I can confirm the performance issues. When i first go into the game, it is maxing either 2 or 3 of my cpu cores (i5 4460@ 3.2Ghz, GTX 1060 6GB, 8GB or RAM). What actually helps to spread the load on all cores is minimize the game, go to processes, check the games .exe and set the affinity to only 1 core, accept, and then check the box to use all cores again, go back into the game - and all cores are utilized. Looks like the game launches without proper multithreading(when i launch it, it maxes out 2 cores on loading screen, when i actually go into the game, usually core0 is at 10% and the rest is at 80-100%). But even after that when the load is spread somewhat evenly across all cores, it still tanks hard in places like fort joys market - when there are many NPCs etc. All cores 80-100%, fps drops hard. Very low preset or Ultra - the difference is maybe 3-5fps. And after hearing that the performance gets even worse in act2, im scared :P A performance patch would be really cool Larian.
