Recently I've been having some issues with framerate with D2R, dropping down to low 20s. I installed the Nouveau driver, purged all the Nvidia drivers, and then installed the new 535 driver and after some tinkering, D2R seems to be running in the 70ish range for the most part which is a huge improvement. Now, however, I seem to be having some inconsistent issues with TF2 launching.
Initially, everything worked fine. I launched all the games I have been playing lately and everything was running. I even played TF2 for a few hours without issue. Yesterday, a day after doing all of this, TF2 will not launch at all. When I click the play button in my library, it changes to cancel, stop, then back to play. All in just a second or 2. TF2 never actually launches. I tried verifying the integrity of the game files and even uninstalling/reinstalling but it still seems to get me the same result.
Some results of trying to launch TF2 and my system information from steam I've copy/pasted here: https://pastebin.com/z6GEupLb
Anyone have any idea what's causing my crashes?
Really? I loved the first one. I picked this one up shortly after release and never finished it. It seemed to have missed the mark for me and a few of my friends that played it. Something about it just didn't have the same magic.
Also, just took a quick peak at the ratings in steam. Not the most foolproof way to determine if a game is good but the original seems to have better ratings.
