#

im just saying sprawling metropolis was cool to a point but when 99% of it is just a backdrop

#

the city on the city planet in SC is smaller than the city on the temperate one xD

#

as far as parts you can go to

#

i guess city planet had a bigger starport

bronze wind
#

yeah SC also runs like ass and has a massively horrible UI for literally everything lol

sand marsh
#

Not gonna lie, kind of excited for elite expansion

#

looks good

willow crypt
#

It's pretty amazing how diverse the architecture and the interiors are with Star citizen City planet though

charred badge
#

@willow crypt reminds me of everspace 2 mixed with mirrormoon

full pivot
#

im ngl the coolest part of SC to me was riding the train system >.<

bronze wind
#

I'm excited to see what there is to do, if it's just landing to scope out a mine or something that you deploy probes to that's pretty boring

#

given the current gameplay loop of ED that wouldn't surprise me eihter

charred badge
#

my biggest issue with SC is time needed to get to the ship

full pivot
#

yeah the anomalies rn are just "Scan this and read"

sand marsh
#

Frontier is good on the technical side... gameplay tough.. ughh

#

And sound design

full pivot
#

time needed to get to the ship? you mean having to ride the train to the starport and call it for 5 minutes

sand marsh
#

i wish NMS ships sound as good as Elite

full pivot
#

yeah that's annoying

bronze wind
#

I wish Elite ships controlled like NMS ships but then it would kinda remove the interest for a lot of people

#

I just hate the standard power distribution crap

full pivot
#

and that's IF you didn't die cuz if you died and respawn on the wrong planet 30 minutes to get your ship back

sand marsh
#

Elite is more on the "realism" side

willow crypt
#

I would play elite if it wasn't a space Sim

#

Or at least it didn't have space Sim controls

bronze wind
#

well we don't actually have starships like in elite lol so there is a lot that is definitely made up

full pivot
#

im fine with that its just exploration is scoop sun, look at map, jump

bronze wind
#

but I get people like having the DOF

full pivot
#

scoop sun, look at map, jump

sand marsh
#

yeah, it can take some times to get used to the controls. But i find them satisfying after you learn them

bronze wind
#

just annoys the fuck out of me when anything other than "fly straight" is required

full pivot
#

oh SORRY scoop sun, run discovery scanner, look at map, jump

bronze wind
#

I played for a few hours and spent the first couple hours just horribly frustrated

#

I can see why people get a HOTAS but I dont have an interest in that

willow crypt
#

Same

full pivot
#

go for like 2 months real time and then try one Neutron Star jump when the game isn't feeling friendly get stuck in an overheat death and lose all progress

sand marsh
#

They need to work on the gameplay

bronze wind
#

well it's fun for a good amount of people

sand marsh
#

on the technical side ED is gorgeous

#

but gameplay ughh

bronze wind
#

if they can separate the planet exploration from the current loop that would be a good step

full pivot
#

ive lost huge spans of exploration data twice and i've never touched the game since

#

to the SAME problem

balmy plaza
#

Honestly once you get used to the flying, the ED flight mechanics are pretty easy and a lot more fluid than NMS

full pivot
#

have you done jump overcharge?

balmy plaza
#

It just takes a while to get into

bronze wind
#

I don't have hours and hours to dig into it though, is the issue

full pivot
#

its anything but easy and fluid

bronze wind
#

I work now so quick to learn is important

#

I also just personally don't have a high tolerance for that stuff, especially when the gameplay that I get into after learning isn't interesting to me almost at all

full pivot
#

i guess i could "stay in the bubble" but i don't wanna trade or fight people

sand marsh
#

i criticize NMS alot but imo it's the best space game out there

full pivot
#

get blown away randomly by some guy that's put 5000 hours in

sand marsh
#

it has planets, underwater

#

animals

#

plants

bronze wind
#

the only thing I'd like from other space sims to have in NMS is the ability to do ascend/descend so I can manually land my ship on planets

#

feels very clunky right now

full pivot
#

precise landing would be p cool for screenshots too

bronze wind
#

but yeah like I have issues with NMS but it's honestly the only game doing what I'm looking for in terms of a sci fi game right now

sand marsh
#

yep

full pivot
#

zug showed a pretty cool voxel one earlier

bronze wind
#

yeah I think he's posted it before, I remember it looked very neat

full pivot
#

i would like the NMS clone market to become bigger xD

#

because people always categorize it with ED and SC but i've never really seen it that way

#

ED and SC are Freelancer and X-Universe type games

sand marsh
#

for me Spore is closer to NMS

full pivot
#

SC is made by the same guy ik

sand marsh
#

and not ED or SC

full pivot
#

Spore always makes me sad

sand marsh
#

why ?

