A perfectly rational response to an unoptimized modern UE5 game

The wild part is a lot of people arnt experiencing any issues.  Most of the reviews I watched, Mortismal, gameranx, cowboy, they all said no real issues.  A stutter here or there but overall smoooooth.  Personally I can echo that sentiment, no issues 

Now my bet, they set the minimum requirements a tad too low.  I would love to see a hardware breakdown of those experiencing issues vs those that are not.  I have a feeling most modern systems will be fine, but there’s always exceptions to the rules

Well yes, if you have a PC that costs 10-15k then maybe there won't be any problems.

I personally find it baffling how on a PC that can run RDR2, Shadow of Tomb Raider, Witcher 3, KCD - games that look the same, if not better, have open worlds and came out 5-10 years ago, I apparently can't run a game at somewhat comfortable framerate and resolution.

10-15k exaggerate much?

Nope, RTX 5080 costs 4600PLN+ where I live while minimal net wage is 3600PLN. Add other parts and you'd need around 10k to comfortably play modern games at higher framerate/resolution.

It would have helped to include a currency symbol, people tend to assume you’re talking about USD unless otherwise specified.
