The sole idea of having to experiment to get the most optimised settings is such a burden to me 😅

Great game, tho.

All low FSR Perfomance. Locked it at 30fps too.

Easy 4 hours, also W for Vulkan native.

It is impossible to know which settings will be the best for your hardware and software combination.

So yes you need to try to see what works best for you.

Now in a fixed hardware and software platform like console the developer should delivery best optimized settings.
