    The game is currently unplayable for me (10fps) and I can run Witcher 3, so I definitely should be able to run this. You need to do some heavy optimizations. Looking at the console, while there is a high amount of time spent on rendering, over half the frame is spent on raycasting. You have to either reduce the amount of raycasters in your game, reduce the number of objects raycast against, divide meshes into smaller chunks (default raycast loops through entire geometry, so highpoly large meshes are really bad for you) and/or use BVH to speed up raycasting https://github.com/gkjohnson/three-mesh-bvh

    There is a different raycast method, not too hard to implement and that probably will run a lot better https://github.com/gkjohnson/three-mesh-bvh
  • Raycaster is lagging/superslow on mouse move event
