Risen

Just bought this on steam - flashing white screen, unplayable!
As the title says, as soon as I wake up after the ship wrecks the screen flashes white uncontrollably to the point where I feel like im going to get a seizure. I thought maybe i need to lower the resolution and not downsample but it doesn't help. I am really sad atm because I really wanted to give this trilogy a go, but I am about to uninstall and never even try it.

Im getting the exact same problem. Its like screan tearing x 100 and it will get stuck in negative color scheme as well

Update

I turned off depth of field in the games menu, seemed to fix it. Hope this works for you too

I'd reccomend you get a NVidia graphics card if you dont already have one. If you do but its in a laptop, get a desktop.

I have a feeling that the issue comes from the in games post process effects conflicting with GPU ppe. It's more than likely that only a small percentage of users will have this issue.

Heh, I hope so, I only played for an hour so far becuase I am really into xcom atm, but it seems like it has potential.
