After playing Alan Wake a year ago, I brought my attention back to Quantum Break... it took a while but it finally was a price I was willing to pay and here we are.
The game itself is really fun and the abilities you have make things interesting. Performance wise... It's extremely GPU heavy unless you use the upscaler... which creates a motion blur like effect. Performance is generally north of 60fps* but some effects can cause it to drop below this metric.
* Should be noted that while the FPS might be above 60 there is some really odd frame pacing that really makes thing feel off. Frametimes normally have minimal variance if the scene is relatively static; however in this game there is as much as +/- 5ms.
