Quoting: dannielloProbably it is my hardware issue, but GtkStressTesting is not showing my GPU temperature and fan speed. I cannot complain - I have nVidia GPU with their crappy proprietary driver:(

I didn't look it up, but my guess would be it relies on something like lmsensors/sensors having been run once before. Did you do that?

Quoting: EhvisAs for the refunds, we now have proof that you can get them for these special cases, even if time is exceeded by a large margin.

I guess the publisher wrote a mail to Valve to allow this. I wonder if Valve is keeping its 30% in this case.

I didn't even realise it was that beautifully seamless, I sat there like "OH! I can move!"—I felt a bit dumb and the game had barely even begun.

You make this sound like feeling dumb is what you expect from a puzzle game - and the earlier, the better! ;)

Quoting: GuestSo the safest default from a risk vs reward standpoint is probably still OpenGL. For now.

That's not necessarily what the end user might want (possibly safest), if it costs performance. At the very least, actual game developers should then expose in the settings what API to use, and default to OpenGL if they think Vulkan is still more risky.

Mind that the players are not the customers of Unity...
As a game developer, I would want it safe first, for my reputation's sake.

Quoting: buenaventuraI was a patron for a while of the devs and Im very happy with them, they focus on delivering something worthwile instead of stressing. I dont mind waiting!

I understand this for say a year between episodes (and still would wait for the full release before I buy and start playing), but four years?!?

Quoting: scaineI played Act 1 all the way through in 2013 and was vagely surprised, at the end, to discover that it was a episodic release. Sadly, I never went back to it. I suppose episodic releases only really work if you can keep up momentum and stick to a schedule. There's no point in me buying Act 2 onwards now - I've long forgotten what Act I was about!

Sounds like it would be worth it to start all over.

Quoting: Liam DaweBeing a little hyperbolic there aren't we? This isn't whining, this is Google being bad at communicating.

Just with calling it early access or beta or something, people would have been way more happy I think...

Quoting: GrimfistThe vulnerabilities itself are not that interesting, because they are a lot more theoretical than previous ones.
But the important facts is:
These vulnerabilities were discovered bei the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and the Air Force Reseach Laboratory (AFRL) of Australia. So now the military (and probably secret services) seem to have an interest in such vulnerabilities. I wonder why...

Them releasing their knowledge to the public is not the dangerous case...

Quoting: The_Aquabatthere is no reason for using Intel over AMD, in gaming I think that the top tier are even. So not sure why anyone would use intel provided pretty much everything else runs slower on their counterparts.

Not everybody changed their computer yesterday, and Intel was better for decades.
