Pretty sure the first game was just not optimized very well. I can run KCD2 at a very stable 60+ FPS on my RTX 3060 on high/ultra settings. The first one had about 20 FPS less in comparable environments. Not too surprising, considering that it was the dev team’s first CryEngine project. It’s notoriously hard to work with.
We know someone working at Warhorse and he arranged us to get a tour at the company after hours by the HR person which was great. I recall one of the devs saying “You know why they call it the CryEngine right? It’s cuz you cry everytime you have to use it”
That’s great news, I was worried about performance.
That actually sounds wrong. Do they use the same level of graphics or was the first game optimized THAT badly?
That badly. Updates made it better, though.

Wow, lucky you! That’s pretty funny.
