downloading warzone mobile

i's 6gb

has exclusive skins...

dragon dogma 2 apparently runs like ass on both console and pc

also takes 100 hours to get to the fun part

well that's a skip

[tribal crypt]

physics in dd2 is killing performance

kinda weird though that their gameplay showcases ran fine

[next rapids]

frs 3.1 will allow frame gen with other upscaling methods, huge win

[elfin lark]

This will not stop gamers from circlejerking how awesome the game is

[rich tundra]

I have only seen positive about that game

I don't like that the game doesn't have horse like zelda

Or rdr

Looks pretty nice by those photos

Being able to see your storage faster is veeeery nice for me

[spark oxide]

always preferred Sony's aesthetic but i hate that i have to go through about 4 pages to do anything on PS5

[charred quail]

okay so what's the issue?

[lost sluice]

i still havent finished starfield

is the mainstory really only 23 hours ?

damn

[charred quail]

the main story is the starborn quest? yeah around that

[lost sluice]

alright

[charred quail]

the other story lines are much better though

[lost sluice]

i feel like ive been playing for forever

but i also had to basicly start over due to an error

[charred quail]

even the final mission isn't even bad, the dimension jumping was very fun

I don't get why, out of all the problems this game has, people are now hating on the story and mission design

[lost sluice]

lol

sometimes people just need something to complain on

[charred quail]

"uhhh we didn't have time so we had to do dimension skipping to reduce workload" and??? like that's a bad thing?

it turned out great

[lost sluice]

ive just got back to the part where you first start getting powers from tempels

[ivory onyx]

Tfw you spent so much time doing side shit only to reset it all when you finish the starborn mission

[lost sluice]

the error i got wasnt bethesdas fault tho, was steam cloud that failed

[ivory onyx]

indie company

[charred quail]

these people exist

"game runs like shit"
"this means nothing"

[rich tundra]

Bro 8 is good why people crying

Performance issues is still a problem in Jedi survivor but it has 9

So it's fine

[tribal crypt]

oh no they left it uncapped

thats a mistake

[polar wren]

Yo what's cooking

What's the news

Just woke up

I'm hearing that dragon dogma 2 is being 30 fps

When are we going to get past that fucking threshold of 30fps

[ivory onyx]

When older consoles finally get discontinued after being out for 2 years so devs don't have to make their new games run on potatoes?

[polar wren]

Embarrassing honestly

This is including on PC

[latent moat]

We're back exactly where we were almost 19 years ago in early gen 6(PS3/360) era

Focus on graphics and fidelity rather than performance.

Early ps3 games struggled to even hit 20fps in many areas

That is not acceptable in 2024

But 8K graphics amirite?

[polar wren]

So annoying

[ivory onyx]

Can't wait for 16k

PowerPoint games gonna be lit

[latent moat]

Can't forget those super high-res audio files

That 98% of gamers won't notice the difference from regular compressed audio

It's fine guys only 30GB more for all those sounds

[rich tundra]

Starfield is also 30 fps on console isn't it?

[polar wren]

Yeah it is, I'm not having an argument over starfield as I said it was visual stunning and being the only good part about the game.

[rich tundra]

Visually stunning 🤣🤣🤣

[polar wren]

I will gladly talk shit on it's 30 fps bullshit

[latent moat]

Starfield is pretty open world

Dragon dogma 2's map is smaller than the first

[polar wren]

Yikes

Preforming like shit and smaller map. What else is there

[latent moat]

capcom drm

[polar wren]

Oh forgot about capcom drm

Fuck their drm

[rich tundra]

Really?

[polar wren]

It's the same one that went after the mods right

[latent moat]

yeah

[rich tundra]

It is what it is man

It's day one

[latent moat]

Just wait for a year after launch for the actual complete game with full content and all the dlcs for a lower price

[rich tundra]

Patches incoming I guess

[latent moat]

[rich tundra]

Game already takes 60+ or 100 hours of content and we are waiting for dlc already bro

[latent moat]

modern gaming is where the actual launch of the game is a year after it's original launch

[polar wren]

True

Speaking of updates, sea of thieves is finally cooking a bunch for season 12, 13, and 14

[charred quail]

I was so ready to get dragon dogma 2 man

need a new rpg

[rich tundra]

This is true which is sad bro

This year is rpg year

Year started with final fantasy rebirth and dragons dogma 2

Rise of the Ronin

[latent moat]

play the first one

[charred quail]

already did

[rich tundra]

If bioware releases dragon Age dread wolf this year then that will be great

[polar wren]

If it's just those three I wouldn't say RPG year unless no one else is producing games

[rich tundra]

I didn't said rpg of the year

I meant year full of rpg games

[charred quail]

rise of the ronin is also not as good as expected apparently

but it's a sony exclusive so I don't care

[polar wren]

What's rise of the ronin again

[latent moat]

Ghost of Tsushima Lite

[charred quail]

japanese elden ring from team ninja

[latent moat]

I don't even know what to expect from modern BioWare anymore

[charred quail]

the people who made Nioh and Nioh 2

Nioh 2 is brilliant

[polar wren]

Huh, still no idea what those are

[charred quail]

it's just dark souls with a different coat

[rich tundra]

Last hope isn't it bro 😔

[summer furnace]

Today is pc horizon 2

[rich tundra]

Digital foundary said it's a good port actually

[charred quail]

new alone in the dark game is good, but game journalists hate it

[polar wren]

Game journalism is so fucking lame

Actually, journalism in general is so fucking lame

Always full of shit

Oooh forgot about that South Park game

[latent moat]

It's from nixxes, to be expected

[polar wren]

I loved the South Park games (except the mobile ones)

[rich tundra]

[rich tundra]

They should have ported Jedi survivor for me

😔

[latent moat]

[polar wren]

I hope they have the same fucked up southpark humor in this game

Sad man developers need to understand the launch day impression

In review I read if you have created a character and want to start with new character you need to buy something with real money.
What have they done.

