Switch performance problems

[Knifight]

Having some issues with some weird lag and frame skipping the further I get in the game. Generally running at a consistent frame rate but with drastic sudden drops where the game will hang for half a second or so.

The weirdest parts are the effects on the game when these things happen. Things don't always hang uniformly, sometimes certain enemies and elements won't freeze, enemies will do a projectile animation and nothing comes out, hitboxes can very wonky. I've had full bits where the game seems to 'rewind' because it doesn't seem to agree on what happened. For instance I'll fall a full screen and then be teleported back up after it seems to decide that actually I grabbed a ledge.

One other thing I'd mention is maybe changing the description on some items that, at least for me, made me think they were reducing the effects of toxic mist until I got the Relic that actually does that. Combined with the fact that the mist actually acts as a hit and knocks you off walls etc., it can make some of the puzzles revolving around it pretty frustrating, particularly the one in the Grievance Ascends area where you actually can make it up to the item, but the communication of when you can and can't stab the wall and the timing of it are very difficult to get a grip on.

Absolutely love the game overall. It's really fantastic. I know something like this just probably isn't in the cards post launch, but I would have loved to have seen a lot more of that beautiful cutscene art that you see so much of at the start. Everything about the way the game looks is amazing, and barring some of the weirdness I was mentioning with lag and hitboxes and stuff, the gameplay feels really solid as well.
