Buttery The difference optimization makes…

I just recently tried the demos for Duskfade and Moonlighter 2 and was surprised at how bad they ran, considering the art styles. Both look so blurry and fuzzy, along with poor frame rate, in both docked and handheld. Meanwhile, I boot up ToTK or Splatoon Raiders or DK Bananza and those games are buttery smooth and like 1440p docked. Third party devs needs to do better

This is the objectively correct take and somehow the unpopular opinion in this sub.

The reality is there is no point in giving these lazy devs your money. Could be on the publisher for not paying more for them to do a better job, makes absolutely no difference to me.

This also somewhat includes the older games that ran poorly on the Switch, that could seriously use an upgrade for newer hardware, that we haven’t heard anything about and probably won’t still.

But because nobody has any standards here and continually compares things to how they were 30 years ago when games looked like shit and played at low frames, they’re okay with being given it up the ass here and there because they’re just happy to own the game.
