What are your specs of your rig?
Here are a few things you should try:
- Keep windows up-to-date (including optional updates)
- Try to install Windows Media Feature Pack (only for Windows 10 N and KN)
- Install or repair your video codecs by installing K-Lite Codec Pack
- Switch to a lower resolution and windowed-mode (I used a resolution of 1360x768)
Thank you for your suggestions, cold_arctus.
Unfortunately I already deleted the game since I couldn't watch any of the videos and on top of that my first playthrough got bugged (I peeped on mom peeing, went to bed and when prompted to check the noises from her bedroom I couldn't go anywhere; used the Last Choice a couple of times and nothing) and then restarted the game and came across the same issue at the same point again.
I always play all games in windowed-mode, I also tried the four resolutions. Besides, I have the last version of the K-Lite Codec Pack, which I updated just a few days ago. And I have the last version of Media Feature Pack for mi Windows 8.1.
I tried the last update of Joraell's "Betrayed", which includes huge and detailed animations and had no problem whatsoever with them. It looks like my laptop and Timestamps don't get along very well. Anyway I'll be waiting for the next release, which shouldn't take to long and I'll give it a second try then
