        Stellar Blade performs well despite using Denuvo. Imagine how much better it will run when Denuvo is removed.

          Stop blaming developers. It’s management that doesn’t want to give the developers the time and money to optimize their game. Devs know how to optimize their game, they aren’t stupid. They can’t do shit if they don’t get the time to work on it.

          Also

          So, ports like Stellar Blade on PC are great for fans to see, and I'm hoping game developers and publishers can look at this as a template going forward.

          Yeah that’s not how it works, you can’t look at other games and see how to optimize your game. Every game engine and game works differently under the hood.

              No, it doesn't, lol. I tried to run the demo on the lowest settings, it used all my vram. I can run Red Dead Redemption 2 with my 4GB vram gpu, but I can't run Stellar Blade?

                That's probably mostly true but optimisation is becoming a lost art form that some devs just don't know.

                    You're below minimum requirements on VRAM and you say it's not optimized. Well done.

                        It's a negative feedback loop.

                        The less time you can spend optimizing games the less you know how to optimize games. The less you know how to optimize games the more time it takes to optimize games. Optimizing games becomes too costly for management. Goto 10.

                              People often say "developers" when referring to development studios, which includes management. They don't necessarily mean individual programmers.

                                      Or it will run exactly the same because it has a minimal performance impact when implemented correctly, which seems to be the case here.
