| Hardstuck-Platinum said: Yeah, I know it looks worse even in the 30W mode but it can run without dipping into the teens can't it? That is by far what's most important. I'm not trying to say it means the Switch 2 is worthless, but it's clearly overpriced relative to the performance it's showing in CP2077. |
Without knowing the specific context of "drop in the teens" or the video you are referencing I can't say. Often these drops happen when people look for especially demanding (but unrealistic, if you're playing the game regularly) gameplay scenarios, and I am guessing we'd see something similar on the Rog Ally if duplicated. Having watched a few of these performance analysis videos typically switching to performance mode solves the issue, and still looks roughly comparable to Rog Ally settings.
Overall, in regular gameplay the Switch 2 version has felt like a stable 30fps experience for the majority of the time in the quality modes (handheld and docked), and a variable 30-40fps experience in the performance modes to me, for the majority of the gameplay.
If we are comparing handheld to handheld (Rog Ally not plugged in and lasting 2-ish hours with its 15W mode) then there are significantly more frame-rate drops into the low-20's (and below) on Rog Ally than the Switch 2. This makes Switch 2 a better handheld experience.
CP2077 is an overall much more polished experience on Switch 2 than the Rog Ally, in my opinion. You can tweak the Rog Ally (either by tinkering with CPU core counts, windows optimization settings, or using frame generation, etc.) to outperform it in terms of framerate (with visibly worse graphics/image quality settings) but most gamers don't want to do that.
And again, there will be performance patches. All versions of the game perform much better now than they did upon first release.
