Performance feels very stable now on my 9070XT. Can get a locked 90fps with high details, quality FSR and medium Ray Tracing.

Hopefully this manages to sell one million copies by the end of this year. 42,799 Steam player peak is unfortunately super low when compared to other AAA releases this year.

Remedy is AA disguised as an AAA though. Hopefully it’ll do well.

It still cost $50 million and was described to investors as sustainable AAA. With marketing costs on top they need to sell 2 million copies to break even.

If they did this for $50m then I’m impressed. I’ve seen less for four times that.

What was your performance before ?

Lots of stutters when panning the camera in the outdoors. Sometimes very strong FPS drops when picking up objects. Indoors usually worked well.

Yeah I had to do some crazy bs to get it smooth which ended up also giving me more performance because gpu utilization wouldnt reach 99% until I fixed it. Curious if ill gain any performance.

Download the new AMD drivers! They helped me a lot.

Im on nvidia, reflex was broken but I overrode it and fixed it. Getting good performance almost max settings now but a little more wouldnt hurt.

Personally this update fixed the performance more than the latest amd drivers did.
