It seems the performance isn't fully optimized yet. While shaders are still being compiled, it manages around 41-50 frames per second during the intro scene inside the car. As you move through the house, it reaches about 60 fps. The variation might be due to shader quality or scaling adjustments (game rendered at 1280x800 while viewed at 1920x1200). There are some interesting visual effects like hair details and skin gradients, but overall it looks playable.
I must review the memory consumption, I didn’t just check VRAM. It looked like it was using 10GB during high settings at 4K on a 4090, which is quite surprising since it shouldn’t be decreasing when you lower the settings.
That may be related to a buggy Oodle decompression library, there's a thread on the steam forums which links to a different version of the DLL which seems to not leak so much memory Mine crashed every couple minutes, after renaming the original file and copying the dll into the folder it didn't crash for around 10 minutes so it's an improvement. It's possible they changed this dll file with the latest patch, I didn't apply the patch yet See the steam community page here : https://steamcommunity.com/app/1888930/d...645/?ctp=3
I've experienced over 27 GB of memory consumption at 4K resolution, which is quite extreme. This is really surprising, but it shows how much work we need to do to improve the game. The community must address this issue with the developers.
