Perhaps one reason why KCD2 is in such a great state is down to its choice of engine. Even with the older and/or mid-range components, frame-times remained solid when targeting 60fps.

In actuality, this kind of sentiment has been voiced before. But it will cost them a lot. I’ll give you an example: I heard of a group of technical artists being fired.
