PC bros are the best audience if your game is actually worth it
This game having denuvo would be a disaster piece truly, since a shit ton of users who bought the game, have to crack it to even get to function at a reasonable framerate, meaning the way the leaderboard and steam API function is essentially broken. A bought game, needing a crack to function and this is the second platinum port within a month. Two whammies in a row isn't a good sign of competency so why the fuck you wanna layer it.
This is what piratefags believe!
>pirating something that cost 20 bucks
yeah if you are a slum urchin
also had to use steam to remap the controls a bit, lock on on RB is stupid
>He hasn't seen the 500 fucking threads about how offline mode and outright cracking the game fixes frame drops.
What's even more sad is they attempted a fix, botched it, and now remain unresponsive to every email and tweet. Sega everyone. What a sad world to live in still that we have to crack a BOUGHT copy of the game to get it work. I'm enjoying the game, but hate that I have to botch my fucking achievements to even play it. Do you think Sega is actually going to fix this or say fuck it entirely.
>a shit ton of users
what users? it got an immense amount of positive reviews on steam and even going through the negative reviews I don't see anyone claiming this, the only place I heard this of was Sup Forums
>outright cracking the game fixes frame drops
>believing piratefag apologist lies
>20 eurobucks
>glorious HD
>supposedly a good port
>Sega everyone
If people here weren't literally 14 years olds they'd remember the whole Rome 2 fiasco, the only way to fix that piece of shit was to buy Attila or Age of Charlemagne.
Base game is still shit.
Not to mention how they cut Warhammer TW in little pieces to be sold separately because fuck selling complete games, it's 2017!
>keeps shitposting rather then addressing the issue with the API file
Sega shill is that you.
Please answer if you're going to fix this issue with the leaderboard and api file from causing frame drops.
i3/750ti here, 60fps at max settings. It got iffy when I tried downscaling from 3200x1800, but native 1080p is no problem.
>over 400 post
steamcommunity.com
And this isn't the only thread, and none of the threads have been pinned as bug issues. Numerous people reporting increased frames in offline mode and outright the crack fixing the issue all together which points directly to the way the leaderboard and steam API.

Steam API issue.
I am not just Sega shill, and shill others too. Actually, I am the messiah that will purge the piratefags and save video game industry.
>beat MGR on hard
>Can't use the moon of mashamalamadingdong to save my life
Kill me
MGR is the weakest line of technical skill in any platinum game though.
Bayonetta being slightly above it in action grasp terms, because it uses dodge offset, but still loads of QTE.
so from the Holy Trinity only NGB still isn't on PC
Godhand emulates well since forever
Sadly original Xbox emulator is years behind, because of shitty decisions. There is only one active developer on it and he's focusing entirely on getting pretty much Jet Set Radio Future working, because Sega Never.
Why is this allowed
>inb4 that custom PC picture
That incident is nothing compared to what nature took from us. Most of the alpha and developer kits were apparently lost in an earthquake tsunami.
But why now?
Why not 20 years ago?
God fucking damn I love Ninja Gaiden. Black, 2 and Razors Edge are so much fucking fun to play.
It is one of the only games that truly captures the "badass ninja" feeling. Slicing and dicing up niggas left and right and doing super moves and having good combos and fun weapons. Fuck. So good. I would easily pay for a PC remaster/port of Black, 2 and Razors Edge is a bundle.
>as soon as the prologue mission ends, usage starts to fluctuate between 8-11%
>I have also tested it on a different computer. It has a better CPU (i7 gen 4 vs i5 gen 2), so the CPU usage went up to only about 2.5% tops and the game seemed to work fine
I mean this ain't good and it should be fixed, but this is not a immense increase and something that affects a very small percentage of users with weaker rigs
>holy trinity
>meme hand
>bayonetta
Just let them get run over by some cars.
My issue is that I tried everything else in solutions, and applying the crack was the only thing to actually work. This is what bites me in the ass, is that you have to crack a 7 year old game that you buy on Steam fucking up your achievements, because of one shitty issue they have yet to pin down and are now ignoring entirely. My PC is more than enough for this game to run in fucking higher than 1080p. It might have to do with connection type also, as I notice people with samey type rigs can also have the game working perfectly fine without issues.
Original Xbox are pretty easy to mod and they're like $50 on ebay, I see no reason to keep waiting for an emulator that will never come.
Wait, you fight Glorious and Gracious there? Werent you supposed to fight them much later?
Probably trying to ride on Nier Automatas popularity, thinking stylistic action games are alive again.
higher difficulty I think
go away IGN
meant for
It's funny because Nier is at the very best tied with MGR in gameplay, the only reason it got popular is fanservice and cringy weebs with their shitty storylines.
I'll take God Hand or DMC 3 over that pile of pretentious garbage any day.
I feel you, it is stupid especially since the port is actually good in itself but they fucked it up with the steam integration
hope they will still address it
Well if they ever get around to fixing this issue, I'll be happy to patch my game and play regular again. Not like much has changed really, just locked out of leaderboards and achievements which shouldn't be as big of a deal as it should be, but companies programmed us to give a shit about steam integration.
On normal and below you fight 3 joys there but on hard and infinite climax they are replaced with 2 Gracious and 1 Glorious
True I'm just being lazy about it, the game stores around my town suck at pricing and triple everything.
BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAPT
I'd put Nier above MGR in terms of freedom.
