Your video is full of mistakes, sadly. The RT is required because it’s the base global illumination in the game. The Raytracing is required for any lighting in the game. The game is semi-open world in non-puzzle sections. So, you’re wrong there too calling it linear. The minimum “ray tracing” you’re referring to says “FULL RAYTRACING” right at the top. Which is PATHTRACING. Which isn’t possible on AMD GPUs. Of course you can’t promise 60fps without DLSS on an experimental path tracing mode. I generally love your videos but you and a lot of people in the comment section should have taken 30 minutes to an hour to do some research before you made this video.

Foricing RT is such a weird slap in the face to most people, imo it's been a complete gimmick to the consumer until VERY recently, and that's on a handful (if not fingerful) amount of games. Only game that springs to mind is CP77 and that had a complete RT overhaul to look amazing, but it at least had a non-RT option. When new exciting tech comes out, I feel like most people can admire it and notice it off the bat. Remember stencil shadows? The golden-era of 2000s, most games had it and you could at least appreciate what it was trying to do. All I remember from RT is those videos that compared it with non-RT options and people saying the only difference was the FPS hit. I can see RT being great for developers as I assume it stops the need for pre-baked lights, and I'm sure implementing a existing RT system to a scene is much easier, but my-god, to force it on everyone? There are still people that think RT is simply a reflection rendering technique, that lets you see your character in the windows, mirrors, and puddles of water.

[@thabangme6808]

People need to understand that a game engine is a tool, and just like any other tool, it's only as good as the person using it. A painter doesn't need expensive tools to create a masterpiece; skill and knowing what you're doing matter most. I've never really had a problem with the Unreal Engine itself, only the developers using it without proper knowledge to use it to its full potential. If you look back, the engine itself hasn't changed much from Unreal 4 to 5. I know the features that Epic Games showcases, but when it comes to reality, core fundamentals matter more. You can literally migrate your work from Unreal 4 to 5 with minimal failures, which should tell you that the core fundamentals haven't changed about the engine. I would actually put the blame on the devs' skill level on how to use the engine effectively. Plus, they add on tools to these engines that let the devs skip core fundamental skills and are automated in the most unoptimized way possible. Now, with upscalers and super resolutions (DLSS and FSR), it exacerbates the issue since it handles everything that should be done in a certain way. Upscaling on unoptimized code will lead to garbage in, garbage out. I remember the creator of Doom used to release the ID Tech game engine as open source once it was ready to release. Sadly, that stopped when he left id Software. Most game engines are really forks of each other, believe it or not. The Call of Duty engine was a fork of a fork of ID Tech. The Source engine from Valve was a fork from ID Tech, and Bethesda's engine was a fork of Valve's Source engine. With time, features are added, and the engine is mastered by the people who use it sadly this didn't happen, plus experience in these studios is either leaving or retiring.

I think it’ll still look great compared to high or ultra settings. For example I play The Finals regularly and I’ve switched the settings from ultra to low to medium and I can hardly tell the difference. I’m sure it’s the same with this.

So that also explains the huge size of the game on disk. All those textures take alot of space on disk. I expect the path tracing option to be so much more intensive so the 4070 requirement might make alot of sence realy soon :) Also, 16gb vram cards will become the norm soon.

As for ray tracing though, forget about that. As soon as I turned it to even the lowest RT, the framerate plummeted to 4 FPS! Needs DLSS performance to be playable at 60 FPS meaning you'd be running the game at 720p 🤮

[@theonewhogetsshot-v7k]

A 6600 beats the 2060 by a mile, weird how they consider them equal on the specs list

[@Ghostsoldier2112]

on my 3060 on 1080p high its actually holding up pretty great stable above 60 fps so far however! the system specs are indeed ridiculous

[@hvdiv17]

Your looking at the future of AAA gaming with Indiana Jones and its not the only game to have those kind of specs stalker 2 and ms flight sim 24 its time to upgrade pc gamers 8gb isnt enough anymore. AAA game requirements is going to be even higher when the next gen consoles launch in 4 years.

[@RomanSpinella]

This chart is an absolut joke. This morons wants you to run the game with RT at all times because its easy to do that than good cube maps/SSR. And also doesnt make sense at all the specs for each setting: The i7 10700k is WAY better than the R5 3600 (RX 6600 and 2060 super are in the same ball park), but then it jumps to a 12700k and a R7 7700, what? A R7 5700x should be capable of running this shit. Also a 3080ti is WAAAAAAAAAAY more powerfull than a 7700xt and i know that it comes down to vram...but they just should put a normal 4070 that has 12gb. When it comes to the "full RT" there are no AMD cards because they cannot do path tracing. Nvidia cards can barely do it, thats why frame generation (worst feature ever) is requiered.

