Man, Star Wars Jedi Survivor is still one of the worst PC ports of this year. GPU almost never gets utilized to its max except in the main menu. Still compiles shaders everytime you boot. Still no dynamic resolution that is found on the console versions. Frequent crashes.

While everybody's talking about Intel's 14th-gen CPUs, I just upgraded the RAM of my humble Zen 2 PC from DDR4-3200C16 to 3733C16 and the difference is huge! Almost like a Zen 2 to Zen 3 CPU upgrade! I knew I'd left performance on the table, but didn't realize how much until now.

I think I've nailed down #TheWitcher3NextGen console equivalent settings of PS5/Xbox Series X|S from every mode. Series S in perf mode uses a lot of hybrid settings. In fact, even the bigger consoles use hybrid settings to some degree and differ from each other in some ways.

Tip to improve performance in #TheWitcher3NextGen : there's LOD setting for Foliage, but CDPR hasn't exposed LOD setting for the meshes in the in-game settings menu. Fortunately it's tweakable in the ini files (both DX11 & DX12) in the Documents -> Witcher 3 folder. 1/2

To illustrate my point further, here's a x16 PCIe 3.0 vs 2.0 results (I don't have Gen 4.0 board to test, unfortunately): Gen 3.0 gains over Gen 2.0: Avg. = +32.5% 1% = +43% 0.2% = +42.5% This is massive! Note: I'm not talking about PCIe SSD here.

@Oikelome22 @NaughtyNDC According to Adobe... It's because of fine details. Blue screens have lower luminance therefore less chance of color spill around edges of actors. If the actor(s) & the chroma key background are close together, blue screen is used as it helps ensure the color spill is much less.

What happened to motion-matching animations? Ubisoft introduced it in 'For Honor' in 2016-17 and then seemingly abandoned it? I'm aware Naughty Dog also utilized MM in 'TLOU P2.' While playing Assassin's Creed Mirage, I've noticed that the anims during parkour feel rather stiff.
