EDIT: solution is as follows. 1. Use fullscreen, not borderless window (sometimes the game switches back to borderless window of its own accord, so check for this if problem recurs) 2. Set max pre-rendered frames to 1. 3. Consider using your mouse software to get fast polling rates.

Good evening comrades.

I am curious if any of you have identified tricks to make input super responsive. It appears that FPS in the 30 - 40 range have some mouse lag, despite looking smooth enough. I do have "hardware cursor" ticked.

I am not referring to Geralt's intrinsically cumbersome movement & sense of momentum (nor that of his horse).

At desired graphics settings, I get about 30 - 40 fps, which I would consider quite playable and luxurious, except that there is substantial mouse input lag when rotating the camera.

If I drop the graphics for >60fps, I get lightning-fast mouse response.

Generally it seems that it mouse lag depends upon framerate even when getting an FPS that should be very playable.

Incidentally, up to 200ms input lag is the norm in console gaming, and as such, I don't notice the lag if I am playing with my xbox controller rather than a mouse. If there is no simple fix, this may be an option for gamers wishing to play at ~30fps.