"There is no option in game to start a new game or delete the current save file.
Once you create a character, you are stuck with your created character and must purchase Art of Metamorphosis - Character Editor to change it"

"Pay-to-Win Items
Portcrystal - Warp Location Marker
Obtain a Portcrystal, which can be set at a destination of your choice. Use a Ferrystone to instantly transport your party to the Portcrystal's location.
Wakestone - Restore the dead to life!
Gain one Wakestone, a stone ensorceled with miraculous magick. Formed of Wakestone shards, it holds the power to restore the dead to life once.
[X] Rift Crystals - Points to Spend Beyond the Rift
Gain [X] rift crystals, which can be used to hire pawns or purchase special items"

What were they thinking

I'm not sure if I linked you in this ever.

[shell flare]

Have you seen the 6 Beam Laser Stone Rhino? Shits a literal drill :3

[empty ivy]

I'm scared.

[lost sluice]

are people not mostly upset that dogma 2 is really cpu heavy?

[lost kelp]

Im upset because Capcom is doing Capcom things

[lost sluice]

im holding off to buy the game since i read that people with ryzen 5800x3d like mine dip down to 30 fps alot

[spiral void]

Just wait until it’s modded to remove the micro transactions

[lost sluice]

wonder if they will start to ban people who mod in the dlcs

[rich tundra]

Usually Capcom makes good games
Dragons dogma 2 is also good game but they messed it up with awful decisions which is sad

[onyx nest]

Hi guys. who has experience in testing PC and mac games. Please give me feedback

[lost sluice]

my family only had macs when i was a kid if that counts

all the games i couldnt play lol

[spiral void]

I’m using a Mac right now for work

[austere sonnet]

A Mac mac or Big Mac

[spiral void]

Why not both

[rich tundra]

I will take one big mac

[lost sluice]

a big mac with large fries and soda thanks

[rich tundra]

I am also repeating this same order @austere sonnet

[onyx nest]

OK Mac

[rich tundra]

Mac not good for games bro

[austere sonnet]

@lost sluice will be paying for it right

[rich tundra]

Then doubling the order

[lost sluice]

[onyx nest]

this is true, but nevertheless our game supports Mac

[rich tundra]

our game hmm

[onyx nest]

Yes. I am a recruitment manager for testing the game.

[lost sluice]

btw are the big macs over there tiny aswell? its like two slices of their tiniest and cheapest burgers. being their nr1 burger you think they might want to upgrade them with their large premium patties

[shut wigeon]

The Big Mac consists of two beef patties, packed inside a sesame seed bun dressed with lettuce, Big Mac sauce, cheese, pickles and onions. Despite being made with exactly the same seven components, the burger contains an extra 100 calories in the US. The American version has 590, compared to 493 in the UK. wtf,??

[lost sluice]

big mac despite its name is among their smaller burgers here

lol

but then again we got plenty of high quality burger places here thats not much more expensive than mcdonalds

so theres really no reason to go there

[shut wigeon]

We always eat five guys

[lost sluice]

oh nice five guys seem to be looking into opening in sweden aswell

is their burgers that good?

[dim trench]

what about the double big mac?

[lost sluice]

thing i dont understand tho are people who go to expensive restaurants and order burgers for over 20 euro when theres plenty of other nice stuff you can have while you're there

if u want a burger go to a burgerplace, just as good and way cheaper

https://www.windowscentral.com/gaming/dragons-dogma-2-launches-to-mostly-negative-review-bombing-after-microtransaction-reveal-and-man-what-a-bummer

[latent moat]

You mean people obviously angry they revealed mtx just now?

You can also only have 1 save file at a time

MICROTRANSACTIONS IN A SINGLEPLAYER GAME

[lost sluice]

i had no clue they were famous for this

or did they start with dragons dogma 2?

[rich tundra]

Devil may cry also has those things

If I am not wrong bro

[lost sluice]

ah

i didnt notice them in the last i played

but i may have just looked the other way

[rich tundra]

But hey at least their games are good.

[lost sluice]

fair

[rich tundra]

But this doesn't justify anything

[lost sluice]

everyone gotta make their money some way, but ye it might not be the right way

[rich tundra]

Ubisoft also does that

I think it started with unity

[rich tundra]

Yes but if only devs realise that if their game is good people will buy it anyway

Like baldurs gate

or elden ring

[lost sluice]

ye its not easy to reach those hights tho, both were game of the year

but ure right

[summer furnace]

Optional mtx : if the item can be earnt another way without real money
Not optional mtx : if the item can only be earnt with real money

pls pls separate the two

[rich tundra]

Man if the microtransaction is just only skins then it's fine

[summer furnace]

It's not fine if there isn't a second way to earn them without real money

[rich tundra]

Yeah that's true but if that thing gives gameplay advantages then it's worse

[lost sluice]

i find it abit weird to buy overpowered stuff in a singleplayer game tho, its not an mmo that lasts for forever. you will only ruin your own experience

[rich tundra]

Yes

[summer furnace]

The first one can exist in any form I don't care, even if a button to finish the game

But never the second one

[charred quail]

LMAO

[charred quail]

it costs money to change your appearance in a singleplayer game

holy shit

fuck capcom

[shut wigeon]

This is why we all love Fromsoftware games. They never come with microtransactions. Occasionally they make an amazing dlc that everyone will happily pay for and that’s it.

[rich tundra]

Me with skill issues still love from soft games but I am a Capcom fan too.

[shut wigeon]

What’s your opinion of rise of the ronin

[rich tundra]

I don't know anything about that game tbh but it's made by nioh devs and thats the only souls game that little bit comes close to Dark Souls.

