And this is coming from someone who loves Hollow Knight, 9 Sols, Blasphemous and 9 Years of Shadows... but damn it feels as if this subgenre is 90% of all metroidvanias nowadays.

Is there a way to enable TV-specific low latency mode for the Series X dashboard?

I've been trying to use my Series X as a Blu Ray player as of late. With the auto low latency config option turned on, every time I launch a game my TV switches to "Game Mode" picture settings (more brightness, less latency, neutral colors).

Thing is: unless I'm missing something, the dashboard is considered "non-gaming content" so it defaults to the picture settings I use for movies (less bright, warmer colors, less interpolation), therefore turning everything into a 24 fps juddery mess and making the system navigation/store browsing experience a nightmare.

Is there a way to make my dashboard also enable Game Mode like it happens on the PS5? That way it would stay enabled throughout the dashboard and games and only get switched off when launching streaming apps or Blu Ray content.

I'm trying to build a pistol/shotgun wearing sneaky character that's good with social skills but I seem to be having a hard time with the actual sneaking around part.

I have 3 ranks in stealth, use armor as light as possible (or none at all), reconstim when possible and just got a boost pack with chameleon, but I still seem to get detected if an enemy as much as glance at my overall direction.

In previous games at least enemies who were a few rooms away didn't get aggro, so if I failed stealth I could always have a second chance after the current encounter. Here it seems a single enemy can telepathically alert the entire base to my precise location and they all swarm me like angry wasps.

I understand how the noise/light mechanics work and that stealth in Starfield isn't supposed to be trivial like in previous Beth games, but I feel like it's too damn hard. Or I'm doing something wrong.

At the very least I would like to be able to peek corners without getting instant caution/danger.

Tips are appreciated!
