A fresh restart and closing down background processes like a video streaming on my second screen allowed me to play without significant variance in the frame rate for a good few hours, even in instances of high action. It never became unplayable, but it was certainly noticeable, and that’s something that shouldn’t happen on a system that exceeds the recommended spec (which lists a GTX 1060). Running a Core i7 4770K with a GeForce GTX 1070 and 16GB RAM on Arkane’s “Auto” settings (a mix of Very High and Ultra), I was initially faced with unstable frame rates: I would cruise along at 60fps for a good part of a level before experiencing random drops into the 40s. My experience with Dishonored 2 wasn’t flawless, but I seem to have dodged the worst of it. That said, I haven’t been able to replicate those problems. Arkane has acknowledged the issues and promised an update to resolve them “in the coming days.” The PC version of Dishonored 2 has had a rocky launch, with many gamers reporting major performance issues and giving it a “Mixed” rating on the Steam store page.
