Virtuos, specifically. A studio with a mixed track record at best when it comes to ports and remasters. They were responsible for the complete mess that was Horizon: Zero Dawn's PC port, which Guerilla had to step in and fix. Also the Final Fantasy X remaster with the hideous new character faces. Their Switch ports seem to have been mostly well-received at least. They're also working on the Metal Gear Solid 3 remake, so I'm not holding my breath for that.

Interesting video! I didn't know the Spacers Choice version had issues, I don't keep in the loop with a lot of things. I played the OG version on my old system with a 750ti and really enjoyed it.

There's this orangy color tone in the spacer's choice edition that feels kind of "off" to me. It's as if the world is a bit too colorful, to the extent of having strayed away from realism. Like adding a little bit too much salt into your food, or something like that.

This is quite a little gem of a game, the original anyway, and also ranks among one of my favourites. Not sure I prefer the Spacer's Choice look over the original, as it it looks like they've cranked up colour saturation, but there isn't much else that stands out. Granted, watching your video at 1080p through KZread compression probably isn't the best way to evaluate texture quality. Something I've noticed is that simply because a game's textures might use more VRAM, this isn't 1:1 with quality, as TLOU demonstrated. It still amazes me that there are some older games whose textures sit comfortably inside a 4GB VRAM buffer, and manage to look better than more modern games that don't fit inside an 8 GB VRAM buffer. I supposed some of this comes down to the complacency that some studios have adopted when it comes to game optimisation. You've probably seen the industry reaction to Baldur's Gate, with competing developers saying that BG3 is anomaly in terms of quality and scope, and that we as gamers should not expect that level of quality and polish from other developers. Sadly, it look like The Outer World's SE has fallen prey to that thinking too. At least the original is still available, and the game is good enough on its own not to require more fancy graphics to sell it.

I've just started this game(SC version) on my trusty RX480 and I really like it! Probably best set to medium/low settings to get a smoother experience.

The comparison split-screens show how pointless this "remaster" was. More saturated colors and slightly brighter lighting, nothing a mod couldn't have accomplished. The recommended GPU goes from a 1060 for the original release to a 1080 ti/2070/6700 XT in the SC edition, and for WHAT? They should have just released a "GotY" edition with the bundled DLC and raised level cap and not bothered with nominal graphics upgrades that did nothing but tank performance. Ironic that a game which went so hard on skewering the excesses of capitalism pulled a money-grab like this.

@Wilted_Brainz

Ай бұрын

Not sure on the money grab? I got it free off of Epic. I am glad I looked it up though. If I would have installed this on my older rig, it would have been shit performance it seems? I have a 3060 12GB and 32 GB RAM with a Ryzen 5. This should play nice? Going to install it.

what would you recommend for the GTX 1060 6GB?

I understand why people like to make fun of TLOU as being an "unnecessary" remaster, but this one is genuinely completely unnecessary. The graphics look almost exactly the same, yet the framerates are cut completely in half, and the game was only 3 years old at the time of this remasters release. Apart from easy money for the publisher, what was the point?

I play this at the moment and only problem I have is in equipment UI dots of available mods are not refreshed when item is moved. That's it. Playing on 6600xt and medium 1080p, easily 60fps, all textures are there.

it's Free on the Epic launcher now

Thanks for bringing this up! I've also been putting playing it off and sort of forgot about it. Makes me wonder about games like Forspoken and Gotham Knights, you never see many if any videos where people go back to revisit busted games. At least not in my yt algorithm.

This is the game I didn't know I was CRAVING until I played it! Tim Cain and Obsidian earned my money.

Very good and informative Video, thank you! Any Updates about fixes?

with the last Nvidia driver update i was finaly able to keep a high 1440p on a 3070 on this version and i have alot of fun with the game even after the performance still feels weird after its no problem at all to run the normal version on 4k

I also found massively better stability on the SCE. I honestly prefer it to the original, in its current state.

Got Spacer's Choice from last month's humble bundle. I don't have many hours in it but it runs fine from the few I've put in at 1440p with my 2080

Had no issues recently with a 5600xt + 3600. I used FSR + high settings, smooth 60 fps the whole time.

I have a Ryzen 5 5600X and an RX6700 MECH X2 GPU, with 2x16gb DDR4 3,700Hz RAM. Would this play okay on my PC? I really just don't know how good or bad my specs are. I know they aren't the best, but I also don't know what they are capable of. But I do know they're at keast decent. I just tend to stick to indiengames woth my PC is all and use my PS5 for larger games, as they're cheao to get second hand. I've never properly tested my PC.

Does it not have dlss?

so ..is it somthing i can play or should i stay away from it?

i didnt even know it was a remaster, I just thought it was a deluxe edition

I didn't realize you could put your gun away for the first hour either.

Thanks for doing this, was wondering how it is now.

I love this game (the OG version) and never had too many issues with it imho. While it is a little demanding, it’s a beautiful looking game and worth a play!

I just bought the remaster for 10€ on mmoga, while the original costs almost three times as much! I’ll look forward to playing it for the first time tonight and on the weekend :) Thank you very much for your video it helped me with th purchase!

I've been playing it on a Ryzen 5500, on a gen 1 B350 mobo( pcie 3.0), with 32 gb ram and a RX 6600 @1080p. So far I'm 60-ish hours in and it runs great, enjoying it so far. I had a weird bug where I had to dismiss S.A.M. because somehow armor had got in his armor slots and it made the game crash while on the ship for more than 10 seconds. Despite losing my robot it's still a great game. It honestly feels more like Fallout in space than Starfield. I didn't even know the game had problems before, just started playing last week. I haven't had any stuttering at all, although the first time I loaded the game up, it took almost a minute to build shaders and seemed like it had crashed until it just ran fine and never did it again.

I remember this playing really well on my 1650 laptop a couple years ago.

Going back to all the remasters or just games that were broken on launch to check out modern stability would certainly be interesting. I feel like not enough creators do that so it's hard to keep up with how they're performing. They pump out their original review and just dust their hands of it. You would be doing society a favor lmao

been playing to buy and get the expansions on steam because I only had base game on epic. This seemed like the better buy but there was the problems with it, but then humble bundle game it to me. was still worried about giving it a shot, now I will! thx!

Why don’t you use windows 11? Any particular reason? Love your videos btw

It definitely runs better than it did when it came out Even though I've never been able to be fully captivated by an RPG, this one... Man, every time my mental state told me I should delete it because I didn't feel like playing it anymore, I ended up getting it again the next day. Did that until I finished both the entire story and the DLCs. Doing a Board playthrough this time as I didn't even know that was possible! I thought you'd just game-over after talking to Udom and uh... 'giving him what he wants', to avoid spoilers. Sad I won't get to see Carmen Imagawa in this playthrough though, as she's one of my favorite NPCs :c Love the videos Steve :3 Edit: Regarding FSR, for some reason it doesn't...

Also Spacer's Choice edition is fitting if you follow the lore. I'd even argue nVidia seem to be working with Spacer's Choice to make their 40 series cards ;) fake fps with dlss3 reminds me of their tricks with saltuna ;)

Even in the game's original version my 12700kf 3070 rig would get absolutely choked in places, starting with the botanical gardens where it would drop to like 30-40 fps.

The only real difference I noticed in the video is the remaster has brighter colours and slightly better shadows. That's not enough of a difference to warrent such a performance hit.
