    I’m about to okay for the first time. Compiling shaders zzz… Edit: it’s a lot of fun, good combination of environment, action and story (so far) I’m getting about 110 fps with a 3070ti on high settings at 1440p

      Just to add a little insight to this; compiling shaders on your own machine is an absolute win in bandwidth and storage space.

            That, and there are still many parts of the US that are underserved in internet access. I have a friend who lives ~15 minutes outside of a major city and, until recently, the whole family shared a flaky ~2Mbps connection. They begrudgingly adopted Starlink because that was the only decent option.

      Hm. I got a 4070 super and getting 55-60. But I’m also running it straight out the box on Linux, so there will hopefully be a slew of performance gains to be had then. Glad it’s not the game itself running poorly! It does feel a bit more streamlined (kinda like the morrowind -> oblivion transition), but I’m still really enjoying the game so far 4 hours in.

        Hey fellow Linux gamer, does the game compile your shaders from scratch every time it starts, or it’s just me? Started it 3 times so far, 45 minute compilation each time… Absolute PITA.

        Edit: forgot to mention I have the GOG version, you may play in Steam with its fancy shader cache updates…?

          I am on steam yes. Good shout about getting it on gog though. I do get a fair chunk of shader pre compilation. But not 45 minutes, maybe like 5? And then there is some once the game has launched in a loading screen as well.
