  1. When I try to stream Titan Quest Anniversary Edition on Twitch, some people say that the text is blurry. I've tried to lower the texture, detail effects, etc..The only thing that seemed to work was when I removed the antialiasing. Could it be that the game is so old, nothing can be done to smooth out the text?

  2. I just want to say I really appreciate this. My gaming computer was given to us by my brother in law and as amazing as it is, I know squat about it.

  3. My only question is what this means in relationship to hit-boxes in fps?
    Does it enhance/make the hit-box edges smoother too?
    Or should I keep it off to see pixel-for-pixel where I need to shoot?
