Seems like a wrap job. I guess you're right about them just updating to continue sales, keep the game in the news.

Unless with dx12 there's a whole lot more details on the screen, that's ridiculously bad programming.

If the CPU or PCIe bus aren't bottlenecked, DX12 and Vulkan aren't going to show much (if any) performance improvement.

Its strange that Polaris does not benefit from dx12 in this game, most other dx12 games do. Bad implementation i would say, performance is all over the place.
We can only dream developers will do a better job with dx12 like with Tomb Raider and Division 2.