[@sethvam]

If raytracing only works with dlss, what can our console brothers expect from their systems with amd tech?

[@UltraCasualPenguin]

Appears to be 1800p at locked 60fps. Only drops happen in cutscenes. Though RTGI quality is lower than lowest setting on PC.

[@gamingdoppelganger1414]

rent a center has good gaming pc from 30 to 50 bucks a week i give it a shot

[@BastianRosenmüller]

This game runs miles better then any UE5 game out there. Can play it in 1440p with my rx 7700xt on Ultra Settings locked 60 FPS.

[@nickn5419]

Hey Joe did you play Horizon yet

[@AmorVim]

6600, A580, and 2060 super are close enough. not 100% on the A580, since intel's gpu updates are wild

[@auraenchanted2503]

your wrong in thinking they arent equivalent sort of, the rx 6600 is basically am rtx 2060 super so thats fair the intel though is wildly off, i think they were smoking crack with the intel the intel 580 is.. not quite a gtx 1660 super

[@megilacuttyjones735]

All i know is that somehow the Series S and Series X somehow run the game at a vert stable 60 with ray tracing and all of that. I bet itll run great on most PCs with atleast the series S specs... I mean id think it would since reviews are saying it runs and looks great on consoles. One more day and we will know

[@H8Zexy]

as an amd fanboy, 4:36 i can confirm they are not equal lmao.. yea, these specs requirements are stupid lmao

[@smakfu1375]

Look, they already know this game is a trainwreck, which is why they're embargoing everything and allowing as little discourse as possible. I wouldn't touch this game until we have a couple of weeks of user reviews to look at. I have no doubt that the usual access-media suspects will shill for this thing, but I suspect this will be a repeat of Outlaws and Veilguard. Nothing associated with Disney Lucasfilm has been worth a damn for the last decade, and it's been a long time since Bethesda shipped something other than hot-garbage. As for the specs, yes, they're absolutely redonkulous (and nothing I've seen in the trailers justifies the specs from a visual standpoint).

[@dweisz2633]

Oh, 1 more helpful thing if you have played or playing Starfield for pc you'll find most of the same re-work arounds work best to fix this games problems.

[@abdourefes3326]

Indiana Jones and the Great PC requirements

[@FrostFire1987]

Jesus...I'm running I7 11700 pc 4.2ghz 32gb ddr4 ram Water cooled Samsung 980 nvme SSD Oc 10gb RTX 3080 and it's running stalker 2 in 1440p on ultra at about 75/100 FPS but this is a joke...

[@andyl4683]

2060 is comparable to a 5700xt so your right. Although a 5700xt has no ray tracing so that’s probably why

[@andiundertaker]

They went full greed and lazy. You now have to be stupid rich to play a game…

[@acetown2263]

The Intel to AMD cpu comparisons are way off, as well as the Nvidia vs AMD gpu comparisons. Either the game has very little AMD hardware optimization, or they just threw random names at the spec list.

[@Adromelk]

DLSS and frame generation have become a crutch for lazy devs and greedy publishers instead of what they were supposed to be. Life for older gpus.

[@joseijosei]

Joe, this time... I have some hope. See: those are requirements for 1080p 60 fps with a 2060. Yes, low settings, but what if you use DLSS? Would that let you use medium? That GPU is a lot worse than what you find on a console, by a really long shot. It's not even close, and altho they are naming a not so old i7 there, the Ryzen 3600 is there too. That CPU performs like an i5 8600k, and it's barely better than what you find on consoles, by like 5% to 10%. So... for 60 fps and native 1080p, this is looking far better than Silent Hill 2, Hellblade 2, Monster Hunter Wilds, Dragon's Dogma 2, etc. On top of that, them asking for a ray tracing compatible GPU there is only making me think they always have RT on, which would make this look even better. It would make sense because the jump from minimum to recommended IS F*CKING INSANE. What uses a lot more GPU and CPU the higher settings you use? Ray tracing.

[@matane2465]

I have a first-generation steam deck, so I tend to run games at lower settings just so they'll run smoothly. I never cared that much for high-end specs. A better-looking game doesn't necessarily mean a more fun game to play.

[@Pidalin]

but problem is that in today games, graphic settings have 0 impact on FPS, especially in id tech engine, only things that really change FPS are - resolution and upscaling, that's a problem

[@zuffin1864]

The worst idTech engine game is quake champions but that hardly counts as it's a hybrid engine. Also both doom games have multiplayer modes that run great so it's not a multiplayer issue