#

wasted potential ?

full pivot
#

i was more hyped up for Spore than any other game haha

#

and wasted potential and knowing that it was unfinished and a victim of lack of creative freedom

sand marsh
#

yeah,, 😦

full pivot
#

like underwater was going to be a thing but they wanted a specific release so they left it out

#

and then the only stages that even felt like a game were creature and space

#

the others were like pls don't make me do that again

sand marsh
#

yeah, kind of felt that way

#

long time since i played it last

full pivot
#

galactic adventures was cool but super limited too

willow crypt
#

I hope there's a bigger AAA studio working on a procedural space game focused on more arcady mechanics and planetary exploration

sand marsh
#

Agree. I hope more studios saw what HG tried to make

#

and expand that concept further

charred badge
#

Doing a quasar jump in elite scares me

sand marsh
#

the idea of exploring a "limitless variety" universe is so fascinating

willow crypt
#

Or at least a universe filled with variety created by a ton more artists

charred badge
#

Or a universe filled with more base parts

willow crypt
#

Nooooo

#

Ban van van

sand marsh
#

exactly. Make it has humanly varied as possible

charred badge
#

Can we please get a third type of prefab room

willow crypt
#

No

#

I'm really looking forward to Star citizen even if people here don't really care for Bethesda RPGs

#

Well brain fart

sand marsh
#

you are confusing them ?

willow crypt
#

Star-

#

I can't think now

charred badge
#

Starfield

sand marsh
#

yeah, star something

willow crypt
#

Ok thabks

sand marsh
#

YEP

charred badge
#

Bethesda would do SC better

bronze wind
#

i like bethesda RPGs, of course they are kind of samey but they have a lot of customization typically which is what I look for

charred badge
#

Kinda wish Nintendo would make a space sim/survival game

willow crypt
#

I think they're really good at telling stories in their main and side quests

bronze wind
#

well there was that toy based one that came out

sand marsh
#

imo Bethesda does the open world the best. Every location is unique. No copy pasted stuff

bronze wind
#

but it was more of a star fox clone and wasn't made by ninty

sand marsh
#

and almost every location has it's own quest

charred badge
#

Damnit clyde

bronze wind
#

pretty much every type of structure is copy paste lol, just different layouts. Like every dungeon is exactly the same minus a few unique spots

sand marsh
#

exploring the world in fo4 was fun AF

willow crypt
#

I always preferred exploring outside. Dungeons do get repetitive

#

Plus I feel dread when I realize it's a really big dungeon

charred badge
#

Bethesda is good at creatively reusing assets

full pivot
#

besides its crafted

charred badge
#

Like their main game engine

bronze wind
#

I would always start a quest but then end up walking in one direction just finding random stuff

charred badge
#

🔥

bronze wind
#

it's what I do in HZD now

willow crypt
#

That's the best part

charred badge
#

How do I get rid of the clyde alert on mobile

willow crypt
#

Idk

full pivot
#

"Bethesda would do SC better"
like fo76? 😛

willow crypt
#

Who's Clyde

sand marsh
#

lel

charred badge
sand marsh
#

Clyde from destiny ?

bronze wind
#

we'll see if they get starfield right

full pivot
#

discord i think

willow crypt
#

Oh

charred badge
sand marsh
#

ohh lol

willow crypt
#

Considering starfield is Todd Howard's dream project, I don't think he will rush it

#

It'll be good

bronze wind
#

they've been pretty clear on not revealing much and that it's a ways off

willow crypt
#

Maybe another year or 2

bronze wind
#

I could see it being 2022 at the earliest

willow crypt
#

I think there is evidence of them preparing their marketing campaign

full pivot
#

its crazy to think 2022 is only 2 years away xD

bronze wind
#

I don't really trust any sources on Starfield stuff cause fans are pretty ravenous and notoriously reachy lol

sand marsh
#

i just hope they don't pull the paid mods crap again. And no MTX too.

bronze wind
#

will depend on if it has MP

sand marsh
#

even if it has MP.

