The only game on steam I've seen reviews from people with a GPU that wasn't 4090 having a better time than people running 4090.

#

"Oh woe is me. I can't play the game at 150 FPS"

obtuse reef
#

You only need around 60-80 fps

#

Guess the 4090 people were left alone in the dark

I just thought it was hilarious to see the only negative comments coming from seemingly smug elitists

#

Even their negative reviews are full of smug

obtuse reef
#

I’m at high graphics too, and I still get 60fps

Just goes to show, you can take the dumb out of shit, but you can't take the shit out of dumb.

I used to love alphagetti

#

An unhealthy amount of love for alphagetti

#

Correction

#

Alphagetti

#

That was my jam for years

obtuse reef
#

Those’re Spaghetti-Os

dry copper
#

It just reminds me of my unhealthy love for alphagetti

#

My mom would grocery shop and buy a few cans of alphagetti....

#

I'd eat the alphagetti myself

#

Hell...I'd sneak the shit

#

My sisters haaaaaated it

#

It being....my stealing the glorious alphagetti

#

Then one day I read the ingredients

#

Never ate another can. Ever.

I only just started to forget how much the run and walk speeds annoyed me in skyrim

You run almost twice as fast as anyone you'd follow and walk almost half as slow

Like what sadistic fuck thought that was a wise move?

As one of the top replies says

there's something wrong with this and I can't figure out what it is

It's missing the bass, the synth guitar is lowered priority in the sound, they added sound fx to all the characters actions and who the fuck is murphy

X-Men, also known as X-Men: The Animated Series, is an animated superhero television series which debuted on October 31, 1992, in the United States on the Fox Kids Network.[5] X-Men was Marvel Comics' second attempt at an animated X-Men TV series after the pilot, X-Men: Pryde of the X-Men, was not picked up.[6]

A Marvel Studios-produced revival...

In the original, all the sounds are in synch with the music

In that remake, they are not

and who the fuck is murphy

I think it's still good.

Damn. I was looking at how big the file installation would be for a mod to give all NPC programmed learning...

Just the voice files alone are 16 gigs

Something tells me if your voice file is 200mb a piece, your "AI" isn't learning. It's a vocal library of recordings.

Here's a nice Minecraft world seed if anyone wants it it still works and I have recently created a survival world with this seed

Little details lol

#

Remember worrying starfield would kill nms... i return to nms sometimes, but i almost forgot that starfield exists. Hello games took the W here.

inland oasis
#

never expected starfield to kill NMS. lol

#

Cant kill legends

edgy viper
#

Starfield was best NMS ad

bronze wind
#

I'm basically just waiting for them to fix Starfield so I can play it thru. But kinda gave up on that wait a while ago, I think the problems are too foundational

obtuse reef
bronze wind
#

they've put out some decent fixes so far but it's been very high level stuff relative to the bigger problems lol. so I don't really have any hope for it.

#

things like poor writing for quests and bad cohesion between basic systems aren't things that are ever really re-done in any game.

#

took me too long to realize it was sorta crud so i still own it, so i might just hop into it in like a year and see what it's like.

obtuse reef
#

They’re not going to change anything major

#

They pretty much left it up to modders

obtuse reef
tame cairn
#

well i have ghost of tsushima now..

#

probably gonna play it in kurosawa mode this time

bronze wind
#

It was kinda crazy seeing nms comparisons for starfield pre release. Like it was already stated it was gonna be more hard scifi and nms isn't really an RPG lol. Not that starfield is very much one either but it intends to be

tame cairn
#

NMS is just a space sandbox

#

the comparison isnt even there

#

just "space"

obtuse reef
#

What pisses me off is that Starfield isn’t even the first “Space Fallout”

bronze wind
#

Exactly

#

To both things lol

obtuse reef
#

Outer Worlds not only did it better, it had a similar aesthetic to Fallout 4, and it was developed by Obsidian

bronze wind
#

Outer worlds was good, not great, but didn't really need it to be.

