So much Elden Ring. I already Platinum’d it on PS5 at launch, but I recently saw that there’s a surprisingly big and active modding community for it, so I got it on Steam and installed the Elden Ring Reforged mod. It’s been long enough since I played and the mod changes enough that it feels like a new game. It’s incredible.
Not a big surprise. Capcom isn’t exactly famous for their great PC optimization. Guess I’ll have to pass on this one. Pity.
Still, I’ll hold a glimmer of hope that modders will fix the poor optimization. They did it for World, apparently, before Capcom released an official patch that did exactly what the optimization mod did.
Yeah, I ended up just using my spare PS5 controller instead, and that’s worked perfectly. Some games even support its adaptive triggers, which was a nice surprise.
I tried connecting my old Xbone controller and had the same issue. I think they use some old, unsupported version of Bluetooth (or maybe their own proprietary signal). You’re outta luck, I’m afraid.
I wouldn’t be too worried about burn-in. You’d have to display the same static image at max brightness nonstop for a month straight, according to this article.
FYI, it’s an acronym: TERF. Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist
Personally, I disagree with Rowling’s views regarding trans women, but it’s unfair to condemn everyone involved with making the game for the IP’s creator’s backwards views, especially since she had no role in its development.
