Also, since new page,

So, where do I go to ask questions about the performance of certain games on PC?

I'm looking at Batman: Arkham City GOTY Edition from the humble sale and was wondering how it performs before I buy.

I have an R9 390 if that matters.

A 390 will max out AC, no problem. Except for the Nvidia PhysX stuff.

Very nice. Love the wooden optic. How do you find the Nintendo Pro Controller? It looks nice but I've never laid my hands on one.

Also, Savage: Resurrection looks sweet, but there literally isn't a video on youtube about it.

I wish the AI did something, anything in that game. Last night I loaded my save and simulated nearly 100 years of gameplay and absolutely nothing happened. Pretty much the whole galaxy has been colonized, people mostly hate each other, there are alliances.. and there's been 0 wars. Nothing seems to happen unless the player instigates first. That's the problem though, I'm happy with my civilization, no desire to attack my neighbours because I'm friends with them so I guess we are all waiting for some big late game events. I wonder how many hundred years more until those start to happen.

yeah, i'm not a big fan of how little u interact with other factions, or interact in general

there's like little guidance of how well you're doing or what you need to do or what exactly ur win conditions are (i think there's a screen for that but i forgot where it was heh, which i guess is my fault but it doesn't feel super present)

and you're upgrading ur tech and researching shit and colonizing and whatever but it feels such a lonely thing and your options for diplomacy are really limited to the point that interacting with other factions doesn't seem like it's worth the while

not a big fan of the game, i think i'll stick with civ 5 :/

I don't think the D3D11 renderer received all of the post-release support it was in dire need of, but the D3D9 renderer was fine even on launch day.

Looks like Albino Lullaby is a bit in trouble.

Ep2 has been delayed from Jan 2016 to September 2016 because they don't have a way to fund it's development currently.

They're trying to push it with VR support and maybe an eventual Kickstarter. They'll be offering refunds if they can't find a way to secure it's completion.

Really unfortunate, the game reminded me of Tim Burton.

Tubes and a towel next to a PC can only mean one thing. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Why do you allow Lulu to do drugs? No wonder she looks so happy.

KRZ seems to make steady progress at least. The devs of those games probably plan that the sales of the first episodes will be able to fund the later ones. And if that doesn't happen they're screwed. It's a rather risky business plan i feel.

A chair really should be something to splurge on granted you spend a lot of time at your desk.

Any of the entry level ergo chairs would be really good.

I don't think you should worry about how games run if you have an R9 390...

That's what worries me, think about how long ago KRZ first came out =/
They must be running on fumes at this point

The game has never been cheaper than $12.50 ($8.75 going to developers), they've sold 125,000 copies (so they've made conservatively a million dollars and probably more likely closer to 1.5 million), and they've only had to employ 3 people for 4 years without an office. I suspect they're ok.
