    Yeah definitely. I would try both ways and see which runs better

    The biggest tip I have is try setting graphics quality to high. Anything below that and the game offloads way too much on your cpu in an already cpu heavy game

    I bought a 6e router to wirelessly stream to my vr headset. Huge improvement for that use case but haven’t noticed a difference otherwise

    It is poorly optimized but manageable with some tricks imo. The game is heavily cpu bound so you actually want to leave your graphics on high/very high to keep that load on the gpu rather than the cpu. I’ve got a 2070 super and ryzen 3600 I believe and I can keep above 30fps most the time which I fully realize is very bad compared to other games haha. I’m just willing to put up with it. They’re also working on implementing a new renderer which should improve performance eventually

    Eagerly awaiting Star Citizen 3.18 PTU. Even though the game is a buggy mess I still love it. Nothing else comes as close to that feeling of actually being in a sci fi universe

    The concept of MUDs intrigues me but I don’t enjoy text based games so I really enjoy reading your writeups in each of these threads

    Great read. I'd heard of the concept of spaced repetition but never known how to actually implement it

    Yeah I was thinking about picking up the bundle just for that game since it seemed so relevant. I already donated separately though and couldn’t really justify the cost for one game. Thank you!
