During stress moments with several monsters and spells yes. Otherwise it seems to hover around 30-40.

Well yeah, that's my point, I saw the performance reviews like everyone else but J jorgejjvr came to 20fps conclusion.

I agree. It's not good, but some people exaggerate a bit too much.

 

[phant0m]

Yeah, i remember. More fps can't hurt, though.

Oh I don’t disagree. But half this forum looks at anything sub-60 fps like it violated their civil rights and fucked their mother.

 

[Ivory Samoan]

How a game running at 20fps gets 8-10 score reviews is beyond me

I haven't heard of 20fps, maybe in the 20s in the human city, but not outside of it.

Let's ask this game.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time Reviews

As a young boy, Link is tricked by Ganondorf, the King of the Gerudo Thieves. The evil human uses Link to gain access to the Sacred Realm, where he places his tainted hands on Triforce and transforms the beautiful Hyrulean landscape into a barren wasteland. Link is determined to fix the problems...

Not sure what date of births have to do with anything. My point was that frame rate is not directly proportional to a games reception, nothing controversial said there.

If you want a more recent example, Breath of the Wild also has frequent drops and it didn't effect the games reception one bit.

Wasn't it cheaper on cdkeys?

Edit: Shit, I was thinking in euros, nevermind.

Ah....right. Yeah, Fanatical is the best price for official reseller keys. I will buy from CD Keys, but not sure about all the other third party key reseller shops.

i was 21 when it came out. and in no way is that depressing.

 

[Feel Like I'm On 42]

Perhaps there’s…more to gaming than framerate?

<oldmanyellsatcloud>

Back in my day we played split-screen Goldeneye at 15fps and we LOVED that shit.

That was 28 years ago dude ....do you still want to watch movies on vhs while listening to music on your discman? Didn't think so.

 

[Topher]

Damn......there is no preload for this game? Everyone is going to be downloading at the exact same time?

 

[SJRB]

Holy shit

 

[Topher]

Holy shit

That's pretty damn cool

 

[SJRB]

I'm watching Lirik play this and there is an almost neverending stream of combat. Is it like this all the time? He's in the open world an no matter where he goes he literally walks from combat encounter into combat encounter, there's pretty much zero respite in between encounters.

Yeah asked myself that too! But the Image quality is not looking good and he has huge loading times. I can imagine that he has a Monster PC but still doesnt run smoothly

It was the same way in the first game.

“Look master! Goblins!”

“Wolves ahead!”

“That’s a mighty foe over there. We must be cautious.”

Discman sounds pretty dope rn not gonna lie.

Don’t you guys have a huge boner for physical media anyway?

Its adjusting your mind for the slow down in frames once in.

It's been many years since I played the first but I legit don't remember it being this brutal in terms of encounter frequency, especially during the day.

Mobs spawn literally every 50 feet so far from what I've seen.

 

[Rob_27]

It would be better at 60 or 30. Plus lots of ghosting

 

[Kings Field]

God damn this game is fucking amazing.

Yeah it's pretty bad at times. But there's hope they'll patch it so that it's possible to keep a certain level of suspension of disbelief engaged.

To be honest I find a far bigger issue to be the weight/inventory management if you happen to be using a light class like ranger early on.
It gets extremely tedious and annoying given the menu's aren't particularly well designed.

Got to be honest, I'm finding it a bit of chore to play. Its not difficult, it just feels like there's way too much busywork and everything is so clunky it feels like the game is constantly getting in its own way.

Bear in mind I'm someone who never had an issue with Nioh and the other TN games endless loot spam.

56% positive in Steam, and rising.

 

[Zimmy68]

The price has been falling on the grey sites but I haven't heard a word about this game in a month.
Was it updated to fix the launch issues (start a new save, change character?)

Zero updates to fix performance on any platform. They've added New Game option and you can create new character.

But it still overwrites the other character and game, right? Only one active at a time?

Yes, but there's an easy fix - https://www.nexusmods.com/dragonsdogma2/mods/52
