Early impressions are the pc port is not that great of a looker compared to the ps5. I really don't like how developers are continually neglecting to include current console gen upgrades into the pc ports. I have origins, so i guess i get to play it after all.

Game is out. Fired it up and played a little. Runs well at 4K DLSS Quality with all settings maxed. Some random hitching here and there though. Running on the newest Nvidia drivers. Did run into what looks like a bug though maybe? Right when I went to go pick up the first weapon and the mini scene started the framerate absolutely tanked to a slideshow and remained that way after. For giggles I went into the settings and changed it from fullscreen to borderless. Framerate went back to normal after that. Will have to see if it happens again or not.
The game pegs the GPU at 100% with an "uncapped" framerate. My 3080 was hitting 80C. I capped the framerate to 60 in the Nvidia control panel and it's now hovering in the 80-90% range and temps are around 60C.
[edit] Game is still shitting the bed during in-game cutscenes. Drops to single digit FPS
Looks like a common problem. Will wait for them to patch it. Glad I didn't pay full price for this, lol

I haven’t checked usage, but I’m hitting 55ish c @ 4k with everything maxed and frame rate mostly around 80 fps. If I set DLSS to performance it still looks great and bumps the performance to 100ish or so.
A lot of attention to detail went into this. The environment and atmosphere are insanely good looking on OLED and plenty tense all the time. The 3d audio is fantastic.
I’m a little over 2 hours in and haven’t seen any performance issues so far, no stutters, no frame drops etc. So far it’s the most satisfying game I’ve played in a long time.
fwiw I’m running the latest drivers > 528.24

Looks like the game and/or newest drivers have some kind of weird power management bug. Was reading up on the problem over at the discussion forums on Steam (and having to wade through mountains of back-and-forth crap 
) and someone mentioned setting the power management mode for the game to "prefer maximum performance" in the Nvidia control panel. That seems to have fixed the slideshow FPS during cutscenes. The game still has all kinds of random stutter and hitching though. Hopefully they can fix all these issues.

I’d that some aren’t seeing the issues with that. I’m close to the end of chapter 3 and still no slideshows or hitching. I did see and enemy get stuck clipping into the environment, but that’s it so far. Oh, and the VRS problem, which doesn’t really bother me as much.

Feeling this game but some of the texture work and omgrafix don't seem like a 2023 era game. Lack of RTX proper is disappointing as well. Gameplay seems dumbified and I am not even feeling scared. Doesn't capture the atmosphere of the first game. I give it a 7/10 based on 45 mins I played.
No performance issues as well. Maybe only nubs have those lol.

I'm not seeing any stuttering or hitching in-game or during cutscenes. I'm on a 4080 with DLSS set to Quality and graphics set to ultra. It's been smooth so far. The game is drop dead (no pun intended) gorgeous. I hope they remake the sequels.Looks like the game and/or newest drivers have some kind of weird power management bug.

Finished it. Loved it. Felt true to the original but with enough changes to the story. Did all the side missions and most add a bit more story content but some blend the OG content with them. There are also some level design changes, like near the crew quarters. zero-g is fully 3d although you can't land on any surface like in the OG sadly. Game was pretty easy on Medium until about chapter 5 or so then it was an okay challenge but nothing hard. Took me 15 hours but I took my time (OG was 11 hours long)
Playing NG+ now and it's easier with all weapons and upgrades. The phantom necromorphs are just tougher than regular ones with pinkish skin and red eyes. Might switch to hard to add a bit more challenge. There is also a new EDF suit on NG+ that gives more armor. It's like 99k credits
There are some changes to the story. See below

Same here at 1440P, same settings, on a 2080 Ti. RTAO enabled.
There’s a good chance they’ll at least do the 2nd game. There’s a Thought you might like to know
edit: Finished this tonight. It’s my new Gold Standard for remakes.
Seems everyone seems to be hyping this game as it is best thing since sliced bread. I am on Chapter 3 and still feel it is a big letdown. It feels like a 2015-2017 era game and not really a 2023 game. Of course I will finish it but there is so little motivation. Yesterday night I wanted to play but instead ended up chatting with my friend for 1 hour and also watching Last of Us Ep 3 (which sucked horse shite btw) but didn't touch this game.
It also shows how good the OG game was, as it was released in 2008 and plays more or less the same as the remake.

2015 was the last great year in gaming so this is high praise *shrug*
For me this remake is better than 95% of games in the last 5 years. But I did love the original so might be biased.
