[KCD2] If you're using an Xbox Series S and have concerns about the game's optimization - don't. I bought KCD2 a week ago, and frankly, I'm surprised by how smoothly the game runs.
I was worried about Kuttenberg and expected frame rate drops and other graphical issues, but no, I didn't notice anything. It runs at a stable 30 FPS, and the gameplay is quite comfortable. Special thanks to the developers for optimizing sequences where the story pits us against a large number of enemies ("For Victory" for example) – the game handles it well. I've heard stories about Warhorse targeting the XSS console from the start, meaning they developed the game for it instead of downgrading versions from more powerful consoles like XSX or PS5. If it's true, it's a pretty smart move, and it's nice to hear about it. Managing a device's resources is an art and a science, after all. Especially in times when many games are developed on UE5 and then can't handle the processing of lumens and nanites.
