In the gaming industry, the PC always appears as the best opportunity to check out titles with the maximum they can deliver in terms of graphics. However, to embark on adventures with everything maxed out, you need to have a powerful machine that can live up to the demands of each game.
In this scenario, players hope that companies do good work in optimization, as a poorly optimized title often presents problems even on the most powerful computers. In fact, many titles are marked as games that ran on a few machines, with many players complaining about performance issues. Check out a list of 10 games that made a lot of computers ask for water!
Red Dead Redemption 2
Red Dead Redemption 2 is a technical masterpiece and one of the best games ever released. Extremely beautiful and absurdly impressive in many ways, the game demands a lot from PCs.
Gigantic and highly detailed, Rockstar’s game is quite heavy, and especially at the time of its launch, it faced many computer problems. It took – and still is – a powerful machine to check out Arthur Morgan’s journey.
Cyberpunk 2077
Cyberpunk 2077 had a lot of issues upon release, and a large part of that was because of the futuristic RPG’s poor optimization. Even having a really powerful machine, many players encountered problems and were unable to check out the title. Nowadays, the situation is better, but the game still demands a lot to run.
Assassin’s Creed: Valhalla
Assassin’s Creed Valhalla can deliver really impressive scenarios with the great environment, something that is already characteristic of Ubisoft. However, to be able to venture into the Nordic lands you cannot own any computer. Especially if you want to run with everything maxed out, it’s best to prepare for the high requirements.
Watch Dogs Legion
And since we’re talking about Assassin’s Creed, let’s stay in the same house. Watch Dogs Legion, the third installment of the Ubisoft hacking franchise, is yet another game from the French giant that requires a very robust PC.
At ultra, with ray tracing and everything the game has to offer, you’ll certainly need a high-end camera to see the beauty of London.
Final Fantasy XV
Final Fantasy XV is a pretty heavy game due to a number of factors including its world and other effects present in the game. You’ll find that it can be quite difficult to get the 4k and 60fps mark on the adventure.
Dying Light 2
The desperation caused by Dying Light 2 is not just that of running away from zombies in a devastated world, but also that of being able to play the title on ultra. With the recommended requirements, you will still be below what you need to really get the full potential of the game.
Resident Evil Village
Resident Evil Village shows you where fear lies, as Ethan Winters embarks on a journey filled with action and terror. To revel in the horrors of Capcom’s game, you also need a machine that’s up to the task.
However, if you get the maximum resolution with 60 fps, the result will be really satisfactory.
Far Cry 6
Ubisoft completes its “hat-trick” here. Marking the list with three different franchises, the French giant shows that it does not give peace to PC players. Being the heaviest game in the franchise, Far Cry 6 demanded a lot from the machines, especially for the year it was released.
Metro Exodus
Metro Exodus has always been recognized as an extremely beautiful game, which has been confirmed even more with the Enhanced Edition. However, the beauty of the game obviously doesn’t come easily, even more so in the enhanced version. With DLSS 2.0 support and mandatory Ray Tracing, your PC is sure to be begging for water.
Control
Control is a game that impresses with its visuals and also stands out in terms of ray tracing, however running it at maximum is really not an easy task. Even powerful computers can experience fps drops and some performance issues.
