Blurry mess
Just pointing some issues the game has imo:
*it should allow more than 60 fps.
*feels really blurry with FXAA or TAA on and really jagged with AA off, we need a sharpen slider on top of the TAA option. (i play on a 2k monitor with a 2080ti gpu)
*No idea why they went with powerpoints as ways to show us the story but that's set in stone.
*There should be an easier to acess "return to menu" instead of having to go to settings - others - return to menu.

EDIT: Graphical solution over here - https://steamcommunity.com/app/775500/discussions/0/3056237435834909348/

It allows more than 60 fps. If you set the frames to unrestricted the limit will be your monitor cap. At least i can run it at 2k 165 fps in fullscreen mode (if the game didn't crash...)

Ah ok, i'll set that one then.

i play 1440p on a 65 inch tv, all maxed out settings. Looks fine to me. Their might be an DPI issue with your monitor setting.

agree - i like core mechanics, but the quality of textures - is SOOOO low, its like someone put soap in my eyes. we need sharpening, bcs now it looks like something from ps3, imho :steamdeadpan:

For some reason the fps is only 90-110 in the city even though gpu and cpu usage is around 50%, seems like poor optimisation.

Taa and fxaa are known to blur the ♥♥♥♥ out of games.
In my opinion I would rather play without those. You can still try reshade msaa, if it still exists.

Yeah, it's so weird. I walk through the city area and fps drops down in certain areas depending on where the camera is facing. There are a few instances where GPU suddenly goes up to around 80% usage, but other than that, after standing in one place, both CPU and GPU usages are around 50% usage or lower while the game is running at lower than 100 FPS.

I have mine set to 1440p/maxed/120 fps, there are dips but not noticeable. I've not tried 144, but I find 120 looks less janky in most games, but could be my imagination.

Hopefully this is an easy patch, I've not played much of the game but it runs well appart from the city section when the frame rate seems to tank with lower usages

this would be fine if the game would support Geforce Experience. it kills me that i cant use the Sharpness and Color filters.

1. It does. Check settings. If you want a specific FPS value hard set it via graphics settings like the nvidia control panel. I have a 60hz TV so thats what i have it hard set to for everything lol.
2. It isn't too bad, but i am playing at 4k. Wish they just had Ray Tracing and DLSS 2.2, but owell.
3. It's an artistic decision. Though i get your point. This games type of presentation isn't for everyone.
4. Easy solution: ALT+F4. F the main menu lmao.

Man trust me, just set the Post Processing setting to low and you will notice a huge difference, this option just seems to add that ♥♥♥♥♥♥ chromatic aberration that makes everything so blurry and makes me even dizzy after 30 minutes playing, give it a try :)

it's not power points, it's motion comics and is a legitimate way of telling a story.

There was a thread I saw before where people were changing their settings in the ini files of the game to make it less blury. You can find it here.
