Alan Wake 2 [XBSX|S, PC, PS5]

I played this about an hour with the new patch. Maybe not the most demanding scenes, although I did have some forest scenes in the Night Springs 3rd episode. My initial impression was that it did ran better on my 4070 Super. I'm running 4k with DLLS performance and frame gen on. Every setting max including the new ultra settings. I'm sorry but it runs well haha. I'll have to check some of the choke points with Saga's campaign later though to see how those fare. Really happy with my GPU. I don't think 5070 is going to even beat this and it's going to be more expensive as well. Looks like I can run with this easily until the 6000-series. I'm playing with controller and I'm not very sensitive to frame drops and little hitches atleast not in a slow paced game like this with a game pad. If I played a fast paced FPS with a mouse, I would run a little lower settings (probably 😅)

I've been enjoying the game quite a bit, although it's quite dark despite some light hearted stuff thrown in. Next game will need to be more "fun" I have about 33h on this already and I expect there to be at least couple more hours in the campaign and I haven't played the Lake House DLC yet either.

I finished the game and the DLCs last night. 45h in total :) did most of the extras, but not all. I guess it's bit of a wait for the next one... Control 2 not coming too soon either.

Ultra settings in the forest definitely were a bit too much for my 4070S after all, looked stunning though :) Personally if the base framerate stays above 30fps I think framegen works well enough for me in a game like this, but once it drops to 25ish things definitely start to change... Honestly I should have dropped the settings, but I didn't haha.
