- Please note: I received a free Steam key through the Steam Curator Connect program to review this game. Stay Alive My Son PCVR is a narrative-driven game that is mostly cinematic, but does have some VR interactions. Tested on the Meta Quest 3 using link cable on my RTX 3080. You can purchase experience here: store.steampow...

Hi Fast Lawyer, thank you so very much for your kind and throughrough reveiw. I beleive you really understood what we were trying to accomplish wiht Yathay's story and your emotional reaction to the piece is really appreciated and felt. About the optimization, I would love to speak to you about it because we tested the project extensively, using renderdoc to assure frame rate, and also optimized it. We never saw it drop to 10 and certainly not 1. This has only been experienced with folks running on Windows 11, despite having a 3080. This is why we recommended Windows 10. Would love to speak to you so we can understand the places you had issue or if you were running it on Windows 11. We have spent 5 years bringing this to life so it is important for us to want to make it better and more accessible in any way we can so we appreciate the feedback and want to work with you. Thank you so much again!!!
Well unfortunately, not sure I am able to roll back to Windows 10 at this point, but I will pin this so that everyone can see that this is a Windows 11 issue. Thanks and good luck!
@@FastLawyer Yep, that's the problem. Im not sure why Windows 11 does this but this is where the issue is. Thank you for pinning everyone to flag this again. We certainly do not want people to have a bad experience. THANK YOU AGAIN!!!
@@FastLawyer Just a thought - if possible - would you mind if you editting your title to flag Windows 11 issue to see comments and use Window's 10 as recommended... we dont want people to miss the comment or not support it. I know it is hard to edit your revie and it would be a bigger ask. Thank you again
@@UME_STUDIOS Given that most PCVR users like myself with modern high end pc’s (rtx4090 in my case) will be using win11 I think you need to fix its compatibility. The main issue I’ve had with a few older developed apps is that Win11 enables hardware acceleration graphics (HAGS) by default. Disabling this often helps. Also, in some cases I’ve found modifying the app’s properties to allow win7 compatibility helps. Anyway, I hope you manage to sort this out. Limiting your app to win10-only is going to be very restrictive and I think your sales will not be as high as you’d like.
@@UME_STUDIOS Sorry but I think a better option is for you to find out why there may be an issue using win11. Most users with modern PC's are now currently running win11 imho. Win11 graphics setting default hardware acceleration graphics (HAGS) = enabled. This can sometimes cause problems with PCVR and I've found it best to disable this. Also, you can try modifying the app's exe file properties /compatibility settings to say win7, and this sometimes helps with older developed apps.
Fast Lawyer could you do a review of The Devourer: Haunted Souls? It's one steam 🙏
I have a gameplay & early impressions for the game here (also written on steam): ua-cam.com/video/0J9lCQfkNyc/v-deo.html
Looks great but way too overpriced at au$58.50. Maybe when it gets a 50% discount on a Steam sale.
Yeah, most movies are $19.99 USD so the price seems out of place since this is analogous to that content
Thanks Tomc1380, It was priced for its high graphics, quality, and prestige but we will take your note into high consideration. The most important thing for us is to make Yathay's story accessible to more people globally. So thank you for the suggestion.
@@FastLawyer Great, thank you for the suggestion!
