100%, I spent money on this computer just to run this specific game at 1440, it's a permanent bug..

I feel like it's probably been neglected for a fix simply because the game got power crept so much that alchemy never actually had a chance to be useful. That, and the bugs needed to brew things also didn't stack and ate up inventory so fast that people despised it.

You didn't put it in a jar.

Lighting does this, it is like it is rendering the reflection off the liquid.

I’m still looking for the fireflies

u/Sweet_Woodpecker7592 8h ago

The same while using cauldrons

u/PreferenceBig1531 8h ago

It does this in houses and confined spaces, especially when close to walls, at night, and/or when using lanterns in doors.

How is it possible to use FSR upscaler with native AA?

1

u/Attunhaler 7h ago

It's a setting of the upscaler quality:
Native AA, Quality, Balanced...

u/Sleepinkoalas 8h ago

super common in dark areas.

u/Dear-East568 7h ago

Its a known problem. Just lighting artifacting I think

Same issue with me on a 5080 with RR on. It comes and goes with each patch.

u/AkushiArts 7h ago

Ig just a bug or the upscaling causing problems. It happens to me at certain places including the one you are at, though it's only there when I'm in the menu to craft once i step away from the cauldron it's fixed.

Why wouldn’t you use RR on a 9070xt :( I play on 4k and have FSR 4.1 set to performance with everything maxed and RR on. Framegen helps too!

u/Marshall1337 5h ago

I know it’s a bug but I like the sort of creepy otherworldly element to it while I’m getting my cauldron on.

u/GumballREKT24 4h ago
