Like average ps5 users have any gauge on how performance really is.

Noone cares about the ps5 performance of the game.
Everyone knows that not even 5% of the playstation fanbase will play it.
Their hype for Baldur's Gate was fake cause they thought it would be a ps5 exclusive through the back door.
Proof is that they dont even know how the game is called and are consistently butchering its name on twitter.
When playing on my PC:
Clocked 120 hours @ act III.
- Initial load up: 48 to 60 secs
- Fast travel on local on map: 5 to 10 secs
- Fast travel external map/region: 48 to 60 secs
I've endured longer loading for much less.

How many loading screens are their?
Loading gate 2023?
This game is made for pc and got the hype for that platform. Its great that those who want to play it on ps5 can but I doubt it will be many.
Can you elaborate why would you think that?
It just seems that pc is the platform the game focused on. It launched a month early after 3 years of early access and a minimum 6 years dev time. It works and runs very well on pc and if this analysis is correct that the consoles just either have that the time to be developed properly or they are just not strong enough.
Maybe they've done the maths and underestimated how much it would sell on ps5 before the bear fucking hype and its just not been given the time and resources it needed.
I dunno. Maybe?
This has to be one of the worst performers for a PS5 native app, no?
It suggests to me that it's a badly optimised port. I might be wrong, but it's disappointing.
43 seconds? It takes nowhere near that long on PC
i dont understand why performance settings is same with quality mode.
Why not reduce it to increase the FPS?
1080p and drops below 30 fps. I hope this is an incorrect analysis.
What happened this generation?
PS5 SSD should fill ALL available RAM in 3 seconds maximum. Loading in this game is entirely CPU limited, even PC version has long loading times but you can brute force them by using fast CPU. They are not using PS5 I/O at all.
Because the scope of games these days are big.What happened is that developers don't have time, skill or simply don't want to optimize their games (like they used to). Almost all new games run like garbage compared to how they look.
John is AmericanHe's German. Just like Alex and John.
Good pointSo he is British with an American accent? Yeaaahhhh... *John voice*
I have over 150h on the pc version and damn had it many bugs and performance issues. Loading times are even worse on most pcs than what it shown here. Did you even play the game?
They thought with the pc version that the concurrent players had their expectations beaten by like 8 times so yea they didn't know it will sell this mich on any platform.
The reason spencer caved for the series s is because he also didn't see it coming. It will sell really well on both consoles.
480p incoming. Or 720p at 30fpsAt this point I'm wondering how it's going to work on the Series S. The PS5 version has issues and no doubt the Series X will as well because its close to it.
But everyone said the game was flawless on pc and there wasn't bugs. Is the narrative changing now?
I haven't played it yet. I can't wait to though. I'm picking it up after atargield and cyberpunk.
I’m not going to refute anything shown in the video, but as someone who’s currently several hours into the PS5 version, I’ll say that the loading is similar to The Witcher 3 - there’s an initial longish load time to get into the game, then nothing noticeable until you fast travel. I’ve only fast travelled once in around 5 hours because there is very little need to, unlike the aforementioned The Witcher 3.
In all that time, I haven’t noticed any bugs or performance issues, in both performance and quality mode.
Most importantly, it plays fantastic on console with a controller. I’m stoked that we get the chance to play this kind of game on console.

It will be 1080p, this is CPU problem not GPU.At this point I'm wondering how it's going to work on the Series S. The PS5 version has issues and no doubt the Series X will as well because its close to it.
It never was. The difference is what's there is soo good that it doesn't matter to much. Can't say that for other rpgs tho.

I can't wait to get to it. I'm hoping they fix act 3 by the time I pick it up.
Also, a lot of these bugs might be fixed.
This game is going to sell a ton of copies in consoles, because the game is pretty famous currently. Happened with Skyrim, where people didn’t touch a RPG game bought for PS3 and 360.Noone cares about the ps5 performance of the game.

Wtf that's worse than starfield.>5.5GB/s SSD moves data to ~14GB available RAM (not even considering decompression multipliers)
>takes 43 seconds to do this job
Do they have high school interns at Larian or what?
I wouldnt go that far. This game mechanics doesnt suit the normies.This game is going to sell a ton of copies in consoles, because the game is pretty famous currently. Happened with Skyrim, where people didn’t touch a RPG game bought for PS3 and 360.
Normies Watch their favorite youtubers play this and buy this even if they play 5 minutes and stop.I wouldnt go that far. This game mechanics doesnt suit the normies.
Skyrim and other rpg work, because of the nature of those games.
At mostly, it will be 8m to 10m total.
The series have around 8m-9m estimate (not actual sale).
That is a good idea for PC gamers as well. They're still patching this game after all.Seems like I'll wait some months to play this then
Haven't you heard? It's heavily CPU limited. PS5 Pro will very likely not save this game performance, or not much.Pro consoles will save us.
2 months later: Balder's Gate 4 releases.
sums up gaming these days.Normies Watch their favorite youtubers play this and buy this even if they play 5 minutes and stop.
Maybe you can fix it for them , if they hire you ?>5.5GB/s SSD moves data to ~14GB available RAM (not even considering decompression multipliers)

Ah yes the classic "You do it then". I guess you don't have any criticism about any game ever, right? Better yet, you wouldn't have criticism for any movie, music, piece of electronic, everything really. After all, you'd have to be able to make those things yourself for your opinion to be valid.Maybe you can fix it for them , if they hire you ?

adamsapple - think you should update the OP and add a disclaimer here that like a dozen PS5 players have reported otherwise.

Clocked 120 hours @ act III.

97 MC my ass.
What are your PC specs? I would say my load times are substantially less overall.When playing on my PC:

First two acts are fine right now, and most egregious bugs in Act 3 should be fixed by last 2 patches.That is a good idea for PC gamers as well. They're still patching this game after all.

Going by the PC version, a CPU issue.Probably a teraflops issue. Maybe will run better on series x, although divinity wasnt exactly a technical marvel so who knows
