Enable borderless fullscreen[2]

- By default the game uses SMAA with a temporal filter which slightly blurs the image when moving.[3]
Disable temporal filtering[1]
|

Issues fixed
Memory allocation crash
If the game crashes due to a memory allocation error even with the required 8 GB of RAM, then increasing the Windows page file to a fixed size (e.g. 8192 MB) may be necessary. See this community guide from Tom's Hardware on how to change the page file.[1]
Long loading times
The game seems to have some issue when played in exclusive fullscreen mode together with Vsync enabled, noticeable by the progress bar of the loading screen staying near the end for quite some time before eventually moving on. By either disabling Vsync or playing in windowed/borderless fullscreen mode, loading times are significantly reduced - especially when launching the game for the first time.[1]
Game crashes return to windows
Go to <Steam-folder>\userdata\<user-id>\368070\remote\savegames\ and create backup savegames folder. Launch the game and exit. Copy the backup savegames folder to <Steam-folder>\userdata\<user-id>\368070\remote\savegames\ paste and replace.
