Horizon: Zero Dawn works out of the box (with the HDR setting turned on in game)

Surprised no one had mentioned it but Horizon Zero Dawn with HDR is pretty amazing. It WILL nuke your battery insanely fast, and while it can mostly run at ~45fps pretty well, it takes some tweaking to get it stable.

Eh, I don’t know if I’d go that far (uh, for me anyway, cant speak to others). The color fringing was the first thing I noticed when I got the “You got one of the first OLED” firmware update screen. But I’ll also admit notice and am bothered by those sorts of things than a lot of people (same with frame tearing, absolutely cant stand it).

That being said, that firmware update screen was one of the only times I’ve seen pure white text on a pure black background. Almost any other situation in SteamOS, or in the majority of games I’ve tried out, its not straight white on black, so I legit have not noticed it since.

But its definitely there.

Have had it for a pretty long while and played it heavily. When I first got it I did this same test and was getting around an hour and a half back then.

Oh I forgot to mention, I did run into that weird bug some people had been talking about with 3.5.5 where the GPU clock rate kept dropping to 200MHz. Turning off “Allow Tearing” fixed this for me.

Ordered mine (Canada) on the 16th about ~27 minutes after lunch, got delivery notice two days ago, said it would be here by 10pm today (Nov 22nd), it arrived just after 10am.
