I'm still on the drivers that came in the latest SteamOS (387.something) and this beta resolved my main issue which was the cutscenes would grind the game to a halt. Thank you, Feral!

Basingstoke from Puppy Games is a tense mix of stealth and action, it's out now

I've played for a couple of hours and it's really fun. The only problem I've had so far is native controller detection, otherwise it works great.

Quoting: ageres> For NVIDIA GPU users, you will need the latest 396.18 beta driver at a minimum.

I tried to install 396.18, it crashed my system, and I had to go back to 390.48. Damn Nvidia.

I'm not interested in installing beta drivers right now anyway. My system at least meets minimum specs otherwise. Guess I'll wait until the drivers become more stable to purchase the game. Hi ho.

Quoting: Mountain ManAnybody running a 32-bit OS in 2018 probably doesn't have the hardware capable of running any game released in the past few years anyway.

I have a 6-7 yo netbook as a media server which theoretically should be able to run 64-bit, but the xubuntu USB install kept locking up on boot, so I stuck to 32 rather than bother investigating. Regardless, I don't think it could decently run some 2D games from its own time even. And it's an Intel graphics chip anyway.

I used my Steam Controller to play the game (with the right pad and gyro set to the mouse) and it worked really well. I didn't have any problems with dialog selection since it changed the highlighted item with a simple up/down movement of the analog stick. There was only one time where I had problems where my character died and the menu that came up thought I was using a mouse; it was only then that I experienced odd mouse cursor movements like you were describing. The game ran smoothly on my system on high settings with no major fps problems

What have you been playing and what do you think?