[shut wigeon]

Haven’t played any of the Nioh games but I really enjoyed Wo Long. And rise of the ronin took a lot of things from that game.

[rich tundra]

Dude try nioh 2 it's really good

[shut wigeon]

I will play both niph games they’re on my long list of games

[charred quail]

yeah nioh 2 is the best souls like game currently

[shut wigeon]

Have you tried wonlong

[charred quail]

yes

it's shit

[lost sluice]

isnt lies of p pretty solid aswell?

[shut wigeon]

I thought it was good

[shut wigeon]

Very easy game tbh but I like the world

[lost sluice]

oh i heard it was hard

u must be good

[shut wigeon]

Lies of p tries to be more like Bloodborne

[charred quail]

lies of P was alright, kinda boring

[lost sluice]

ive only played the demo

lol

[shut wigeon]

It isn’t and that’s a bad mentality to have

[shut wigeon]

After completing the demo I knew I had to play it once it comes out

I didn’t put it down until I got all the achievements

[lost sluice]

nice

[rich tundra]

I like lords of the fallen it looks so good

[shut wigeon]

I did 3 play throughs

[shut wigeon]

I’ll buy that as well

So many games to play

We have it too good

[lost sluice]

you must be good at perfect parry or what its called? ive heard people who are used to from games that lies of p doesnt show what moves theyre about to do enough

that it becomes impossible

lol

[shut wigeon]

It’s not like Sekiro it’s very forgiving

[lost sluice]

ah my brother is about to finish sekiro but say lies of p is harder

[shut wigeon]

lol it isn’t

[lost sluice]

he used to hate sekiro aswell and was a diehard fan or rolling or what you do in the other from games

but then one day he said he loved sekiro

idk what happened

lol

[rich tundra]

I want them to make second game or third

Because that game didn't received good reviews

[shut wigeon]

It finally clicked for him

[lost sluice]

i guess

[lost sluice]

i read somewhere that kratos was more of a following dog of zeus in the real mythology than he is in the games

[summer furnace]

Yes

[lost sluice]

some more imagination is always fun tho

[shut wigeon]

Guys

I reinstalled cod ww2

I haven’t played this game since it came out

[summer furnace]

@rich tundra

[shut wigeon]

Guys I swear to god ww2 looks better than vanguard

[lost sluice]

i swear bf3 looks better than even many new games today

[tribal sinew]

too expensive tbh

[rough narwhal]

Sekiro just clicks at some point and then it’s the best game ever, but before that it’s fucking stupid and makes no sense.

sorry for the teeth

[latent moat]

[austere sonnet]

My condolences lad

atleast your not French

[polar wren]

Damn they are review bombing dragon dogma 2

I thought it was about the performance issues

But it's also about the fucking micro transaction

[latent moat]

They didn't even wait a month to release them

[polar wren]

Saying that you can only get one character, you can't delete that character, and you have to pay 1.99 for a new one

Like what

[latent moat]

You can't even have multiple saves

[polar wren]

Deserved

[latent moat]

You can't delete your current save either

[polar wren]

100% deserved reviews

You can't pay that much and have that system

[latent moat]

You have to go into file Explorer and edit the game files to remove the save

[polar wren]

Absolutely bullshit

[latent moat]

It shouldn't be acceptable that this game goes down to 22fps in some areas

[polar wren]

Damn 22fps

Also this 2 dollar for new save/character is a step closer to the 1 dollar reload

I hope it never becomes reality

[summer furnace]

It's optional bro, you don't have to reload

()

[polar wren]

Like is it that hard to not be a scummy piece of shit

This is EA levels of scummy

[next crescent]

even over EA tbh

[latent moat]

Yeah if EA did something half as bad as this they'd be blasted by the Internet 24/7

People seem to be pretty forgiving of Capcom online

[rough narwhal]

why are people hating on dd2?

[next crescent]

micro transactions in a singleplayer that gives you the right to change the visuals of your character

[next crescent]

which you cant change without that microtransaction

[lost kelp]

Capcom

thats everything you need to know

[austere sonnet]

What kind of visuals

[rough narwhal]

eh, gonna call it now, all of those negative reviews can be summed up to things NOT about the actual game

[next crescent]

most of em are actually about the game

[rough narwhal]

https://tenor.com/view/side-eye-dog-suspicious-look-suspicious-doubt-dog-doubt-gif-23680990

[rough narwhal]

im talking minute to minute gameplay, not something like what kind of anti cheat it has or mtx

if bfv was on steam it would have been negative with a lot of people citing "ceo said dont buy" or "robot women in ww2"

are some valid complaints? yea, some no, but giving a general "do not recommend" because of secondary shit is a bit ungenuine imo

(a general problem with steam "reviews" as well)

lol like reading the negative reviews for rdr2 on steam:

"Singleplayer 10/10
Graphics 10/10

Multiplayer 0/10"

conclusions.. do not recommend..

[polar wren]

Here's one

Most of them are on this topic

Plus the terrible performance

[rough narwhal]

who the fuck cares about "p2w" in a sp game..

[polar wren]

The fact that you have to PAY to get a new character with the price of the game is fucking scummy

[polar wren]

The consumer

[rough narwhal]

consumers be dumb

[polar wren]

You be dumb

This is EA levels of scummy

[lost kelp]

Well the game is BG3 but shit

[rough narwhal]

i mean.. thats the same group of people that complain about expensive skins in completely f2p titles

[lost kelp]

Button masher the game

[rough narwhal]

ironically, again, you can simply not buy the items...

