Holy hell, I booted Hard Reset Redux and my 970 fans started spinning a lot, not even Witcher 3 is so demanding.
And I played the original Hard Reset on a Radeon HD 5200, and it was ok :S

If you are using DSR check resolution maybe game pushed it to 4K.

Also this should be still valid.

.

Cap framerate? Without cap it's likely pushing 200+fps

I capped @ 60fps and GTX 970 stays at ~33% usage. (1920x1200 maxed)

Ah, it was uncapped. Is there an option in-game?
Anyway I think I won't replay it, it's still exactly the same game, also I have no katana from the start, no reason to keep going. I don't understand how melee should work in this game, anyway, considering when the dumbest mob in the game explodes near you, you get ton of damage, melee option seems like a "do you wanna die?" mode here.

Vsync in-game should work. But I use RTSS.

PC Gaming Show has added Oculus to the roster (woo hardware drm!).

Still very little that sparks my interest at the show this year, similar to last year . Relic / Sega / Paradox is pretty much it for me. Doesn't look like they could possibly add any more

For full-physics combat I just want Mount&Blade 2: Bannerlord.

Deliver us unto a new era, Taleworlds.
Tried to start playing Tales From The Borderlands the other day, found that the game doesn't save either my display settings or progress. I verified the game's cache, deleted and reinstalled, nothing worked. Realised that the game hadn't created a save game folder so I tried adding it manually but to no avail. Anyone else had this issue?
I've never encountered that issue before. Very bizarre.

Only thought: does it need adminsitrative access for some reason? The only times I've had issues with vanishing save files/progress it's been due to how restricted folders work, essentially vanishing anything that doesn't have admin access.

I don't feel nude mods anymore unless there is some ragdoll physics involved.

It's like when you watch porn.

Half-way through you suddenly start getting all these philosophical ideas in your head:

"Why am I watching porn"

"Will this minute of pleasure fulfill the void in my life"

"Isn't this time and energy well spent somewhere else"

"What is life if not sex and food"

"What is life"

Then you're too depressed to do anything, close that incognito window and go back to imgur and/or watching tv.

That only happens to me afterwards.

Usually I regret watching porn/hentai because I find nothing that can get me off. I'm really picky.

Sometimes I feel like shit and just close it. Porn really makes you think sometimes.

I just finished (or, well, at least reached the grand ending of) Root Double.

It's a really good VN, easily one of the best currently available on Steam. Anyone interested in VNs should get it! (Note: it's also huge)

Maybe - the documents folder that the save games are supposed to be stored in needs administrator access to make changes. Thought my user account had administrator access by default though. Any way I can resolve that and have the game run as an admin?

Edit: Ran Steam in Administrator mode and that solved the problem. Annoying but glad that's sorted!

Man, I hope Destroy All Humans! comes to Steam courtesy of Nordic. Yeah, the horrible stealth sucks, but the story is cool and weapons/UFO are so fun to use. Hopefully we get a sequel and they fix the problems that have held the series back.

Crypto and Pox are hilarious. Everybody always forgets about the former in best character lists.

Huge is an understatement, it took me 18 hours to 100% Route A with a guide.

Yeah, it took me 36 hours to finish everything except for the Xtend Episodes.

No guide, but I consider myself a very fast reader.
 
Root Double always makes me think of Root Beer Tapper.
Durante I wanna believe cause its you but

They prove its a video game, don't worry:
Maybe - the documents folder that the save games are supposed to be stored in needs administrator access to make changes. Thought my user account had administrator access by default though. Any way I can resolve that and have the game run as an admin?
Open Containing Folder in the game and try admin access:
Right click the game in Steam > Settings > Local Files > Browse Local Files... > right click game .exe and run as administrator

then do a quick check to see if it saves anything. If it saves things normally, the game needs admin access because of where its installed and you will need to
go to the .exe's properties > compatibility > run as admin
Depending on your settings, you may see a "____.exe requests admin access pop-up allow/deny" thing every time you run it; annoying but a small price to pay.

The thing with admin accounts, as I understand it, is that you're authorised to give admin access to programs, though that doesn't mean everything automatically has it by default. I think it's largely to stem the tide of malicious programs doing bad things to, say, critical Windows files.


Although if your documents folder needs admin access, I feel like every game using your documents folder would need admin access to work properly. So I dunno.

need pictures

someone pls produce pictures of the zkyband
Have you watched that anime Yuri Yuri? That's exactly how I depict you in my mind, so you should try something like that

Maybe the zkyband would fit kpop?


EDIT: oh god I can't believe this is the first post in the page
 
I was just told that I'm wrong for saying that a frame-rate that doesn't go above 16-18 fps is unacceptable.
Apparently if I was able to play and beat the game, it's acceptable.
I've become a performance snob without realizing it.
