Phantom Blade Zero: Terrible stuttering after the patch (Fix)

The problem

The game worked fine after the initial shader compilation, but on subsequent launches without compiling the game performance is awful

What players suggest

I had the same problem with an i5 12400f+RTX 5060TI. My rock solid 60 fps went down to 50. I played without Ray Tracing before, I adjusted some settings and turned RT on. Then I restarted my game to force it to finish the RT shader compilation as well. Then I switched back to my previous settings without RT and I got my fps back. Worth a try.