[polar wren]

This game is 70 dollars

There should be zero micro transactions

[rough narwhal]

yea citing "the general public" as a reason for anything is usually a weird choice, considering how many stupid people are simply out there

[lost kelp]

80$

[rough narwhal]

eh, im of the camp that the cost of gaming has been stupid cheap for so long and mtx are generally there to compensate for that

[polar wren]

Oh and let's not dodge that YOU HAVE TO PAY A NEW CHARACTER AND CAN'T DELETE THE ONE YOU MADE

YOU HAVE TO PAY A NEW FUCKING SAVE OR MANUALLY DELETE IT IN THE FILES

[rough narwhal]

actually valid complaint if that face value statement is true

dont confuse me pointing out that 90% of the complaints are illogical as me excusing absolutely everything the game does

is 70 bucks and dlc in a sp game lame? yea, but you can again, just not buy the dlc and that alone isnt really worth a "do not recommend" like some of the meme steam reviews suggest

[polar wren]

That's for the deluxe edition

The performance and the pay for new character/save file is enough

[rough narwhal]

those two i agree, but i specifically didnt talk about that and gave an example of what i was talking about

literally first review

[polar wren]

I do like the joke reviews, this one is on the buy new character as that is how much it cost to make one

[lost kelp]

The character creator really blinded us

[rough narwhal]

someone should just make "character creator the game" with how much people seem to care about that

[polar wren]

I think the bigger issue is that you can't delete the save

Well you can but you gotta go into the files and do it yourself, the 70-80 dollar game doesn't have the tools to do it itself

Sea of thieves does have a item that changes your pirate that you can either buy or save up the currency from ancient skeleton or the bp. But you could just delete the pirates and have a new save. No body bitches about that

Oh and it cost the same in sea of thieves, 1.99 for buying it outright, or 149 ancient coins which you could get all in one single ancient skeleton

[lost kelp]

Gamers hate gaming

[polar wren]

Gamers hate buying extra

[lost kelp]

[rough narwhal]

theres a fine line about this though, and commonly gamers are complaining on the wrong side

take the 10 dollar price increase for games, games have been around 60 usd for literlaly like.. 2 decades

even ignorning the increase in production costs/marketting/complexity, game prices generally ignored inflation

now, is selling save files too much? yes, i think everyone would agree on that

but then people complain about random meaningless shit too, its way more complicated than the masses in meme reviews/sites lead it on to be

[rich tundra]

Game is great it's just those microtransaction and launch day performance bro that's it

[rough narwhal]

oh yea.. forgot it only launched yesterday...

[rich tundra]

Launch day performance means a lot nowadays it almost define how the game is which is exactly not true

Like Jedi survivor is a good game but it's performance is terrible sadly

[rough narwhal]

outside of nintendo idk many titles that launch without problems though

(imo just natural given how complicated games are getting)

[rich tundra]

Launch day performance issues are very common with nowadays games

[polar wren]

If they do remove the payment on character creation and most importantly add the ability to delete saves, plus fix performance, the game would receive better from gamers

[rich tundra]

Definitely

[rough narwhal]

idk, those compaints seem like "principle" complaints, which imo is just an excuse to be unreasonable

if someone steals 5 bucks from you, by principle you should do something about it, but its 5 bucks.. thats really not worth getting mad over

(just an example)

[rare thorn]

I think it's also, people don't want a certain precedent set. Single player games should never have gameplay compromised to sell you shortcuts. Paying for extra content is one thing, but when games purposefully make stuff a massive grind and sell you shortcuts it comes across as shallow and scummy. (Not saying that's how DG2 is, I've heard it isnt't)

Those few Assassins creed RPG games I heard were like that

[rich tundra]

Thing is they aren't stealing anything
Don't like it dont buy it
It's as simple as that

[rough narwhal]

ironically that as well.. people act like games steal from them when they literally could choose to not even acknowledge the game exists in the first place

[rich tundra]

Yes tbh man it's not the first time Capcom did this

Devil may cry also has those microtransaction

[polar wren]

EA did this shit with one of their single player games

[rich tundra]

I don't like this but hey at least they aren't making trash games but anyway I just can't justify why you asking money to change character Capcom that's not good

[polar wren]

I forgot which one

[tribal crypt]

I could just cheat in all those items if i really wanted to

[polar wren]

It was a franchise game and it was the third installment

[rare thorn]

I think the initial impression these kinda microtransactions give, is that the game isn't going to value your time, for the sake of enticing you to pay for skipping grind

[rich tundra]

It's rpg bro it's always grindy

[rare thorn]

Whether that is true or not, won't get rid of the impressions.

[rich tundra]

And it's a jrpg

[rare thorn]

Yes but theres levels to grinds. There's grinding, and then there's grinding for an artifical amount of time the devs know people with 9-5's won't want/can't do.

[rich tundra]

Yes man like launch day impression matters a lot

Seriously a lot

[rare thorn]

Especially these days

[rich tundra]

Emhmm

[polar wren]

I remember it was deadspace 3

[rich tundra]

Dead space 3

[polar wren]

It was the one that got hit with the micro transactions back then

It's on sale now btw

4 dollars

Has a total of 12 micro transactions costing 68 bucks. 3 times more than the cost of the base game when not on sale

[charred quail]

you are not allowed to have multiple save files, in an RPG game

It's in this store now

Same with https://www.gog.com/en/game/uncharted_legacy_of_thieves_collection

[ivory onyx]

I totally forgot yesterday was the launch of the PC horizon forbidden west too many things to play right now not sure I can sink my teeth into another 50+ hr sp game atm

[lost sluice]

how did asmongold get a character that looks exactly like himself?

in dragons dogma 2

lol

[charred quail]

lmao

does he smell in-game too

[lost sluice]

haha

asmon is pretty cool

he shut down people who talk out of line and stuff unlike others

[latent moat]

is this some insanely dense satire I'm not getting?

