Alex Battaglia presents the DF tech review for Forspoken, looking at whether the rocky launch of the PS5 version is smoothed over for the PC platform. Despite the exciting inclusion of DirectStorage to speed up load times and plenty of graphical options, including two forms of RT, there are some deep flaws here that need to be addressed.

00:00:02 Introduction
00:00:35 Initial impressions and settings menu
00:01:20 FSR, DLSS, XeSS and TAA issues
00:04:20 Dynamic resolution issues (after 31/1 patch)
00:05:30 Variable rate sharing (VRS)
00:06:03 Ray-tracing options: shadows and AO
00:10:03 Other bugs and oddities
00:11:21 DirectStorage load time tests, more weirdness
00:15:26 Performance, 'optimised' settings and VRAM issues
00:19:16 Wrapping up
