Are these clowns trying to force us to play it like a derp console at 30 fps or what?

Don't think Ill play it much more. Playing on nemesis or w/e. Guns do nothing. Have to stealth kill and stab everything so far. I love stealth but this is just not fun at all.

I settled on doing just that. Because if i don,t lock at 30fps the framerate is all over the place. Microstuttering , going from 60 to 45 etc and it feel like shit. And that's even with medium settings.
So i said fuck it i decided to lock it at 30 fps with everything set at Ultra. It's 30fps but at least it's a stable 30 fps and i can crank everything to the max. I prefer that to higher but unstable FPS.
As for the game itself i am loving it so far. It is what TEW 1 should have been. More atmospheric and survival horror oriented than the first. Granted i'm not that far in but so far so good. Nice game

What is going on with this game 
And that's just when I have another ideas to try so maybe the game won't go into a crawl after 20 minutes |
try changing RTSS to a different rendering mode. Like Shadow of Mordor needed to be in vector 2D for it to work for me |

Yep I've made Gsync to work. Not RTSS osd for showing fps but nevermind. There is fps counter ingame... even though it was all working yesterday..
And It seems I've found what was causing the game going to a crawl after 20 minutes... logitech gaming software apparently. At least I've played for almost 2 hours straight without it and everything seems fine.
What's up with this?

What are these great mechanics you are talking about? All I see is a generic action game with a crafting system based on collectible resources.

I have 4 cores and HT and the games stutters like hell. But I guess that's normal for these 2013 graphics.

I don't have any stutter so far on my rx480 and 3570k. You guys on amd having problems messed with the chill thing? It made my mouse movement really wonky on this title and when I turned it off (f11) it was fine.
Only way I found this out was this weird beep sound when I started running games lately... Thought I had some weird malware but it's just chill being activated.

After six hours or so, I'm not sure what to make of the game yet, it feels very different from the first one but I'm enjoying the ride all things considered. It's a strange beast, a hybrid that alternates linear signature Evil Within-like moments and pseudo-open world scavenging resembling a zombie apocalypse, with more focus on stealth, exploration and crafting.
I've been spending most of my time exploring every corner of the town and looting like a mad Sebastian, a satisfying (not quite horror) pastime, though on the highest level of difficulty there's actually tension involved and one needs to avoid direct conflict since with the initial limited stamina the hordes of mutants can be lethal. Here's hoping the future chapters will be more story-centric while embracing the bizarre (imaginative) horror design of the first title, it's what made the franchise unique in the first place.
The idtech mambo#5 frankenstein monster is (unsurprisingly) misbehaving here too: the framerate itself is acceptable for my vintage rig (between 50 and 70fps on High, no blur/CA, 1080p, TAA) and there is no stuttering, though the frame pacing truly is poor, even 60fps don't feel as smooth as they should be no matter the tricks and fps-limiting used. Mouse controls are a bit sluggish and the graphics are only serviceable, not bad but definitely not impressive either, with so-so textures and a LOD that's clearly designed to be admired from the couch (once again, not a surprise). Will try to use some downsampling + Reshade sharpen/gamma magic and see if it can be improved

I finished this and I can't say I was impressed by anything. I already complained about the dated graphics riddled with "AAA" quality glitches so I'll move on to some other things. The story is weak, not necessarily predictable, but unimpressive. It's not really scary, creepy, twisted or emotional and ironic enough the narrative really tries to tick all these boxes. The gameplay is enjoyable, I won't lie, but mostly because it relies on the addictive elements like progression, exploration, secrets, etc. The combat is average in part due to the game's atrocious animation problems which become downright annoying when experienced during combat, but the control scheme doesn't help for sure.
Overall, The Evil Within 2 is a decent game, but nothing more. It tries to be too many things at once and doesn't really excel at any. It's pretty much a hybrid with an average quality in all the elements it tires to combine. I would definitely not recommend it for those who want a pure horror experience and for sure not at the 60$ price tag.

Is this the only dlc so far? The Evil Within 2: The Last Chance Pack?

I am having a good time with this. Way more than with first game.
I am on chapter 5 or 6. Graphics are good. What are some people talking about.
The performance is not too great. about 45-70fps but most of time about 50. Ultra, 1080p.
Anyway - The structure of the game is good. Not boring yet but I was kinda missing the old style single player, loot boxes free game.

I went to the wikipedia page of the game and ctrl-f'd "ruvik" to see how big his role is and I got not even a single result?!
Um, does this game completely ignore how the first one ended? Dafaq.
