Robust luck
Sadly, that is simply the subsequent mishap in an extended line for PC gamers. The Final of Us Half 1 lastly turned obtainable on Steam, sadly leaving many customers lower than impressed.
Many customers have been plagued with crashing video games and excruciatingly lengthy loading instances for shaders, which take one to 2 hours each time you begin the action-adventure zombie sport.
I hadn’t performed The Final of Us since 2013, and since I now not have a PS4, I assumed trying on the Steam remake can be an effective way to refamiliarize myself with the superb story. Sadly, I didn’t have as a lot enjoyable this time round. Caught with ridiculous wait instances, I used to be discouraged nearly instantly. I additionally discovered that not even my RTX 3070 helped issues, as I used to be caught on 30fps for more often than not and plagued with fixed crashing.
It’s upsetting to see such an excellent sport have such an terrible port to PC, however if you have a look at this mishap and the value hikes, it looks as if Sony doesn’t care an excessive amount of about gamers who don’t have a PS5.
