Yea it’s kinda ass.

A 3070FE with no CPU bottleneck should not chug this game at 40fps on low settings with “ultra performance” DLSS at 3440x1440. Do better, devs.

Besides that, your complaints are 100% on point. As someone who had 2700 hours in FF14 before quitting, it’s clear they overlocked the engine to its limits and simply patched together whatever they could.

I called it as soon as they gave the FF16 project to Yoshi-P. He did the best he could with the tools he was given, and the only tool he knows is FF14.

We expect this man to produce a stellar mainline FF game while actively being the producer of the best MMO on the market while trying to finish multiple industry-leading expansions?

Square Enix is yet another example of corporate suicide by deliberate mismanagement.
