I'm playing with a Ryzen 5 and a 970 and it runs pretty smooth on low settings. I'm not a graphics whore though so I don't mind the visuals on low.
A Ryzen 5 is a pretty large span of processors, ranging from "old and mostly obsolete" to "modern and highly capable for gaming". Which one exactly would be helpful for others to help judge their own.
Looks like this is what I bought almost exactly 3 years ago:
AMD Ryzen 5 3600X 6-Core, 12-Thread Unlocked Desktop Processor with Wraith Spire CoolerGame does not really look good even at high settings. Releasing something with such bad performance and nothing to even show for is just insulting.
Not my experience at all, looks really nice, I did get rid of the overblown LUTs tho for a neutral one from nexusmods.
There are definitely some silly things like some of the random gen NPCs look... Disturbing sometimes.
Other then that though, very detailed environments, textures are very high quality and shadows/lighting is good
I'll take another look at it today after I fiddle with the settings a bit. What I saw yesterday was not impressive - occasional stuttering while barely utilizing my 2060 on low/med settings while looking worse than Skyrim did in 2011.
