Comment on Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?
John_Greene@lemy.nl 14 hours agoI fought tooth and nail to get Alan Wake 2 to run well on my PC but the game won in the end. Shame that the game basically requires you to run it above HD resolution with at least 60 fps or you will get crazy artifacting and sound bugs and shit.

I gave up on the idea of a smooth experience in the base game. I experience hiccups all the time even at the lowest settings. The DLC runs better so far, I even have low path tracing with mid denoiser quality at the moment and it runs ok. FSR 4.1 via OptiScaler looks good at 1600x1200 native.

I’m close to the minimum specs, just slightly above it. I can’t really get it to run acceptably, it quickly goes below 30 fps

With my specs I should be able to run it comfortably at high without ray tracing, even with some ray tracing features on at all times. The game’s optimization isn’t exactly the best unfortunately.
And yes, I can’t understand what they were thinking when they decided to make FSR/DLSS mandatory, I find it crazy.

I know a bunch of games these days use rendering techniques that will look completely broken without TAA or some kind of upscaling. I remember disabling the AA in the Oblivion remaster and it looked very strange
