan wake 2?
I’ll sail the high seas
Try Minecraft FTB mod with 4k Texture Pack and Real life shaders with 512 chunk distance.
Or Just use nuts.wad
I don’t know if it’s Linux compatible but Elite Dangerous is absolutely beautiful and really sets a strong tone.
Have been playing it on linux since Horizons came out.
Don’t know if it’s top notch graphics, but it’s pretty. Audio design is sublime.
The “ocean wide, one foot deep” thing is true. It’s grindy and gets boring after a while, but it’s still worth it. If you are a “chill” gamer, exploration and mining don’t need grinding and shallowness doesn’t affect them so much.
I loved this game before but ended up finding it kinda boring in the long run. It’s definitely worth getting a flight stick to play, though. Learning to dock and do flips and such as I did was the funnest part by far. And when you jump, especially the first time, it gives you chills.
If you’ve got a valve index or other high quality VR headset the immersion of that is ridiculous - especially with something like voice attack to handle the fiddly keyboard shortcuts that you don’t want on your stick (like engaging the landing gear or the cargo scoop).
I did actually have voice attack and recommend that as well. I never mad the jump to VR, though.
I think Hellblade 2 is one of the best looking games currently.
I’d recommend Half Life: Alyx.
Or, you can probably make an absolute beast of Skyrim through mods.
Division 2 still holds up really well imo