tame cairn
#

Outer Worlds is pretty good, except for the ending

#

better than starfield though for me

obtuse reef
#

The DLCs are funny, because you can complete them a lot sooner than the ending and then you can completely breeze through every late game area

austere lance
#

Outer Worlds>anything Bethesda has made since Skyrim

obtuse reef
#

It’s not that bad

bronze wind
#

I love stuff like that. Been replaying dragons dogma in prep for 2 and it has a similar thing lol

obtuse reef
#

Reading reviews you’d think it was pretty mediocre, but it seems a lot better than more games Bethesda has shit out

bronze wind
#

Bundled "dlc" gear some of which is meant to be sold for a huge initial boost to skip the slow beginning

#

Yeah it kinda bummed me out seeing the negativity about it afterwards

austere lance
#

Obsidian>Bethesda

obtuse reef
#

Indeed

austere lance
#

God I can't wait for Avowed 😫

bronze wind
#

I get it wasn't the in depth RPG wanted from obsidian or whatever but it was good and I really enjoyed the visuals.

#

Same

#

Even just for the sick box art lmao

#

Reminds me of annihilation

obtuse reef
#

The guns managed to look more organic and still look pretty good

bronze wind
#

Yeah plus the scifi concept

obtuse reef
#

Starfield did not manage that

#

Starfield gun design is not good

tame cairn
#

bethesda doesnt know how guns work

#

example: fallout 4

obtuse reef
#

Obsidian gets closer than Bethesda

tame cairn
#

im still bummed about fallouts new weapons

obtuse reef
#

I’ve heard that Fallout 4 is a soft retcon of the series

bronze wind
#

Starfield has some cool looking weapons but too many of them fall into the "looks cool but sucks" trap, or they don't feel like they look

tame cairn
#

and its bad.

obtuse reef
#

Yup

tame cairn
#

i still like fallout 4, its goofy
but its better with mods

#

which means the game isnt that good lol

obtuse reef
#

I’ve said this about Terraria, but if you need mods to make a game good, it’s not a good game

bronze wind
#

yeah there's def a difference between "good game with good mod support for replayability" and "need these mods to enjoy it"

tame cairn
#

they basically said f all the accurate weapons and just made their own

#

and most if not all would not even function

bronze wind
#

fallout 4 weapons were pretty lame, the "pipe gun" aesthetic never ever satisfied me

#

I loved the modification system but it limited itself too much

obtuse reef
#

Most games I have minor-moderate grievances with, but I will not buy Fallout or Starfield simply because they don’t seem enjoyable

tame cairn
#

the pipe guns definitely wouldnt function

obtuse reef
bronze wind
#

even outside of that they just look dumb imo

tame cairn
bronze wind
#

and unfortunately a lot of post apocalyptic games take on a similar style now

tame cairn
#

really the only one i could see working is the pipe revolver

bronze wind
#

rusted brown with tubes and duct tape or whatever

tame cairn
#

everything else looks like it was thrown together by a 6 year old

#

the mag wouldn't feed correctly

obtuse reef
bronze wind
#

hey my niece made a very beautiful hand outline for her dads birthday card and she is 3

lol

Or the fact that if the metal is too low quality the gun will just fall apart

pale trellis
# inland oasis Cant kill legends

Welp not exactly kill, just make it irrelevant, which can be bad for games that run on online servers. Working base building? Cool starships? The ability to build your own starship? A long story with characters that you interact with, more human technology and a more refined combat system then nms? The vision of it sounded like all i ever wanted from nms, but well, we know how it turned out

tame cairn
#

"Assault Rifle" is a meme

obtuse reef
#

Starfield guns look like you fire them and you break your shoulder

pale trellis
#

The game is alright. Its an rpg that works and is fun. It just isnt anything more than that. People keep saying is broken, nothing happened in the hours i played it.

tame cairn
#

another thing

#

fallout 4's guns are just..

#

massive...

