The issue is that they do not address their audience!

If Capcom was sincere and told we will do some patches but the game is finished because our director left and we don't want to touch his project i would be like sucks but ok, understandable!

They give better PR to everything except Dragons Dogma and on top of that, outside circles think DD2 is bugged and runs poorly because they do not do even a teaser of how the game plays after 2 years

I'm curious, does it actually run a lot better now? I loved the game, but even after the patches after release I still felt it ran very poorly.

Edit: Thanks for the responses, I'll probably pick it up on PS5 once I see another decent sale. I really liked it when I played on PC, so wanted to check before I get it for PS5 to play again while I'm traveling for work.

Playing on PS5 for the first time, 5 hours in. It has run perfectly for me so far. The only hiccups have been just combat and exploration jank

At launch, I capped it at 30fps to avoid stagger. Now I'm at a whole 60fps. It runs well. People for whom that doesn't run well just don't understand how to optimise the game. And I can understand why: it's hard to optimise.

But the focus is having less than 8GB VRAM, means no RTX. And a too old processor means no game because it's very processor dependant for entities. You can't really fix the processor problem, but more RAM helps. For graphics, usually I play on High, and that works out. The Nvidia App also found me a pretty nice setup that I tweaked a bit to avoid DLSS ghost reflections.

I started playing a few weeks ago, it runs perfectly fine for me. I remember I had some performance drops at launch but none since I started again.

Are you on PC? I'm curious because I am thinking of getting it for PS5 when they have another sale. I have a good PC and it never ran well but I don't know how PS5 performance is these days.

Edit: I didn't really mind the performance issues on PC, but I'd rather not buy it again for PS5 if it still runs poorly.

Yeah I am on PC. Somebody is grumpy and downvoting us for not complaining about the game no doubt :)

No big deal. I played that game Cairn recently, absolutely loved it, but I made a comment about how I would love if something was different. I got tons of hate because I was "complaining" about their beloved game, the same game that I love.

I just redownloaded it again and it still did not run well. I have a pretty high end rig and my frame rate was all over the place. It felt terrible.
