Other AAA games have hand holding I guess...

AAA literally just refers to games published by big publishers that are large scale and have huge budgets.

I'm aware, though these days it's more like published by heavily "Yeah I've played games, I was the best at pong in elementary school" shareholder influenced publishers and devs that make totally out of touch decisions and then lay off all the staff that were responsible for anything in the game considered good right after the game gets bad press.

And most of them are shit

For all the "From Soft games don't hold my hand" I see, it sure seems like everyone just uses a guide anyway.

"But I didn't" Yes you did.

[-] Grass@sh.itjust.works 1 points 8 months ago

Ok sure... Let's say bugs and incomplete development, shit performance on latest hardware, fixes in a future update tba instead.

This is a genuine question, not a "gotcha" shitpost or w/e because I haven't played it a while. Did the microstutter in ER get fixed?

Tbh I have over 250 hours in elden ring and I didn't even know what you're talking about.

I would assume so by now. Valve patched it initially for Linux users via proton but I remember my windows friends complaining about it when the game released. The last time they played to assist another friend who had just started was when the arena update came out and I didn't hear any complaining then. If they still have it with the dlc coming soon I'd be surprised. On previous titles I would expect them to stop patching after the dlc has been out for a bit, but they did patch the previous titles a while after elden ring came out when someone found a critical security flaw in the network code that affected all of them.
