    I am playing with a Rtx 2060 Super in 4k Dlss Performance + Max graphics settings and framerate is good. I haven't experienced any stuttering so far. No bugs and no issues at all. Graphics quality of this remake is excellent, it's incredible the work they did with this remake. Gameplay and story are very good. I'm enjoying this game so far, excellent remake Sony thank you!

    I liked this game. The story is very good. The dialogues are very powerful. The gameplay is good but it is little bit old. I expected to add more mechanics but it is like the old one.The optimization is horrible. Graphics are meh. This game has a lot of walking. After the first half, you feels like you are in the walking simulator. But in the summary, this game is good for the other games.I liked this game. The story is very good.

    As of patch 1.1 the game is running great on max settings 1080p ultra with a 8gb vid card. Sadly they had a bad launch, I got the game from buying an AMD card and I started playing on the 1.1 version of the game. Shaders are a pain but it only takes 13 mins.

    I refunded when I first bought a few months ago. I bought again a couple days back and so far it plays fine, the June patch seems to have worked great. Shader cache didn't take as long as I thought it would. Graphics are beautiful and it plays smoothly on my system, only jitters during loading screens or sections which is normal.

    what you must do is lowering the following settings,
    - wait for shaders cashing to finish
    - shadows resolution
    - lower reflections resolution-
    - turn off real time reflections
    - use DLSS mode
    - your VRAM must have free space don’t fill it up with high settings
    - lower the texture but don’t ruin your visuals
    I will give it 8 out of 10 expecting to get performance patch soon.    … Expand

    This game had one of the worst PC releases of all time, but after months and countless of patches, it actually works well now. It's a shame that they released this game like that, but overall it is very good game and solid remake. It doesn't add anything new (some minor things), but it's just overall best version of this game and now on PC. It's great!

    As I main an xbox I had to play this on my PC and I have to say, I did not experience any of the bugs but I did experience some lags here and there but the when I finished it the game, best experience I have ever had. Maybe I will buy a PS5 and play it on there as well to see the difference Need more games like this..

    Don't trust the bad reviews. This game is a masterpiece. I didn't have a single problem with graphics and optimization. I'm playing with a Rtx 3060, Ryzen 5950x, 16GB Ram at 1440p Max settings. Naughty Dog did a superb remake and port to PC

    Honestly, after reading many negative reviews on Steam I was afraid to try this Pc port. But I had to change my mind soon as I had a very positive experience playing it. I didn't notice any crash, game is smooth and very playable. Actually, a very good port. Maybe, I was just lucky?

    I'm glad to see Sony is porting very good games to Pc and The Last of Us makes no exception. My Gtx 1070ti is able to run it FHD with a mix of med - max settings around 30-35 fps. No stutters at all. And they did an awesome remake, graphics quality is very high!

    I didn't have any crashes so far nor stuttering. I don't understand what other players are complaining about. My 8GB Vram Rtx 2080 is perfectly capable of running this game with most settings maxed out plus some ultra settings indeed. Graphics engine is demanding but the game is playable and stable. Gamplay is stellar and narration too. A must play for everyone. Sony you're number 1

    Fantastic game in every aspect except some launch-day snags, already fixed. Should force users to wait for the shader compilation which would have avoid the review bombing from people who can't read.

    Excellent HDR support, impressive quantity of graphics settings (you will lose yourself, they're so many and there's high granularity), tons of options, very good controls. I'm enjoying it more than I did with Uncharted pc port which also was very good. Story is so good, settings are wonderfully reproduced. I have nothing more to add. Simply one of the best PC games of 2k23 so far

    Actually better than most remakes I've played recently. I have really appreciated they made the game playable even with CPUs which don't support avx2 instructions, so I didn't have any troubles running it with my i7 3930k. I'm playing it at medium settings with a Gtx 1060 and it's smooth, didn't have any crashes. Only problem was long shaders compiling at the very beginning of the game.Actually better than most remakes I've played recently.

    I love the difficulty settings you can now customize it. You can make the enemy AI smart and aggressive, without turning your allies' AI completely dumb and useless. You can also have those settings without making it impossible to find items. People keep complaining about crashing I played the entire game without a crash. I did noticed bugs once I started playing Left Behind, the items you would collect would just randomly not be collected.    … Expand

    Greatest game of all time, performance could be bette, patch coming today. - no real issues with a 3900x and 10gb 3080 - 4k medium 80-110fps.
    All the screaming and moaning online will put developers off bringing amazing games like this to PC.
    still it gets clicks and views and thats all that matters right?

    Yes, The Last of Us Part I for the PC has somewhat improved a little under two months in. Graphical stutters, framedrops, and other visual artifacts currently exist. If you’re able to look past those graphical shortcomings, The Last of Us Part I is a truly exceptional game. Consider waiting just a bit more before jumping into one of the best series from Sony and Naughty Dog to date.

    The remake of one of the most iconic games of all time finally got its PC version. Unfortunately, it is plagued with bugs and glitches, and the optimization is extremely poor. If you are not in a rush, wait for a more substantial update that will hopefully solve most of these problems. In the meantime, give it a try on the PlayStation 5 if you have the chance.

    It’s nice to be able to experience Joel and Ellie’s story on the PC. But it’s not the best way to go about things and a game as brilliant as this deserved better from its port. The crown jewel of three generations of PlayStation should’ve arrived in a much better state.
