Shadow of the Tomb Raider RTX GPUs hotfix
EIDOS Montreal and Nixxes have released a hotfix for Shadow of the Tomb Raider’s patch 4. According to the release notes, this hotfix addresses the crashes when using the NVIDIA GeForce RTX2080 or RTX2080Ti GPUs with specific driver and OS versions. These instant crashes really frustrated us and were present only when DX12 was enabled.
Moreover, this hotfix comes with a fix for visual corruption and flickering particles and waterfalls on certain GPU hardware and driver versions, as well as a fix for audio issues introduced by patch 235.3, related to the use of Windows Spatial Audio for Dolby Atmos. Steam will download this hotfix the next time you launch its client.

No, quite the opposite - Nvidia will be very concerned that even at this late stage (5wks after release), the developer (and Nvidia themselves) cannot further pair back RTX functionality to get acceptable frame rates.
Any sane individual monitoring this will most certainly not be making a (very expensive) purchase.
Message to reviewers (based purely on the insane pricing structure and the fact that we'll need the 2080Ti model as a minimum) : please include how extensive these RTX features are being implemented in each game/release. The real danger is misleading marketing where the feature is barely being used for fps reasons.
I wonder if Nvidia is holding this back to get more sales in. People won't be happy with 1080p with a Ti and sales will tank.
I want the tech to work out but I get the feeling it is too soon.

NVidia doesn't seem they want people to buy RTX cards. They're more interested in selling all that left-over Pascal stock.

All Conspiracy Theories can go both ways.
I mean Nvidia does not want to show yet how awesome RTX is and how good it works (frame and resolution wise) so people decide to buy the old 1080ti, 1080 and 1070 cards that are still in the market and that seems like a better proposition now.
Because Princing structures is right now making them look like a much better proposition than the RTX series, then when stock for 10xx cards is gone, the release for all RTX games happens and they are awesome, amazing graphics 4K 60fps with RTX and DLSS and stuff, and all those who just bought a 10xx card will spend money again for the new RTX series.
Brilliant move by Nvidia.
I hope people understand I am just making a conspiracy theory, is not my belief, my point is theories can go any way we want.

Has it not been shown that RTX performance sucks on the 20xx series? Maybe a couple generations of RTX later we will see the performance Nvidia spews. There is a nice review over at HardOCP that shows the 2080 isn't that much faster than a 1080ti. And people knock AMD. Can we just stop adding newer features and optimize what we already have. They want to sell more cards, optimize games for CF or SLI. Strange Brigade has shown it works.
