So guys. I'm the dude that kept being butthurt and complaining about my performance in AC (big maps like SRP and LAC specifically) and DR2 with a G2 and a 5800x/6900xt. For AC I had to run at 60hz, 80% SS, and AMD FSR on balanced and I'd still get some frame drops. For DR2 I ran 80% SS, medium settings, quality FSR, with frame drops. Now I'm bypassing Steam VR, and running OpenComposite (OpenXR) + the OpenXR toolkit. Both games at 100% SS, which makes them look way better, FSR for AC at ultra (in CM, which I don't know if it works if you use OpenXR, since that's where you turn FSR on when using opencomposite), no FSR for DR2, and settings at high. Both games run at 60 fps, while looking way better, and I haven't noticed frame drops yet. You lose the convenience of Steam VR features like fpsVR, the menu that lets you reset view, and some other things, but fuck that. This is literally a game changer. DR2 no longer looks like a piss stain. If I play with the settings I can probably run at 90hz too. I haven't tried recording gameplay yet, but it probably works somehow.

I think this should be in the OP. Like I can't believe how much of a performance goblin Steam VR is. You just need these two hoes below and it's super easy to install and switch back if you want to.
