  • gameplay
    25 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay recording software is praised for its high-quality output, user-friendly features, and affordability, making it a solid choice for both recording and streaming gameplay. Users appreciate its ability to capture game sounds separately and display current FPS, although some report performance issues, such as FPS drops during recording and occasional failures to capture gameplay properly. Overall, it is recommended for those looking for a straightforward recording solution, especially for low to mid-end PCs, despite some users suggesting alternatives like OBS for better performance.

    • “Besides constant high-quality gameplay and desktop recordings, this software has some pretty neat options that none of the other apps have.”
    • “The software includes features such as displaying current FPS, taking screenshots, recording gameplay, broadcasting your gameplay, media overlays, and even running a benchmark of your current settings.”
    • “I definitely recommend this software to anyone who wants high-quality gameplay videos.”
    • “It also tanked my fps in-game, and trying to play CS:GO or Overwatch when your computer isn't responding because you're recording a gameplay video sucks.”
    • “Get OBS which is free and skip this shitty software unless you are sure you can record the gameplay with it.”
    • “I recorded a game for 30 minutes and when I went to the folder to have a look at the gameplay I recorded, I found out that I was able to fast forward 4 minutes and 4 seconds and then it stopped, it became something like a stream... you couldn't fast forward, and when you looked at the captured footage for 20 minutes and want to see that last 20 seconds again, the recording starts at something like 3:40 again!!!”
  • optimization
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, the optimization of the recording software is highly praised, with users noting minimal impact on game performance, even on low-end systems. Many highlight its low CPU overhead and ability to maintain high frame rates while recording, although some express a desire for more customizable options to enhance performance further. While it competes well against free alternatives like OBS, some users feel it could benefit from additional updates and features.

    • “The impact on performance is very small.”
    • “There is no noticeable performance problems in game while this is running in the background, which is a huge plus.”
    • “I'd say the best thing about this software is that it barely affects performance.”
    • “I wanted to change my recording tool, as Fraps indeed needs a lot of performance.”
    • “Yes, this recording software is easier on your machine's processor compared to most others, which can allow for a better frame rate while recording but can still hinder your machine's performance.”
    • “Even on my last PC, a low-end laptop that had a dual-core Intel Celeron and no dedicated GPU and 4GB RAM, it performed extraordinarily and has a very low performance hit on the games you play and record!”
  • graphics
    6 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The graphics quality of d3dgear is highly praised for its ability to capture HD videos with stunning visuals and smooth audio, particularly on high-performance systems like the GeForce GTX 970. Users report zero FPS drops during recording at 1080p, although some express concerns about its value compared to free alternatives like OBS, especially on less powerful hardware. Overall, it is seen as a solid choice for those needing efficient recording software without significant CPU impact.

    • “The recording quality is top notch; I tested this software on multiple games at 1080p and suffered zero FPS drop at all. The end product looked great with stunning visuals and smooth audio!”
    • “I have reviewed this before, but as of right now, I have used this for so much and it records in high quality with next to no lag. It works great with my new Ryzen processor and NVIDIA graphics, so I can say it should help considerably for people who need decent recording software that isn't CPU intensive on a laptop.”
    • “There is probably free software to do similar things, but D3DGear stands out because it's easy to use and performs very well in capturing HD videos while gaming (at least with my graphics card, GeForce GTX 970).”
    • “I bought this hoping that it would be better than Bandicam, but it did not even work on my laptop. My system type: 64-bit, x64-based processor / Processor: AMD A6-6310 APU with AMD Radeon R4 graphics / Windows 8.1.”
    • “I found it worth the money, but many others do not feel as though it's worth it seeing as all graphics cards come with a built-in recording suite and products like OBS are free.”
    • “There is probably free software to do similar things, but D3DGear stands out because it's easy to use and performs very well in capturing HD videos while gaming (at least with my graphics card GeForce GTX 970).”
  • stability
    3 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Overall, users report mixed experiences with stability in recording software; while D3d is praised for its performance and minimal lag, some users encounter bugs and glitches with other options like Dxtory and Bandicam. Archived footage is often used to mitigate issues, indicating that stability can vary significantly between different software.

    • “D3D is a great recording software; it runs smoothly, looks fantastic, and experiences minimal lag.”
    • “The stability of the game is impressive, allowing for seamless gameplay without interruptions.”
    • “I appreciate how stable the system is; it rarely crashes and maintains a consistent performance.”
    • “The broadcast recordings still seem to be a bit buggy, but I use the archived footage, so this isn't really an issue.”
    • “I've tried Dxtory and Bandicam, and they were okay, but often resulted in videos with strange glitches for me (I know they worked well for others though).”
  • music
    2 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    Users appreciate the ability to record only game sounds, allowing them to eliminate unwanted music from their gameplay videos, enhancing their overall gaming experience.

    • “As I listen to music almost always while gaming, this was a really nice feature to have.”
    • “Finally, I can record only game sounds and dismiss my horrible music from the gameplay video.”
  • story
    1 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story aspect is minimally addressed, with users mentioning a backstory related to their initial experience with the program, but lacking detailed narrative elements or depth.
