I get the distinct feeling they used some of the shitty code from EQ2 as a foundation for this engine. There's no reason this game should hammer our systems like it does.
In other news, finally got all my tools and stuff crafted and started experimenting with the build tools. Loving it. Like how I can build with dirt/rock and use the paint tool for whatever surface texture I want. Just getting started but I have some ideas I can't wait to try out. I think I'm addicted.

Isn't it the ps2 engine with voxel building tools tacked on? Really not liking the art style either.
It ran WAY better for me in alpha. Since the beta client I've been stuttering and crashing on zone almost all the time.

I don't know the specifics. What I do know is companies will often re-use in house assets to save on dev time when devoloping "new" software. When I say "foundation" I am referring to code that was probably transferred over to provide certain functionality's that they needed, rather then writing new code. Because I remember EQ2 behaving very similar. My system isn't top of the line, but it's pretty fucking decent, and this game shouldn't be using 100% of my damn resources.

This is the part where I assume that you know how to use google to find out that EQN uses ForgeLight, right?Here's some breaking news about that.

I know it uses Forgelight, dumbass. I didn't bother to read up on every detail of the engine, I have better things to do. The simple fact is that Landmark has the same resource hogging problems as EQ2, and I doubt that has anything to do with Forgelight. Sure, it will be further optimized before launch and I'm certain that will help, like it helped EQ2.

Cool.
Is it the screenshot or are you claims actually tall/narrow?
I really need to watch some vids to figure out stuff not expressly told in game. haha.
From my experience with PS2 and Forgelight, it really likes running on Intel CPU and AMD GPU's. I always hear problems from people with Nvidia, and worse with AMD gpu's. No idea what that means for Forgelight on PS4.
Having things set on Ultra tend to lead to choppiness and client crashing. If not now then in future patches. Aim for medium-high.

Claims are rectangular... I believe they are like 70Wx70Lx100H? I can't remember exactly.

I am running a 660, and an i5. Nearly the same settings, except textures are lowered to high, and shadows are low, get steady 60fps. I also have my GQ set to medium, which seems to keep it from crashing as well as not taking up as many resources. Thing is, GQ changes something(s) that aren't in the advanced video options. I'd like to know what they are, and hope they get put in eventually.From my experience with PS2 and Forgelight, it really likes running on Intel CPU and AMD GPU's.
