So i'm having a blast using energy weapons in my latest playthrough, especially love the Q-35 matter modulater, but something has me worried. I intend to do everything possible in this game, dlc, all acheievments, and level 50, so after all this is done i will probably have a total gametime of around 200 hours and that means ALOT of ash/goo piles in the game that are probably going to cause havoc on the games performance. So is there anyone who has played an energy weapons character for a few hundred hours and noticed any significant instability in the performance of the game caused by the excessive amount of goo/ash piles everywhere? Apparently it's a common complaint.

What do you play on?

You might experience some lagging here and there. And it will most likely freeze a few times upon entering loading screens. I have played similar playthroughs and have not experienced frame rate problems or any of that.

So, just go for it.