[lost sluice]

idk man i havent watched him all that mutch but he seem to stand up against atleast some bullshit

[polar wren]

He does have some stinky opinions, people tried to cancel him but those never work and it all benefits him

I do like his editor tho

Asmongold may be living among the roaches smelling like shit but he's successful

[charred quail]

he's a grifter

he's a left-learning liberal with a mostly rightwing fanbase

whatever makes money I guess

[polar wren]

Jealous

I would love to be as lazy as asmongold and be rich

[charred quail]

you can just wish you were as rich as him, without the lazy part

I would fucking burn down this house if I see a roach

[polar wren]

Lmao

I'm not that fearful when it comes to bugs

But I am fearful of his hairline

[lost sluice]

his first video was catching a rat from inside his own house

[charred quail]

[lost sluice]

afterall

[charred quail]

he got famous for sharing a picture of his room

[polar wren]

I do find him quite entertaining tbh, unless it's an hours long response to another backlash that does jack shit to his image

[lost sluice]

anyway i didnt mean to start a hatecampaign against him. from what ive seen he seem pretty chill

[polar wren]

I don't mind him, I'll watch his clips from his editor most of the time, and occasionally watch his video

He hasn't done anything horrendous yet other than bad takes and living with roaches

[latent moat]

he eats the roaches in his house

[charred quail]

yeah all he does is having awful takes

intentionally too

[polar wren]

Those things have good protein so valid

[tribal sinew]

Asmon speaks his mind but also is quick to admit when he's wrong

[polar wren]

I don't eat them

[charred quail]

he's like Enders if Enders were bigger than battlefield

[latent moat]

except when he's a part of a charity scam himself

[tribal sinew]

i dont know about charity scam

but on stream he always admitted to when he was wrong or stupid about whatever

[latent moat]

I can't believe people actually look up to him

He's pathetic

[polar wren]

And rich

Pathetic and rich

[tribal sinew]

Why pathetic?

[latent moat]

What's the point of having all that money when you still live like a hobo as if it's ww3

[polar wren]

It's a genius way to save money

[tribal sinew]

i mean im not the biggest fan of the guy, but he's genuine

[polar wren]

Think about it

[tribal sinew]

because his needs aren't bigger than what he has

[latent moat]

that's not called being genuine, it's called being disgusting

[lost sluice]

his food tips peak interest of food gurus who want him in their show. cant be all bad

[tribal sinew]

he earns loads of money but he doesn't need a mansion like Hasan bought for what like 4 million dollars or something

[latent moat]

multiple times people offered to clean his place but he rejected

[tribal sinew]

nothing wrong with that

yeah i mean, his place seems disgusting lol

[polar wren]

Hasan is actually more pathetic than asmongold tbh

[latent moat]

He dumps his waste near his neighbours' yard and it creates a foul stench that he likes to brag about

[tribal sinew]

he is, always speaking from a certain political point of view (lets not get into that) but earning millions

living in mansion

[latent moat]

they're all pathetic

egos inflated to the max

[charred quail]

I agree that Hasan is more pathetic AND dangerous

He pushes actual political shit takes

[latent moat]

They leech off youtubers who pour their soul and heart into their content like lemmino and make tantrums on twitter that being a streamer is actually somehow harder than a 9-5 job

[charred quail]

Asmongold is just "uhh woke is bad"

anyways why do we put these nerds on a pedestal, they are all fucking disgusting

[latent moat]

I roll my eyes everytime someone posts a clip of those stupid streamers on a subreddit I'm on

"look what charlie said guys! soo based!!"

And it's the most safe take ever

[polar wren]

Because we live in a society

[charred quail]

lmao critikal

[polar wren]

Like I get it but it will never work and we are stuck here yelling at a wall

[tribal sinew]

then there's some guys like xQc who literally offers nothing of substance to his streams lol

all he does is spout nonsense which nobody understand, not even himself when he reacts to his own footage

and then he lets chat view stuff and talk to him

[latent moat]

"hey guys huge drama going on anyways I'm a very humble person and I don't care about all this pls buy my gfuel flavour and buy these over-marketed to the hell products, they're so good ok thnx bye"

[polar wren]

Me when I'm questioning why we support lazy shit streamers

[latent moat]

no one understands that guy

he speaks an entirely different dialect of english

[polar wren]

It's always so interesting to watch him

It's like going to a damn zoo and seeing an exotic animal

[latent moat]

Wish meat canyon made more videos mocking streamers

[tribal sinew]

i remember xQc watching himself from some video way back and he was like "what the fuck is this guy even saying, why do people watch this?" lol

[latent moat]

xqc one was gold

[tribal sinew]

genuinely a funny take

[polar wren]

Absolutely

[latent moat]

https://youtu.be/Quhb0RMtfH4?si=jiLoRGdcl3BAVhye

[charred quail]

I believe he used to be really humble like that

[polar wren]

Reminds me of when Sr pelo made fun of story time animation

[charred quail]

dude was donating every dollar he made from streaming since his family is rich

but he got so big and he just changed

he even has an entourage now

just a group of ganggoons following him around

[polar wren]

He's still not a bad person

[latent moat]

Yeah like before he did his face reveal

[charred quail]

yeah he's definitely not a scumbag like most of the other streamers

[latent moat]

I remember him making videos on really niche stuff and making stuff like the WiFi juicer popular

[polar wren]

His content is, ain't broken don't fix it

[latent moat]

Yeah I don't like daily coverings of drama, but it seems like it works out for him

He's alot less egotistical and isn't a total hobo like asmon so I guess he's much better in that regard

[charred quail]

biggest disappointment to me has to be h3h3

dude completely changed into just a douchebag

[latent moat]

You reminded me of them lmao

Oh really?

