Appears playable but with flickering objects throughout. Played through the intro sequence up to when you first make it to the netherworld. The map screen flickers sometimes, and the main character flickers. This only happens with Vulkan, not OpenGL, although OpenGL is much slower.

Runs without any issues at 30fps native resolution, didn't spotted any graphical or sound glitches either. Developers team thank you very very much.

Runs without any problems except a lot of stuttering when loading shaders. The problem i am facing its that after closing the game, and booting it up again, it starts compiling shaders again but without "too" much stuttering.
30FPS stable anyway, tried the 60FPS patch and it gets up to 55 FPS on average going down to 40 in some more populated areas, the "other" emu doesnt have this issue but it has got a lot of graphical glitches so i prefer Ryujinx anyway.

Game State
Updating emulator build to 1.1.1337 completely eliminated the heavy stuttering and long loading times, that would always occur on first boot or first entering a new area and would usually smooth out after first encountering them with only occasional bouts of stuttering afterwards and the rare crash or freeze when quickly switching between in-game and sub-menus (e.g. via leyline font services). Still managed to play the game until halfway into the second Netherworld area, but the stuttering on first boot did become worse further into the game, lasting longer and being more frequent.

Post-update performance is so smooth that it almost seems like black magic. Using graphic upgrade mods to test this new level of performance (increased LOD, etc.) gives a very playable FPS across the board without bouts of stuttering.

Already reported visual bugs, like some characters occasionally flashing during cutscenes or some surfaces flickering in the World of Shadows, are still there, but do not detract from gameplay in the slightest.

Literally has nothing to do with the latest update of the emu. Its just shaders being made, its always gonna be like that.

I think you're misunderstanding me because I didn't explain it with the right terminology ("first boot" is probably wrong; I meant every time the game is booted up and loads into the game proper), but to confirm my case I downgraded back to version 1.1.1336 and all described issues were back. Went back to 1.1.1337, issues gone again. Loading times were especially noticeable: from approx. a minute and a half to load my savegame, to barely eleven seconds. Since no other variables changed, I can only think of the emulator's update being the reason why.

Yeah its not the update, seems like W11 is doing stuff differently than W10 is.

I upgraded and im still getting the same stutters at first boot (after loading the game) even after compiling shaders. i dont know why this is, doesnt happen with the other emu.

Deleting your save data for the game seems to make it start working.

Game State:

Game runs mostly stable at 30fps, only stutters when loading new textures, but that's to be expected. The only issue so far is that the game freezes, then crashes when entering Cadaver's Hollow sometimes for some reason. This only happens specifically when entering Cadaver's Hollow after playing for 30 mins to 1 hour. I also sometimes pause the emulation when I take a smoke break then un-pause when I get back, I'm not sure if that has anything to do with it but there's that.
