so I haven't played FFXIV since mid-EW
why the fuck is DLLS forced now?
makes my game run like shit..

Skill issue, upgrade
Turn on DLAA in the Nvidia app while you have DLSS on and restart
For real though if your PC is that potato, turn on FSR and turn the 3D resolution scale to 99

The real issue with this game is genuinely the people in charge of it.
Prioritizing shareholders and ignoring consumer feedback is something only an old and incompetent person who should not hold their position would do. I get Squeenix is a company, and like all companies they are profit-oriented, but alienating your entire consumer-base away seems like a pretty stupid way to go about it, doesn't it?
I've never really modded XIV, but I used to play it for the raiding and group content. My favorite was Bozja with the Savage Dungeon and all the unique shit you could do with it before the Tranny Cabal took it over for clears.
We're not gonna get that back it seems.
I wish I could tell you the game will recover in the future with 8.0 but it obviously won't. It's only downhill from here. And I wish I was trolling.

Because Takahashi Ricedicku told the shareholders that AI is the future and then everybody in the zoom meeting clapped.

Last I checked you don't have to run with any kind of improvement software like DLSS

I was laughing and having a good rime until we had 3 hours of cutscenes about how my competitor didnβt know anything about alpacas other than ew stinky. And then got her skull bonked, then got herself kidnapped and all of our progress reset but then everyone praised for for some unknown reason. Maybe it happened off screen

It's off if your 3D Resolution Scaling is set to 100.

you're gonna have to play around with other things because it's not the frame-gen stuff doing it
dawntrail in general bumped up the system reqs

My framerate was awful until I changed it from 120FPS to unlimited and then it was good
Came back for the free login and was very disappointed
Didn't notice any graphics changes, but I guess it has been a couple years
Just tried to fish for the 6.5x fish I didn't have
But running around Limsa/etc. was grim. I know JP players (and asians in general) have shit taste, but the amount of streetwear, modern uwu knit hat shit, and neon sci fi glams I saw was horrid
And then I further shit my pants at MNK becoming just press glowing button, GNB not needing to care about charges, and BLM being what it is now
Holy shit I want to hope 8.0 will be good but I've got no idea now

i can run much more demanding games fine without dlss and they run like shit when i turn it on so i think this game forcing it is what's making it shit
it's weird because if i bump the game to 120fps it runs fine

Or fucked forever because I missed the first ones?

go back to some of the stormblood areas or equip gear from that era and compare it to the clothing, gear and environment design of dawntrail, it's a seamless transition until you're actually directly comparing the two side by side and then you'll REALLY notice

I downloaded the zoomhack. Just like +4 fov is a world of difference.
What if my laptop isnβt a potato, but itβs running too hot (and blowing compressed air into it isnβt working)? Are there any settings adjustments that will make it run cooler?
Here are some 3D whores to apologize for my retardation

If the laptop has a high refresh rate monitor, cap the fps on nvidia or amd control panel
