Honestly, I am a little soured on Dishonored 2 just because I cannot seem to get it to run smoothly at any framerate.

Never much fun to be looking up how-to guides on getting games to run well. I really really don’t want to spend what little time I have to play on configuration and benchmarking and etc.

@jplebreton, yes.

Unfortunately, the compass does get cluttered; also often fails to communicate stuff around the player, outside of the frustum, clearly.

So many recent big-budget games seem to have worked to move minimaps, radars, and waypoints into compasses.

@mogwai_poet, you mentioned listening to a podcast in which Raphaël Colantonio talked about Prey (2016) as a "space dungeon."

What podcast was that? I'm curious to listen to it.

Correct answer: it doesn’t matter.
