Nope it's not. Most of the other, much more graphically intensive games use much less resources of my GTX 1050Ti (for example: Company of Heroes 2, Witcher 3, Gmod, Prey, etc.).

Every time I boot this game, my internet connection quality goes really really bad and my GPU gets used up to 100% even when I just sit in the main menu. I am not that good at gamedev but I know enough to suspect that this game may use my PC resources for something other than rendering graphics and calculating physics.

There already were games in Steam that used their consumers' PCs for mining cryptocurrency. And the signs of these unscrupulous actions were identical to what I described above.

I'm not telling that it's really what this game does but I see no other explanation of such voracious PC resources (and internet traffic) consumption.

ah ok then. You completely crushed my arguments with your impenetrable, based answer. I accept my defeat and now I'm going to self-destroy.

If you go to Settings, click Video and turn Vsync on, it will reduce the FPS from 1000 to the refresh rate of your monitor, this fixed it for me.

or its because of the same reason DOOM Eternal has.
its because some newer kinds of GPUs/CPUs arent used to Vulkan for DOOM Eternal.
the same reason might be here for your GPU and this kind of Unity engine.

Yes, but does my internet get worse each time I launch the game?

If you haven't already, maybe try running the game in windowed mode? I was having the exact same issue and now it's working perfectly.