#

to make up for the power armor

#

but it wasn't worth it lol

#

everything looks like it was made for power armor only

obtuse reef
#

Also, doesn’t the minigun use 9mm ammo? Or something like that?

tame cairn
#

it shoots 5mm iirc

obtuse reef
#

That explains why it doesn’t do damage

tame cairn
#

the minigun is just bad though

#

they give it to you when you start the game

#

so they cant make it op as hell

obtuse reef
#

I think most miniguns irl use 5.56 or larger calibers

tame cairn
#

it was just dumb

tame cairn
obtuse reef
#

Also, frequent misconception, miniguns don’t take time to spin up

#

Pretty much instantly from 0rpm to 900rpm

tame cairn
#

bro, imagine 50 5.56 rounds coming at you in a second.

obtuse reef
#

Yeah, the A-10 uses 30mm ammunition

#

Usually HE or depleted uranium

tame cairn
#

jeez

obtuse reef
#

Miniguns are bananas

#

Also, minor gripe about video game gun design, Valve needs to fix the models for the guns in CS

#

Several guns do not actually have a hole for the bullets to come out on the model

#

Namely the PP-Bizon and the MP7

#

Also, the R8 doesn’t have visible bullets on any model but the stock model

#

Even though the chamber has holes for the bullets

#

So the R8 is basically shooting air

mental rose
#

M134 Minigun (fires 7.62mm NATO)
M61 Vulcan (20mm)
GAU-8 Avenger (30mm)

obtuse reef
#

Miniguns are terrifying

#

Only downside to them is the fact that they overheat really quickly

bronze wind
#

those are macrocannons

tame cairn

jesus that last one is tearing you apart

well really they all are

but my lord

#

last one's on a plane

#

that's why it's so big

obtuse reef
#

Most planes have guns built around them

mental rose
obtuse reef
#

The A-10 is the opposite

mental rose
#

Brrrrrt

obtuse reef
#

It is a plane built around a gun

tame cairn
#

death

obtuse reef
#

The gun is so powerful that the plane will fall out of the sky if it was fired for too long

#

Oh, and the Russians made a stronger version

#

The recoil is so powerful that it would shatter running lights

thorny python
#

because why not.

obtuse reef
#

But you could use it to make a pretty cool jet pack

bronze wind
mental rose
#

There's also the fun fact about Thunderbolt, how it has to be braced before removing the gun for maintenance. The plane would fall on it's tail otherwise. 😄

thorny python
obtuse reef
#

Because fuck everything directly below you

thorny python
#

that would be a very dangerous jet pack.

obtuse reef
#

See: above statement

thorny python
#

heh heh yeah

obtuse reef
#

I remember this fact about a WWII fighter, the Wildcat. It had the ammo in the wings, and it would jam up during maneuvers. Nowadays, the problem is we’re outputting so many bullets we had to design a plane to hold the gun

thorny python
#

I used to play simple planes. I mounted the customizable cannon on the bottom.

#

that's how I learned of that games broken physics

obtuse reef
#

I play Trailmakers with my friends every so often, my buddy made a plane powered by miniguns

#

He slapped like 30-40 on the wings facing backwards

#

It moved surprisingly fast

about BG3, this was more than expected. Larian likes to pour all their sweat into a project and then move on to a different one. DLCs to milk some more cash isn't their thing

Also Hasbro has already said due to success of BG3 "they see players want more DnD games" and are already working on more.

I'm already scared

And Hasbro / WOTC forget that players don't need DnD games, they need companies who put some passion into their projects

How are you all enjoying paying £2.50 to fast travel?

sleek cloud
#

glad i didn't preorder

thorn dawn
#

😄

#

Doesn't look like a bad game but the death by a thousand mtx cuts is clear

sleek cloud
#

even without the microtransactions, the poor performance alone has swayed me from buying the game

#

shouldn't have to murder the city NPC's just to improve FPS 😄

thorn dawn
#

true, that sounds patchable though - but just another example of a game where people who buy it in a years time in a bundle are going to just get a massively better experience

sleek cloud
#

happens with almost every big game these days.

Monetization of game mechaics in singleplayer full price game is not ok.

