There are many unnecessary things in the default graphics settings in Ark Survival Ascended that put a lot of strain on your computer and cause your FPS to drop. These settings can also make your game look clunky.
For example, the Light Bloom setting adds an unnecessary fog in front of you in the game, which not only decreases the performance of the game but also makes you unable to see clearly ahead.
