Performance

[Bleezip]

Anything I can do to make this game not run like ass? I'm playing on performance mode with everything on low and it still chugs and stutters at times.

I'm using this mod from the Nexus and it's helping me out.
"Tasty Potato (Boost FPS - VRAM Crash Fix and Improved Potato Quality)"

I hope it helps you out. I have used it for a week so far.

The fact you run other games means nothing as each and every game is fundamentally completely different.

Like I said, I'm able to run other more demanding games just fine. Yet Remnant 2 is the only game that I have to run at the lowest possible settings and it still suffers, PLUS it makes the fan run super hot.

I don't get it at all.

Chances are this is the only game you have that runs on Unreal Engine 5. I'd be willing to bet you're going to see similar performance on all UE5 games. The only ones released that I'm aware of are Fortnite, since it's made by Epic and Epic makes Unreal Engine, and Immortals of Aveum. Even those can't be compared with Remnant since both use aspects of UE5 that Remnant does not.

The best suggestion I can give you is to download the Graphics config tool on Nexus and the Allow Mods mod and mess with the settings in there to get a playable experience. Disabling SSGI and/or Nanite may give you a significant boost in performance. Unfortunately this game's config files are baked in the .pak files so you can't just create a text file and use that. Whether that's a UE5 thing or some insane choice the devs made, I don't know. I'll leave mod links below if you want to try.

Thank you for the actual response and help other than "Its your pc." I'm pretty sure you're right about this being my only unreal engine 5 game. Thank you for the links.

Performance in Remnant 2 is really weird sometimes. Heavy combat, solid 60 FPS. Standing in an open desert with nothing but fog and zero enemies, drops to 40's.

Obviously not a huge problem and is still perfectly playable, but that shouldn't be happening.