Shame

[charred quail]

he's still a good person but

[latent moat]

[charred quail]

he has to have his team rein him in otherwise he will say some outrageous shit

he distanced himself from Hasan which is redeeming

there was an old video of him and his wife on a tour around a muslim community and when he heard the prayer bell he was like "that's scary should I run"

[polar wren]

Lmao, if I was in a foreign country I would do the same shit.

I haven't left the US in YEARS

[charred quail]

thing is they were just laughing about it, it wasn't genuine fear

they were mocking the bell

[polar wren]

Now that changes things

There's definitely a stereotype built in

[charred quail]

yeah

[polar wren]

It's not terrible to have a stereotype built in, like it's easy to get one no joke, but it's better to get rid of it by any means

[latent moat]

[charred quail]

silly joke is alright, racist jokes sometimes are even funny, but his wife is from Isreal and they were touring a muslim community mocking their way of life

just poor taste

[polar wren]

Oooof

[charred quail]

as I said he's not a bad person, just has absolutely no filter

[polar wren]

Like Vanoss

[charred quail]

his team had to delete so many vods from their live podcasts because he just said some insane shit

[tribal sinew]

didn't h3h3 do like a 180' recently?

or try anyway

[charred quail]

yeah he distanced himself from Hasan, so at least he's trying

[polar wren]

Surprised the Vanoss gaming crew is still going strong. (Trying to keep gaming in the topic)

Can't say the same with one Minecraft crew

[charred quail]

minecraft crew

[polar wren]

Like it took a month and we got a triple whammy on 3 of them

Is it that hard to not be a piece of shit

Anyway I'll be right back

[ivory onyx]

oh wow thats a low blow man...asmon has seen the sunlight waaay more in his life than enders

[charred quail]

the roach man has seen more sunlight than enders?

[polar wren]

I mean have you seen how pale enders is

[charred quail]

tru

[ivory onyx]

bros lighter than the monitor glow

[polar wren]

You could argue both hasn't gotten sunlight, have you seen asmongolds reaction to the sun

[ivory onyx]

he has done outdoor content though which is i think more than the sperging BF player

[polar wren]

True

[ivory onyx]

or is it the pro gundam player? hard to keep up

[polar wren]

But I can't stop laughing at that clip of asmongold reacting to the sun like it was a flash bang

[ivory onyx]

100% the best part about his clips channel though is the editor shitting on him

[polar wren]

Absolutely

Only reason I watch asmongolds clips over his real videos

[ivory onyx]

"oh god hes stun locked"

[polar wren]

I love the filters that make him more bald

[charred quail]

lmao did activision actually lock a mw3 attachment in warzone mobile

there's a 7x scope that can only be unlocked from warzone mobile

and it can only be used in mw3

[random tartan]

Kek, they said fuck MW22

[random tartan]

Thanks for reminding me. I’m downloading it rn on my phone

[charred quail]

I unlocked it but can't find it in mw3

I'm scammed

[random tartan]

I won’t know till tomorrow when I get home

[charred quail]

warzone mobile is shit anyway

it's literally warzone but looks worse

but there's the multiplayer lite mode

it has shoothouse and some other maps

already cunts sliding around with controllers and meta guns lmao

[random tartan]

It’s mobile tho

[charred quail]

yeah but it accepts external controllers and the aim assist is insane

like twice as much as console aim assist

[lost sluice]

will be nice when someone figure out how to get that aimassist into a keyboard and mouse

[charred quail]

lol

if you turn on auto-fire, you get a little crosshair indicator to let you know when the enemy gets destroyed by the aim assist

it's OP in warzone because with a sniper you can spot people way out of your render distance and it just locks into them

when the crosshair turns red they die

[lost sluice]

my best warzone placing was nr9 i think

im pro

on pc

[charred quail]

talked my friend into redownloading siege

about to turn a new dad's life hell

worse than having his newborn baby

[lost sluice]

ah

well that can be hard

[charred quail]

not as hard as the abuse in siege

[lost sluice]

i remember when one of my friends got a kid. we used to party every weekend. not so much anymore

[polar wren]

Capcom responded, they are doing fixes as expected and adding a feature to restart the game

Ok that's good

[charred quail]

apparently they let a few creators know of the mtx beforehand, and didn't let some of them know

now the one who didn't know have to re-review the game

[polar wren]

Honestly they could make it better and have us make multiple save files

[charred quail]

yeah that was stupid as shit

an rpg with only one save file

jesus fucking christ

[lost sluice]

lol

atleast u can throw npcs around

[charred quail]

i will wait until they fix the game before getting it

[polar wren]

Hold on the paid dlc can be also obtained ingame?

[charred quail]

apparently it runs like ass on stronger hardware than what I have and they don't have plan to fix it soon

[lost sluice]

i dont think my cpu can get more than 30 fps from what ive read. so i wont be getting it

[tribal crypt]

its running pretty good on my system

but i got a 7800x3d and 7900xtx

[lost sluice]

i got a ryzen 5800x3d

[tribal crypt]

[charred quail]

yes

[polar wren]

I was led to believe that it was only obtained via the paying the dlc

Well I can knock off one thing I hated

[lost sluice]

someone told me that everything u can buy u can slowly grind ingame

if thats true its fine

[polar wren]

Yeah

[charred quail]

very slowly

[polar wren]

If you can get everything without paying, although slowly then that's fine

[charred quail]

it's basically paying for a shortcut

still scummy, just a little less

[polar wren]

I'm fine with shortcuts

[tribal crypt]

literally useless shortcuts

[charred quail]

it's the first game I see fextralife not liking

[lost sluice]

didnt fextralife viewbot on twitch and have to stop their service there

[tribal crypt]

they got views through their site having a twitch embed

[lost sluice]

i havent seen them on twitch anymore

only on youtube

[tribal crypt]

so theyre probably still doing the same thing

just with youtube instead

[polar wren]

