Also coming soon to Windows 10
How are you liking Quantum Break?
It’s much more divisive than I expected it to be, but then, I didn’t have to contend with performance problems and other technical mishaps found in the Windows 10 version. That stuff surely would have colored my perception. Remedy Entertainment says it is “working diligently” to rectify the issues, and the studio also has numerous fixes lined up for the Xbox One version.
The second title update is out today for Xbox and is “Hopefully not too long to go” for PC.

Hah, come again?
Good timing on the update, at least for me. I’ve been meaning to go back for a second playthrough to pick up the remaining collectibles, make different junction-point choices, and also because I just generally dig the combat. One of these weekends! I keep saying that, anyway.
