Can i run it?
Hello!

¿will a RTX 2060 be enough to run the game? i wanted to comeback to the game, but many updates later made me wonder if i still can play it.

note if you never played v2 before? just start fresh. yes you can resume v1 saves, but do not. it's so different, there's a learning curve, and it will hit you all at once if you're just <bonk!> 38th level or whatever. much more fun to start fresh, maybe pick a start you haven't before (if you didn't do all 3)

you'll be fine. welcome back, choom!

Of course. Should run fine at High settings too. Only issue that may come up is with that 6GB VRAM buffer in certain areas, if so you may need to bump down textures to medium, or use more aggressive upscaling.

My OG pc exploded, literally, so yeah. this new pc made me wonder if i can play it.

yeah, so long as its 1080p and any form of ray tracing is disabled. screen space reflections down to medium, everything else can stay on high. all assuming your cpu is decent.

like the first person said, lower texture to medium if you're reaching max vram usage. you'll know when you get the infamous menu lag.

yeah, even with a good pc i would not touch ray tracing as i do not like forcing the pc to work more than necessary, the game as downloaded so imma gonna try.
download nvidia frame gen mod enabler and you can run everything high except ray tracing on 2k and get 70-80 fps everywhere.

Depends on what resolution you'll be trying to play at and what your target for fps would be whether or not you'd deem it playable. 1080p with dlss on, you should be okay.

DUDE it runs on a steam deck, you can run it , but not in 4K 60 obviously

even if i could, i would not, as i was always poor and having a massive jump in quality would make me unconfortable.

Played thru Ps4(SSD) to Ps5. RTX 2060 I had ran it slightly better then my Ps4. Had no issues on latest updates, I think most of setting were on Med/High displayed at 2560x1600 (its 3840x2160 Monitor)
Crowd and Shadows turned down.

Got 16gb 4060 on sale now... which hasn't felt like a huge leap for some games...
