The PC port is a hot mess

[Zealot]

What took them so long to port this thing to PC? It's literally horrible, crashed 3 times already. Textures won't load properly. LODs are completely messed up. Combat sometimes won't start even if you are standing in front of guys. No widescreen support. No mouse cursor in the main menu (wtf?) Cutscenes frequently just softlock the game. Skipping cutscenes also softlocks and crashes the game.
TL:DR one of the worst ports on PC I've seen, even by Squares Standards.

Edit: I tried it on Steam Deck as well and am having the same issues with broken LOD-levels, low-resolution textures and softlocking (Why is it verified? I don't know). This is not a VRAM issue as some people have suggested, the game just cannot load the resources it needs fast enough because it is poorly optimized for PCs.

I also tried the newest AMD Drivers from 2 days ago, the issue persists on PC.

Specs for anyone interested:
Intel i5-13600K
AMD RX 7900XTX
64GB RAM
No, it's not my PC. I own 1300 games on Steam, they all run fine.

Probably not enough VRAM. I have enough VRAM with a Titan XP 12GB and the card would probably run it well, but no DX12 ultimate support..

I was looking forward to FF7 Rebirth, but gunna have to call it FF7 Refund now. :(

yeah the lod of shadows are really bad, they load one meter from the character

Sounds like your PC.

Havent crashed once yet all my textures are loading fine but I did encounter a bug when you get to the part on the mountain where the bridge is out when you run back to Tifa she is supposed to take you to the alternate route but Tifa just froze and didnt move from her spot to take you to the alternate route causing the game to softlock which required me to restart the game thankfully I had just saved prior

I have been playing for an hour and not had any of those issues. What card are you running?

[lailaamell]

runs fine on my 3060ti 8gb vram and 16gb ddr4 and ryzen 5700g cpu

their computers and their settings. it’s pretty obvious

Im on a 2070 super, supposedly good for average settings, currently even at low everything and 30 fps its a constant stutter mess.

I'm on a 10700K and a 3080 (10GB) so not a supercomputer by any means and I haven't had a single issue so far. Disappointed with the lack of native widescreen support though.

I guess 24GB of VRAM isn't enough...

you probly should check if something is wrong for your rig shouldnt struggle if my 3060ti can run it

if you guys have the nvidia app installed from a month or two ago, uninstall it. it tanks performance by like 15-20% iirc
