Something is terribly wrong with Shaders since 3.27

Bro I can play games that released this year on ultra settings at 60fps just fine
Hades 2, Arc raiders, Expedition 33
All of them run incredible on my gtx1050
But PoE, a game that released back in 2013, runs like a turd, despite the graphics changes done to it have been mediocre, a game this old should not run like this
Hell people with better GPUs than me are struggling to play it.
The last time I was able to play PoE comfortably was back in 3.24 before the "optimization" patch of 3.25 that introduced these awful loading times and killed the frame rate.
Fix your game.


Exactly, same GPU here. I can play other newer games at 60 fps yet shaders are loading constantly in PoE and the dynamic resolution turns the game into a blurry mess of pixels any time more than 1 player is on-screen lol

More than 1 player? Lucky you! I'm alone in Hideout, open my inventory and BOOM 5 FPS.

Just loading into town, my game uses 4.6 GB of RAM and 2.2 GB of VRAM.

With your setup, that is over the amount of VRAM u have, maybe it is time for a gpu upgrade.

Maybe it's time to stop talking nonsense when it's obvious that the problem is on GGG's side?

read the whole thread before posting.... many different gpu has the problem, not only gtx 1050
I have 458 deaths on my leagu starter because of the game freezing during combat and I just die. Tried doing everything I could to bandaid the issue, but I’m done. It’s just unplayable this patch.
Would be nice for somebody acnowledge it at least. Some message in spirit of, yeah, its a problem, we are working on it...

Read the thread before posting. I have no reason to upgrade my GPU when I can play any game just fine, except the ancient 2013 game for whatever reason.
