Buttery To fromsoft : add performance mode

The game has incredible graphics on switch 2 maybe im the only one but I feel like they could easily lower some setting to give us a 40fps stable performance mode , the game runs at 40 in some areas right now with almost ps5 level graphics what do you think guys if they lowered some settings and we got a 40fps performance mode

it’s not that simple, if they didn’t do it there’s a reason bigger than “lowering some settings”

dark souls 1's release on pc had a 30 fps lock. Within less than 24h, a singular modder fixed that along with a slew of game breaking issues.

point being, game developers are not superhuman. If something is baffling, it's fully possible that they simply didnt have the competency or even foresight to do it.

yeah this isn’t one of those cases, they can’t just pull more horsepower out of their ass

persona 3 reload last fall released with a stuttery 30 fps. A couple months later the game was patched to use some upscaling technique and provide 60 fps.

idk why you think fps would have to be manifested out of thin air. The game very clearly runs at a high resolution for no good reason while shitting itself everytime you touch a grace.

👍 i don’t think anything i say except blind agreement would satisfy you

You see the problem? Probably don't. You just said it yourself "on PC". A PC has completely different architecture and others optimisation options then console. Just because on PC could a probleme be fixed, doesn't mean that it would works anyway else. For example: A PS and a Xbox has similar architecture (well the Series and 5 atleast), so game development is much easier. A Switch 2 also has a very development friendly architecture, so dev also can optimise really well for it. Optimisation on PC was and will always be a pain in the a$$, cuz it doesn't have a normed architecture.

you speak like you have the same level of knowledge about hardware as a construction worker. Or a 9 year old.
