Why wasn't there any content about game performance fixes in the 0.3 update

Please update the game performance. I know that the graphics quality of POE1 is much worse than that of POE2, but I'll take the seemingly more complex Black Myth Wukong or even Cyberpunk as examples. My computer is A 10750H+2070S laptop. I can even run these two 3A games stably at 60FPS with DLSS on at a decent graphics quality. However, since version 0.2, the performance of POE2 has been astonishingly poor. For the first time, I encountered a situation where my computer, when plugged in, had less and less power as I played with it. The GPU was almost only occupied a small part, while the CPU was running at full capacity like crazy. What are you guys doing? Perhaps you can say my computer is not good, but I still run such a powerful CPU with a 12700KF console and it will still be fully loaded, especially in the endgame. Even with a 4090, sometimes the frame rate can reach 30-40. Why not optimize the performance? You want to make a game that everyone is happy about and has a good sense of operation. How can you play with such lousy performance

That is not a game issue, that is a laptop / hardware issue unfortunately.

I'd recommend:

1) full system wipe - reformat the drive, wipe windows, re-install drivers. This can fix so many very hard to diagnosis problems.

2) try a different (verified compatible) charger for your laptop.

Mostly because optimizing before the core features are finished can waste time if those systems end up changing significantly. I'm sure they're making ointments improvements, but I wouldn't expect a full optimization patch until around release.

I rerolled a new character a couple days ago and uh yeah, I'm not sure what's going on but the game runs like hot garbage these days. Cant even run the game properly in act 3 with not even that many mobs on the screen
If I can't find a way to fix it and we don't get some kind of performance update soon I'm going to have to skip that league

They said they did performance fixes in the Q&A. There was way too much to fit game optimization into the reveal.

They never explicitly say what they are working on concerning performance, but they always work on it.

They definitely do mention it. Usually in the Q&A and patch notes. The reveal is more for content. They should keep mentioning it if they are, because some people probably will want to play if their issues are fixed.

My best guess, they dont know how to do it.
The fact that a graphically simplistic isometric game consumes that much watts, already tells the story.

It would require to consult someone on the engine and they dont even want to hire more people for a dedicated PoE2 team. I dont buy this "1.0 will have fixed all that"-narrative.

It would be great if it were true. I really like the POE series. Both POE1 and POE2 have their own characteristics. So I hope POE2 is even better. After all, a smooth experience is more important than anything else

They rewrote part of the renderer which should improve fps, stuttering, and load times.

Mark talked about it in the Talkative Tri interview.
