Hugely disappointed in Stalker 2...
But after that article I'll give it another shot sooner than I was going to. I never thought that horrible performance could have been shaders loading in the background.
If that's what was going on, then they really need to make that more obvious, or lock people in a sort of training area until it's done and then start the actual game.
A couple weeks and it'll probably be a lot better.
But initial thoughts before the article, I think the mistake was watching huge budget games designed from the ground up to be a showcase for the engine, and assuming that would be what any third party studio could crank out.
UE5 has amazing potential, but it still needs good code run on good hardware to get Selene's result.
The game does not suffer shader compilation stutters. Rather, it's heavily CPU limited for whatever reason.
