      Forspoken works on the Steam Deck, albeit with longer load times than PC or PS5. I think the DirectStorage feature is simply ignored if not supported by the system, so I wouldn’t worry too much.

      That’s definitely one of the things I was thinking when I was loading this game in about 10 seconds. “I wish this game would load in 2 seconds or less”

    As one of the few people who actually thoroughly enjoyed Forspoken and has 100+ hours in it, going from that game to D4 felt rather jarring. Still does. As the game from a much bigger company, with a much larger budget and development time, I really expected it to have instant fast travel at release. Especially since they kept using the huge OW as a selling point…

    I want all games to support it

    ive yet to try it on pc, but my ps5 games load so amazingly fast, i cant believe it. Fast travel in Spider-Man is literally just a second fade to black.

    also, blizzard… where is my ray traced lightning and shadows?

      You know I just realized we didn’t get Ray tracing on this one…feel like a fixed perspective game would be great for that tech

    More ideal would be supporting offline play for faster loading queue times and stability.

      Blizzard will never allow you to play their game apart from their servers. 0% chance
