    Well, had to give it another try. Before, my 3070 could barely even handle the game at decent settings and higher framerates, now my 4080 Super shouldn’t be an issue at all.

    After some testing I had hoped it’d be in a better state now, only shortly tried to load my save from a long time ago but it doesn’t look very promising, was at least hoping 100+ FPS at this point, but I face one side I get 70 FPS, and I turn to a misty valley and it burns down to like 20. Also initially had issues to even get the game running again, it would just freeze when the game window was active, I could hear my buttons having effect, but nothing would show until I took the focus off the game.

    After rebooting it a couple of times and fiddling with some settings it seems to now work (still strangely the same settings as I started with), and sometimes it performs well and sometimes it struggles. Very inconsistent. If I turn off my MSI Afterburner undervolt config it feels like the game will melt my rig, the fans go absolutely crazy.

    Also there seems to be quite some pop-in textures, terrain, trees and foliage. I don’t really recall this from before, at least not this noticable.

    Hope it’s a driver thing or perhaps still more optimisation, because the game seems fun. Combat is still super basic and easy though, but being able to build a lively village makes up for it for me.
