Dont choose borderless window

[Somulo]

just choose fullscreen or window choose your resolution settings and restart the game

also dont choose fsr 3 and dlss 3 just use fsr 1 (somehow better picture any resolution up to 4k)

main problem of this demo if you choose borderless windows the performance gonna be ♥♥♥♥♥♥ up really good

but if you choose window or full screen it will be ok - also you need to restart the game after changing some settings (obviously this "optimizers from pc port studio not gonna tell you that)

funny how clowns try to "figure out" why fps is so low and find a "culprit" but in the end it just borderless window option what basically destroy performance

also you can use lossless scaling software to double fps (yeah not gonna be a panacea here but at least its somethin), im not talking about upscale

again with fsr 1 - what doing somehow miracle for this game :D making it sharper if you set it up to 10

I played borderless window and maintained 80+ fps throughout the demo except for the locked 30fps fmvs. And my PC isn't even top of the line... I've got an AMD R5 3600 and a Nvidia RTX 3060.

there is a chance what borderless gonna be ok but there is a large chance as well what you got super low fps for no reason at all by changing resolution settings or fsr / dlss

anyway they not working if that happen, but again what i test right now with "new" nvidia driver again tells me what "new" optimized drivers not gonna do ♥♥♥♥ at least in this game

i dk about wukong, but wukong was ideal benchmark - also enabling frame gen for rtx 2 and 3 btw

dx12 is already borderless

yeah but the funny thing is they got borderless option full and window

and somehow by choosing some settings its just drop whole fps

stutters is 100% denuvo fault, since its new algorithm

nobody gonna notice it in octopath traveler but in heavy games, if you after first cutscene control clive for the first time and gonna move the camera then close the game and go back, it will stutter 100%

*just my luck btw steam maintenance in the middle of the week*

Better than that, just play in windowed mode, smaller than your desktop size, turn off all the in-game upscalers and then use Lossless Scaling instead.

At least until SE fix all these stupid bugs.

Need to try!
never ever looked fsr better than dlss or dlaa in any game before for me...
Currently I'm running dlaa but its terrible performance and still blurry on 1440p sadly

Don't forget to turn off Steam overlay too.
