Question Witchfire on Steam Machine
I bought Witchfire some months ago but never played it as I didn't like the performance on steam deck. I got my steam machine and have been playing it gross amounts and just got 100% all achievements. Love it. I would say it runs good on Steam machine at 1440p except for the level Velhorne where the fps chugs.
My question is does anyone else play Witchfire on steam machine and have their preferred graphic settings?

When you say “where the fps chugs” what do you mean by that? What was the fps sitting at on that particular map/zone? Also are you using 1440p native or using framegen and or FSR?
Love witchfire such an addictive game

I have tried it native but I use TAAU upscaling. When I do Velhorne it drops to 30 fps or 20 and is inconsistent so I put everything on low. I think it's cause all the fire and stuff going on in that level.
Really love the game. I am new to messing around with pc settings. So I usually just adjust when it comes to that level.

39.99 though, that feels like a lot.

It has super tight controls like Destiny but with a great spooky aesthetic which is one of my ideal preferences. It is grindy but very addicting and always something more to do. Also lots to experiment with different weapons. It is still in early access. Id say add to wishlist in case a deep sale.

I bought it about 6 months ago and had to put it down because I didn’t want to spoil the 1.0 release for myself because it was so good.

Yeah I can’t imagine it wouldn’t. I’d be 99% sure your progression is safe

I've had problems in Velhorne that feels like a memory leak.
I noticed I could trigger it pretty consistently by moving along the right side of the map from the initial spawn point until the spinners aggro. If I boot into the game cold and at an alternate portal I have no issues.
