The DSOG editors named the most poorly optimized games of 2022

Every year, the journalists of the Dark Side of Gaming portal sum up the results regarding the optimization of games. Now projects are presented that let us down.

It is noted that the latest, and not the starting version of each game is evaluated. All games were tested in the editorial office and placed in a general list without assigning any places.

  • The Witcher 3 Next-Gen
  • The Callisto Protocol
  • Gotham Knights
  • DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 Empires
  • Syberia: The World Before
  • Stranger of Paradise Final Fantasy Origin
  • Saints Row
  • Steelrising
  • ELEX II
  • Destroy All Humans! 2 – Reprobed

The updated The Witcher 3 is still in a terrible state due to issues with CPU optimization, as well as crashes that occur with shadows and reflections following turning on ray tracing. Therefore, it is recommended to use the old version of the game and mods – they will make the game look even better.

The Callisto Protocol has optimization issues, especially when ray tracing is enabled. Until now, the game cannot support 60 fps even on the best processors and video cards.
