Specs aside (because looking over the listed specs I am pretty sure my PC is better and it’s not even a “high end” pc :rofl:), I have no doubt at all that it was a job of bad porting. Which was my entire point.

Did you not read this part right here? :point_up_2: Not to mention that when they did port the game over, the PS5 didn’t even exist yet, it was ported over to the PS4 (which runs the game even worse).

Again, I wonder if you actually did not read anything beyond the first sentence. I already said that, since Funcom made the choice to sell the game on Xbox and Playstation, they are responsible to optimize the game as much as they can for those two system. I also think that it is also realistic to understand the limitation of those systems and know that the game is never going to run as well on them as it does on PC, because the game WAS designed to run on PC, not on consoles. They pretty much “threw that in” as a “money grab” to generate more sales and “broaden the player base”. I never one suggested that they should not do anything for either Playstation or Xbox, if anything I have argued for years they they SHOULD do more for those two systems. But reality is what it is, and the game will always perform better on PC.

That is :100: correct. I believe they are misunderstanding the point that the devs were making when they said that the game was not being developed specifically for online official servers specifically. It is because, as you pointed out, they intend for the game to be played on official server, on private servers, offline solo, as co-op between just a couple people. Basically, it is intended to be played in any way that it CAN be played, not specifically one of the options.
