Which improve mod should I download? Heard that this game was poorly optimized.

Or this game is already fixed?

already fixed. just don't use the MSAA setting (change to smaa or fxaa) and you should be fine. they updated the steam version shortly after they launched on microsoft store

I think I was using SpecialK to get QoL, but I don't remember what I did or where I got it.

None, the game is good. Just dont exagerate on smaa (and theres is a fix on nvidia panel so the black ♥♥♥♥ is gone) or just use fxaa. Game runs pretty well now. I played on GP and cannot see the diference.

https://www.nexusmods.com/nierautomata/mods/29 read this. at the very least i'd recommend installing the HD texture pack using FAR.

I played through the entire game last month with no mods. No performance problems on i5-8400 and RX 6600. No crashes or noticeable bugs.

I only suggest Special K (FAR) if you have a weaker GPU that can't handle the in-game Global Illumination on Low. Special K can lower it further.

Some vanilla textures of unimportant objects like crates are very low res but just pretend it's a problem with your android eyes :P

Not fixed, no. It runs worse than it did before the patch, and they also lowered the quality of SSAO and atmospheric bloom.

FAR used to be able to fix those things, but you're stuck with the reduced quality versions now that the Steam version of the game is the same as Microsoft store.

Really the only thing FAR's good for now is turning off the game's fake HDR, allowing you to select even lower settings than the game offers if you're struggling to run the game, and I guess texture mods.

It also lets you play the game at 120 FPS, but judging by the tone of this thread, I don't think anyone here cares about that :)

its fixed so the performance doesnt get worse as you play and the 60fps actually feels like that not a stuttery 20