bronze wind
#

I can see it having MP content given that it's a space game

willow crypt
#

Creation club

charred badge
#

Is Elite Spacelegs still on track for 2021?

willow crypt
#

Most likely will have it

sand marsh
#

yep. Space legs early 2021

charred badge
#

Nice

sand marsh
#

and atmospheric planets too

willow crypt
#

What about space claws?

charred badge
#

If it's good, I'll probably delete SC

sand marsh
#

and they showed some flora too

charred badge
#

It takes like 10 minutes to take the subway to my ship to launch in SC, and then I fall out and die

sand marsh
#

not gonna lie, pretty excited

willow crypt
#

Star citizen snow planet is pretty impressive

charred badge
#

Yeah, except they forgot the HUD is supposed to be visible at all times

willow crypt
#

Too hard to see?

#

Computer man was talking about the HUD issues as well

charred badge
#

The HUD color is a pale blue

#

And they only recently added so much as a higher contrast when looking at light

willow crypt
#

Dat not gud

charred badge
#

I've been killed more by not being able to see my altimeter than enemies

bronze wind
#

The UI in general is just miserable

willow crypt
#

Simpler is always better

charred badge
#

There's a lot of info on holograms over the dashboard

#

That just get jumbled in the cockpit kibble

willow crypt
#

but it's realistic

bronze wind
#

It was probably the least intuitive thing I've ever used lol

charred badge
#

No. No real company would make this garbage for their craft

bronze wind
#

yeah IRL people would actually need to pay attention to usability to prevent issues

charred badge
#

Uh, I think I have a screenshot or two

bronze wind
#

it doesn't always live on your arm but there is just way too much happening on one screen

willow crypt
#

Yes

charred badge
#

here it is in the optimal conditions

#

in a simple small ship

#

here's a snow planet

wet warren
#

That’s...why?

#

Couldn’t they put a semi-transparent background behind the text to make it easier. Or just give the option to change the color

#

Or both

bronze wind
#

i think you can change the font color

sand marsh
#

alpha game seanbomination

#

since 2012

charred badge
glossy kestrel
#

Not even an Alpha... more like a Tech demo 😛

wet warren
#

☝️

sand marsh
#

since 2012, can you believe that ?

#

freaking 2012

glossy kestrel
#

and 300M $

#

lets not forget tht...

sand marsh
#

YEA

bronze wind
#

ok i need to ask a question

wet warren
#

Tbh I would very much love to play SC if it was actually finished but being in alpha for 8 years just turns me away

bronze wind
#

@charred badge are you able to reposition HUD elements

willow crypt
#

The movie Avatar took 15 years to make

bronze wind
#

because who in the fucking universe would put a bright pink chat over an entire UI element

sand marsh
#

ngl tough, it's a very, very ambitious project

#

that's for sure

full pivot
bronze wind
#

Avatar took 15 years and the result was a pretty generic plot with nice visuals

glossy kestrel
#

As a very long term EVE Online Player (11 years) Id love Scam Citizens to dethrone EVE... to become the best Space game out there... I really do...
But after all this time and all this funding and still no core game is ready... nothing changes my mind its a scam!
Maybe in 10-20 years it will be complete and ill then buy it!
(my personal opinion ofc)

dry copper
#

Avatar the movie or Avatar the last air bender?

bronze wind
#

definitely the movie

full pivot
#

i would never play EVE haha

sand marsh
#

EVE is more a click and point game

#

with spread sheets

bronze wind
#

yeah like stellaris always looks neat then I remember it's point and click

willow crypt
#

Lol would be hilarious if the live-action avatar The last Airbender movie took 15 years

winter yew
#

I'm so noob in Star Citizen

full pivot
charred badge
#

I never know what to do in SC, besides do a couple missions

faint fjord
#

What game is that

full pivot
#

and i immediately wished they'd put the weapons on the NOSE

winter yew
#

@full pivot You make me wanna install SC again

full pivot
#

not the wings

charred badge
#

well, attempt do do missions

full pivot
#

@faint fjord Star Citizen

bronze wind
#

I have the Everspace 2 alpha and the flight/combat is really nice. Planets are cool but very limited rn

faint fjord
#

I think i have that

dry copper
#

@willow crypt lol, your PHP tiny thumbnail kinda looks like Kristen Schaal

#

Clicking on it ruins the illusion

charred badge
bronze wind
#

it looks like a pug to me

winter yew
#

fuck it, i'm gonna install SC again

dry copper
#

Sucks to be an old potato.

