Digital Foundry: Ori And The Will Of The Wisps Analysis - XB1S dropping as low as 28FPS and X as low as 35FPS
- Thread starter Railgun
- Start date
I'm kinda baffled that they targeted 4k on XboneX when the performance clearly wasn't there.
Dropping to 1440p or something might of made sense.

Folks,
I asked Gennadiy, our Tech Lead, to respond in this chat - they're burning the midnight oil at the moment to get any and all issues fixed, so bare with us. I'm all for just openly discussing the issues we encountered since it's obviously frustrating to us that some people had a sub-par experience, but from what I'm hearing, everything should be smooth sailing soon enough.

While that may work, I'm not installing a driver just for one game.
I use Steam Input, and that works in pretty much everything - except Game Pass games.
The original Ori supported DirectInput (which is what the DS4 falls back to) but Ori 2 dropped support for it.
I think I have an adapter to use my DualShock 4 on Switch that may also work on PC though.
Thanks, i'll wait until the update is out for me to start my play through. Cheers.
Thanks for this update. I'll wait for the for the new patch before starting it.
Can we realistically expect it sometime next week?
Really appreciate it, looking forward to jumping in as soon as things are resolved.
I'm also seeing talks about the HDR being improved in a patch as well. What's the case with the HDR as it is right now? I'll be playing on an OLED so wondering if I should wait for the HDR patch as well.
Well it's just light software. It doesn't really install anything. It runs directly from wherever you put it on your computer, and there's nothing running in the background after you close it.
I played on an AMD GPU on PC and it was mostly fine aside from the odd dropped frame here and there.
I wonder where the bottleneck is on consoles.

DS4Windows is pain free.
Thank you very much for the update and the work and hours being put into the game. It's appreciated by lots of people I can assure you of that.
Not in my experience. It used to interfere with Steam Input, and required permissions elevation every time I connected a controller due to the hack it uses for exclusive mode (which is required to prevent double inputs in many games that support both XInput and DirectInput).
Once that hack was required to get exclusive mode working, I started looking for alternatives - and then Valve opened up Steam Input not that long after.
Yet TW3 a graphically impressive, open World 30fps target XB1/PS4 game did.
We've done this song and dance before...
Developers aren't stupid or a fix like that would be easy. The game is more than likely CPU or storage speed limited.
Don't be naive. We've seen a lot of cases where developers turn up the res at cost of performance.
PC seems fine to m.
GTX 1070 and i5 8600K on 1440p and getting 120-140fps. Both overclocked though.
Don't know how some PC players get such awful performance.

They had a long time to make this, and seemed ok with delays to make it right. I wonder why they didn't just delay it for a couple weeks to get performance right.
With that said, playing on PC and outside a few random stutters performance has been pretty good.
Hope they fix it soon. Games is amazing and deserves praise, not negativity regarding it's performance.

I guess I'll wait for the HDR improvements on PC then.
I'm surprised and saddened to hear the performance can drop so low on Xbox.

For some of us, we also easily hit our target framerate like 120 fps. But there are microstutters here and there the hurts fluidity
I agree that the postings from the studio staff that asked to change of the review score should apologize for this post after the DF analysis. I personally had a pretty smooth experience after the update and a restart of the console, but it seems there are some issues to be solved still.
X game being ported has no bearing on another. It's naive and ignorant to keep using TW3 as proof of why other games can/should work on the Switch.
Watch the video. It's defintiely
I am optimistic Moon will improve Ori 2's performance in time.
They mentioned the reason the Switch version ran so well, including 60FPS Ori animations, was because they worked on that engine for 10 years.

I also have gsync and see my monitor's refresh rate changing in this game so it at least is working. Gsync doesn't solve microstuttering though
Sadly I suspect this is the only way console players are going to get a smooth experience with this game.
Im very skeptical they can patch away these problems.
Ya its a completely confusing situation. It seems way more variable. I have always had a big issue with FPS counting in some games as spells you may use, how many things are going on, how you traverse and so forth could adjust the FPS in some games. So depending even on how a person played it might be different. We have seen that in a lot of games as the variability does make some weird outcomes possible.Yeah same here. It runs fine here. Only problem i have is something the loading zones. It pauses abit with loading it. But thats like ones every 2 hours or so.
Game is looker tho. Like a Disney movie.
Sad sad. Developers have to start prioritizing performance. Even if that means it's not the visual 4K masterpiece you want it to be.
Don't be naive. Videogame developers know a lot more about their engine, assets and hardware than forum posters...
People keep saying this game is CPU intensive but from my complete super science of looking at RTSS stats it seems to much more favour the GPU.
It's not CPU intensive.
GameGPU tested it on multiple CPUs and even a terrible chip like the FX 4300 can hold up to 90 fps.
Hi Aeana,
May I ask what is a cold boot, and do we know when the update is coming next week and what it's supposed to do?
Hold the power button for 10 seconds so the system shuts off completely, then start it up. You'll get the full boot sequence.
I don't know when the update is coming, but here's the info: https://www.orithegame.com/known-issues-bug-status-report/
Windowed-mode G-Sync doesn't work correctly and will cause stuttering in many games (if not all of them).
You need to either edit the registry for the Steam version or use Special K to force it into full-screen exclusive/flip mode for G-Sync to work correctly.
I don't even enable the windowed-mode G-Sync option now.
Ah I see you must be a scientist too.
The game doesn't seem to be that demanding on PC at all really, which makes the console performance all the more perplexing.
That said it does like to stutter. True Fullscreen mode seems a lot better than windowed in this regard.
It's great to see the developer being so transparent and clear about it. I however can't help but wonder how this happened. Myself I haven't seen much issues yet but I am also not very far in the game yet.
