monkeydelarge: Steam makes some games run like garbage if you don't have a powerful machine. I don't know why.
Perhaps related to the Steam API? Consider how often it pings the client, and then pings the online service to update that '
Yep i'm playing Shadow Warrior.... I'm still playing Shadow Warrior.... Nope no new messages... Got an achievement for beheading the vampire with a razor comb. Got achievement for standing still for 20 minutes... Got achievement for dying due to hunger... Sending random statistics to steam again...'
(
I don't know if there's any such achievements, but you get the idea).
Actually restarting the game i've lowered several resolution/graphics options merely because i wanted to and it still looked awesome on medium (
with tweaks).
