Yep, built a beast PC specifically to play NMS, gotta feed it some new meat at some point
does NMS take a beefy comp? ive played it on my slightly shit comp but thought it ran fine but just personally built a big beefy boy and wonder how much better it would look/play?
It runs great on a Steam Deck, even when using a higher-resolution external display, so I don’t think it needs anything really beefy. Though I’m sure you’d get better graphics.
I haven't built a PC in over 10 years so I may have gone a bit nuts with my specs. I figured if I was going to spend the money I wanted something that would last a while. I don't think NMS requires a beefy PC but it certainly looks and runs awesome. I started on the Switch and quickly decided that I wanted a better experience so, being a huge nerd, I went the DIY PC route. Teleports/warps take seconds instead of minutes, terrain and bases load before I land rather than having to exit my ship and stand there while the door appears on the base I just landed at. Overall, I highly recommend the beefy PC for NMS.
hmmmm
may have to DL and try it again on my new big boy
I also just built a new computer and the experience has been so much better and smoother. Built the computer to run AI models so it can definitely max out NMS. Having a blast after not playing since the start of covid when my old computer died.
