You can have VRR when connecting to an external DISPLAYPORT (not hdmi) monitor. The internal panel is 60hz (or 90 on the OLED). You can adjust the refresh rate to any fixed value down to 40hz, but this doesn't happen dynamically.
With fixed frame rate you have the fundamental problem that any time the GPU takes even one clock cycle too long to finish a render, you drop to 1/2 framerate. With fixed frame rate you can't miss by just a little bit, every miss is rounded up to the next full frame.
The thing that I would keep an eye out for is if Valve ever does a refresh with a VRR panel. With VRR, you don't need to have "so much excess GPU power that it's impossible to miss a rendering deadline".
Epic hasn't gone out of their way to make life hard for Legendary/Heroic, yet. I guess that is a kind of support.
My biggest regret with Epic is buying Eastward there, and then whoops the DLC sidestory is available on every store but there. I can only read that as meaning "nobody makes money selling games, to the end user, on EGS. The only money you'll make is from selling directly to Tim Epic for a giveaway or an exclusive."
Am I going to put any more money in Epic? No. Am I going to take the freebies? Sure.
Before you do that, try replacing the EOSSDK-Win64-Shipping.dll file with an emulator (in the flavour of Goldberg).
Fun fact - Nemirtingas made exactly such a thing, but it's really hard to find a copy! I ended up finding it in "Nucleus Co-op". Get the zip, don't bother installing it, just yoink it out of the utils folder.
I can personally attest that "it hasn't cryptolockered me as of this moment", for what that's worth.
Yeah, Kaizen had a really poor showing for a demo. Making a good demo - something that shows off just the right bits of your game while teasing about more - there's an art to that.
I figure that Zach is just really bad at designing demos and the game will be fine.
Öoo, Hirogami, Under the Island, Primal Planet, Escape Simulator 2. I like my puzzles, metroidvanias, and zeldas.
Particle Hearts was one that I didn't click with, but still worth checking out just for its visual style.
I'm pretty sure that this "streamlined, gaming-first" development team will last right up to the moment they come into conflict with any other corporate goal.
You're not doing AI-first? You're not injecting Bing into every experience? Where are all the ads? Oops, so sorry, your role has been made redundant.
Standby time is 99% a function of "how much power the ram takes". If you have less ram, it takes less power to refresh.
Trackpads cost "money", and besides you already have a touchscreen.
The thing that really makes me jealous is the Freesync panel. The secret to getting a battery-powered GPU to keep up with the screen is to stop making it keep up with the screen.
When Heroic adds a game to Steam, it's actually telling Steam to run heroic with a game://gameid argument. So, any such game is already running under the "heroic environment". Running the Steam entry for the game shouldn't be much different from running Heroic and then picking the game from Heroic's list.
I think the thing you really needed was to just give the game one good run in Desktop mode. A lot of times, games use their first (successful) run to install various runtimes, and those installers need to make pop up windows (which Game Mode is not very good at). Running Heroic in Desktop mode to install the game, and doing your first run in Desktop mode is usually enough, and you can run the game just fine in Game mode after that.
Actually, I don't think anything works at Nexusmods. What a shite site.
Ah, they are just having an outage. Maybe the files will exist at some later date.
Try searching for any game, any game at all. Steam can't do it.
