    The main setting I want is to be able to play at 1080p full screen. My laptop is 4K but can’t handle starfield at that resolution. It was running at 10fps rendering at 50% and upscaling, and looked like dog shit. I had to change windows to 1920x1080 (instead of the native 4K) to run the game at a 30fps - and at medium everything. Who makes a game where you can’t change the full screen resolution?

      I have to throttle the fuck out of my laptop cpu and gpu to keep it from blowing itself up. This is a more effective heat and stress test than fucking prime95. I’d rather get shitty framerates at 1080p than have to buy a new laptop 6 months from now when my laptop dies from overheating like the last 2 ones I owned probably did. For fuck sake why couldn’t they have done a better job optimizing.
