The pre-rendered/full cinematic cut-scenes stutter along at like 2 frames/second (if even that) until I get kicked back to the Director --Rarely, it'll "accept" my hammering on the [ESC] key and skip the cut-scene, but most of the time it doesn't, so I'm stuck at just before whatever plot-point the movie comes in at, and can't proceed further.
All of the current expansions --from the start of the new player tutorial part all the way through to Beyond Light do this.
Regular game-play and [i]in-engine[/i] cut scenes go just fine. I've tried all the fixes listed that are available to me, and nothing works. Is there any way to just disable these stupid movies so I can actually play the Legendary edition I just -blam!-ing paid for, or do I get this turd refunded whilst I've still got time?
Specs:
Steam version, PC Legendary Edition
Win7, 64-bit Service Pack 1
Intel i7-3770k @ 3.5Ghz
16 Gig's RAM
NVidia GEForce GTX 1070, 8 Gig's Video memory (my game settings run around 2 - 3)
I even went with GEForce Experience's "recommended" potato-mode/Commodore 64 settings, and this made no difference.
