Heavely depends on your actual hardware - and even then not in one sitting as the game is so twitchy it still crashes all the damn time
60FPS is a bonus on consoles, but had been the standard on PC since te 80's. There's a reason why there is a group calling themselves Framerate Police on Steam which notes every single game which doesn't have 60FPS as a possibility (independent on your hardware power, meaning a hard limit set by the publisher/developer) right out of the box.
But 60FPS ain't the real problem at this port, the problem being the massive framerate drops which happen all the time. And these go all the way down to less than 5FPS even on highest-end hardware, turning the game basically into a diashow and rendering it unplayable when these happen. The latest patches have made them a bit less severe (meaning down to <10FPS instead of <5), but at the same time max FPS of many cards have dropped at the same time, especially mid-range ones which didn't have many frames to begin with.
The devs even admitted the code is broken beyond repair, but still Activision (who must have known it!) pushed the game into sale despite all these problems. Like Jim says it's a special mention: The game itself doesn't warrant a place on the list (though it's easely the worst of the series), but the shady practices by Activision needed to be noted and "honored"

Well the very last thing you got wrong was Activision publishing Arkham Knight when it was Warner Bros ...
Last I checnked, large framerate dips are due to lower amount of video memory, not because of bugs ...
Just get more powerful hardware to solve the problem ...

He pointed out that powerful HW doesn't solve the problem, in fact it doesn't always solve such problems at all, I've seen a few gamers on YT who do benchmarks with different sorts of high end that still don't get the stable frames on AK.
See Shadow of Mordor works fine on my 980 and other folks hardware that stems from 780-980 ti's, AK just runs like trash on most builds and still does.
So far this year on my 980 the games I've played ran fine with me in terms of AAA:
Witcher 3
Dying Light
Shadow of Mordor
Star Wars Battlefront
The difference here is that those games listed above were all well recieved good ports and none of them pulled a WB on their games, not even for SoM.
Mankind, in its arrogance and self-delusion, must believe they are the mirrors to God in both their image and their power. If something shatters that mirror, then it must be totally destroyed.
