Hey,
So I brought a new PC that got delivered just over a week ago (specs posted below) and am overall very pleased with everything.
I am able to play Death Stranding with no performance issues, however, Oxygen Not Included (ONI) is simply unplayable. When I start a new game the screen freezes and jumps every few seconds, and this happens in the options menu before I even get into the game.
I have tried to play the game a number of times and all but one time I was unable to (one time it randomly opened and played perfectly).
I have scoured the internet to see if this is an ONI known issue but i can only find people having performance issues when they are many hours into a game. Which is making me think it is something on my end with my PC.
My GPU drivers are all up to date. Though maybe worth noting is that GForce Experience does not find ONI, but has found my other Steam games no problem, and GForce Experience shows that ONI is a supported game.
Any guidance or thoughts on this would be appreciated!
