I don't remember experiencing something like that in the game when I played it some time ago.

I've made it to the
Yeti
and it stutters during specific attacks. Like frames are dropped or something.

Booted up DMC4 and it worked fine, so it's not a universal thing.

An otome game (乙女ゲーム otome gēmu?, literally "girl game") is a story based video game that is targeted towards the female market. Generally one of the goals, besides the main plot goal, is to develop a romantic relationship between the female player character and one of several male, or occasionally female characters.


I was looking for a good gif of the classic the more you know psa, but this seemed to fit better in this thread.

Glad I got in on that DMC4SE deal on Nuuvem. Either theyre getting rid of stuff or redesigning. Regardless only Capcom titles at least on mobile are now REmake and Revelations 2.

Do not wan....



...hm

Well, I'm a straight male, and otome games appeal to me. The protagonists usually are attractive though, so maybe that's part of it. I may not be in the target demographic, but I still have an interest, unlike the other VN genre targeted at girls...

That's interesting. Can you recommend a otome VN that I should check out? Easily available if possible. Never had contact with it before.

And what is the other VN genre...? Do I want to know?
 
if you have a laptop with an integrated and mobile GPU then you might need to shut off the integrated chip. Laptops that have the two different chipsets can have issues with certain games.

I hear Hakuoki: Demon of the Fleeting Blossom is really good. Haven't tried it myself though.

On the Steam store, I'd go with Blue Rose. I played that one and I actually liked it a lot.


Both of those are safe.

I've never played one myself, so I'm not the best to ask. Hatoful Boyfriend actually is an otome game.

As for the other genre. BL (Boys' Love) or yaoi. So basically pretty boys dating other pretty boys. Targeted towards girls, just as yuri (girlXgirl) games are targeted towards males. Not targeted towards gay males though--there's another genre for them--Bara. Yeah not interested. I've seen some games that had interesting sounding stories, but then was disappointed when I found out they were BL games. Not that there's anything wrong with BL games, they're just not for me. No sense forcing myself through a game with content that doesn't appeal to me, regardless of how good the story. No BL on Steam though, as most are 18+.

I somehow own Blue Rose already and Hakuoki is cheap, so I'll take note of these. Thanks!

if you have a laptop with an integrated and mobile GPU then you might need to shut off the integrated chip. Laptops that have the two different chipsets can have issues with certain games.

you can't shut down the intel card
but you can force the game to run on nvidia card , and that what i did
running the game on intel card will make the game run like a slow motion
its like when you turn on the slow motion on max payne , but its ON all the time
 
A nice gaffer offered up a free nvidia key so I was actually excited to play an Arkham game without having to wait a year or so for it to become reasonably priced.

So yeah, i'm still really grateful for the key but boy what a bummer

eh, i admit that i'm pretty ignorant on that stuff. I have an older laptop with a 555m in it but i never had issues as it was the only card on the machine. Just remember reading that laptops with integrated chips and a mobile GPU would sometimes have issues as some games would ignore the mobile GPU and use the integrated chip instead.

I dunno, maybe there's a driver update you can look for?
 
wingamestore doesn't even have Geometry Wars 3 listed on their site anymore. Mustve sold pretty well for them to have it completely wiped off the entirety of their website.
 
I don't know if it has started a meme but that one is gone but there is a 3.02 on the leaderboards. Donation: $25.

Yep, it's entirely possible, but to be fair it's pretty easy to miss. $25 is the default value, and that's enough to be in the leaderboard - which presents you with a form for your name, and this could easily be confused with Custom Amount.
 

This game is really good and has amazing music

Can't wait for a bundle that has it~

EDIT: The trailer seems to have remixed music, I hope the original OST is included...
EDIT2: Looks like it doesn't, at least I can't find anything. Hard to recommend without the original music honestly
 
I cant. Thats why i keep playing it, despite its issues. I've finished worse stuff, like drakengard 3.
I tried going back to it the other day to finish some challenges(did almost everything else, including the last bullshit ending) and good god it really does still run at around 10 FPS with drops to literally 0. What a technical abomination.
