Endgame Performance on Console is Unacceptable
Hi,
First of all, I'd like to say that the game itself is really good and I had a great time playing through act 1-3 (twice, warrior and ranger) and cruel 1-3 (warrior) However, the current state of the game on the PS5 console is TERRIBLE!. Even with the LOWEST GRAPHICS, the game struggles to maintain 40-60 fps! Endgame content is literally unplayable, especially BRACH maps, fps drops below 20. This makes it impossible to dodge obstackles and monsters or use potion. I've spent 100+ hours (first time playing poe, 2 characters) just to find out that I can't play endgame? Another thing: console quality of life. There's no loot filter, and the auto-aim is a joke. I can't play certain builds, for example, a MARK build on ranger, because it simply marks a random or normal monster instead of a blue or yellow one. What the hell? I know this is a beta, but the game shouldn't be available in this state on consoles. Please take the time to polish and fix it, or simply don't release it on consoles (PC only) Last bumped on Jan 4, 2025, 1:51:36 AM

Agree. Also, bank/inventory management/craft are terrible with controller, as whole UI is PC based currently. Controllers support advertisement is not just to map keyboard keys to controller buttons...

Yes on xbox it is the same.
I was totaly disapointed about the graphics. So i am not a graphics bitch i played all classes witch and pathfinder to endgame but at that point it feels very cluncky. I would say the same please when you dont want to get hands on the console version than leave it behind. It is a pitty |

Playing as a lvl 86 invoker monk on PS5, and I struggle a lot with rituals and breaches, since the fps goes down below 30 and some random On-Death Effect kills me which I cannot even notice with the insane screen tearing. The endgame was definitely not tested on consoles and dying due to performance issues every 2 hours is halting my endgame progression. Also, please provide us with a loot filter. I noticed there is a placeholder for that in the options menu.
