I'm excited for backward compatibility. Finally, I can experience the Korok Forest at 12 fps instead of the standard 8.
Just play it on PC. It looks better at 4k too.
Lmao I bought my monitors in 2013. It's 1080p60 here. I have to use adapters because nothing has DVI out anymore. I don't even care about 4K. 1080p60 is good enough for me. Now excuse me while I burn a CD for my manual 90s car. Today's soundtrack is The Bends and the moonroof will be open.
do you know if they have a pc at all? or the pc version of the game?
I'm all for it but i hate this "just do on PC" take
I mean they definitely don't have a switch 2 so
If you manage to find a PC version of Breath of the Wild/Tears of the Kingdom, please be sure to disable your antivirus before running the .exe and report back with what it does to your PC.
Playing it on PC requires an emulator and a ripped copy of the game.
A ripped copy Isn't 100% a malicious one, as you can rip your own copy, which many people do to be able to play on pc
I know. My point was that there’s no PC version of the game; Anything claiming to be a PC version is likely malware. Playing on PC requires emulation.
We don't say that file extension here, bud.
Every year is the year of the Linux desktop when you're on lemmy
It's my favorite echo chamber lol But yeah, I don't think Linux will ever have the mass appeal that Windows and Mac do, and that's okay. Still, it's cool that gaming has been getting easier on Linux what with Proton and native support. It made it feel like I wasn't giving something up when I gave up Windows.
Hopefully they let the OG switch titles run with more horsepower.
It would be simpler for them to drop the clock cycle on the new hardware down to match the original hardware when running the BC titles, that way they don't have to do as much testing to look for side effects.
They can add better upscaling at a minimum.
🤞