Single player games should be entirely free of monetization outside of DLC and the game itself

#

Nope. I do not want to buy an outfit. I do not enjoy spending money on games that I do not have to

quaint escarp
#

still, having mtx is kinda meh but can live with

#

seems like everyone is overreacting to pay for convenience

inland oasis
#

its like what assassins creed did. u can pay to skip parts of the game

#

your not forced to nor need to

#

now i blame my kinda old pc but even with moderately lower(ish) settings, i only get 25-40 fps max...its pretty rough in performance for me

quaint escarp
#

actual reasons to dislike are performance and not having multiple save slots or ingame way to wipe ur char

looks like the npc cpu usage will be patched later

true, but it's worth calling out explicitly

obtuse reef

Yeah, Helldivers gets away with more because they haven’t been explicitly horrible

#

They have made a lot more steps to ensure their players have the most fun possible than most other companies

inland oasis

like nerfing guns in a pve game XD

Helldivers also didn't launch with 8 dlc's, and two different currency purchases

obtuse reef
# inland oasis like nerfing guns in a pve game XD

They’re trying to kill the minmaxers. I hate people who turn any game into something that only math teachers can enjoy. Also, those people tend to kick players who run with anything but the optimal load out, which can ruin some of the experience

#

But my question is when is the laser gun getting hit markers

thorn dawn
#

Also I'm not saying that the japan game awards are corrupt but they game DD2 an award in 2023

#

Was putting together a compatibility guide for playing the game under Linux/Steam Deck which required me to use various Proton versions. Apparently each of these counted as an individual PC and triggered the Denuvo tamper protection. Now I can't play at all on any of my systems for the crime of trying to help more users enjoy the game.

u can earn that in the game

you can even change vocation

yes everything in the game can be changed without paying

people crying that ferrystones or whatever and portcrystals are rare clearly didnt play dogma 1. i think you got like 2-3 portcrystals....theyre intended to be rare

#

and after the dlc dropped you get an endless ferrystone

tame cairn
inland oasis
#

so everyone got used to fast travelling

quaint escarp
#

its people that glance at reddit and steam and start crying

inland oasis
tame cairn
#

yea

inland oasis
#

i had that many ferrystones

obtuse reef
tame cairn
#

people just dont have the attention span basically

#

and when they dont, they'll see the mtx stuff and whine

inland oasis
#

"aw man i actually have to walk somewhere ugh 1/10 game"

tame cairn
#

I have to ADVENTURE in an adventure game?

inland oasis

"i have to grind in this grindy game? nah take money so i dont have to play it"

thorn dawn
obtuse reef
tame cairn
#

most likely they didn't play the first i guess

inland oasis
#

its OPTIONAL.

tame cairn
#

because its completely optional mtx

obtuse reef
#

You do realize that most humans are extremely illogical creatures

inland oasis
#

holy christ how can u blame a company for YOU choosing to make a purchase that isnt necesary

#

xD

thorn dawn
#

Easy.

#

It's fair to be annoyed that you get a better experience from the game by paying.

#

That's it.

inland oasis
#

better is subjective

tame cairn
#

You don't have to

#

its just faster

inland oasis
#

cuz to me with or without it its the same expeirience

tame cairn
#

less attention span people do that

inland oasis
#

being annoyed by it is a self created problem

#

like being mad at how someone plays a game

thorn dawn
#

Not at all.

#

Some people have limited time.

inland oasis
#

like me?

#

lol

obtuse reef
#

But again, the mere option offends people. I don’t think I can properly describe it, but it comes off as more predatory to have a basic game mechanic skippable with money

tame cairn
#

i can only play when im off

#

i have limited time lol

#

2 days out of 7

quaint escarp
#

people are willing to pay for borderlands guns

thorn dawn
#

No one is mad that you can pay. They're mad that the game gets better if you do.

tame cairn
#

i wont buy a single mtx

inland oasis
#

it doesnt GET BETTER

obtuse reef
inland oasis
#

its the same product

tame cairn
#

you have the same things

obtuse reef
quaint escarp
#

u pay for convenience

tame cairn
inland oasis
#

better is dependent on what you as a player want

#

cant please everyone

thorn dawn
#

Making a game that's deliberately more frustrating to play out of the box should be a crime.

