Testing with 30 different GPUs is serious dedication.
That being said, HFW is on my wishlist once I get through some of my backlog. If someone on here has played it already, how is it?
I'm only a few hours in, 5600x and 6900XT. Very pleased with performance at 3440x1440p, on high(with FSR2). Game looks amazing and I cap at 73 to be in my freesync range and get 0 drops.
Animations are really smooth and voice acting is too notch, so many NPCs doing unique animations, the gameplay is just as fun as the first with a few extra skills and abilities. If you enjoyed the first you'll enjoy the second. My only criticism is they did something to her face, head on she looks wide? compared to the first game, it's jarring and takes me out of cutscenes for a moment, but her side profile looks the same.
Agree with @haytch it's definitely one of the better pc ports I've played. I have about 12 hours in and noticed no real issues. Story is an interesting continuation of the first and there's some good improvements. Lots of new weapons, totally revamped skill tree/leveling and some new mechanics like gliding ( though I'm still finding gliding a little clunky, but that may be because I'm not used to it yet).
It's definitely worth picking up.
