Is it just me or are many well-known Unity games actually quite badly made?
Consider if you will that this laptop will happily run a game like Skyrim without issue. Would you expect a low-action 2D game like Oh Sir to run so hot it can't get past the tutorial without making my computer self-terminate? First idea I had was to limit the amount of CPU cores it was allowed to use. Starting at 50+% CPU usage, I cut it from all four to just one. This made the game stutter. Wildly. It needed at least three to not stutter, and still used 50+%. Then I used the NVidia control panel's per-application settings to disable a bunch of things and only then would the game run smoothly on a single core, at around 20% CPU usage. So far I've played and won two rounds, letting the system rest inbetween. And Oh Sir is by far not the only Unity-based game I've encountered with this issue. What's up with that? |

I think it's the Unity engine to be honest. Those games tend to run like someone running a marathon with a rope choking their neck. The world could always use more heroes! |

Unity is a poor engine that is overused, I'm not even surprised. ____________________ Good riddance! |

Posted by IceFairyAmyAnd then there's games like Cuphead. Which, stupidly, does not disprove either of your arguments. |

Posted by IceFairyAmyIt's overused because its so easy to do stuff in the engine and its very user friendly, I've tried unreal engine and I couldn't even figure out how to get menus up like blueprints didn't really help that all the tutorials to find it were outdated. ____________________ Yushe#1289Twitter - YouTube - E-mail |
