  • Metaphor: Refantazio just launched a demo on Steam and it's performance is really all over the place. The game is extremely CPU limited, but luckily there is a fix for that. In this video I'll show you how to implement the Special-K fix for Refantazio, and also show you the differences in performance before and after.

    As with all mods you might get mixed results with this. To completely remove this fix just delete the dxgi.dll and dxgi.ini files in the game's directory. There are some reports of controllers stopping working, some crashes, etc. This also doesnt seem to work on Linux at all.

    Thanks for the video, definitely going to try this! I have a 13600K and an Intel Arc A770 and was getting basically the same performance numbers as you did at the start lol
    At least I can confirm that Intel Arc gpus work well with the game, for anyone who wants to know that

    • @Mostly_Positive_Reviews
      @Mostly_Positive_Reviews  14 дней назад +1

      Yeah, there's very little difference between a 13600K and 14600K in actual gaming performance, so it makes sense. Good to hear it runs fine on Arc!

      After seeing how the game performed the day before yesterday I was quite bummed. I'm not an avid JRPG fan, but there are a few that I like, and this looked interesting. The game performing like this is really strange, and even stranger that a simple .dll file fixes it 🤣

      It's an issue with optimization, (obviously you know that) but it's not like it's using too many resources, if you look at your task manager while playing, you'll notice that you'll be lagging while your gpu and CPU are under light stress- the game struggles to use a PC to it's fullest.

      @@YegoKroeten Yes, I noticed when I suspected that the game was too slow, I don't have a powerful PC but it should be more than enough to run this game considering the other games i play. I hope that by the time it's released they'll do something to improve it, the demo patch helped but not enough

      @Mostly_Positive_Reviews  14 дней назад +1

      I have had one or two crashes before this fix, but also 2 crashes after the fix, so not entirely sure the fix is causing it. It might though. Probably best to wait for the full game and then see if the fix for the full game works well. I think there is also now an updated file for this fix that can be downloaded, maybe worth a shot to see if it fixes the crashing issues.

      I think it's best to see what the final game runs like. In many cases the demo runs much worse than the official release so it's really hard to tell whether the PS5 version will still have those issues with the full game.

      The port of FFXVI is not bad at all. It runs faster than this game with graphics that are much more complex and at least has options like DLSS, FSR and frame gen. The only drawback is the 30 FPS cutscenes, but that's easily fixable with a mod.
