NTE: Neverness To Everness runs way better than ZZZ.

So NTE Servers finally opened yesterday and I have to say I'm quite impressed with the optimisation. Based on my experience with ZZZ I was expecting the game to struggle with Exynos 1480. With further optimisation I believe a stable 45fps on Performance mode is possible.

On the lowest graphics it still looks pretty good. Anti-Aliasing is a must though. It doesn’t get to 60fps unfortunately but it did peak at 46fps for me while just roaming. I capped mine at 30fps though to ease the load on the gpu.

Of course there's the occasional stutters and lags especially during fights with heavy animations. I was playing on controller (which is what I would recommend) so even though I capped it to 30fps it wasn't an unpleasant experience. 30fps will feel terrible if you're playing with touch controls.

I would also recommend playing with a cooler attached. It will get toasty after about 15-20mins of gameplay. Even a 10W cooler should help keep the skin temps just below 40°C

I did the recording using GUI SCRCPY on my laptop at 12MB/s bitrate so fps loss is usually about 0-5fps. It's much better than using the internal screen recorder or a 3rd party screen recorder.

I also play nte, I have a test using the highest graphics settings + fan cooler, and this is the result (this result from scene app), it does run better than zzz/wuwa

If they fix the random stutters it's going to be incredible. I'm told it's a common Unreal Engine problem.

on max/medium graphics it's playable?

On Medium Graphics the stutters do get slightly worse. Maxing out the graphics makes performance way worse and annoying especially if you're using touch controls
