FPS drop?
Is the PC version not optimized? My FPS drop dramatically when i'm in the first town on medium settings even sometimes on low. i don't believe that this game would be that demanding like cyberpunk 2077 for example when the graphics are not that good.

ASUS GTX 970
I7 4790K
24GB RAM

No. It's not. My 1080 Ti cannot go above 48 FPS except when no scenery and no screen effects (rain) are moving on screen.

It's not the PC version. It's the game. Welcome to ps5 times, where the same looking game suddenly needs twice the resources. Get used to it.

Then they sure got ready for one. There's not much else for an explanation.

How are you guys struggling with this game? i'm able to run the game just fine I only have a prebuilt gaming pc bought from best buy. It's a Cyberpower Gaming Pc with a Amd ryzen 3 3100, radeon rx 570, just the standard 8gb ram will look to upgrade it soon.

Unless you are playing on 4k which decreases fps a lot apparently.

Because that's how computers work. Just having "high end" specs doesn't guarantee things will work perfectly. Slight changes in hardware or even back-end software can have drastically different experiences. Consoles don't experience this because.. they're all literally uniformly produced with the exact same components and software.

I think Sophie 1 was the only decently optimized game LOL.

970 is a bit outdated.

I have no problem with FPS drop in any map. But it's dropping when I browse items in shops. Probably has nothing to do with GPU but the game's reading item thumbnails. I'm on a 3000m/s M2 SSD but it still have a problem.

Granted, this game looks beautiful, but it could be more optimized.
Struggling to hold 60 fps with major drops here and there with a 2080ti. 4K would need a 3090 minimum :steamfacepalm:

Check the settings. Some of them actually effect performance a lot this time. I get 60-70ish normally but can get like 100 fps if I drop the settings to low.

I didnt check them one by one so not sure on that, aside from screenspace reflections being very taxing.

Clearly there is FPS drops on the Steam Deck! :ccskull:

Which the Steam Deck is suppose to have a more power then the Switch and look how good the Switch runs over the Steam Deck.... :skullz:
Clearly PC version needs to be optimized for both PC and Steam Deck! What a joke!
