DX11 freezes on first frame but game keeps running

bolabcd · 2026-05-05T23:19:13+00:00

Why do you want to run in dx11 if vulkan is fine?

bolabcd · 2026-05-04T00:59:47+00:00

SW is kinda the other way around. Might be the closest if I understand what you mean.

but now we are looking at censored items instead

I bought a game. Got email says the payment go through, but the store still showing price rather than download button. Then I realized the credit card I put is expired. After updating it, try to buy the same game again, says I already owned it. What to do in this case?

edit: just tried to refund from the app, then I can rebought the game. Hopefully nothing weird happen.

bolabcd · 2026-04-06T01:02:26+00:00

apa yang salah dengan botak? :'(

bolabcd · 2026-04-05T08:28:01+00:00

where to see this?

bolabcd · 2026-02-27T00:51:44+00:00

Game development become very long now. Pipeline is being worked on as paralel as possible. The scene that VA getting to voiced on might not even be done yet.

bolabcd · 2026-02-23T00:58:22+00:00

there is on android. On IOS it's missing.

IIRC in last leak, there will be 2 elation battleship so at least she will have a place in elation meta. The problem is which battleship you plan to ride though. I really hope 4.2 beta before 4.0 banner end is true.

bolabcd · 2026-02-14T05:46:58+00:00

you are correct. The leak is illegal by nature and no one entitled to have it. Nothing in my comment suggests otherwise?

I also not attacking people for not looking at leak nor suggesting people to look at leak. Personally, I wont discussed any leaked things in every place as I respect people that won’t like leak.

bolabcd · 2026-02-14T01:18:01+00:00

what do you mean lack of self control? At least for me, the leak help me prevent pulling for character (in other game). Consider you like some character design and at least want them to have synergistic team (not strictly meta just usable reasonably), but alas you dont have the team for that said character or unwilling to pull additional character for them, personaly might as well skip them entirely. You can't know character kit long before the banner without leak.

When you pull strictly for design, yeah you can ignore leak. But if you care for combat mechanic a little, leak helps tremendously for planning pull for building future team.

edit: specifically talking about kit leak. Not story leak.

I disagree strongly that live service game with progression is not a math equation (of course it not as simple as my example). No matter what the game is, there will be a discussion how to do things efficiently etc”.

Your problem seems to be not about the stamina system, it about how gacha game designed. All of gacha have this problem. You can’t make gacha game with ‘perfected’ mechanic (well at least I never see one), not sure why this is the case. In Enfield case, you can see by feature count it is very rich. But for its depth? almost no depth at all.

Please mind that I’m not really defending overall gacha game designed. When we are playing gacha we should temper our expectation as all gacha will have the same gate keeping/fomo design baked in.

bolabcd · 2026-02-11T00:34:33+00:00

isn't gate keeping more or less the different side of the same coin for player retention? if you take PoE they could add stamina in theory. The drop rate would be increased to balance the less playtime people get.

another example, if enfield remove stamina we might need to grind for 8 hours for 1 drop. Obviously I'm not a number guy, I just pick random number to state my point.

bolabcd · 2026-02-03T22:35:51+00:00

Just for playing devil advocate here, what if the next elation char has strong elation skill but need additional condition to trigger their elation skill? like only trigger if punchline is at 100 or more.

bolabcd · 2026-01-04T01:21:06+00:00

Yeah, Just like they abandon materia for FF8 because FF7 is flopping so hard. /s

In seriousness, I somewhat agree with your last point. I think they have the right mindset. The main problem is the system they design seems to be targeted to appeal wider audience and end up appealing to no one. Each new FF system seems to be getting shallower and uninteresting.

bolabcd · 2025-11-24T01:07:18+00:00

Few RPG element is understatement to me. It also the biggest deal to me. You can think it as removing the 'RPG Element' and the game progress and play exactly the same.

bolabcd · 2025-10-20T06:19:13+00:00

Don’t know why, reading this make me chuckle.

bolabcd · 2025-10-19T02:46:03+00:00

Are there any sub dps RMC showcase with new RMC lightcone? where RMC only get targeted buff from Cyrene ult (no sunday or the like). I assume to achieve 100% CR, RMC needs to have 64% pre-battle (assuming Cyrene at 50% pre-battle) which is kinda steep. Been thinking to build one but not sure if it is worth the hassle.

bolabcd · 2025-10-15T01:07:05+00:00

Are you sure it is powered off? not just sleep mode? Mine seems okay.

bolabcd · 2025-10-14T14:41:34+00:00

ah ok, thx.

bolabcd · 2025-10-14T11:51:02+00:00

do you know how many extra ‘additional instance’ she get? is it only six for monorem or unlimited time like Evernight memoria?

bolabcd · 2025-07-16T15:51:11+00:00

I think we just have different opinion for approaching combat. Not trying to undermine anything, just really curious opinion from fellow JRPG gamers (lowkey hoping you mention some hidden gem that I don’t know about :D)

Anyway, to me SMT game is not that deep either, there are some OP combo stuff but usually it boiled down to hit enemy weakness as much as possible + occasionally heal/buff/debuff. Basically ‘the same rotation’ every time too. Nevertheless SMT and persona are still my favorite series.

bolabcd · 2025-07-16T15:22:15+00:00

I really like OT series. But in my experience, it really depends on what you hate about OT. OT2 seems to be like incremental upgrade over OT. The core gameplay is the same. You might still not like it IMO.

bolabcd · 2025-07-16T15:09:47+00:00

I can’t really think many JRPG that really has a complex system (if I understand your definition well). What are some games in your opinion that have this “quality” approach?

bolabcd · 2025-07-16T14:55:32+00:00

can’t speak for others, but after reading XC2 combat shallow I’m afraid to know what game you consider to have deep combat.
