No it isn't. They were wearing diapers when Redditors were making "This guy X" jokes or broken arms jokes, or pun chains ad nauseam. Stop making this another example of "It's those darn kids" when every generation is guilty of being corny as fuck.

Fingers crossed and all that, but what I've seen from this alone doesn't seem like that big of a jump from fallout 4 to be honest. What it does have going for it is it seems to have learned from other games of this genre of future human space exploration sci-fi like Mass Effect 1 and Andromeda, No Man's Sky, etc. and so they have inspiration to pick and choose features that they think works well for the vision they have.

Minimum specs are 2600x and rx 5700, so considering a 2080 is around the range of a 5700xt you should be fine.

Not really. Fuck em. Been on Reddit for 8 years and I've been disillusioned for a while. I just hope this place grows and I figure out how it works well enough to not feel the need to go back.
