Technical conditions and my suggestions
Hi there!
In this league, I, like many others, encountered a problem that came from PoE 2, namely the error "no video card in the slot" (possibly another wording), the temporary solution to which was to pause the game, recreate the device, and continue working with the game. Yes, for those who did not know, in PoE 1 and PoE 2 you can pull out the video card and the game will not close, and will work after returning the video card to its place. I understand that this is a very complex problem that could not be solved for a long time, and work is underway on it. I understand that this solution is better than a crash from the game. But this system has a small inconvenient detail that I have been encountering in recent days. The game is paused only when the game is not working, which means you have to press Esc in advance to pause it yourself after the restoration is complete. This is a risk of causing a game crash and is generally an inconvenient option. I would like an automatic pause that the player will turn off when he continues. Well, the most annoying thing is when this error occurs in the location with the Pinnacle boss (no pause). And, smoothly moving on to the next problem, even if you manage to survive those seconds while you have no opportunity to control the character, most likely the next 10 seconds will not be visible due to unloaded shaders. And here loading shaders is a problem that has existed for a long time, which will not be solved yet, because it is better to spend this time on creating a new way to draw graphics. Unfortunately, until then there will be situations like mine today, when I came to my first new Pinnacle boss, and was extremely saddened by the fact that I did not see either the animation of the transformation or the boss himself, he was transparent for about 30-40 seconds. His skills were invisible for the first 2-3 uses. And that's bad, because I lose a huge chunk of immersion, I lose the experience of fighting the boss, and I lose (not this time) experience for dying from something I didn't see. I understand why there are no pauses on Pinnacle bosses. I don't understand why they wouldn't add a technical pause that you can't call yourself at any time. I understand that the current texture streaming is limited in performance, but I don't understand why such important shaders as skills and the boss's body are not loaded in advance. I understand that my computer could be more powerful, but I can't do anything about it right now.
