Building Shaders again with latest patch v1.0.4.0

[🍃🪻🪷Sylvie🩵🍸🍵]

I don't understand why I have to rebuild shaders again with latest patch v1.0.4.0. Also, the loading time is still slower on PC, compared to PS5 version.

Only took mine about 6 minutes or so to complete. Down a ton since launch.

He's not lying. Mine was done in about 10 minutes tops, didn't count but it was A LOT faster than launch.

EDIT: I mean, he might be lying since he doesn't own the game but still, maybe a troll who accidentaly was right kekw.

Why would I lie? It literally took ~6 or so minutes. Others have stated ~5 minutes as well.

Wife owns the game on her steam account, simply sharing my experience loading it up and testing it.

This happened the last update. Much quicker building than when it's a driver update.

Kinda simple: they changed things regarding shaders (supposedly to make shader related things better) so the shaders have to be recompiled.

There are numerous reasons to do that. Usually (in other games) you might not really notice it.

But in TLOU
you do

Your GPU doesent speak C## and needs instructions that it can work with. When a game is changed in its state, it needs updated instructions.
Your CPU therefor needs to compile all the shaders again whenever a GPU driver change happend or something in the gamestate itself.

Wife has the game on her steam account, just reporting what I experienced after patching and launching it.
