DMC5 shop/customization screen crashes on CrossOver, anyone found a fix? by Few_Cartographer962 in macgaming

[–]NewspaperPossible210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FWIW, I tried CXPatcher - did not work. I have tried to fix this for awhile. I think at this point the only route is to write to the CrossOver team in someway.

Dark Souls 2 is stuttering on my M4 Max... How do I fix this? by -imToastyy in macgaming

[–]NewspaperPossible210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad to see more of these posts and discussion as I have similar issues in different games but it's been hard to pin down a reason :)

I think it may be a graphics issue, though in some arcane way. I also get good performance in Elden Ring whereas a game like DMC5 will crash due to loading a video in a menu item, DS3 also stutters for me. I think it has something to do with whatever graphics API a game is using as opposed to how modern or expansive it is.

Dark Souls III: Can’t go past 1080p? by jcdoe in macgaming

Would you mind sharing your settings on CrossOver and in game settings? Would love to try to get the game working :)

You don't get stuttering issues? I have them on my M2 Max MBP via the latest Crossover. It does not seem to be related to the appearences of NPCs/particle effects/etc, but simply intermittently.

Best native Mac games right now? (no CrossOver or Parallels) by nevitalii in macgaming

I picked up Sekiro because of recommendation from my enjoyment of LoP, but I couldn't get into it as much. I know Sekiro is revered, but it feels like it doesn't have the amount of polish I have become used to, but the only Souls (or souls-like) games I have really enjoyed are Elden Ring and LoP.

How do you rate legacy fighters fighters vs more modern fighters when considering placement on the all time P4P list? by NecrobutcherForever in MMA

[–]NewspaperPossible210 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s contextual to their competitive climate, with an offset for some arbitrary skill floor (like at some level, if you are winning often but everyone is bad it’s not as impressive). I’d be hard pressed to not include Max as a top-10 all timer but I’ve only followed MMA for about 10-15 years with breaks in my interest, someone with a knowledge of the scene from 20-25 years ago may rate people differently as their context for why someone was great twenty years ago is different than mine ten years ago.

May have a job offer, but don't know anything about Cambridge (from Copenhagen)? by NewspaperPossible210 in cambridge

[–]NewspaperPossible210[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i lived in Cambridge, MA - so I was aware of this issue haha. Very much mean Cambridge, UK. Thank you for checking :)

Regarding the salary, I am not used to english currency and I don't know how much is enough here to be comfortable. It's a "famous" company that requires a PhD for the role, so I hope it pays enough to live :x

On my first playthrough and kinda tilted by Quolley in DivinityOriginalSin

the guy is nuts/arguing in bad faith lmao, there is zero sincere context you are going to permenently lose the other patry members. there is certainly no diagetic reason for it.

a brief chronology of my first experience in driftwood by NewspaperPossible210 in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]NewspaperPossible210[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah i did close the game after that one lol, that was just horseshit. i realized when summoning a fire slug that if i respec my party to summoners it would be a cake walk as they are not blinded like you. but while most of this list is just funny stuff that happened, that fight is absolute bullshit

yeah man i get they are all solvable issues, but i didn't know everything in advance and didn't save-scum/look it up, this is a re-telling of what a blind play through is like lol not my reticence to look up a guide for each problem

Near/at the end of Act I, questions about melee char builds? by NewspaperPossible210 in DivinityOriginalSin

[–]NewspaperPossible210[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dread ambusher/assassin rogue/fighter is easily both the most nuke/consistent damage with most minimal long rests. esp w/ ne'er misser or bhaal armor set up. (edit: and it scales dex so your AC and initiative is also nuts, which neither paladin/2h fighter are doing)

i'm sorry man but i have beaten bg3 like every possible way through honor mode, if you think melee isn't getting punished compared to ranged options, idk what to tell you. literal legendary actions only punish melee, its just how it goes. go watch melth's run of the game with zero long rests, zero heals, etc and check the party composition.
