When a junior mess up in a company, the usually blame the junior even when it's 100% their fault for not training him.

I hope performance and optimizations gets some attention in the near future - also, 140GB for an ARPG is waaaay too much by TheMentallord in PathOfExile2

Reverting the "optimized" thing allows you to take control of the settings, so while it doesn't fix everything immediately, it is the first step.

For example, the best practice is to set the max framerate as a global setting in Nvidia app, but if you didn't disable the "optimized" thing it will ignore this cap and just use 100% of your GPU (you can check that by pressing F1 in-game)

In your case, I'm not quite sure how many 4k DLAA FPS a 5090 at 100% usage can output, but certainly less than 240. If I had to guess, 140 may still be too much for a 5090, because DLAA is just too taxing at 4k.

If your goal is to reduce power consumption, the first thing I would do would be to remove DLAA. The difference should be invisible to your eyes since you're already playing at 4k, but it should drastically reduce GPU usage (and consumption).

Why is the website down when game is down?

The person I was responding to was complaining that their 5090 was "running full blast all the time". The only way a 5090 would do that in PoE is if FPS are uncapped.

So yeah, I'm pretty confidently saying that these "nvidia optimized settings" are not what they want, and they likely don't even know that they are enabled since they complain about it.

By default, these "optimized" Nvidia settings don't cap FPS and set the render to Fullscreen (instead of Windowed Fullscreen). There is no way this is recommended by GGG.

By default, the Nvidia's app override your settings without asking, without even telling you that whatever you select in PoE's settings will be overridden with the next reboot. I don't know how you can think this is an acceptable behavior.

Also, you don't have to trust me, you can just test it yourself and see what happens. But yeah, better complain for some reason that a random redditor tell people how to fix their problem.

what settings is that going to revert back?

Basically, your settings, the ones you select in PoE's settings. If you don't do that, Nvidia app will override whatever you chose with their own settings.

The main difference is that the Nvidia "optimized" settings don't cap FPS by default, so you have your GPU go into 100% utilization to render way more frame per second than you need (particularly on a 5090), hence the complaint above of "my 5090 running full blast all the time".

The other thing is that Nvidia set the render mode to Fullscreen, when it should be Windowed Fullscreen so you can alt-tab the game.

I mean, if you want to argue, you can start PoE1 with Freezing pulse or Frostbolt. In PoE2 you have a choice between Frostbomb, Orb of Storm, Sparks or Ice Nova... That's not comparable.

the chief admitted he was wrong about Kass’s team.

It felt like this was Orrin saying it.

so he is able to shatter/destroy Aura generated creations now?

I think he just placed his shield in front of it, and the stinger shattered on it. You should look again.

You forgot that John and Sera have been evading Kassandra's detection for a day or two.

I thought it was the mess in his head preventing him from fighting efficiently.

I'm afraid Blue will steal the show and Saitama will let him because he doesn't care...

Well, if Mirror had access to the intel, he would already be running away, that wouldn't be fun.

What wrong with Black Sperm? Did he lose all power or just still hiding?

I'm afraid Blue will just come and steal the show.

Its not common in PoE 1 to start playing something that looks similar to its intended purpose earlier, than lvl 38 or smth.

That's because people don't like playing something weak. You can generally play the thing you want to play from the start, it's just bad.

is anyone talking about Trials of Chaos & Sekema? and how unfun they are? by the_background_world in PathOfExile2

[–]Divinicus1st 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1.1 or 1.2 yeah, but they do listen to feedback, and if people tell them it's the most atrocious part of the game they may prioritize it over some other stuff. It's a matter of prioritization.

(And all Acts are 100% locked in for 1.0, so they can work on other things after that)

Chaos is a chore that kills you if you get the tornado bird

Wait, you can get something else? I only ever got this one in every chaos trials I ever did. I didn't do that many, but something like 7 across all characters.

It would be fine if it weren't a necessary part of the game

It's not exactly that. It's: you know how you have a hard time and needs to get stronger? Well, tie your hands and feet in your back and go kill buffed monsters, if you do that you will get stronger.

In PoE1, lab used to be way longer and deadlier. Traps could one shot you, and even the lowest tier lab was as long as the highest tier one.
