I'm watching a streamer play the game, and what I see looks like I'd have some fun, and others probably feel the same way.

I'm just not interested in playing at like 30fps on a 3080. Maybe some patches or driver updates can improve things and I'll check it out in the Steam Winter Sale or something.

I heard this is because NVIDIA didn’t fund optimizations. AMD did so it’s running a lot better for them. I said fuck it and bought an Xbox with 2 year payment plan and game pass included. Cause no way my 1080ti is ever gonna play this game that good I don’t think. End of an era.

It's all over the place. Some AMD GPUs are far better than the equivalent Nvidia GPUs, but then AMD CPUs are seemingly much worse than Intel.

Then there's reports of Nvidia cards sometimes being stuck at like 60% power, which of course doesn't help either.

Damn what a mess. I was hearing for Linux the mesa driver makes the game run pretty well for AMD cards.