Most people shit on Nier as an action game mainly, because it removes the tilt of a combo meter and forces you to think for yourself rather than rely on the system working shit out for you, the combat has a depth that is better explained in the form of other people working it out, it takes a lot from their prior games and layers it on top of each other in forms of many different kinds of canceling and slow down momentum pod functions almost none of which is actually explained. With the debug options you can set up almost any kind of challenge to push this limit further in any part of the world which does add a lot to the game itself. It has the layer of depth of Bayonetta without QTE shit if you know how it all works. The fanbase that piggy backed off of Nier and Drakengard fans really left a sour taste in everyone's mouth, because it turned into a bunch of shitters that couldn't grasp any layer of the game's depth and writing it off.

...
but she does not wear underwear
Its still missing a 2B vs A2 climax fight though that should have been a tradition in every stylistic action game.
2 Fast 1 Furious
Mash forward. Seriously, that's all you need to do. It works like parry in MGR
That fight was to intense for other action games, the story driven focus was so rage driven. You couldn't help but feel the world fall out from underneath you as everything came to that ultimatum. The Ko-Shi-Ro-Shi combination fight switching between them was beyond surreal.
...
The weakest is definitely Nier Automata or Transformers. Automata has fucking nothing in the way of combos, you barely have to remember shit.
Wait what are you talking about. 2B and A2 never fought except that 30 sec beat em up section in the forest.
I read that test and the website itself admitted to using different PCs with different drivers and game versions. What was even the point of this whole benchmark if you couldn't replicate exactly the same conditions?
So I take it id Software didn't update/optimise the game between the Denuvo release and removal?
>you barely have to remember shit
Except how frame physics works to get into the depth of the game, jump and cancel frames, knowing pods load up animation slows time. It's layered combat, not much in the way of learning new shit beyond the weapon sets you get and their affinities, the tools you have to mastery are layered on top of each other in Automata, while removing the restriction of a combo meter and relying on player creativity more than score.
NieR Automata is a symptom of a problem in action games, you can only casualize so much, but you still have to give depth. Action games rely heavily on keeping a player motivated to mastery, Automata solves this with allowing you to straight up create scenarios from thin air rather then doing something akin to bloody palace or challenge rooms using debug. It removes a lot of tedium from the player, but doesn't actually sacrifice much in the way of depth, it kind of relies on setting your own standards of cuhrazy. It focuses RPG elements, the action is still there, however because they wanted to keep the focus on the rpg elements they removed a lot of meat which makes action players motivated which is setting standard limits and replace it with setting your own standards.
Laziest click-bait ever. They didn't even attempt to install the same driver version before running a benchmark.
But that in itself is a problem though. Its no different to defending Skyrim's barebones mechanics to hey "you can always just mod it/create your own fantasy scenario!"
If you want to be an action game, stick to being an action game. Get rid of the mini game nonsense. Its what really soured my experience of Bayonetta. I swear I never want to see a fucking shooting section ever again.
>every action game developer wants to make bullet hell games
I feel like if Taro makes another main series game it will be entirely bullet hell and I feel like Kamiya is itching to get his hands on remaking space harrier.
>space harrier
>that entire rocket sequence just to access the best boss fight in the gam
WHY MUST YOU DO THIS KAMIYA.
Its literally the Pod racing section of vidya. First minute its kinda cool because of the novelty but after 10 fucking minutes you want to bash your head it because it goes over and over.
if the game is worth the money, denuvo is irrelevant
A lot of Japanese developers in the action genre have a massive hard on for bullet hell games and Zun Touhou games. Because they wish they could be that insane.
Why would they be jealous of ZUN though? Theyre already richer and much more famous than he is.
what games would you like ported to pc next?
mine are:
breakdown
onimusha 1-3
silent hill 1-4
metal gear solid 1-4
godhand
panzer dragoon orta
and ninja gaiden black/ 2
>PC keeps getting games it doesn't deserve
when does it end
>games PC doesn't deserve
what the fuck does that even mean?
You can already emulate most of those though. What I want from SEGA is a big budget Phantasy Star game.
Its like asking why a swiss knife keeps getting new utility tools. PC is an open platform. No need to restrict your games onto consoles aside from company bias.
He has a "beautiful mind"
most of those are emulated perfectly like god hand or already on PC or emulated.
I want Jet Set Radio Future, just make sure Steam Integration works first.
Virtua Fighter 5: FS
You meant drunk as hell.
Vanquish
Silent Hill 2-4 are already on PC. I played 3 on a modern PC and it plays fine. MGS2 is also on PC.
it was actually pirated in less than an hour
Not to mention steam integration is broken for some people who bought the game and still have to apply a crack to make it work. Out of all things they could fuck up it had to be the AA and the leaderboards.
It'll be dead on arrival tho
I think people actually want vanquish and bayo 2 though
nintendo publishing bayonetta 2 on steam would be pretty interesting
And the sad part is that the ConsoleUsers will still take it as a port of an old game rather than a definitive remaster with better graphics fedelity than what is offered for the Xbox One.
Autism probably will off the chart around the world
its not impossible though
microsoft publishes minecraft on nintendo and sony platforms
sony publishes first party games on steam
and nintendo is making cellphone games as we speak
>Baxo sold around 70k copies in 4 days on steam
What are we getting next?
All fingers point to vanquish
since this is sega we're dealing with i'm thinking vanquish is probably their next port priority
Seems vanquish
It's published by Sega so we are definitely getting Vanquish, maybe they'll even do Anarchy Reigns too because why not.
Let's just hope Koei Tecmo sees how successful this port was and decide to port Ninja Gaiden as well, although I doubt it.
tecmo is fucked since they refuse to port anything related to oatmeal cookie and nintendo bought fatal frame out from under them
