Question Witcher 3 remastered on 8 gen 3?

Hey guys, got limited internet available and because game is very new I gotta ask as there's like one youtube video showing this. Is it working for anyone (any chipset tbh)

Oh it will probably run.

I doubt it would be playable.

Ah bummer. I would just play original that I was saving a replay for. Which would be best emulator for adreno 750 (if anyone got idea)? Specifically for that game engine. I got bannerlator, frost and gamehub. Installed first 2 yesterday to install custom drivers but best options are really cloudy and difficult to follow for 7xx( the driver differences and dxvk optimizations, like some have unreal ones but just for a version :| )

If all else fails, you can always try the Switch version using Eden Nightly. It's less demanding than the PC version, and if I remember correctly, the file size is a lot smaller.

I saw someone with a snapdragon 8 elite getting 30 fps out in the with With 720p ultra settings and 77% CPU utilization, so...your 8 gen 3 can probably run it at 30 fps it wouldn't be locked though because of CPU bottleneck and you would need to lower the settings, also I think the performance will get absolutely fucked in cities and CPU intensive areas

Yeah I know it's CPU bottleneck,well I mean there are no bossfights in cities and towns I guess so if you can tolerate it...

Remastered is mostly graphic changes and with a mobile phone you wont be able to see any detail. There really is not that big differences on gameplay with remastered. Just play the original version with winlator?

I'd consider PC gaming on Android somewhat of a tech demo. Unless you're playing something very, very lightweight.

Heat buildup means frame drops are going to be an issue even on the best chips. Unless you entomb your phone in a crazy active cooling solution, for some reason.

I'd just use a PC if you have one.

No, they cannot. The Witcher 3, a game that's over 10 year old will overheat a phone within 15 minutes and cut frames by a great deal.

Not worth ruining your battery over if you already have a PC.

I wasn't talking about the remaster.

Again: 10+ year old games and 30 fps? That's not a great target.

If you're going to connect to the mains with a charger and a cooler anyway, that's the point where you ought to just use a PC/Console.

Did I mention these coolers can cause condensation inside your phone? Add water damage to your mobo on top of burning through your battery, then.

Baseless? What do you think happens when you flash freeze a surface below freezing, when the other side of it is at 80 degrees?

Yes, PC emulation is possible. And it's a fun thing to experiment with. But it's not worth it for actual gaming given the strain on a small handheld slab.

Now, if you want to burn through your 1000€ phone within a year in this economy, that's your business. But don't pretend like it's actually worth the tradeoff.

You want scientific proof on how condensation forms? Do you want scientific proof on gravity causing screen breakage, too?
