It took me a while to get into the game, but when the gameplay finally clicked I had a blast. Can't wait to see what the team will do next.

[@Technonova323]

It's definitely worth mastering for its unique movement. Hope they continue with this stuff, too.

Classic Technonova W

4:50 Actually, the Switch version can hit a consistent 60fps if you do something very...interesting. Put the game in Performance mode, but then go to your Switch settings and set your Switch's resolution down to 720p instead of 1080, and boom, game runs consistent 60fps on Switch. It's not something any other game really does but it's pretty neat.

[@Technonova323]

Yea, I actually discovered that after finishing my video thanks to Digital Foundry! I have a post about it scheduled later, but it's certainly interesting. Thanks for the heads up, nonetheless!

[@CornTreeBean]

W, I think I'll play it eventually

[@Technonova323]

Feel free to try out the demo as well! Also nice pfp

[@CornTreeBean]

Oh for sure, thank you, great video!

to be fair to the desvs the switch hardware may be 7 years old but the hardware is far old inside it the chips inside it came out around 2013 so it is really a decade old not to mention it's really slow and tiny 4gb of ram if some devs are having problems developing for the Series S because of ram bottlenecks (Series S hardware is better than most low end PC's) I can see the difficulty they would have with the Switch.

[@Technonova323]

I understand that as well. It's just one of many potential reasons for the game's lower performance.
