Don't buy. This game has the worst performance it could have.

[Dobbelklick]

It's pathetic. The game looks nice, but the animations are choppy, the loading times shouldn't even be there. The performance just sucks. How the hell can a development team be fine with this work. :/

[Pr0meth3us™]

Runs fine whatsoever, only the small pauses between "loading" times are a little annoying which shouldn't exist in the first place. Other than that what a great adventure it is with beautifull hand painted graphics

[Trosski]

I haven't had any issues. I am loving the story, and the point and click seems very responsive. Over all I like this game. I am having a bit of an issue with the voice acting, but it's nothing I can't get past.

[amers1096]

I've had no problems either. It's a beautiful game and I'm really happy to have bought and played it. I hope you guys can get it sorted out. You're missing out.

have performence problems with a GTX , slow cursor,

running on low doesn´t help.

[kalirion]

I have an i7-920, Radeon HD4850, 12GB RAM.

No cursor performance problems, but the game would often stutter momentarily when the only thing happening was Geron walking across a non-scrolling scene.

Well, the art sure was pretty though, even if the animations sucked (particularly the close-up ones.)

[TiLT]

I just played the first 10 minutes of the game and got unbelievable amounts of stuttering, with a framerate occasionally well below 1 FPS and a cursor that jerks and jumps across the screen at the same rate as the framerate. This kind of thing shouldn't happen in a 2D point & click game. I'm a developer (previously having run my own game company), so I should know. All my drivers are fully updated, and I have absolutely no performance issues in any other games.

My specs are:
Intel i7-3820 @ 3.60 GHz (8 CPUs)
32 GB RAM
SSD HD
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780

So, who's going to be the first to call my system slow? Any takers? Anyone?

Seriously though, there should be no reason for someone with my kind of rig to have to dial down any of the options in an adventure game. Something is wrong here, and it's not with my system. There's probably some kind of compatibility issue causing a bottleneck in single-threaded code. It could be related to one particular feature that could be modified in the options, in which case it would be a good idea to identity it.

I had the same stuttering problem but when I disabled the texture compression and the HD videos the game became quite smooth all of a sudden.

CPU: Intel Core i7-3632QM CPU 2.2GHz (Quad core)
RAM: 12GB
Video Card: GeForce GT 640M LE

[TiLT]

I tried disabling texture compression (kept the HD videos), and that helped a lot. The game is playable now. Why texture compression won't work well on my monster machine is anyone's guess though. :P

[HexeR]

I have a quad core and even with texture compression off, it struggles to run this game...It has embarassingly bad optimization, even worse than Rome 2.

[varúlfur]

runs just perfect on my pc, no stuttering, all settings max. buy this game, it's beautiful

[frostie]

i run it on a notebook with HD4000 intergrated graphics chip and the game runs great very fast loading times so don't say things like do not buy, it seems like your PCs are not optimised

[Skoltd]

just to support the game ('cause I like it a lot), I haven't had any issuse whatsoever either.

[Christer]

Yeah, I liked this game very much. No performance problems on mye computer :)

[Girlbeard]

I'm playing on a crappy off-the-shelf laptop and haven't had any issues with the game so far.

GTX 780 ti user same issue.
