Title. I always skip them and don’t notice any detrimental effects at all. I used to let them run every time, but I don’t want to wait 5 minutes for every patch update bug fix anymore

      I still had issues, even with that setting… Damn my terrible memory — why can I only remember that I had problems, not what the problems were? 😂

        Was it CPU use/overheating? Steam will use all available resources doing the shader compilation, so when I start steam it jumps to around 100% use for a few minutes while compiling the shaders - I can use other programs in that time, but they’re noticeably more laggy.
