Wife and I are loving it but it needs some tunning for sure. Performance struggles and crashes are pretty common, and my wife clipped through a door just after the tutorial section. Didn’t do anything crazy, just walked right on through a locked door.
Agreed on the tuning needed, but I’m surprised to hear how many have had crashes. I haven’t had a single crash in like 50 hours of playing and another 50hours with it idling while I take breaks.
I haven’t had any crashes, but I’ve had loads of other issues. Laezel constantly breaks requiring a reload, scripts sometimes don’t fire correctly so you don’t get an important buff or item necessary to progress, my characters constantly end up naked after going to camp because it wants to hide their armor automatically and doesn’t unhide it when you leave, my proficiencies are often not applied to rolls, etc.
Vulkan crashed on me on launch day. And I haven’t had a crash since then with 30 hours of play now. I would play more but I work long hours during the week.
I3 12100f, gtx 1060 3gb, and ssd on Linux. We since switched to steam deck where we have only had 1 crash. I should be hitting a bit over the minimum specs but my bet is I was running out of vram in cutscenes where the detail is higher.
4GB of VRAM is in the minimum requirements, seeing as you have a 12th gen Intel you really might want to look at getting a GPU upgrade. You can find used 6600/XT’s or 6700’s for pretty cheap and that would roughly double (or more) your performance in pretty much every game.
That is a good catch, I clearly glossed over that. I recently gave most of my rig a facelift as I was bottlenecked by my old CPU. A GPU is 100% next in line but thankfully we’re still enjoying the game on our Decks.
you can directly target allies with health potions to pick them up btw. It might need a surface under it to apply the healing though, I’ve never tested it on someone floating lol. healing spells will always work though, especially

which doesn’t require you to target them directly.

I agree it’s odd. For some it’s constant and others it’s unheard of. Hopefully they’re able to track it down. 3 patches since release is a good sign.
My cousin is having crashing but we realized she had her video settings too high for her pc to handle

Damn that sucks. I’ve had a few minor scripting issues and Shadowheart got legit stuck once, but other than that smooth sailing

Crazy, haven’t experienced anything like that. Do you meet the minimum specs, and are you running it on an HDD or an SSD?

linux There’s your answer,
Nah the game runs fine on SteamDeck, which is Linux. It’s the 3gb of vram.
I walked through a cracked stone wall when I tried to attack it.
don’t die on the top of a ladder, you might by lying in the air next to it and no one will be able to rez

I mean a full death that requires a ‘touch’ distance to use a resurrection scroll, not just a ‘mostly dead’ character. ;)
