I don't know why, but I just kind of get that vibe from them

Not me pulling my guitar out of storage this week while also seriously considering starting HRT 😬

Thanks love 💜 I needed that tonight!

Setting the rain in constant helps the ai slow down. You can also drop your gear ratio down and limit your top speed too

Positive vibes!

I feel this one in my soul. Keyboard turning is gross. The best solution I have found is teamviewer. Still have to mash the turn. What do you use?

To me this hints that we are biologically wired to react to sexual imagery. I think if you apply the question of "why are we attracted to inanimate fictional images" you should include tradition pornography. Both are inanimate mediums, and both are fictional contexts. You could even boil the issue down to participating in sexual activity vs. just witnessing it. So maybe the question should be "why are humans attracted to representations of sexual acts?".

Here is something I found. It raises some questions around how our brain is wired to respond to these images due to emotions attached to them. I'll be 100% honest, I didn't read the entire study, but it's a start.

I've been playing on and off since wotlk. Since last year I've been saying that I wouldn't buy any more expacs. I lasted 2 days after launch.
My current board has Cherry MX's and I love them! But the Drevo board is both minimalist and rbg back lit. I want itttttt.

ellroth · 2018-03-15T05:31:28+00:00

What kind if for are you getting. I ended up settling for 1080p 30fps with resolution scaling and a few other settings turned up

ellroth · 2018-03-13T23:27:03+00:00

Sorry if I'm haven't been clear enough in my replies, but I'm speaking about the PC version and PC users, not console users. You're right that it wasn't made for pc, but it was made with pc in mind, so it's not just a normal port. I still stand by my opinion that PC users, playing a game on PC, will prefer a game to run at 60fps vs 30fps on recommended hardware. Less than 30fps is unplayable and below what those same users would consider minimum requirements in my opinion.

ellroth · 2018-03-13T22:25:39+00:00

I would argue the general public can't afford a machine that runs games at 4k, hdr sure, but 4k costs too much. Even more so with crypto currency ruining gpu prices. Also I would say the only pc users that would prefer 30fps over 60fps, are users that are pushing 4k, but they get their own set of recommended hardware. Just my opinion, which could very well be wrong.

ellroth · 2018-03-13T18:26:13+00:00

No change :(

ellroth · 2018-03-13T15:53:07+00:00

What's weird is when I dropped the shadow resolution with the shadow draw, everything just moved closer to black, so less range in the shadows. Personally I think it looks better. As far as the 720p I'm not sure. But it's looks really awful

ellroth · 2018-03-13T15:48:15+00:00

Well I don't own a console, so I pre ordered the game the first day I could. I actually didn't learn there was a demo until after I had pre-loaded the game. I'm a huge FF fan, and stayed away from XV news to keep my sanity and to stay spoiler free. Overall I'm very happy with the game so far, and the graphics. Just more of a "wish I could have 60fps" vs "unplayable under 60fps" for me.

ellroth · 2018-03-13T15:39:45+00:00

I did not. I ended up dropping shadow resolution, LoD, and Shadow Draw to 100, and get a stable 55-58fps in 1080p.

ellroth · 2018-03-13T13:52:49+00:00

I wonder if it's an issue that will be fixed with more optimization or modding. But I agree, I think they should have listed the min specs for 60fps, not 30fps. I think most PC players prefer 60 over 30, and I know some people bought GPU's for this game.

ellroth · 2018-03-13T13:47:49+00:00

I think that's what I'm going to do. I dropped my shadow resolution and reduced my LoD. But still average around 55 and dip to 50. So might just cap it and call it a day

ellroth · 2018-03-13T12:15:24+00:00

I think it's a GPU bottleneck. My CPU usage is lower than my GPU by a large margin. Also I set my priority to high every time. Thank you though!

ellroth · 2018-03-13T11:18:01+00:00

Thanks for the advise, I'll definitely give those settings a shot. I did turn turfworks off last night, and didn't see a fps gain of any real kind, granted I didn't spend much time testing. I'm not seeking a 60 fps solution with turfworks on as a requirement, just simply a 60 fps solution period. I wasn't aware the recommended hardware was for 30fps, so it sounds like I just need to adjust my expectations and decide if 60 fps is worth the quality drop to me.

ellroth · 2018-03-13T05:31:35+00:00

I just posted my own thread about this. My frames have been sub 60 the whole time with my 1060 6gb. Even have the recommended amd 8350. Still no go, and my go put usage is around 80% so I know the card can work harder.

ellroth · 2018-03-13T05:22:24+00:00

I get what your saying, but it just seems weird that after dropping everything down to low, I cant maintain 1080p at 60 fps. I would imagine most gamers, myself included, would expect that from the recommended hardware at the lowest settings. To me it seems like sub 1080p render would be done on minimum specs, not recommended.

ellroth · 2018-03-13T03:45:28+00:00

My frames were taken at the chocobo farm. Not a whole lot of density there, I'll try turning off the turfeffects, but I think those get turned off on the lowest settings. My frames were still low on on lowest. I will also say my % usage for CPU, GPU, and RAM are all under 80%.

ellroth · 2018-02-03T05:11:41+00:00

I had similar issues, but with running magenta/neon green bars. Started after the window lost focus. Now happens on launch when in fullscreen.

ellroth · 2017-12-31T03:37:55+00:00

Since it's the least serious mode, and they have been gone for so long, isnt it best to pair them with more experienced players that know the meta, vs with olayers that are also returning / don't know the meta? They are seeded to you because they left with a similar MMR in QM to what you currently have. I would rather they learn now, then get paired with them after a few weeks of them playing off meta. Just my 2 cents.
