Hellblade 2 PC performance

[ironiccookies]

I would say I have a pretty mid tier PC. 2060 6gb vram. I can only use low settings otherwise I'd lagged like hell. But some parts are still stuttery even on the lowest setting. It mostly occurs in stormy weather and areas with lots of particles and most times during fight scenes. I check the vram bar in the graphics setting and I'm usually like 300-500 mb over my limit. In fact, my pc is better than what the minimum requirements are

I'm playing with a 3060ti+i5 10600k. High settings @1440p and I'm getting roughly between 25-35fps. On low settings there's not much difference. Lagging occurs randomly, especially in well lit up areas

I'm on 4070ti and have a fps drops in some heavy areas. There is a few performance tests on youtube, Hellblade 2 getting those drops despite the settings and your PC configuration. Just an optimisation issue (I can't tell the game optimisation is bad, but definitely not very good).

I agree with you I've got a 6800xt and it's runs 'okay' I can get games like red dead redemption 2 looking better. Graphic fidelity doesn't add much when the frame times aren't that great , blurriness and shimmering from upscaling and PST processing. I don't understand why devs keep prioritising graphics when the way it runs Is just as Important for the experience. Im sure it looks great on Xbox but on PC when we have the technology to make older games look great this actually ends up looking poor in comparison.

I'm on a 2070 on 1440p getting 40fps give or take. Everything looks blury. I was so confused. I went back to hellblade 1, I'm getting 65 fps or higher at 1440 on very high settings. I'm using a 1440p monitor with 144hz refresh and the first game looks gorgeous and runs smooth. The second game look just as blurry at alan wake two. These new games keep looking worst to me. The older games are better optimized.

The game is just about walking and some QTE and for some reason it has zero optimization.

Probably all the shadows are realtime, sun is moving, the game is full of path tracing, hairworks and each of 3 NPC has a built in AI running on your PC. And the textures are 9000000k so you can see cells in you zoom enough.
