Quoting: GroganI've only had "0.49" from git (late to the party here) which probably isn't much different than 0.48 at this time, but I can't say I notice any performance problems. My hardware doesn't break a sweat for this. (amdgpu/RX 570/mesa 23.2'ish) and it doesn't feel like I'm running into any cpu/gpu underutilizing behaviour.

Obviously it highly depends on the draw distance and other settings and where you are in the game. Did you increase it from the default? Are you still in the start area? The larger cities have a lot more things to display. One of the consequences of the way the assets were made is an abnormally high number of draw calls.

Quoting: Groganand works well.

That's a matter of definition. The main issue is that the game assets are highly unoptimized so without mods the game runs worse than Skyrim.

To improve the situation there are some mods that fix the worst offenders https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/45399 [External Link] and https://www.nexusmods.com/morrowind/mods/45384 [External Link]

A small element of it is also the accuracy system, which as any XCOM player would know a "99%" hit chance right in their face can still result in you missing a shot and losing a soldier.

99% miss, 99% miss, 99% miss, … Who doesn't know that feeling. Don't mistake the hit chance for a probability, otherwise you're going mad, it seems to be some arbitrary unit/scale thing.

Still no Linux update on GOG. Very disappointing.

Quoting: eridanired123Easy, there is a bot that tells if you are one…

I thought that was a tool to get free training data for Google's AIs and to get more data for targeted ads.

Found an article about the reddit posts I mentioned: https://www.theverge.com/2023/2/12/23596535/steam-deck-rgb-mod-warning [External Link]

Quoting: PenglingI briefly misread "A.I. management sim" as "A.I. marriage sim" at first - thankfully the real game sounds more interesting and less strange than that!

I've read today that an animal shelter staged a marriage ceremony when they finally found someone willing to take a badly trained dog after several years.

Quoting: melkemindIt was just a matter of time before someone put RGB on a Steam Deck. It's like the law of PC gaming.

Someone already did it. There were a few posts on reddit – even including instructions that were hastily redacted after the SD was bricked due to the increased power draw from the internal connections that were (ab)used.
