The Last of Us Part I's PC Port in Bad Technical Shape, Developer Investigating Performance Issues

The Last of Us Part 1 — finally out on PC — is getting bombarded with negative Steam reviews, calling out its poor performance and optimisation. The game has received multiple reports in regard to hard crashes, stuttering, and long loading times - even on the most beefed-up gaming rigs. The shader-building process is also a major concern, eating up a chunk of time and resources, whilst idling in the main menu. Developer Naughty Dog has confirmed that it’s 'actively investigating' the issues, and hopes to release performance patches soon.
