Furthermore, and given the fact that Kaldaien has explained what is mainly causing the high CPU load, Ubisoft should be able to fix this once it’s been informed about it.


So yeah, from the looks of it Denuvo is not causing any performance issues in both Origins and Odyssey. What’s also really funny here is that according to the modder, those with SSDs will experience higher CPU usage than those with HDDs. It appears that the game has a much too conservative resource ceiling for textures, meaning that the engine loads, then unloads and later reloads the same assets hundreds of thousands of times over the course of an hour. The first version of this mod is currently available for download and according to the modder, the high CPU load that PC gamers witness in both Origins and Odyssey is not caused by the Denuvo anti-tamper tech.Īs Kaldaien explained, the high CPU load is due to insane driver overhead caused by naive resource management.

Modder ‘Kaldaien’, best known for his incredible mods for NieR: Automata, Monster Hunter World, Final Fantasy XV and more, is currently working on a SpecialK mod for Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.
