I've tried to run BG2 again (I need to finish my modded playthrough) and my laptop is in such a bad state it prectically lags BG2. BG2, which could be run on a determined microwave, on a laptop that has 8GB of RAM! It is heavily used and it has a lot of apps, but I've uninstalled everything I didn't use and cleaned the registry awhile ago. I suspected the antivirus, but the system manager shows it actually doesn't consume a lot of resources. It's not the disk space, since it's got plenty. It turns out it uses 100% of its disk all the time, and the main culprits seems to be.... *drum roll* system and Windows telemetry service! I now have to spend the evening elbows deep in frankly confusing system settings to find a way to turn the telemetry service off, and it may or may not improve the situation.
Once I finish this playthough, I'm definitely switching the laptop to Unix.

I wonder is it only my experience.

Bro... what happened to my copy of OMORI...
WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE THAT??? I use 2x Resolution, Windowed mode (I have a fear of putting anything in fullscreen). And the last time I played the game, it did not look like that. It looked like that when I booted it up and thought loading a random save might fix it maybe but no.
This ^^^ is an old screenshot from last time I played where there's no unnecessary black void wasting space.
SO WHAT HAPPENED TO IT NOW??? THERE'S A VOID EVERYWHERE! I didn't touch this game for nearly a year bro, I also didn't touch any of my Steam settings so what the fuck is that.

Is it just me or is the achievement "Der Freischutz", aka "shoot a monster's weak point from very far away", impossible to get playing mobile
I've been pretty exclusively playing mobile because I frankly don't have a computer that can render the game without complete and utter lag, but I've been trying to get this achievement for like two days now in various different locations using various techniques because it was the last one of that set I needed, and it really was impossible
Like I was hitting the weak points from as far as it would render the monsters before they just disappeared and I still wasn't getting it
I tried poking around in the settings to see if it was possible to get them to render the monsters a bit farther away and I couldn't find any setting that made an impact on that, and I hadn't turned my settings down or anything I was still working at default
So anyway, today I finally downloaded it on my computer, went to the exact same location I had been trying, got it in two shots even with the excessive lag
I took pictures for comparison purposes
That's exactly where I was standing when I got the achievement, the red dot was what I was shooting at, and the yellow circle next to the tree was where I'd have to be standing in order to see the exact same monster on mobile
And here's a picture of me standing in that yellow circle area, if I moved even a step back that monster in the red circle would have disappeared completely, the ones on the higher platforms already had
It just doesn't really make sense for a game that kind of markets itself as mobile centered to have an achievement you can't get while playing that version—
