Game performance is awful and it's hard to enjoy the game

I'm playing on 1080 with a good Gaming PC (not laptop). I've optimized the game so it will favor performance, audio is on low, Trade & Global Chats are on a high number.

When I'm doing normal maps my fps are 90 (I've limited in the options).

When I open a map with delirium the fps drop to 30 while I'm standing still not fighting anyone. Once there is density and I'm fighting many monsters the fps drop to 10-20.

The game is barely playable and it's hard to enjoy it. This issue exist to other players I know that have a pretty crazy rig (7000$ PC).

please optimize the game so we can enjoy it and see wth is going on in maps.

People with super high end PCs like me also have massive performance issues.
GGG needs to address this.

It's a tough one to crack though. I'm pretty sure the main culprit is just math.
In games like this your CPU is constantly doing a LOAD of calculations for spells which quickly snowballs.

Smooth motion or frame gen greatly helps but that is a massive crutch for modern games in general.

One of my top gripes for sure.

To be fair, your card is something like 10 years old. The 1080s had an amazing run, but at some point it's time to upgrade.

i'm not a fan of big screens. I love and use 24 inch top tier 1080 screen and I use gtx 3060TI. it's not that old, bought the pc less than 3 years ago and it cost me 3100$ at the time.

The FPS are low even if you're not fighting anything. just open a map with delirium and FPS drop massively.

As for calculations it amazes me that the servers don't lag much due to all the calculations.
