Oh my god, I can’t wait to spend 30,000 € on worthless coins inside of a click and wait game. Now on PC. I used to use the phone for that. 🥰

I generally wonder, how the hell can you get almost a billion dollars and still not have a functioning product after 13 years?

It’s really unoptimised. From what I could gather, it’s CPU bottlenecking massively.

Call PS3 and Xbox 360-era army slop what you will, but at least it had functional graphics, no noise, no visual bugs, no temporal smear, and most of the time it worked on release.

IMO, most modern games are so bad that Brown Army Slop™ looks good in comparison.

You can criticise Death Stranding for a lot, but it had the goddamn bollocks to do something innovative and interesting with movement.

I dislike Linus Drop Tips, his “reviews” and questionable attitudes.

The fact that a custom designed windows running native games is still worse than GNU/Linux and translation for every single operation is astonishing.

This interface looks beautiful. Perfect for a DIY media centre.

I call it media centre because I hate the word Smart TV and everything it stands for.

Man, prices are going to be so nice once the bubble bursts.

I just want to say, I find it so goddamn funny that we got Half-Life 3 before Star Citizen. Anyone remembers that?

IMO: additional CD/CI pipeline and according QA, paired with the technological regression we’ve seen in real time graphics over the past few years and videogames being developed in sweatshops with a carbon-nanofibre budget, while ads get all the budget is a poor foundation in general.

Why commit to anything more than the bare minimum, when you need to desperately try to reach that while the circumstances are against you?

Well, you can play the game without it, as others have stated, you should really leave it on. First of all, all of that work needs to happen then later when you’re playing the game, which is just going to lead to a subpar experience with random framerate drops that cannot be explained. From Software’s Elden Ring had a problem at launch with that. Every time a new effect or literally anything in the game was done, you’d wait for half a second and that would sometimes make your game into a slideshow for seemingly no reason. Or the Nier replicant remake wouldn’t play the pre-rendered cutscenes if you didn’t enable it. Most games don’t care, however. But for the sake of stability, my recommendation is to leave it on. It only takes a long time when you boot something up the first time, and with modern games being unoptimised as well, do yourself a favour and leave it on.

I’d test if the system correctly recognises hardware encoders and decoders on your graphics card.
You can do this by running mpv media player with the following command:

mpv --hwdec=nvdec your_yideo_name.mp4

If you then press I while the video is playing inside of MPV and it says “nvdec” next to “Video:” and “h264” or “h265”, it works.

If this works and you are still experiencing problems with game streaming from Sunshine, then you have misconfigured Sunshine.

If it does not say that, or it refuses to start because it can’t find NVdec, you need to install the (older) proprietary Nvidia drivers as you have an older 10 generation card, which aren’t supported by the integrated free software drivers that most distros use to talk to nvidia GPUs.

For the future, I mean this in a very kind way: Please be more specific and concise when describing your problems. From your question, I don’t know if you mean that you want to optimise your system in general, if you have trouble using it as a host for game streaming, so you run Sunshine on it and play the game on another device, or if you want to use it as a client for game streaming, so another machine is running the heavy game and you’re just streaming it to the “low-spec” machine. Reason is we’re strangers on the internet. We don’t know what’s going on with your system because we don’t have access to it. We don’t even know what your system looks like. So you need to be very detailed and very precise with what you want to accomplish and what problems you currently have.