tame cairn
#

well im going to be entertained without purchasing mtx

quaint escarp
#

if you want to pay to skip a lot of stuff or grind bc u rather enjoy the more meaty part of the game go ahead

tame cairn
#

have fun all

quaint escarp
#

its not paywalled

inland oasis
#

once again its optional to do. being mad theres a CHOICE to do something is purely self inflicted

thorn dawn
#

No one is mad at the choice.

#

You're inventing that.

quaint escarp
#

all the stuff in the dlc seems to be tacked on after the game was done

tame cairn
#

so what are u mad at? the option to?

quaint escarp
#

this is a corpo choice

tame cairn
#

i dont get this debate

quaint escarp
#

sucks but u can play the game without ever touching it

obtuse reef
tame cairn
#

everything in the mtx can be earned

inland oasis
tame cairn
#

ur just purchasing to get it faster because you dont have the attention span to earn it

quaint escarp
#

people are mad bc there is a choice to buy in game stuff

thorn dawn
#

It's not a job.

inland oasis
#

i wanna decide how you play your game! waaahhh

tame cairn
#

good day adam

thorn dawn
#

I'm cool with that

quaint escarp
#

if the mtx was locking actual stuff or better stuff then yeah i would be mad

inland oasis
#

if it was content you NEEDED that was better

#

yea

thorn dawn
#

All caps doesn't make your argument more convincing

inland oasis
#

but i literally can do anything someone pays to skip can do

#

soooooo who cares

quaint escarp
#

people would be mad if elden ring added mtx to buy runes

obtuse reef
tame cairn
thorn dawn
#

Neither does inventing things I've said

inland oasis
#

im gonna shove a stick in my bike spokes then blame the damn bike for crashing me

quaint escarp
#

the game is enjoyable without paying more money

#

so thats all that matters to me

#

theres no fomo

thorn dawn
#

I don't disagree I'm it's enjoyable, but it's a single player game - what changes if they just got rid of the DLC and increased the drop rates?

#

Other than no one having to grind and Capcom's profits dropping

quaint escarp
#

bc its already balanced to what the intended rates are

#

fast travel was always frowned upon

thorn dawn
#

Currency purchases/accelerators in single player games are the "convinience fees' of the video game world

quaint escarp
#

the mtx is for those that think the game is unplayable without it

inland oasis
#

i never thought dogma was a fast travelling game. it was just a mechanic you "could" use

#

balanced by the limitations

thorn dawn
#

Cause at the end of the day, in 2 hours someone will have cracked denuvo and people on PC will be able to add all the currency they like

quaint escarp
#

i believe its a non issue until they start paywalling mechanics u cant earn ingame

quaint escarp
thorn dawn
#

nah they use save/binary encryption

#

saw it in a review

#

can't even mod the game at the moment

quaint escarp
#

oh ouch so save editors are not possible yet?

thorn dawn
#

nope

#

won't take long, but for the moment, locked down like it's console

quaint escarp
#

theres pawns you can rent out so its reasonable

inland oasis
#

dogma 1 lets you rent online players pawns and such, and you can honestly just use cheats too

