I've spent hours trying to fix the stuttering in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire, and at this point I'm convinced it's an engine issue rather than a hardware problem.

My PC is more than capable of running the game. GPU utilization rarely goes above 50%, CPU usage stays below 50%, average FPS is very high, and even my 1% lows are usually above 80 FPS. Despite that, the game suffers from noticeable microstutters every few seconds. Frametime constantly spikes from around 8 ms to nearly 20 ms.

Things I've already tried:

• Lowering every graphics setting.
• Vulkan renderer.
• Special K.
• Registry tweaks to disable the Unity anti-aliasing workaround.
• FPS limits.
• Different V-Sync options.
• CPU affinity tests.
• Fresh AMD drivers.

None of these made any meaningful difference.

The constant frametime spikes completely break immersion. Has anyone actually found a real fix, or is this simply an unavoidable limitation of Deadfire's Unity engine?

Hi everyone,

I installed the Wasteland of Depravity modlist, but I'm pretty disappointed with its performance.

Besides the constant stuttering, I'm also getting 30-second loading screens whenever I enter or leave buildings, along with massive FPS drops in many areas.

My specs are:

• RX 9060 XT 16GB
• Ryzen 5 5600
• 32GB RAM

Is there anything I can do to improve the performance? Or can anyone recommend a more stable NSFW Fallout 4 modlist?

Thanks in advance!
