don't know what to do about those tbh. reading other people running it better on weaker hardware makes me think there's got to be something on my end that for whatever reason is causing issues but i've got no idea what it could be. cyberpunk runs better than this lol
My machine (6th gen i7 6700HQ processor, 24GB DDR4 RAM, and a GTX 1060) runs it just fine. Now, ask me about AI Shoujo and we'll have a different story on our hands. Mine won't get above 20 FPS on that game and there are multiple people with that same issue that have stronger machines than what I listed. For reference, I can run both Doom games and both Subnautica games at full graphics just fine at a constant 40-60 FPS, which I used to get on AI Shoujo before something badly optimized got triggered to the point it lagged everything for everyone, and Honey Select 2 at the same 40-60 FPS.
From the looks of the hardware you listed, it SHOULD be running just fine like it does on mine. First things first, I would suggest checking your mods, which can be a slow and tedious process, but is likely to produce at least limited results. To do this, disable each one at a time and test the game each time one more gets disabled. This will narrow down any possible mods producing some sort of slowdown in the game that would otherwise not happen. I had to do this for the LewdCrestX mod in Koikatsu at first because any copy I used it on lagged noticeably.
There's definitely something in Honey Select 2 that doesn't agree with your setup, the key is finding out whether it's actually the game, a mod, or if it's your setup causing it because that's where the fix would need to happen. Unfortunately, if it really is the game, you're pretty much SOL, but if it's your system or a mod, the fix is much more doable, not necessarily easy or cheap if it's your system, but doable.
