reading the thread further the reply from author of original tweet .... thing was overblown cause of twitter being twitter
the crashing is the games online drm irrc. the cracked version supposedly doesnt have the issueNo keyboard and mouse support, so you'll need some kind of Xinput controller for the less tinkering possible, and basically no graphical settings outside of fullscreen toggles and antialiasing. I also experienced awful audio levels with distortion and some random crashing. It's awful.
some backgrounds in a few cutscenes, some clouds in the sky and a very agressive motion blur is what you're missing out on PC
PS5 and Series are pretty much PCs, but let's port from an outdated and underspec'd ARM based handheld.
Awesome!XSEED made a statement regarding the PC port:
"Thanks for celebrating the launch of Travis' latest adventure on new platforms like Steam. We're excited for you to explore Santa Destroy once again, and we wanted to let you know there will be an update coming soon to improve some of the visual elements in this version, including draw distance."
Oh wow, this sure is a twist to this story that I wasn't expecting.An offical update by Xseed on the Steam forum of No More Heroes 1 half an hour ago:
"We wanted to provide an update on the Steam versions of No More Heroes 1 + 2.
We are very much aware of the issues affecting this title since launch, and after over a year of trying to develop patches, we can report that we have brought the effort to address these issues in-house. This has delayed things and we apologize for the lack of communication up until this point, but rest assured that we will provide further information as soon as we are confident that we have patches in releasable shape."

Did this patch ever arrive? Also which tweaks are these?I wonder how long the NMH3 patch is going to take. For now I'm just playing it with some .ini tweaks. Looks great, and it runs at a locked 144 FPS on my laptop with a 2070.
I've not seen any patch released for the PC version.
There's some differences that can't be changed of course, but for the most part it improves it to a level which is better than the PS5 version.Oh, they said something? I missed that. I guess there's some small hope, then.
I could have sworn the differences between the PS5 and PC versions were more extreme than draw distance. Like, the textures were up-rezzed for the PS5 release and that also got skipped over on the PC version.
any progress on this?XSEED made a statement regarding the PC port:

So you're saying there's a chance we might get KBM support?An offical update by Xseed on the Steam forum of No More Heroes 1 half an hour ago:

Last I remember they did a few updates to the console versions, but don't know entirely what they entail. They have not patched the PC version at all, but it may be held up due to them taking over NMH 1+2 in-house for development to improve the PC ports.
I almost thought this was another fruitless bump, but I'm glad to see that's not the case!Yo, the patch dropped today. It's 20.63GB and should bring it up to par with the next gen consoles. Installing now, will report back later.
Are any of the ports of this series on PC good? I've only heard nightmare tales that just don't stop.
I assume the new patch didn't fix that issue?Man, I bought NMH3 on Steam in hopes of playing it on my Steam Deck, but FMV's don't work on the platform. Too bad...
In general?!
All of them are mediocre but i heard 2 is really terrible.Are any of the ports of this series on PC good? I've only heard nightmare tales that just don't stop.
For NMH3. When there's an FMV it gets a black screen instead. Plenty of other games have had videos work fine.
Haven't tried the new patch yet. I'll just google if it fixes the issue, not willing to clear up the space and check myself.
Figured that had to be the case! ThanksFor NMH3. When there's an FMV it gets a black screen instead. Plenty of other games have had videos work fine.
I've got room on my deck, I'll give it a shot.For NMH3. When there's an FMV it gets a black screen instead. Plenty of other games have had videos work fine.

Unless you're really attached to the motion controls, PS5 and Xbox are your best route for 3 in terms of not looking blurry and hitting a consistent framerate.I was going to buy on PS5 but heard its really a basic port job. So stick with the switch ver. then?
Yes. Somehow, they ended up contracting two separate companies to develop two separate PC ports 💀No More Heroes 3 - No More Heroes 3 Ver. 1.10 Patch Notes - Steam News
We have released a new update for No More Heroes 3 that applies the following changes: - Rendering quality in cutscenes and open world maps has been improved to be equivalent to the latest Microsoft Store version of No More Heroes 3. This includes improved textures, sharper backgrounds, and draw...store.steampowered.com
...Wait, there was a Windows Store version? And it wasn't a port of the Switch version? Since when?
The old version has been restored for those who prefer it, as a Steam "beta" branch. So Steam users now have both the "old gen" port, and the "current gen" port.
Yes. Somehow, they ended up contracting two separate companies to develop two separate PC ports 💀
The Windows Store version is a PC version of the "next-gen" version, since the beginning. The Steam version used to be a PC version of the "old-gen" version. Now the Steam version is equivalent to the Windows Store version.
So basically Xseed paid for two PC ports and then proceeded to replace one of them with the other one lmao
