Definitely one thing i am glad for as well is that reports of PC performance were quite overblown, at least the launch day version. My 3080 defaulted to "ultra" and it worried me quite a bit but nah, average frames are about 80 at least in the castle still quite early.
Oh don't you worry, if you are only getting 80 in the castle then you are about to hit a cliff
Slightly worrying they promoted an Nvidia update to make the game run better when that update had nothing to do with this game. Also, I've just had a decent size Steam patch and it didn't make the game run any better, and to boot Raytracing is implemented worse than the PS5 spiderman version in terms of faking it.
But, on the plus side, it's not terrible and it is fixable. Seems a little cyberpunk'ish in that the settings seem to do the opposite of what they are supposed to though.
On the trans discussion, I've steered clear of it all. Though it does seem a bit dodgy that the first blatant trans person you come into contact with has the same pitched down bug your created character has and is also not credited as an actor. In fact, the first black character of note has a similar voice issue where they've definitely slowed the tempo down too. Possibly nothing to it, but they both definitely stand out compared to the other cast of characters so far. It's all a bit odd considering the eyes on the game.