What's fextralife

[lost sluice]

a couple of people who played through games, make wikis about them and more

[polar wren]

Oh a gaming guide like kotaku

[charred quail]

yeah they are just a good source of info

i couldn't give a shit about them viewbotting lmao

[polar wren]

Unlike kotaku

I joke

[charred quail]

the main reviewer is very biased towards big AAA rpg however, but he gives good build guides nonetheless

[lost sluice]

i really like cas from fextralife

[polar wren]

Actually kotaku is changing how they make their guides

[charred quail]

people made the viewbotting out to be a big deal but like, who give a fuck? They don't even make money off twitch, they make money from the sponsor deals and their website

[lost sluice]

my brother call them criminals who fake viewers for sponsors that they dont have

[charred quail]

oh no big company hogging the spotlight from the small streamers

lol ok

[polar wren]

Skill issue streamers

Can't beat viewbotting companies

Me on twitter for a brief check: huh No Russian is trending I wonder if this is some call of duty news or people are nostalgic.
Checks:

[latent rock]

kotaku going bankrupt is a good thing

[polar wren]

Always

[lost sluice]

lol

[polar wren]

Kotaku stinks

[latent rock]

vice is gone and buzzfeed what a great time to be alive

[charred quail]

buzzfeed news being gone is awful because it was an independent news source that wasn't funded by any evil corps

buzzfeed made all those shitty videos so they could fund proper journalism

[latent rock]

lol no they where a garbage outlet

[charred quail]

you are confusing the regular buzzfeed with buzzfeed news

[latent rock]

all the same to me

[latent moat]

Buzzfeed unsolved was great

[charred quail]

even wikipedia considers buzzfeed news a reliable source

they won 2 pulitzers

[latent rock]

none of that means anything to me i wont get to much into becuase of the rules but i have lost all trust in the media

[charred quail]

lol ok

[polar wren]

Would've been easier if you said that off the bat

[latent rock]

No. For many, that's now how this works.

The problem is simple: When you want to sell something, there has to be a need for it. It's easy for us to surmise that everything in a MTX list (take, Dragon's Dogma 2 for instance) is…

there's an immersive travel system via a horse carriage but it's bugged and soft-locks your game when it does

Game with the most realistic looking cars model 😳

I love the lighting in GT7

ddosing is illegal here

Not sure what the spring event is though

Since I chose to restart

One of the developers made a behind the scenes version.

[buoyant granite]

but did you play stardew 1.6

[empty ivy]

Not yet.

I know I have to give it a go.

[buoyant granite]

I really recommend it

can't stop playing stardew rn

[elfin lark]

Looking forward to it coming on console

[polar wren]

Microsoft is a G, most of the decisions on the games come from those who make it, Microsoft just green lights it and funds it with it's large pile of cash

They did that with psychonauts 2

[stiff panther]

that's so COOL

that's a weapon for me

[polar wren]

Oh forbidden horizon is on PC

Let me guess the brainless ponies are bitching about it with zero valid arguments

Like always

[stiff panther]

[polar wren]

Forbidden horizon a ps exclusive shadow dropped a few days ago on steam

[stiff panther]

uhh yeah i know

who would be bitcihng about it?

[polar wren]

Sorry horizon forbidden West.

The twitter ponies

I heard the game got cracked on PC and they are sucking that argument dry

[random tartan]

ponies always complaining about sum

[polar wren]

They say PC gamers don't buy games despite horizon forbidden West is 4th best seller on steam

They say some really dumb shit

[random tartan]

kek

[ivory onyx]

it got cracked...already?

[rich tundra]

35k all time peak isn't bad
I checked Forza motorsports all time peak and it couldn't even cross 5k on steam.

[random tartan]

forza is also on the xbox app on pc, hence game pass

[polar wren]

Yeah I wouldn't buy it if I had game pass

Rare is going to get some serious cash with season 12 of sea of thieves

[rich tundra]

Forbidden west also released on epic games

[polar wren]

Nobody cares about the epic game store

Steam is a monopoly for a reason

It's a straight up better alternative compared to that shit show

[rich tundra]

Even then 35k isn't bad

[polar wren]

35k for a shadow drop mind you

[rich tundra]

Yep good numbers

It released in between 2024 most anticipated games rise of the Ronin and dragons dogma 2

Horizon 5 also on Xbox app and it's all time peak was 81k and motorsports is also on Xbox app but it couldn't cross 5k kinda sad man.

[polar wren]

Dogma 2 almost got close to helldivers 2

[rich tundra]

It's a gem

[polar wren]

290-190k

[rich tundra]

Just sprinkled with awful stuff that Capcom shouldn't have done

[polar wren]

Yeah, glad they are finally adding the delete save. It's so fucking stupid still to not add the ability to create more save files

[rich tundra]

Reviews are now mixed which was mostly negative on launch day

[polar wren]

That's what happens when you fix your game

[rich tundra]

It only took 1 day from mostly negative to mixed

I like that they acknowledged it on first day

[polar wren]

I mean are they going to ignore the massive amount of hate

What they did was damn stupid

Glad they are fixing it

[rich tundra]

It was so unnecessary to add those things in a sp game

[polar wren]

Also paying for skins in a sp game will always feel wrong.

Like it just makes the skins you work for in game unrewarding or unappealing

And it's worse when that game is in first person and you can't see most of the fucking skin

[rich tundra]

Skins is fine if it's not messing with gameplay

[shut wigeon]

@random tartan new emote. I like the song.

[random tartan]

Bro you like to play fortnite
It's a game when you like it you must be prepared to get hate for it.

