Please Bloober, we really need a patch!
I bought the game for ps5 as well as for the pc. While the ps5-version is mostly fine, the pc-version really needs a patch. My most major concerns with the latter one are the following:

1. The stuttering is unbearable. When you traverse the gameworld, every 5 or 10 seconds there are severe stutters which really kills the experience. And i'm running the game on a RTX4090, 13600K and 64GB of RAM.

2. The controller vibrations are completely bugged in the pc-version. A wired dualsense works fine the first 5 or 10 minutes, but after that time, all vibrations suddenly stops working. I then have to move the MOUSE to get the vibrations working again. I have to do this every 5 or 10 minutes which is really annoying. With an XBox-Series-Controller, the situation is even more difficult. Here most of the vibrations doesn't work at all. I get only a slight feedback when i'm attacking an enemy, but that's all. One or two times, i got all vibrations with an xbox-controller somehow working, which means there was a feedback when selecting a point in the game menu or when doors were opend or closed. But after a game-restart, the vibrations were gone again.

While the game itself is pretty good, these bugs really kills the immerson and experience for pc-players atm. What really concerns me is that there is no feedback from Bloober by now that they're aware of the problems and working on it.

So PLEASE bloober, get us a patch which fixes these things.

No stuttering here at all and I have a weaker computer than OP. AMD Ryzen 7 5800, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Ti, and 16GB RAM. Only performance issue I had was frames going to crap once every like 2 hours or so for a brief moment before returning to normal.

As for controller vibration, worked the entire time for me. I use my XBOne controller via USB. Never lost vibration even once. In fact, there were some areas where the controller wouldn't stop its vibration. Was just constantly going.

Yep, they need a patch to add disabling Texture Streaming settings, it will help for the stutter.

Dualsense problems here. Works then turns off, randomly comes back on after I save. Haven't really had problems with stutter either. PS5 version it seemed like every time I went through a door there was stutter though. At one point on PS5 I was in the hospital. Got cornered by a nurse and mannequin. The game practically came to a standstill. I thought it was about to crash. Haven't experienced anything like that on the PC version.

I tried to start the game with the "-NoTextureStreaming" launch param which in theory should disable the texture streaming in UE5-games. Didn't help.

objectively wrong, look at the amount of times the word stutter has been used on forum.

I'm playing with Xbox X/S controllers (Bluetooth mode) and it's working completely fine. Still, a patch is more than necessary (and steam cloud).

Yeah I'm disappointed with how long an optimization patch is taking

Patch is indeed needed, vibrations doesn't work on Xbox controller.

Yep and ps5 controllers lose vibration once a while

Yeah even the controller vibration is broken as of now. This game needs a patch asap.

I am honestly about to refund the game. After the crashing, stuttering I experinced I found a bug that made it unplayable. I can't save. When I try to save, the save file chooses not to appear. I have tried some things, people dont know how to fix it. I am already upset with the censorship of the game(pyramid scene is one example) so I might just pass.
