Results and Final Word
As Mentioned Earlier, our aim was running The Medium at 30FPS on 1080p with a stable performance. With the above settings, we managed to do that easily. The Synergy of RTX 2060 and Ryzen 5 3600 is pretty decent to run this game. The Split Screen part of the game is quite resource-hogging. You should expect some FPS drop during that time. But it was playable enough so we have fewer complaints about that.
If you are running on a lower-end system like a 1050 TI, 1660/TI, or 1060/TI, the split-screen gameplay can become an issue for you. I would highly recommend dialing down the Shadows and Textures to low and turn off most of the lighting settings for the game. That should give you enough FPS Boost to run the game at a respectable frame rate.
That would be all from this guide. Do leave a comment if this guide helped you in any way. Your thoughts and or queries are also welcome in the comments below. Thanks for reading and I will see you in the next one!