It's just a weird situation

[charred quail]

is fortnite even a game at this point

it's more like a game engine

you can find anything on there

[rich tundra]

It's an engine then from now on bro

[charred quail]

they even have a rocket league clone on there after they bought rocket league and killed it lmao

[rich tundra]

We got frostbite engine
They got fortnite engine

[rich tundra]

Rocket league dead?

Wow

[rich tundra]

I love how much gaming news you tell me

[tribal crypt]

Epic Games is pulling a roblox

[shut wigeon]

Wait how did they kill rocket league

[charred quail]

it has been on life support ever since epic bought it

removed community content

made the game extremely user unfriendly

more mtx

[tribal crypt]

Let the kids build your games

[charred quail]

it's just trash

[shut wigeon]

Haven’t played rocket league since it came out on Xbox xD

[charred quail]

I've seen some fun games on fortnite

the official lego mode is fun too

[rich tundra]

I don't play it but sad for those players man

[charred quail]

it's not valheim but it's good with friends

[rich tundra]

Because it was popular thing

[shut wigeon]

Fortnite keeps evolving. Latest unreal engine tech will always be featured first in Fortnite. Same happened over a decade ago when Epic was making Gears of War.

[random tartan]

no its not, its more like a UE5 game hub tbf

at this rate copy pasta from roblox

There is a new captain 🇺🇸 and black panther game coming

Made on unreal

yeah I think it will be mid lol

I’m not a huge fan of Marvel anymore. Feel like it’s oversaturated. Too many superhero movies and tv shows these past couple of years

If only rocksteady made a single player only suicide squad game 😦

Fuck live service

Why didn’t WB listen? People said no don’t make it a live service game years prior to its release.

When it leaked and stuff a year before release people said “no we don’t like the direction this is going we don’t want it” they didn’t do a 180 instead they went ahead with it and wonder why it did so poorly. Do they do any market research?

[tribal crypt]

Probably wouldn't have been any better doing a 180 a year before release

[rich tundra]

Want it to be good

[charred quail]

live service works if they commit to it

knowing wb they will drop the game after 3 seasons

[lost sluice]

oh ye xbox and keyboard are supported , not playstation . which is weird since the game is on ps aswell

i think elden is meant for controller use tho

what

2tb game?

what is this virus

we will need several petabyte ssds in the future

[summer furnace]

Consumer market ssd is capped to 8tb

[lost sluice]

ye, things can change fast tho

[summer furnace]

Like the pcie

[summer furnace]

Who replaced bobby kotick's role?

No one did huh

[random tartan]

Do you have a 2tb SSD?

[latent moat]

His PR side is pretty bad compared to Phil's. But he did steer PS in a solid direction this gen.

But yeah everyone called him a prick because he didn't give a crap about backwards compat or any other pro-gamer features

[charred quail]

I didn't follow him but the last thing that caught my eyes was when he visited the London office before his retirement and then 5 days after laid off the entire office

[latent moat]

I feel like that must've been pressure from Sony to shut them down

Make PS more profitable with live service.

He was completely right to gear PS Studios to be more that, but he executed it horribly

Bungie is a mess, new head needs to clean house over there

[charred quail]

still very scummy to visit them, take fun and somewhat emotional photos with them, then not even a week later fired all of them

[latent moat]

Oh yeah absolutely

[charred quail]

they were bidding him farewell

he took that personally

[latent moat]

Should've done what MS did with toys for Bob and let them go indie

[summer furnace]

Well tfb still has agreements with MS, I doubt Sony would sign ones with london studio, but idk

[elfin lark]

I ain’t the only one leaving this office bitches

[rapid summit]

God damn… I encountered a troll player in helldivers 2 for killing me and killing my teammates, I decided to kill that troll for how many times and kicked that stupid troll out of the mission.

[polar wren]

Wait does rise of the ronin look like dogshit or am I getting information wrong

Cause it looks like fucking DOG SHIT

Oh boy, looked into it more and yeah apparently it does look like dogshit

Wow

That's sad

It seems it plays well and has a good story

I'll give it that, being a good functional and story driven game

But graphically, it's embarrassing

Ay it has no micro transactions, and I do love the idea of it's story

[latent moat]

Ghost of Tsushima Lite then

[polar wren]

Yeah basically

It's bad enough that it could probably run on the PS4 very well

[elfin lark]

Lmao

[latent moat]

[sacred iron]

If only I’d picked the vandal over meming with the ghost

Ngl it’s been fun getting into valorant

But I’ve mostly stuck with tdm cause it’s just fun

I don’t do well in the classic one life environments, need to build up to it

Well that was mildly neat

[polar wren]

Seems like v.50 for lethal company is coming sooner

Like in a week or a few weeks

[dim trench]

Minecraft is pretty lit these days. Ngl

Fuck the new IW team. Like I’ve been saying

[charred quail]

GN had to buy 4 copies to test the game because Capcom bans your account when you switch hardware

[random tartan]

I seen vids of people having problems running DD2

So many of them, it’s hilarious 😂

[charred quail]

I can't reach 60fps with my hardware

big sad

[short umbra]

and that's why I buy console games on disk

[charred quail]

the game can't even reach 30fps on ps5

[short umbra]

Good thing I didn't buy it.

Honestly I'm shocked that BF4 handles better on my 360 than it does on PS4

how the hell is it optimized better for 7th gen than it is for 8th? I'm not kidding the vehicles.

The vehicles work better on the 360.

[charred quail]

different builds of the game iirc

[random tartan]

360 is better for games in general kek (last generation era consoles)

[short umbra]

And for whatever reason the 'next gen' version is a henious downgrade.

[short umbra]

the 360 is arguably the best in terms of library, interface and handling mechnaically speaking.

the Kinect compatible variant that is.

I'm pulling 30-40 frames, 1240p, AND have more solid input registration than most PS4 games.
