Nioh 3 just got a Steam demo, and given Team Ninja’s history I’m surprised how well it runs on my aging rig

Team Ninja's recent release, Rise of the Ronin, faced performance issues on PC, including stuttering, framerate fluctuations, and crashes, similar to problems seen in their earlier title, Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty. Nioh 2 also had launch challenges, while Ninja Gaiden 4 performed decently but lacked customizable settings. Players with a Ryzen 5 5600H and 16GB RAM experienced mixed results with Nioh 3, achieving around 60 fps at 1080p on "very low" settings, but framerate could drop to 44 fps in the open world. The introduction of frame generation support in Nioh 3 improved performance, allowing players to use higher graphics settings while maintaining at least 60 fps. Players reported minimal input lag during the demo, and the game was found to be demanding on platforms like the Steam Deck OLED.

This new FPS game uses your framerate as your health bar, so I’ll brb after I’ve bought a 240Hz monitor

FPS Quest is a unique meta game that uses framerate as a health bar, allowing players to navigate a low-framerate environment without the discomfort typically associated with performance issues. Players traverse dungeons armed with a shotgun, experiencing framerate dips as they take damage, but can restore it by defeating enemies or adjusting game settings. The game features mechanics such as demolishing walls and removing doors, which affect gameplay and map navigation. It includes roguelike elements, cheats, glitches, and customizable settings, encouraging multiple runs to unlock upgrades and weapons. FPS Quest is set to launch on Steam, with no announced release date yet.
