Title. I always skip them and don't notice any detrimental effects at all. I used to let them run every time, but I don't want to wait 5 minutes for every patch update bug fix anymore

Pretty much. I was playing BotW on an emulator that was using Vulkan and as I ran into new areas, or new enemies appeared it would stutter as things were compiling (it also has a debug option to tell me when new shaders were being compiled so I knew that’s what it was). I eventually switched to pre-compile. It took about 10 minutes, but after that everything ran silky smooth.
