Okay? Did you read it? It's not a quest, so you're allowed to read it. No there is not a quest map icon ....

This one took me a while to figure out. He's going to all this bother and bedevilery to get a game to run when it's already running fine. What is the problem? It runs!

Oh, 22 fps is bad. Got it.

Anyone want to buy a new computer for me?

  1. Sometimes I'm happy with 2 seconds per frame. If the game's stable and actually runs, that's usually a Good Thing.

  2. I read that comic yesterday and I thought I was being dumb when I couldn't really work out what the fuss was. Since it's a physical and theoretical impossibility for us both to have been dumb about this, then it must mean it's not that great a point. Or we're dumb.

  3. I think the point is that in the three hours between panel 1 and panel 3 he performed technological ju-jitsu and only got one extra fps out of it.

  4. Oh, yea. Now I see that. Makes a lot more sense.

    But I maintain that 22 FPS is bein a hata.
