For us, and of course to many others as well.

There is a more important reason for us, though. For ours as well, but more to keep us 100% independent.

What is the point of Early Access? Is it to get money to keep the studio alive and keep working on the game? For some studios, maybe, sure. But on September 20 th, we’re not releasing the game, are we? We’re releasing the Early Access version of the game. Designing new features, implementing them, making the game better. This is exactly what we’ve been doing for the last seven years. I wanted to take a look at this list of tasks and maybe kill something to make space for the new thing. Just didn’t have the time to implement the feature. He came around, eventually, but it didn’t change the fact he had more than enough on his plate. Initially, the programmer was not convinced. In my mind, it significantly enhanced the experience. I really wanted – no, needed! – a certain feature in the game. I cannot imagine the game without it.” – I replied. At the same time, though, it’s not a game that will “ wow” you with its graphics.“I won’t be able to squeeze that in” – said the programmer. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a bad-looking game. Since then, we’ve seen numerous games that pushed the graphical boundaries of PC games. Graphics-wise, I’m not particularly impressed with Witchfire. Additionally, we did not experience any mouse acceleration or smoothing issues. The game also has an FOV slider, and it supports AMD FSR 2.0 and Intel XeSS. PC gamers can adjust the quality of Shadows, Textures, Foliage, Effects and more. It’s also worth noting that Witchfire comes with a lot of graphics settings to tweak. So yeah, for high-end GPUs like the RTX 4090, DLSS 3 Frame Generation is a free performance boost. We also did not experience any visual or graphical artifacts. This was mainly due to the fact that the game was already running with over 144fps. Now the good news here is that the extra mouse latency that DLSS 3 Frame Generation introduces is very small. And when we enabled DLSS 3 Frame Generation, we were able to get a minor 13% performance increase. With DLSS 3 Quality, we were able to get a minimum of 154fps. At Native 4K/Ultra Settings, our NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090 was able to push a minimum of 91fps. Witchfire appears to be well-optimized, even in its current Early Access state.
