Why is Bonelab Lagging?? Is This Normal??

so i just got Bonelab cuz everyone said it’s peak VR or whatever, but it’s lagging so bad it’s unplayable. like, i’ll turn my head, and the game is still rendering the title screen 💀💀. thought it was my settings, but then i realized my PC might be struggling a lil bit.

for specs, i’m running:

  • Intel Core i3-4130 (yes, that’s 4th gen, don’t roast me 😭)
  • 4GB RAM (DDR3, she’s ancient but still kicking… barely)
  • NVIDIA GT 710 (absolute BEAST for running Solitaire at 30fps)
  • 500GB HDD (not SSD, we keep it vintage)

bro, is Bonelab just not optimized or is my rig actually cooked? 😭😭 do i NEED to upgrade or is there some setting to make it work for potato PCs? pls don’t tell me to get a new PC, i’m broke rn ong. help me out, i just wanna vibe in VR without it looking like a PowerPoint presentation. 😭
