Hear me out. A few games have shader installations that will usually apply any new settings you put down AFTER you restart the game, and a lot of other games have graphics settings that will only apply after you’ve rebooted the game.
I don’t think it would cost developers ANY amount of money or any significant development time to add a “Reboot game” button (or toggle) every time the player presses the quit button, or give the player a prompt every time they change a setting that requires a game restart (like in both PC versions of GTA V).
I also think ANY game should have a “full potato” mode capable of running in older computers with NONE of the fancy graphics stuff that we have access to today, despite having a decent computer now.
Not a setting, but a “here’s what you did last time/here’s where you need to go now”. If it’s been a little while since I played the game, I shouldn’t be lost trying to figure out where I am or where I’m going.
I’m playing Pokemon Moon right now and as annoying as the rotom can be I find the recap useful if maybe a little bit hand holdy.
