In great games little problems tend to stand out. The horse animation stuttering is killing me. Its only the walking and trotting animation. I didn't notice it right away but once you see it, it can't be unseen. The game is outstanding (maybe the best I've ever played) but you almost don't want to play because of this.
My question is how does this make it though months of polishing? This bug is multi-platform and common. While testing did no one actually walk/trot with a horse?
Has anyone at RED acknowledged this specific problem or have they lumped it with general stuttering which seems different to me? I worry if it doesn't get fixed with the next patch it won't fixed at all.
Here's a video:

Actualy the game has serious frame rate issues and the stutter is the second issue. The game stutters while not use the camera too, so the stutter is everywhere. The cutscenes have insane frame rate drops, all wild hunt cutscenes suffers with frame rate. Even small places like cave suffers frame rate. I did go to Keira's house and front house she talks with peasants. In this scene the scene works 30fps till a sand mist appears with wind, the scene drops to 20fps. Seems like some effects needs to be fixed for better frame rate. Also another slow downs in Keira bath scene, this scene suffers with frame rate too, when Keira starts moving in bath watter. Well I dont know, its realy sad that game suffers with that full frame/stutter issues. I hope CDPR will fix this, I cant play this game like this. DA:I has better high detailed fields no flat textures and the game works nice in PS4 on 30fps without frame rate drop or stutter. But it has cutscene stutter issues.
And once guy commented saying: "Every single person I've asked to check if they notice the same problem, they've said yes they have. And that they just didn't notice it until someone pointed it out. It's easy to see the stuttering and just think you're getting low frames. I don't think it's rare at all."
I suspect a lot of these people simply don't move the camera slowly, or use mostly the automated camera control from moving your character. If you quick-move the camera on the PS4 version, you only get a very slight stutter at the acceleration and deceleration (when you start moving the camera and when you stop) - which is already enough to start me raging, by now - but it's a lot less noticeable unless you specifically start looking for it.
It could depend on where your eyes naturally fall. If you look off into the distance when travelling and don't track the scene as the camera turns, turn in quick jerks of the mouse/controller, it's not as noticeable.Wow, ignorance really is bliss, how some people don't notice until it's pointed out to them I'll never know. I wish I was the same sometimes.
Want some comedy relief? Check this thread out here (link below), starts at post #853, there's some people there actually trying to defend the judder when camera panning, unbelievable lol.
