Wish they delayed it for more polish and optimization but it's what it is. This game has gotten so many wanting to upgrade their hardware lol, amd or nvidia should sponsor them.

[Furesis]

yes, almost like they're in it or something...

Guess I'll state the obvious, the game shouldn't be getting 8+ or 4/5 when the overall performance is pathetic.
"Engine isn't designed for this type of game" Well, stop using the damn thing.

Won't even bite at the fact you have to pay money to customize your character.

Yeah the micro-transactions seem very predatory. Helped me decide not to bother with this game at least until I see it on sale in a year or two. I'm done supporting that kind of thing.

The game is one of the worst optimised games I've ever come across.

The worst part is the game isn't even pretty or pushing anything fancy.

Literally looks like a ps3/ps4, there absolutely no excuse for it to run this poorly and look so bad at the same time

Runs fine on ps5. There was some very rare fps drop but other than that it was good.
Pc and Xbox I can’t tell you

In frame rate mode, it looks like garbage, almost like a Switch game. Balanced mode only works if you have a 120Hz-capable TV but suffers from frequent frame drops. Resolution mode runs more consistently, but it is capped at a miserable 30 FPS, which is far from ideal.

So, I definitely wouldn’t say it runs fine, especially when it looks like that.

90 Metacritic “Must Play” status would argue otherwise, these are “professionals” people!

PC performance sounds all over the place, patches and mods should help, have fun with that
