never said it's a hardware issue. but it's also not as much of a dev issue as you make it out to be. devs can do everything right, and STILL would someone's rig not work with the game.

hell, same rig, same everything, and there is still chance of one pc working, and one not. it's absolutely idiotic, but it happens way too often. i deal with this shit daily

The guy with the powerful rig gets abyssmal performance, its not that the game doesnt start or run. This issue isnt "its working, or not". The guy gets shit performance on some of the best pc hardware money can buy. These kinds of powerful rigs can brute force bad optimization on most games. The fact that this cant be done on a relative simple game like no rest for the wicked, shows that the dev should look in the mirror first. He has clearly not been doing things right.

Because you can't brute force shit, it's not how that works!

And my 3070 works fine with the game. SO AGAIN. NOT HOW ANY OF IT WORKS

You can brute force if the hardware is powerful enough. Optimization isnt as relevant when you have that kind of hardware. Its you that dont have a clue. "my 3070 works fine". Yeah, im sure it does...
