Gotcha

Hmm... well for now im not really sure what else i can tell you at this point, ill have to look into this matter some more. However pro tip, if someone named LC icy tries to give you advice, dont listen to him because he claims he knows more than does. So most likely you'd just be wasting your time. (thats the stalker i was talking about)

Nah that was unrelated to my problem, I was just unsure if I should delete Xenoverse 1 because of the shared data stuff. I'm playing on windows 10 tho, and I'm not gonna upgrade to windows 11 if I can help it because it just seems incredibly dumb and resource heavy for no reason. I guess i'll try and verify the files, but one thing I do know is that the SSD was totally helping loading. Moving it to my internal HDD made things worse.

However removing DBXV1 shouldnt have an impact on DBXV2 in anyway, keep in mind though that for some reason this game is having issues with users still running windows 7 and some are having problems with windows 11. A lot of them either cant play or have very similar issue's to what you are dealing with. The best thing i can maybe tell you is to try to verify the games files, if you havent done that already. Try to uninstall the game, then go to the DBXV2 folder and delete it completely and then reinstall the game. You also may need to run the game in 60FPS has any higher seems to cause those kinds of problems for pretty much everyone, good PC or not.

Hello! I have to answer your comment from the DBXV2 forums here. Apparently steam has an issue with telling a stalker whos got some weird obsession with me to shut up, stop with the smug "im gods gift to the universe" and leave me alone. Ive blocked this dude and 2 of his alt accounts already...ive had enough of the dbag.

Well uh damn ok. I double dipped and reported him for cheating but also mentioned his harassment in the report. Its entirely possible that against all 1/10000 odds he got all the crits he did legally. But that doesn't excuse that he was getting at least one in my every interaction with him, and usually two at once.
