Is it fun to play now? i got some questions too :
1. How about the RNG now? is it really the same as back then?
2. How about the Bosses?
3. And why is it so much stuttering now after the update??

Here is your clown award. Please ignore this game next year. GLHF.
1. They've made the grind much less bad, there are ways to more easily get the drops you want. There's also no need to do outposts anymore. Don't need to farm for those weird shards to open some of the AMs. There is more diversity in what you can farm so it doesn't old really quickly.
2. I don't really know what you're asking here.
3. I'm not getting stutters so I don't know.

1. You can get everything in no time, way too quick&easy.
2. Bosses are dying after one shot, way too easy. Thanks to all those QQ, oh I can't one shot that boss please nerf this and that. Shame.
3. Check your software&hardware.

1 - Some of the RNG is improved and if you read event details, you can exploit them to get around certain isuues plus a few changes seem to have been made I never saw in any patch notes when I played

2 - Depends on which Bosses you mean, there are 2-4 types that can count as Bosses

3 - Stuttering has been there before recent update
I have seen posts from people complaining even when having equipment meeting spec
Me, I started after I got a new PC that exceeds minimum spec, had no problems for a couple of months then started noticing stuttering usually in Albion during afternoon times Eastern Standard Time zone one of the reasons I left

RNG has improved tons. We now have advanced stabilizers which flip the probabilities (6% becomes 32%, 32% becomes 6%). Since then I have rarely needed to crack an AM more then 4 times.

Only "Hard" boss8es) atm are/is the Void Abyss Colossus (Ice Maiden atm) and they are easy enough to kill using the mechanics (Ice Maiden is break the weak points and then unleash everything)

Performance has improved a lot over the last year. Stuttering issues are probably on your end (HDD install might be the reason)

Yeah i forgot it installed in the HDD lmao, so i changed it so SSD and worked magnifique
i dont know which one is worse
1 the guy that asks random strangers about RNG, having no clue there are OTHER games with 0.0001% drop rate (TFD has nowhere near that bad rng)
or
2 the guy that says here your clown award (aka you are a clown)
and ignore the game glhf (aka go away, you bother me)

all game forums same story..

All my performace issues turned out to be from AMD settings.

I went to graphics options and turned "Additional options" to off and turned fsr frame generation off and no more stutters and freezing.

I have an amd rx 6950 xt with 32gb of ddr4 ram and the game running on an m.2 that is fast so I was always perplexed as to why the game ran like ish. turned out I had to disable the amd settings meant to boost performance.

1. No, it's a lot better. There's items now that tweak the drop chances and are easy enough to buy in the ETA-0 shop if you grind steadily (can also be crafted) and we now have a pity system - go to your Journal, find the target you want to drop from a certain mission and hold G to target it (doesn't work on everything, only chance rewards that hard-drop) - now if you press U while playing, it should bring that item up with a percentage bar - each time you 100% that bar, the item force drops. Easy peasy.

Keep in mind this is different than keeping an eye on the amount of items you've got of one type, you enable that by merely pressing U on the item you want. Find those that allow you to hold G, then you'll be using the correct function.

2. They got nerfed like 2-3 times while we got 2-3 times stronger descendants. Normal and Hard bosses? You can do 2-5 second runs. Ice maiden, with your very first proper Serena Build I'd say around 1min 30sec and if you want you can also crit fish for the leaderboard (the first 100 spots have times between 3 and 5.5 seconds).

Challenge Ice Maiden is a proper fight, not exactly hard but has a *ton* of HP to take down. So we still have a challenging boss if that's what you crave.

3. No idea, might be on your end. They did add an update for the DLSS for new gen stuff, maybe reset your graphical settings and re-set them to what you like, could help. Maybe your components need a check up/cleaning or an upgrade. Things can stutter while overheating.

You didn't even ask but now we have dogs that dismantle stuff according to our settings and pick up items for us and they cannot be harmed, so no need to watch out for them. One heals you on repeat and the other replenishes your ammo.

The game is in a sense in a better place than ever. Definitely give it a proper try.
