Like you said, it is just a marketing tactic. Very rarely have I seen a game optimized for a specific brand run poorly on the other. Most of the time, Nvidia manages to pull off their own game-specific optimizations in a short amount of time anyway. Such optimizations may not be as in-depth, but they yield noticeable results, and that's all that matters in the end.
For the record, I know AMD also does game-specific optimizations, but they tend to be a bit later about it, often too late (where people have already made their decision based on initial benchmarks).
This is just marketing tactics but it's silly when you think about it. You can spin this another way and wonder if they won't be optimizing these games for 74.5% of Nvidia users and 10% Intel GPU users?

I'm really looking forward to this game on PC. As long as the performance difference between Nvidia and AMD isn't too significant, then, RE2 will do fine. However, if the Nvidia community feels their hardware isn't being utilised, then, Capcom can expect it to not get the sales they wanted.

"Hey people buying our game, 15% of you who happened to buy AMD graphics cards will get good optimization, and the rest of you? Well screw you!".
I wonder whats the other 0.17%... ?

It is only to make quality and competitive products.
If they are not as good as the competition
Lower the price.
I'm sure a RX580 for $ 230 would sell a lot.

Don't trust the steam survey, they have been shown to be really unreliable.

Why doesn't anyone ever ask them the obvious question when they say their game is optimized for AMD or optimized for NVidia?
"So if I'm on NVidia the game won't be as good?"
See how the hell they're gonna talk their way out of it. Again, games "journalism" my ass.

Yeah, 20% slower on RX 580 than on your GTX 1080ti AIO Cooler sounds about right.
So it'll now only run 20% slower on AMD gpu?
