hows performance now?

[Cake]

i stopped playing this game long time because of random fps drops is that fixed now?

[River]

I was having a major issue with crashing since day 1 and it has finally evened out. I also see other people who didn't have issues in previous patches who are now having major issues with performance.

So yes, but actually, no.

I still get stutters sometimes with my RX 6800 XT when loading a new area.

My game no longer stutters, but I have play at 1080p or I get FPS drops with anything higher, and even then, in rain + wooded areas I get FPS drops.

The game just isn't optimized well. I have a 2080 Super, well above the recommended specs and should be able to play at 1440p.

So long as your computer is up to the challenge, the game will never stutter. My computer is near 5 years old at this point, and I can run the game on max settings with zero issues. If you haven't upgraded your setup, then your performance will remain the same.

Runs without stutters for me at 1440p 60 FPS, used to stutter before the patches.
Unfortunately, not everyone has the same experience, it still seems to happen for some users. So hard to say for sure.

Still stutters for me.

Still stutters for me. It's really bizarre. It even leaks over into sekiro somehow? Like if I play elden ring and then switch over to sekiro, sekiro will have the exact same stutter that elden ring has until I restart my computer. Sekiro works fine as long as I don't play elden ring.

That is strange and interesting. This is reproducible every time?

Still stutters for me, I have an rx6600 and I still get consistent fps drops and stutters

Every time. It's very strange and I don't know how to make it make sense.

it's super weird yeah, I've had something similar happen on my laptop where after playing and colsing the game my pc would stop recognizing the GPU, like there wasn't one at all. Any game i tried to play afterwards would just flat out tell me my pc did't have a graphics card. I fixed it by uninstalling. It happened again tho after the last patch and i did the same thing. very weird.

Most users let software install their video drivers for them, and make "optimizations" to the game which are, unbeknownst to them, driver-level changes which then cause conflicts with the in-game settings, thus causing such awful performance.

Like you, I play at 1440p, but on a 1080 Ti and an 8086K at stock voltages. I experience no issues worth complaining about.

For someone with any RTX-level card to be having issues means something like what I described above is happening. Either that, or they're just bad at PC management and have dozens of pieces of bloatware running in the background that they refuse to acknowledge, admit, or get rid of despite it all being completely pointless. ("Game optimizers", Windows own "Game Mode", "GeForce Experience", etc.)

I had screen tearing and weird lighning in the underground areas and on some graces/boss doors
that seems to be gone now same for the "loading areas" where the game sometimes stopped for ~5 seconds but that rarely happened and mostly while traveling on horse to new areas
even then those are minor issues
generally speaking just a nuisance
compared to AAA games nowadays this ran superb

[Dam Stark]

crashes every hour, framerate all over the place, zone load stutter a bit better, shader stutter unchanged.

Yes, those were good times back then. Sometimes I just have to stop and wonder "what's going on here?! Why did things change so much? Where did all that time go?" I miss those times.