quaint escarp
#

if someone has a maxed out pawn itll prob kill the game

inland oasis
#

given enought time dogma 2 will get the same way ill bet

thorn dawn
#

Should all just play a good game like rimworld

quaint escarp
#

rimworld is an okay game

inland oasis
#

do enjoy rimworld

thorn dawn
inland oasis
#

fine its bad

quaint escarp
inland oasis
#

theres a mod for that

quaint escarp
#

dont think so unless its new

quaint escarp
#

yeah im assuming it does not work with other mods

thorn dawn
#

depends on the mod, but yes

quaint escarp
#

i wouldnt even mind 2.5d

thorn dawn
#

I was hoping stranded: alien dawn would scratch that itch but uuuuh

#

It's a bit shallow

#

Also they sacked all their community managers so I think the game is dead now

quaint escarp
#

like triangle strategy or octotraveler

thorn dawn
#

saving that for rimworld 2

quaint escarp
#

most of my rimworld mods prob broke

#

have kept the game updated

thorn dawn
#

100%, though it's not as bad as last time

#

1.4 had quite a few engine changes, 1.5 isn't so bad

quaint escarp
#

yeah but i have a decent amount and on steam deck and pc

thorn dawn
#

but yes, only about 100 of my mods have been updated so far

quaint escarp
#

theres beta channels isnt there

thorn dawn
#

yes

quaint escarp
#

yeah ill prob roll it back

thorn dawn
#

oh

#

42/233 left to update

#

few of them will never be updated

#

wall lights are now canon, e.g.

quaint escarp
#

let me check to see if the game will run with the new update

it's mostly true

vanilla rimworld is brutal

@quaint escarp I've bought similar shortcuts when I didn't have time to play something, I knew I would get the shit if I had the time to play but I dropped a fiver instead because fuck it they gave me the option.

#

Nobody has a gun to my head when I spend money

quaint escarp
#

yeah sucks the market is moving towards this

shadow tartan
#

Pretty sure the stuff that they were selling for the RE remakes is the same shit

#

Except that character slot shit

#

That's BS

thorn dawn
#

It makes me super sad that it's become accepted that instead of making games fun for everyone (there have been some recent releases that are fantastic with 'build your own difficulty settings' though) they make it so they're fun for most people, but people with limited time have to pay

quaint escarp
#

yeah the re stuff was stuff you couldnt ever obtain in game

thorn dawn
#

Multiplayer it's kinda tolerable, but that shit should not fly in single player offline

thorn dawn
#

Nothing but a cash grab - the company produce nothing for the money

quaint escarp
#

see if the progression stuff was nerfed from the first dd then yeah its scummy

#

but this mtx is just a tacked on option

thorn dawn
quaint escarp
#

on another note my rimworld loaded on my steam deck with no issues

thorn dawn
#

noice

quaint escarp
#

lets see if the save is broken tho

shadow tartan
#

I'm not arguing but I do want to know because, ya know
What did they put behind a pay wall that removes the fun of the game?

thorn dawn
#

they didn't paywall anything but there are 21 different accelerators available

thorn dawn
#

no idea about BF3

quaint escarp
#

idk if im in the minority but i dont see the issue in that unless its some sort of multiplayer competitive game

shadow tartan
shadow tartan
quaint escarp
#

battlefield 3 is a multiplayer game assuming thats the game u meant

#

or battlefront

shadow tartan
#

Yeah but a shortcut is a shortcut to me, the only edge you get is unlocking the weapons early.
You can't pay for skills.

thorn dawn
#

then cut it by 90% to drive mtx sales

shadow tartan
#

Yeah turn the QA tools off innit

thorn dawn
#

same as ubisoft "we've found players enjoy hunting for around 20 chests. Great, add 400!"

shadow tartan
#

I can't comment on that, obvious reasons

thorn dawn
#

😄

#

It's obvious

shadow tartan
#

🖕🏾

thorn dawn
#

There's no good reason for the AC games to have that many chests with 5 coins in each

#

other than driving map pack sales

shadow tartan
#

Drop rates always get nerfed and then raised if the game gets stale

#

0.1% chance is my favourite

thorn dawn
#

yes, stick out a QOL update when the DLC sales dry up

shadow tartan
#

EZ

quaint escarp
thorn dawn
#

can't comment as I didn't play either

quaint escarp
#

ill be playing it later so ill check

thorn dawn

@dry copper so much was cut from that game anyway, it's a shadow of what it should have been

quaint escarp

iirc

dry copper
#

workshop stuff is subscription based

#

If the owner of the item delists it, the subscription is cancelled.

#

If they revert it and update it to be useless, the subscription breaks the item

thorn dawn

but not deployed

If it's delisted and the game updates it might not work anyway

will be fine
