Yes. It runs like dog water. And it seems people are just looking past it because of the nostalgia effect.

I had to tweak quite a bit but it's running at a stable 60 fps at 1440p now. I wouldn't say I'm looking past it, just enjoying it in spite of the performance issues.

My FPS drops from 60 to like 25, but that's rarely. It's not like it's a constant 25.

And this is why I don't buy day 1. Performance actually looks reasonable compared to other day 1 releases, but it's still not what I want to play. I bet most of these issues will be resolved in a month or two, and definitely resolved by the first sale, so I'll hold off. It's not like there's going to suddenly be content to miss out on, it's a remaster, so waiting is absolutely reasonable.

PC and console experiences have so far shown to be very, very different. Console players from what I can tell are having a more stable experience

Yeah I play on my PC and I'll cross play my save on my Xbox when I want to use the TV. The series X is quite a bit smoother. Sucks lol. Every UE5 game I've played on PC has not been a good experience lol. (I can play star citizen around 60fps in cities, KCD 2 on the highest srtting, for reference)

Avowed is UE5 and that ran well for me.

Yeah that’s a bummer. I’m curious how the new rig I’m building will do. 9080 + 9800x3d

[–] metaldream@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I run it on ultra at 1440p with RT on high and FSR performance upscaling. I get 60 fps consistently with these settings, no drops. I have a 9900X/7900 XT so I imagine you'll be able to get quite a bit more out of it.

Probably good. What's a 9080? Lol I have a 5800x3d. Love that chip

[–] LandedGentry@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

New AMD GPU. There’s a 9080 and 9080xt

i'm looking past it because my laptop is 7 years old and i'm happy it even runs lol

[–] SolidShake@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Right. But your laptop and my PC shouldn't be playing the game at the same performance ya know.

[–] shneancy@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

yeah i'm aware, i wasn't generalising it was just my personal experience
