needs to start on mid graphics settings

[tinysalutations]

To be fair I used some fairly old hardware, but I couldn't even get the game to load and it kept crashing in order for me to get to the settings to change these. I wasn't expecting the demo to be stressing my computer so much. I mean this computer ran Senua's Saga Hellblade 2. It wasn't pretty, so I ended up playing it on another computer, but it was at least possible. So I didn't think I needed to go out of my way to try out this demo. Anyway, everything in this demo is automatically set to ultra everything and no FPS limit and VSync was disabled. I think it should be set lower to start, maybe medium, and people can turn it up.

As far as the game itself, I felt like the world building had potential. I would be interested to see where they take they lore. I think the fighting was a little unnecessarily complex, but I got used to it fairly quickly. I really dislike when you have to walk with one joystick and aim the camera with another, because I'm running out of hands to fight with here. So keeping the camera centered would be good.

Its ok bro. I get 50 FPS on medium settings. I am on a 4070 T_T

Sure I got 60 FPS (the limit I set) on medium once I played. The problem was that the game doesn’t start on medium. It starts on ultra, which kept crashing so hard that it was hard to even change the settings.

Strix 4090 and 14900KS direct die all custom cooled crashes whenever I try to start a new game.

EDIT: I got it to launch had to down clock GPU to default even though my OC is stable. Game has memory leak issues.

It's a known issue with recent high-end Intel CPUs: https://www.radgametools.com/oodleintel.htm

TL;DR: No, your OC is in fact not stable.
