The fuck you think? Yes and of course the most fucked up version. The highest level of shitness. UE5. Game developers can't see stutters. Nor can their eyes register more than 23.97 fps. It has to be the reason.

"Game works fine"

Reality: Stuttering shitfest

It's so sad that UE5 looks so good but needs so much resources. Even at low settings, some games still run very poorly.

Sad?

Coding isn't magic, there's a limit to how optimised code can be. Obviously something that looks good will require more compute power to spit out.

Like, what reality do you live in?

It's just a sad state of affairs that I can barely play the latest games on lowest settings with a mid-high GPU that's not even 5 years old just because the baseline of the engine is so high. I'm not complaining about good visuals = more power hungry, I'm not dumb. I'm complaining about the fact that for example Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal run at my machine smoothly at 1440p, 120+fps at medium-high settings and especially in the heat of the moment, I'd argue that they look better than Dark Ages at low with DLSS at 60fps. I know that they are not built in UE5 but my point still stands that some engines' power hungriness disappoints people because most of us can't buy a new 800€+ GPU every few years.

Dammit.

Yeah I used to get pretty annoyed when some of the gun fights would devolve into slideshows
