Performance

[Nisijou]

idk why i am running into some major performance drops in the overworld i am at like 75 in the beginning but as soon as i am in the open world the game drops fps horribly anyone has the same issue? i have a 6500xt and a ryezn 5 4500

try going back to the title screen and then loading back into the game. it gets stuck like that for me if i just restart the game but reloading my save seems to fix it for however long.

[Nisijou]

yeah that did not help me i am getting like 15 fps on the open world even tho i should be getting more based on the minimum requirements

Most of the graphical settings seems to only fully apply when you restart the game. That said, I'd recommend you to try setting it to the lower settings, restart the game and see if anything changes in performance, then if it does, you just can figure the rest by experimenting and seeing what works.

Anyway yes, performance is bad and there is also some bug that makes it have some huge drops in specific areas after some time playing, forcing you to reload the game...

yeah it is so bad and ngl i was excited for the game idk if i can run it or hope for a mod that fixes the performance. but yeah idk if waiting for the community to fix it is a good idea. plus it is the first atelier game i was interested and idk if for a game that runs how it runs is a good idea to spend that much

I highly recommend tinkering with the settings.. had to disable bloom, motion blur and light shafts for the game (demo) to look good on 1980x1080.. also, maybe it's just my system, but for some reason 30fps ran way worse than 60fps which made me lol..

I have a powerful pc but my monitor is only 1980x1080.. maybe it looks better with those options enabled on higher resolutions but in my case bloom felt very blurry and 'light shafts on' felt like I was shot by lasers :D

Game is great though, spending few minutes on the settings screen is arguably a small price to pay and hopefully devs will optimize things further.

Indeed, as much as I am excited for this game, $350 BRL is not a price that I can pay without feeling guilty, especially on a game at such state.
Hell, I am finishing Metaphor ReFantazio right now and that one already gave me enough technical headache

how did you disable the motion blur and other stuff?

For me the game had a different behavior, it would have drops to 20ish fps if I had it locked at 60, but as soon as I set the in game frame limiter to 30 it would stabilize at that. Also it seems like the game gets unstable somehow if you set the in game frame limiter to unlimited, so if you are using an external software for frame limit I'd recommend setting the limit in game too

you can access the settings only while in the game (bit weird that in the demo you can't access them on the intro screen). Not sure what button it is though on the keyboard (I use xbox controller) but I'm guessing just pressing the Ecs should do it.. than just select the gear icon .. It's the same screen that has the basket and party setup etc..

edit: just restarted the game.. and there actually is an option menu on the intro screen.. weird that you could not do it before first starting the game.. and yes Esc works too, just tried it with the keyboard.

You run out of vram dude.

Never seen a game stuttering so much...if release is like this, its a instant refund. ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thats unplayble!

I basically had to set the FPS limit to 30 and just turned on Lossless Scaling's frame generation.

[zarcondeegrissom]

I just ran into this with the demo, pressing 'a' on the keyboard changes the press 'A' to close on the first screen about auto-saves to a mouse looking thing and clicking with the mouse does nothing. 'esc' space WASD etc appear to do nothing after it switches from the controller 'A' icon to the mouse icon thing. I guess this is a game you can not play without a console controller, oh well.

Hi lovely people on AMD, I've spent the past week figuring out why it stutters like CRAZY on windows11, but runs smooth on linux ^_^

you will find the Answer in your Amd adrenalin application, I strongly recommend disabling "Anti-lagg" for the game, this game have a few quirks

It's very heavy on Vram ( the game does have a nice little ingame visual indicator for used vram, you might want to lower settings or resolution if that is a problem )

otherwise, is the game actually also heavy on the CPU and if you're CPU bound anti lagg, hurts you more than it benefits, as your CPU is already struggling to keep up is anti lag further asking it to delay so the GPU can catch up and sync, this causes stutters as you will then on skip out on entire frame cycles.

so do make sure any AMD users have anti lagg disabled

for reference I'm running
RX 7900xtx + AMD Ryzen 5950x
PCI Gen 4 - NVME.

I still cannot achieve the same performance I have on Linux on windows 11, even with a clean install, but I got something close enough and stable, I'm capable of having the game locked at 80fps ( with AMD chill )
and pushing most things to high.
(mind you I am playing the game in Ultrawide settings, 5120x1440 )

I hope this helps anyone with severe stutters on AMD, Anti lagg is NOT your friend in this scenario quite the opposite it's a villain.

mind you this doesn't mean the game still won't dip from time to time, but full on stutters should be gone.
I experienced the stutters on all resolutions even at 1080p 60fps.
so it wasn't just due to pushing too high.

Hope this helps
