I'm still rocking an ancient i5 2500K and I've never encountered a CPU bottleneck in any game EXCEPT No Man's Sky. Rewriting the .ini file to up the number of cores the game uses did result in faster performance, so it was definitely a CPU issue.

But that's a shit game so who cares?

While you wait for Cyberpunk, ICJ, Starcrawlers is on sale at GOG. It's not based on Earth, but it's cyberpunk in every other way, with a surprisingly dark story. Starcrawlers and Xulima are the two best blobber RPGs on the PC today, IMO.


Ha, I haven't started NMS yet but it's good to know that if it runs like shit I am not to be surprised! And I think I do have Starcrawlers, I just need to fire that up and take a look.
