Good game, world's worst performance (thanks unreal engine)
I'm a very passionate Souls series fan and this game so far feels amazing and seems like it'll be one of the best after patches. The issue is just that: after patches.

I know what game development is actually like and from my experience Unreal Engine is 50% of the reason these launches go so wrong. Like my god, AAA devs really just choose an engine by how badly it scales with anything but the highest end hardware, and encourage horrible development habits that make it a nightmare to optimize deep in development.

Please stop using Unreal Engine for everything.

understand your hardware, the control panel settings and the game settings and youll have no issues.
8750H and 1060 is playing flawlessly

Lies of P uses Unreal Engine, zero technical issues.

I'm using a 3050, which by all intents and purposes *should* be able to run a game like this at the very least on low settings like every non-UE release (IE: RE4 remake), but it doesn't.

It's cute to think the solution to all performance issues is going "actually it's your own fault for not being able to run the game", but it's just not the case.

Every engine sucks if the game isn't optimized. I think the issue is more that many devs are reliant on these tools to such an extent that their overall knowledge of coding isn't good enough to actually do so.

I'm not sure you've played any other games if you think this one runs badly.

It's not that it can't be done for sure, but my god i don't trust these companies one bit to be able to make it work. The engine is made specifically for the highest end hardware, and most devs are clearly just expecting it to optimize itself. If you read up about their new techs (lumen, nanite, etc) it's literally all people thinking those are just things for the engine to optimize itself, it's insane.

so stop buying those badly optimized games, 40k people in game, 30 something % positive reviews. Wtf are those numbers???

Lies of P uses UE4... UE5 causes a lot of ♥♥♥♥ ups with newest hardware...

According to your profile you bought the game. Why did you buy it then???
Aldroen Oct 13, 2023 @ 9:12am 
UE3 was great, UE4 was good but could be better, UE5 is absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ filled with tons of crap nobody cares or needs and only looks good on paper.
