Mr.Gusta95: since this game is drm free, does it play or load faster? only asking cause i remember the loading times being abyssmal
I'm playing it right now and sincerely the load times are really short (shorter than I remember in the steam version but maybe it's just an illusion). I'm a save-scumbag (I like to quick load all the time if any litlle thing doesn't go like I wanted and the load times are extremely short). Keep in mind that I have the game on a ssd and playing on dx11 (the dx12 version doesn't seem to work and it increased performance but also increased loading times). Hope that helps.
Just got the game here and i can say that it has significantly better loading times than what i remember through steam. Steam loading times were anywhere from 1-1.5 min on 7200rpm HDD, now it loads within 10-20 seconds. However, i don't know if that issue was fixed later with a patch on steam.
yes still buggy though. like dx12 WTF? and almost too many graphics options. lol but I got mine silky at 1080p ultra without MSAA and with ultra contact hard shadows and temporal anti-aliasing.
Like the previous posters said the loading times are significantly faster than was i had played before and i have no issue with FPS as well.

Only issue i have is trying to launch dx12 from gog galaxy, it runs fine from the folder itself tho.

I used to have crashes with dx12 a lot but after changing my system page file to manual with 4-6 gb range i had zero problems .

The difference for me between dx11 and dx12 is huge in terms of performance so if they can make it work via gog galaxy that would be great...

Really? For me it runs pretty much the same with both, except in Prague where with dx12 I lose almost 20 fps.

Yeap but unfortunately the game isnt very well optimized and it runs differently on different machines, also dx12 wasn't fully supported iirc.

It weird
