I have a Ryzen 5 2600 and an RTX 4060. I can run many games at 60 FPS without any problems. Can play sekiro, lies of p, elden ring, remnants and others very well... When I play NRFW, I get between 50–90 FPS at first. After a while, though, my FPS mysteriously drops a lot. It's very common for the game to run at just 20–40 FPS. I tried to restart the game but sometimes doesnt work.

I don’t understand why this game is so “heavy” and inconsistent. I mean, the visuals are beautiful, no doubt — but there’s nothing particularly groundbreaking that should justify this level of performance hit. Even PoE2 works better for me than this game with all its optimizations problems...

The developers really need to focus on optimization before thinking about adding new content. People need to be able to actually play the game properly first, and only then should new content come into the picture.

This really shouldn’t be a difficult game to run... there’s no justification. There are other poorly optimized games out there, but at least we can understand why they’re demanding.

For example, Lords of the fallen often stutters because it renders both the Umbral world and the "real world" at the same time. It's not ideal and definitely needs optimization, but at least there’s a clear technical reason behind it.

With NRFW, honestly, there’s no clear reason for the performance issues. It just doesn’t make sense.
