PS5 Game Performance is just awful and unplayable

It's a nightmare playing with a Lightning Spear build and going to high end maps, completing them at 15 FPS..

I thought that 0.2.1 was supposed to improve the performance, especially related to effects like ice damage. I've jumped to my ice staff monk on standard and T1 maps drop to 30fps with all settings low (fsr, ultra performance, dynamix culling and standard shadows). Hell, even my ice spear huntress drops to 30fps on the same settings, and I'm talking about the cemetery in Act 1. At this point the game looks only slightly better than Diablo 3. At least make it perform on the same level...

Just want to co sign this. It's really bad on PS5.

Anyone else having things that you have killed just randomly walking across the map still?

Sometimes they follow me around the map acting as if they are going to attack, other times they walk aimlessly. I end up targeting them again because I am not sure at first if they are dead or alive.

I was hoping that would have been fixed in this patch, but if anything it is happening more often.

Bump for the cause.

What is really incredible is that the first item in the "high priority bug" is "Hideout Music Player does not work".

Really ? Is that really more important than having a stable and smooth engine ?

Why is it so hard ?
Look at a game like the latest Doom (Dark ages). Ok, gameplay is not incredible, but the engine is amazing and running at 60FPS on all consoles.
One could say it's not the same type of game so we can't compare their engines.
Ok so let's look at Diablo4 : bad game, but perfectly smooth engine running at 60 fps on console.
Even on previous gen console (ps4), Diablo4 was running at 30fps, but it was a STABLE and constant 30fps. So it was better than POE2 on PS5 !!!

Why GGG can't do it ?
Is it an expertise issue ? Is it difficult to find a veteran console developer that could bring this expertise to GGG ?

You have been transparent (more than many game companies) on many topics in the past. Please be transparent on that topic too : just tell us what is the issue please.

May I ask where you read about the high priority Hideout music player issue? I reported it this weekend to support.

2 maps.. one strong box unique hadn't time to open : disconnected and nothing in my inventory after reconnect (lose currency and 3 uniques items !!)and loosing map !!
other one loot a divine and just disconnect after get ir.. reconnect : nothing in my inventory and return in lobby loosing the map and my stuff !!!$

Probably no answer to my post like always!! BUT THIS TIME, I STOP PLAYING THIS F... GAME !! Shame on you and hope nobody would play on it by the time !!!

In the first topic of the PS5 bug report subforum.
It's called 'Known Issues'.

I don't know who has 30 frames there, mine goes down to 3-5 with catastrophic freezes and loss of textures. Terrible performance, at best the game goes at 40 fps when there is no action, but as soon as mobs and their special effects appear on the map, the performance drops to 15 fps and below. With each patch, the situation only gets worse.
