  16. problem, because this game is so laggy. I

  29. astonishing a game can be released like

  36. fiddle with the graphics settings,

    Segment details1:23–1:24 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_35
  37. nothing seems to make any difference. I

  38. did download the new driver for Nvidia and

  40. either. It's kind of weird because I

    Segment details1:30–1:32 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_39
  41. downloaded Life of Pi, which was on Xbox

  45. maintain around a frame rate of 45 to 60

    Segment details1:45–1:47 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_45
  47. really an excuse to say that I need a new

  51. fairly well. But even during the brief

    Segment details1:56–1:58 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_50
  52. moments when the game was running kind of

  53. smoothly, I didn't really enjoy the game

    Segment details2:01–2:03 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_52
  54. anyway because it just feels like a

    Segment details2:03–2:05 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_53
  55. rip-off of Elden Ring or Dark Souls. It

  56. plays almost exactly the same, but maybe a

    Segment details2:07–2:10 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_55
  57. bit faster. I would say that it doesn't

    Segment details2:15–2:17 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_58
  60. what this game is about because if you

  61. played a Dark Souls game, it's basically

  62. exactly the same with Sites of Grace,

  67. difference is if you hold the left

    Segment details3:06–3:08 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_82
  84. like a cross between a smelly hot dog and

  86. or it tastes really bland, boring, and

  87. lacking in lustre. I wasn't really too

  93. baffling to me that this game was made in

  96. reasons, I can't really recommend this

    Segment details3:46–3:48 · rev_54fd3cc84982d8674a0c047a635a6a70_98
  100. and boring, and the performance issues

  107. was really popular last year, and if you
