    That’s actually huge as pc gaming becomes more and more divided…

    If you’re a generation or two behind or running low RAM, it doesn’t matter how well it runs on brand new $5k machines.

    You can filter any game based on matching specs and see how it handles.

    I’d love to see them separate ratings for “technical” and “enjoyment” tho, but we’re still pretty far from that level of granuality

    As long as there’s a quick check mark for steam deck, steam machine, steam frame and then “custom” this sounds like a great idea

    No! How dare they add useful features! Why won’t give they give MY shitty online game store a chance by not providing customers with useful tools!? This is so unfair! I gotta sue them!

    I blame Nioh 3 for this ;)

    An amazing game wrapped in unacceptable frame pacing, dips and lag. Took me over 3 days to go from total disaster to acceptable performance, using 4 different third party software and lots of trial and error with infame settings. I would have loved to know what rip people played on when claiming it as “smooth” XD

    I really hope that it either automatically populates the field or is a one and done type of thing or else people won’t use it.

    Also this articles product placement was really weird and jarring to me. 3rd paragraph is basically just an ad read.

      Steam already keeps a client-side log of the device’s hardware specs. Hopefully it will just be as simple as letting Steam automatically parse through the relevent bits and attach it to the review.
