The game has graphic settings, I know this seems like news to some, but those settings are to allow you to set your graphics for the game to run smoothly on your PC.
And there is actually a potatotop setting 
There is also Xbrick and Paystation versions of the game. No say it isn’t so 3 versions of the game so it will run on PC and console smoothly? 
{ya, I know, but that detracts from the point}
Now I’m running an old 1060 6gig, the game runs smooth enough on moderate settings.
Most of the time I’m running 60± 5 fps. when things get busy it might drop to 40. If I’m running along and my fps drops going past someones base, 1: They got a lot of animated ornaments out. 2: I wont report them. Now why is that if the decision to report is based on my PC lagging I don’t report it? Because that isn’t my measure. That simply could be my out dated card.
I mean I’m going to judge you for your 2 dozen sacrificial alters all occupied by buxom blond women, all writhing and moaning. But I’m not going to report it.
Now I’m jogging along, start dropping frames and rubber banding, as I watch bits and pieces of a base slowly load in, I’m going to report that place; well not any more it’s simply a waste of my time, because that seems like the issue is the server not me.
Now once again I will try to explain the ToC isn’t just about causing lag, it may be part of it. But is blocking resources causing lag? Is despawning bosses causing lag? The ToC on building big isn’t all about causing lag, ask a sibling what else it may be about.
