Hi there! Just seeing if other people have the same issue that I have.

My i7 Geforce gtx 1650 laptop does play the game, but it feels a bit slow whenin dx11, a bit like theres a delay, or if my chars are moving through denser air.

If I switch to Vulkan the performance is way better and way more snappy. Only thing is that it crashes every time I get into a dialog.

So I am wondering if others do have the same problem, or have some insights. TYVM!

Vulcan should provide better performance, at least on paper.

That being said, I've seen multiple reports of people finding Vulcan crashing. Thankfully you can use comparability mode (DX11).

I don't think anyone has figured out why yet. Doesn't seem like it's a large widespread thing. But there's not enough information to see the common denominator. The devs would need probably a dxdiag report and a copy of the games config to see what people are doing.

I've submitted every crash with crash report, hopefully they will find use for it.

But it turned out that somehow win 10 want using my Nvidia card, but the standard Intel one instead. After switching over my issues stopped and things look smooth and fluid.
