Let's talk performance

How is the game performing? As in graphics, bugs, etc.

Im playing on ultra on an m.2 ssd. accidentally installed it og on my hdd and the load times were insanely long. Game boots up instant now.

graphics look great and im a consistent 60fps by the counter with a 7900xtx , 5800X3D and 64 gb of ram.

Yeah hdd is a no no for modern games.

Performance is better and there are less bugs.

[Beethy]

Game performs incredibly well, even on fairly old hardware. Virtually no bugs.

I'm on 1070ti and it plays great

Ive been having quite some performance issues. Framerate dropping to 15/20 fps and only increasing after restarting the game. No clue what is causing it though. Im running a Ryzen 7 7700X and a 3070TI.

Hey George I was having the same problem, I updated my GPU now its working great.

[insert food here]

7800X3D, 4070 Ti and 32GB DDR5 6000 CL30. Game installed on a fast NVMe SSD.

1440p with everything on max and using the DLSS4 preset K override through the Nvidia App. Even just using the balanced DLSS preset with DLSS4 and the game looks great. I'm getting 90-110 FPS in game when exploring around. No issues with any frame drops at all. Not a single crash or bug so far for me.

I had exactly the same issue, same graphics card which might be the culprit on this one. Depending on settings, I started with a different frame rate, (25-30 native resolution on ultra, 150+ at lowest res on low settings) but regardless of settings I had it on, the frame rate dropped over time to the 15/20 mark regardless of my settings. Refunded, will keep an eye on and maybe come back later if the patch it.

Having fairly older gaming laptop with i7 9th gen, 1 tb ssd and 2700 rtx and high settings working like a charm but I tried ultra and experimental and even though I did not notice so much difference in graphics , fps were dropping like crazy already so the sweet spot for me is high settings.

Only bugs 40 hours in, are minor texture and clipping bugs, some scenes where Godwyn was viberating around the room.

Other then that, no broken quests, which is a huge improvement from the first game, the first game still has broken quests.

With med/high settings with Vsync I get locked at 30fps no matter what, but unsync I get 80+

Ryzen 7 5800x / RTX 2080 Ti / 32gb Ram / 2 TB SSD

Linux CachyOS
Ultra Settings with DLSS Balanced
Average FPS: 90

Windows 11 23h2 newest Nvidia Driver
Ultra Settings with DLSS Balanced
Average FPS: 85-90

I prefer Linux for now

Resolution for both 3440 * 1440

Best optimization in years for game of this magnitude.

[Dagtag]

On a mixture of high-ultra i manage to get 70-100 fps(minor dips to 50 when first getting to town)
