Awesome giveaway i would like to enter for the following games
life is Strange Complete Season Episodes 1-5
GRID 2
No doubt most people have shared their stories related to the games you are giving away , i have a strange story to share it's just a thing to show how devs have changed over the time, when the following games came out .
Deus ex HR
Tomb raider 2013
Torchlight 2
I had a relatively weak laptop with a ati mobility x1400 256mb card (128 mb of it was fake) . The main problem with this card was that despite being dx 9.0 c supported , it did not fully support all features including one main feature called vertex fetch , which meant even if a game said it would support dx 9.0c , it would certainly crash or fail to start with this card.
So when i had these games , i faced the same issue and reached out to the devs of the games aka eidos , crystal dynamics and runic about the issue , to my shock they actually included the fix in their next patches to support the games to work on such cards :D . i was stunned and of course finished the games.
However today
Runic is dead , the newer tomb raider and deus ex dont even support dx10 cards , let alone dx9 , i contacted the devs as i am now stuck with a intel hd 3000 which does not support dx11 and was told there is no way to run the games....
I remember one of the devs replying to my thanks saying " we want all gamers from different walks of life to playing and enjoy our games"
i guess today its different ......
