I've played an hour this morning and it, yup, no DLSS support. FSR only - poor poor poor show AMD/Microsoft/Bethesda - there's no exclusive full-screen support, so if you want lower resolutions than your desktop (and you do if it's 4K), you're going to need to change the desktop resolution (poor show Bethesda). So playing with the RTX 4090 at 1440P borderless full screen at ultra preset I was getting 60 with 99% in the 40s with FSR enabled (and there is the odd bit of FSR shimmering, but generally not noticeable). I was seeing GPU usage of between 60-98% with CPU at 20-30%.
To get this running at 4K at ultra with framerates higher than 60 you're going to need DLSS 3.0, which of course this game doesn't have (well, until it's modded). It is generally a smooth experience on my rig though, with only one really noticeable half-a-second pause when going outside to the spaceport first time. There are no shader comp issues.
As for the game itself, technical performance aside. It seems more like Fallout in Space, but it follows the usual Bethesda tropes of main quest and faction quests. Gunplay is good and it does look nice, faces are massively better than previous Bethesda games, so the art style is top-notch.
I'll need to play more as an hour before work isn't enough, but so far I'd say if you like the Bethesda RPGs, you'll like this, if you have a lower spec machine though, you're not going to be playing at ultra 4K60.
More impressions once I've played some more.
