Unplayable with 6GB VRAM..
I preordered before specs were made public. Tried to power through hence my playtime but most of it was trying to find settings that would allow me to play without the framerate dropping to the low teens hopefully a patch can help

Unless you specify the rest of your system specs and which settings you are trying to run, it's hard for people to provide a constructive response.

Laptop with RTX 3060 6gb vram ryzen 9 5900hx 32gb ram 3200 mhz as my initial post states i spent hours trying all possible combinations of settings even going as low as 720p which is horrid but no matter what i would always go above my vram at some point playing the game and the framerate would subsequently drop to the low teens. Mainly made the post to see if anyone else was trying to play with 6gb vram as that seems to be my main issue

System Req are false advertising. This turd is a unoptimized mess.
Return the game if possible.
Its a mediocre game at best.
Most people have GTX 1050/GTX 1050 ti/GTX 1060/GTX 1650/GTX 1660/GTX 1660 ti/ GTX 1660 SUPER/GTX 1070/RTX 3060 Mobile and AMD equivalent.
They made the game unplayable(<30 FPS) for most of people.
Imagine wanting to sell well but releasing a game that alienates most gamers.
These companies man. Ridiculous.

Imagine playing a game at 720p below 30FPS in 2023.
imagine that there is a time that the hardware is simply to old. Time to upgrade. thats the reason why PS5 was made. Why should companies stuck with old tech.
Anyway believe whatever devil you believe and stay in the past. I prefer to progress and move once in a while. As a gamer if I feel its about for a system upgrade I invest doing that.

At some point game devs will have to push forward with new and updated technologies.
You either start upgrading older hardware or you simply accept you wont be able to play the newer games.

Also no one is flat out saying you should upgrade all of it right now. As long as you even manage to upgrade a component every say 6 months you will be good.
The only truly hard hitting cost to bite is the video card.

Also to touch base on your above post. Its not always necessarily the issue that a hardware is too old. Sometimes its also the power it has. Per yopur example:
While 3060 is not that old, compared to a say 2070 super, it has a worse performance, and 2070S is older.

The visuals does not justify the bad performance.
Q: RTX 3060 mobile is too old?

It was released 2 years ago: January 12th, 2021.

The most popular gtx 1650 on steam is from 3 years and half: April 22, 2019.
GTX 1660 super is from ~ 3 years ago: Oct 29, 2019.

Still Imagine wanting to sell well at amark up price 60euros to 80euros but releasing a game that alienates most gamers and its a turd.
These companies man. Ridiculous.
you don't need to buy if you cannot afford it. Gaming is a luxus hobby. You either can afford to play or you simply stay at the games that you can afford to play. Thats simple. Devs should not care wether their games is for everyone because its not. Its their vision how their game is made. Anyway its clear where you and me stands there is no point arguing. I move on take care and servus.

Sure, but I guess you're not referring to the Luminous engine, whose development started a decade ago and has so far been used only in two games: Final Fantasy XV from 2016 (which was too criticised for its poor performance), and now Forspoken.
This isn't Crysis, which looked better than anything else in its day, but rather a dead-end development path and maybe the last game based on the Luminous engine.
A lot of current games look better than Forspoken and still have better performance.

Should be able to do 1080p with textures for models at standard and textures on low. Just keep in mind that some areas in the game leak VRAM, so they will always perform crap. E.g. Junoon has me filling up VRAM very quickly, but other areas it stays around 6.5GB (Got memory both at standard, and 1440p).

Ya i have everything on low the problem is it goes over my vram occasionally and drops to like 12 fps in some areas and easily eats at times 6.8GB vram at 1080p which is alomost a GB more than i have i just really hope a patch can alleviate the problem a little.

Are you also running 6GB vram?

Still buying a fairly new 1500$ laptop(Ryzen 9 5900HX + RTX 3060 mobile + 32 GBRAM) and not be able to play 720p 30 FPS is clearly not ok when we have 1440p 120/144/240hz, 4k 60hz/120hz standards in 2023.
The optimization is clearly a issue. Not the game being too advanced.
It not light years in graphics compared with new games like Metro Exodus EE, Far Cry 6, Cyberpunk 2077. In fact it look worse.

You need to note a few things:
Laptops do not perform the same as a desktop.
Generally speaking, your laptop does meet at the least the minimum requirements, so you should be able to play it fairly decently.
Now i am not saying that the game does not need some optimization, because it does, but it is not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. on a 3070Ti I have no issues running it with RT on high/ultra settings with 1440p.
Your PC config might also be an issue, keep that in mind. You could wait until some patches are out, but if then still it will not improve for you, you will see that its not the game but your hardware/system to a degree.

3060 is bad , you better get 3060ti next time ,, was many reviews tell you that don't buy 3060 normal is slow

and you are wrong and also laptop are very weak comparing with a pc , a friend with rx 6600 play easy peasy game at decent fps and you are complain for nothing

Lotsa copium in this thread. "Just upgrade" the game doesn't look as good as to be upgrade worthy. Plus, it isn't like OP is running a potato.

Here's a counter-example: Doom Eternal looks better and runs better on both lower- and higher-end systems.

Maybe you're blaming the gamers for the devs' shortcomings.

You cannot compare Doom to forspoken since they both use entirely different engines and features and the worlds are built entirely differently.

my 2060 laptop with 6gb vram runs ultra settings with textures reduced just fine without turning into teens

And? I'm a consumer, I don't care how they get there. What matters to me is the end result, what I get to play.

It's their job to figure it out.
