How is this having so high system requirements??
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce 1080 Ti or AMD RX 5700 XT (which is faster than RTX 3060 for this gen comparison)

Additional Notes: SSD, 1080p/60 fps, High Quality Settings, Upscale Quality Setting

which means it's effectively 720p, because DLLS / FSR quality at 1080 renders the game at 720p.

I mean for ♥♥♥♥ sake - this game is coming out on previous gen consoles, garbage like vanilla Xbox One - so how on earth on PC even minimum is GTX 1070 (which is like 2x faster than XB One) and that's for 1080p with DLSS / FSR on performance setting, so jesus ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ christ (it's from 540p)...

How with everyone ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ about Gotham Knights didn't notice this looks to be far worse?

To be fair the GTX 10 series will be 6-7 years old by the time the games launches. As awesome as the 10 series is, there will come the time they become the low end compared to newer hardware/software (which is pretty much now). Not to mention newer games that are introducing new tech that require more processing power/driver support that the 10 series and older may or may not work with.

I know everyone wants to hold onto their rigs as long as they can before spending money to upgrade, but there comes the point it is no longer feasible for companies to continue support for older hardware even if they wanted to. At that point you have accept worse performance and putting some elbow grease into the in-game settings to get the best performance for your rig. Your results may vary depending on how much older your hardware is.

You have to remember that we PC users use all sorts of different components compared to the one size fits all approach consoles use for their hardware. You also have to remember that not all games will run great on last gen consoles (e.g: Cyberpunk 2077). Also games may be restricted performance wise to make them work on last gen consoles (e.g: FPS limits).

Gotham Knights is not available to last gen consoles and the hardware requirements are on par with current gen consoles.

Let's just hope they optimize the game well. The easy route for a developer these days is to rely on upscaling technologies like dlss and fsr to do all the work. Fingers crossed for those of us that have an average/low spec pc.

A 1080ti is high system for you ?
It's ♥♥♥♥ now. Actually, it's good if the game only need this for GPU.

It's shot now. Actually, it's good if the game only need this for GPU.

You're not very clever one, are you? 1080Ti was a flagship - what's important is relative performance, YOU TECH NOOB. 1080Ti is still faster than RTX 3060, matching RTX 2070S: https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/geforce-gtx-1080-ti.c2877 - learn few things about hardware before next time you open your uneducated yap.

Besides that is effectively for 720p - but you're also too noob to understand how DLSS and FSR work either.

https://store.steampowered.com/hwsurvey/ - 90%+ of steam has slower GPU than that, donkey 🤡

How people are possibly so unaware of reality... Or you're one of those rich idiots who think needing RTX 3090+ as hit 1080p 60 max settings is fine? What a complete uneducated tech noob clown... Yikes.

The 780Ti and 980Ti were flagship cards that got rendered pretty much obsolete once game tech advanced enough and driver support fell off (The 1080Ti is no different). Not to mention 1080p 60 in one game is different from another (e.g: Stardew Valley vs. Cyberpunk 2077). Sure you can run 1080p 60 (or higher) in both Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk 2077, but I can tell you with ease that your GPU is working a lot harder to achieve the same performance levels in Cyberpunk.

Game tech has advanced 6 years from when the GTX 10 series launched and while the 1080Ti is still an impressive GPU, it has to work even harder in newer high end games to achieve the same level of graphics and FPS. Eventually you have to accept that a GPU is no longer capable of giving you the same quality of performance it used to at launch (to include flagships GPU's).

Also your example of comparing a 1080Ti to a 2070S/3060 is not a good one for your argument as the 2070S/3060 costs half (or even less) as much as a 1080Ti and gives you similar performance even though they are lower tier GPU's per your source. Also relative performance is just on paper and while it gives you a rough idea it should not be an end all be all due to game to game performance swings and other potential factors.

In the end the discussion we are having today has happened before in the past when 980Ti became the "Recommended" or "Minimum" spec GPU for high end games and everyone complained. It is just now the 1080Ti's turn.

Believe what you want, but it's gonna be ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, mark my word - just like recent Gotham Knights - and that's despite looking so freaking last gen.

Plague Tale Requiem is demanding game but at least it's one of the best looking games to date. But when games look dated and last gen, yet have some BS system requirement - it's just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ yikes. If this wasn't Harry Potter game, everyone would be pissing on it, but some games have that heavy bias free pass for any BS

10xx series was a time where raster performance was all that mattered. Those days are long gone.

Modern gpu has hardware upscaling, video encoding/decoding, hardware raytracing and other compute engine separate from raster performance. Vastly different in how the current gpus and games are built in comparison. And the tech put into these systems has evolved significantly.

Also understand, minimum recommended spec is only a standard that a developer/publisher has tested their game on and promises to work. It doesnt mean a 10xx series card cant play the game, it might play the game fantastic or even better than recommended minimum spec. But it means the developers are not spending a dime to troubleshoot and promise compatibility on hardware more than half a decade old.

New games are released and tested against modern technology relevant to their release. 10xx series cards are not manufactured anymore. Imagine thinking a company should release a product and say it requires at minimum that you use a product that is out of production and discontinued.

So im glad people like OP can appreciate a good graphics card, but you dont know how to operate a business.

You're talking about a game that hasn't been released. You're just speculating, and yet, you're already salty :steamsalty:

Then why do you care so much to make constant arguments against anyone or the fact you made this post to begin with. Why not just ignore the game and move on with your life? Oh, I know why cause you actually want to play it yet want to complain because your outdated system might not be able to even run it. Welcome to PC gaming my guy, where eventually you will have to update your out dated hardware to keep up with current games. Don't like it then either get a better job to afford your hobby or stfu.

Because it has ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ red flags all over it. My outdated system? Not bending ass for games that run like ♥♥♥♥ doesn't mean I can't ran it, you narrowminded idiot. I'm just not stupid like you spend money one game that runs like ♥♥♥♥ on good hardware while looking like game from 2016. Stop being such corpo brainwashed sheep bending your ass for some corpo butt ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ 🤡

Idiots like you here is the reason they don't even bother optimizing ♥♥♥♥, because braiwashed sheep buy it anyway, then they cry on forum after giving them cash as if they cared since they got your money already, lol.

Take a look at all the whining in Gotham Knight about performance. WB couldn't care less about whining after they got your money already, but people thing they'll just optimize and fix ♥♥♥♥ after money has been collected lol.

You're just sad little miserable corporate victim, a person so brainwashed that if game doesn't run well on RTX 3080 while looking like game from 2016, he will buy RTX 4090 and they brag about here how it runs fine 🤣🤣🤣

Difference between you and me is that I have brain, self-respect and money. You it seems have just money. Have fun in you life being constantly abused by corpos like little ♥♥♥♥♥, lol

You're sooo salty dude :steamsalty:

1. Money is not an issue for everyone. Get a well paid job and stfu.
2. Hogwarts Legacy is developped by another studio, not the same from Gotham Knights. So, at this point, your argument is, like all the others, irrelevant.
3. :steamsalty:
4. You're crying about specs announced over Steam. For a lot of games, the specs displayed on the game's Steam page are not realistic. So just wait, before saying a ♥♥♥♥ load of crap. or do a quick google research.
5. :steamsalty: :steamsalty: :steamsalty:

Everyone is making fun of you on your thread, I'm pretty sur even the developpers are laughing while reading your ♥♥♥♥.
And everytime someone disagree with you, you stupidly insult him and add some other erroneous arguments. You are the redflag dude.

Wait for the game. After the release, you will be able to cry about optimization. Or maybe not, who know ? Right, nobody knows actually.


S-S-S-S-SAAAALTYYYY :steamsalty:
