Iron Galaxy has made some mistakes, but they've also knocked it out of the park a few times, too.
When? I don't recall any pc ports made by Iron Galaxy that were "knocked out of the park."
I'm kinda surprised by Iron Galaxy, thought Sony purchased Nixxes to be their 'PC port studio'.
Naughty Dog has a hard-on for Iron Galaxy, for some reason. Maybe Druckmann has some friends who work there. Nixxes may also be busy with their original IP and/or another port like Horizon Forbidden West.

Not necessarily just PC ports (they've only done a couple of those entirely themselves), but plenty of console games and the new Killer Instinct which was entirely their own. KI's pretty well regarded by the fighting game community, especially considering the base material from the 90's. Seems they've been at least "involved" in tons of PC ports even if they weren't the only team working on 'em.

Did you play with mouse and keyboard? I remember they had a couple of different patches that actually made using a mouse even worse and I don't remember any patches after that that ever fixed it. I've been using a controller in that game so haven't had any issues.

Yes. I have no idea what mouse issues they had, but I played it some months back and it was 100% fine for me. I had zero issues. Perhaps one of the best optimized and bug free games I've played in years.

Well maybe they had fixed it by then or you played it before they had another patch that messed it up. It was certainly a massive issue and you had to put your polling rate below 500 I believe for the mouse to even come close to operating normally. And then they fixed that and then another patch broke it again and that's the last I remember of it. I tested it when people were complaining yes it was an absolute stuttering mess to try to even move around with the mouse at that time.

I played it a couple of months ago with a m/kb and it was fucking perfect, I 100% agree with Flogger.

either way I wasn't going to buy this at launch...was always going to wait for a sale for 3 reasons...A) I didn't love this game as much as a lot of others...very good game but not one of the best games of all time...B) I already played it on PS4 so a graphics upgrade alone is not worth $59.99 (even though the upgrade does look really nice)...C) have to be leary of an Iron Galaxy PC port

I never played the second game so I'm hoping they release Part 2 on PC soon (Demon's Souls, Forbidden West and Ghost of Tsushima are the PS games I most want to see ported to PC ahead of LoU Part II)

Okay well then they fixed it then. That doesn't change the fact that there were literally months that the mouse was essentially broken unless you went in and lowered your polling rate.

can you show us some links from reputable sources that show the issue that you are referring to?...you mention in multiple threads concerning various games that you can post videos if someone requests it but you never ever end up posting any videos...it seems like every game you complain about stuttering and claim everyone should see it (usually you just cite Digital Foundry)...then you recently posted a thread detailing the major issues (crashing/instability) you were having with your individual PC...ever think that a lot of these issues were caused by your system issues instead of it being a widespead thing?

here's a video from your Bible for graphics- Digital Foundry about the Legacy of Thieves PC port (launch day review)

Again it got broken on two different patches and I'm sure you could simply Google that and find out that information. Anyone that halfway followed that game could not be unaware of those issues. And has already said I use a controller so it was not an issue for me but I switched over to the mouse to see what people were talking about at that time and it was a mess just like they said. My gosh that's why I told you about how you had to change the polling rate because that was the workaround for that issue.

and yet your Holy Bible- Digital Foundry- never mentioned it in their launch day review of the PC version...

I don't know if you're purposely being obtuse or simply not actually paying attention to what I'm saying. So again for the third time it was two different patches that caused the mouse issues. When digital foundry tested the game I think it would be safe to assume that it was before those patches. Again I'm pretty sure you have the ability to do a simple Google but you would rather just argue for some reason.

Just googled it myself and YES it was patches that messed up the mouse just like a said. A patch that messed up the mouse made the game nearly unplayable to move the mouse around unless you lowered the polling rate to 125 HZ. Also it introduced camera stuttering with mouse movement requiring you to set a max framerate in the control panel to stop the camera stuttering. I could post links all day about this issue but I will sum it up with just these two for now unless you still want to argue about it.

and you love to blame every game when it's obvious that your system also has major issues...

part 2 is fun to play, but the story actually sucks.

Looks like I played the game around November 10-11. At least that is when my screen shots were taken, and I never loaded up the game since finishing it. I did set an FPS cap which I do for all games to keep it within the G Sync range. I may have a global setting on through Nvidia's software.