full pivot
#

creepy af

charred badge
dry copper
#

@full pivot So you spawned into walmart after closing

faint fjord
#

I dont have de geym

full pivot
#

with no exits

#

i stepped into the void and fell into the infinite

faint fjord
#

Who here play kerbal space program or space engineers

willow crypt
#

That's kinda a strange realization @dry copper , and you're sorta right tbh

full pivot
#

im super excited for KSP2

faint fjord
#

Yesss

#

Colonies

#

In stock game

dry copper
#

@willow crypt If it's any consolation, I find Kristen Schaal kinda unconventionally attractive.

full pivot
#

ngl im hoping for cool stuff from ED and SC too cuz i just want more space games

#

beyond all the "they have bad stuff"

willow crypt
#

In a way I suppose

faint fjord
#

How many mods you use in ksp

full pivot
#

too many

sand marsh
#

i feel that the X game series are kind of underrated. X4 looks really good

dry copper
#

KSP?

faint fjord
#

I use 110

full pivot
#

i do the whole make its realistic thing

faint fjord
#

I main restock

#

As my core

dry copper
#

Kerbal Space Program?

full pivot
#

all the science, the life support, the aerodynamics

#

yeah

faint fjord
#

Yes

#

I dont like usi

dry copper
#

You try to keep a game about alien peanuts ....realistic?

faint fjord
#

Yes rss

#

Its 10x the size

full pivot
#

one time i had to turn the CO2 scrubbers on for 30 minutes at a time for 4 real hours so my little peanut could survive his return trip

#

i forgot solar panels and batteries were low

dry copper
#

Yikes

faint fjord
#

Oops

dry copper
#

Return from what, the moon?

full pivot
#

yep

faint fjord
#

I havent been to duna yet

willow crypt
#

Random, but I think Nintendo Showcase is today

faint fjord
#

Legit i mean

willow crypt
#

Maybe last campfire news?

bronze wind
#

Oh yeah could ve

full pivot
#

i coulda let him die but where's the challenge in that

sand marsh
#

doubt it

dry copper
#

Man I hope last camfire is better than it looks.

faint fjord
#

Ive been to the mun and minmus many times but duna never

willow crypt
#

It looks good it looks like a 4-Hour story-driven experience

full pivot
#

ive never been to duna either; mostly cuz i kept starting over

#

cuz update = mod break = lost save

faint fjord
#

I also try to have atleast 500m/s deltaV spare

#

1.10 looks cool but no mods work

full pivot
#

nah nail biting

faint fjord
#

I play 1.8.1

#

Lots of cool mods are stuck there

#

Bcs lack of development

dry copper
#

Don't get me wrong. It doesn't LOOK bad...but I am hoping to be impressed and as is I'm just....meh. Do you know how much it's going to launch for $ wise?

full pivot
#

i just stopped playing until KSP2

faint fjord
#

Me too

#

Its gonna be 60$

bronze wind
#

It doesn't look like a game that shows well, seems like it'll be primarily carried by the story and stuff

full pivot
#

hey that's one magic card in some circles

dry copper
#

$60 for a game thats only going to have like 6 hrs of content?

faint fjord
#

And man do i hate their parent company

willow crypt
#

I assume TLC will be under $20

bronze wind
#

i doubt it's gonna be $60

full pivot
#

Avacyn was like 50-something

sand marsh
#

oh man, mortal shell looks so goood.

bronze wind
#

i played the beta, combat was kinda rough

faint fjord
#

Ksp 2 will be 60$ at launch

bronze wind
#

the trailers show you fighting one on one which is slightly more bearable lol

#

oh we're not talking about ksp 2

faint fjord
#

What gane are we on now

bronze wind
#

or we weren't lol, that explains the confusion

#

you can keep talking about that, didn't mean to overlap

full pivot
#

combat in ksp2?

faint fjord
#

Space engineers anyone?

bronze wind
#

we were talking about the last campfire

full pivot
#

OH

#

now im confused fuck

willow crypt
#

I assume the last campfire will be around $15

faint fjord
#

New physics update is looking fine

willow crypt
#

Developed by 2 people

#

And sound from Paul weir

bronze wind
#

2 people plus some help from another studio I believe

dry copper
#

I prefer to mix games up and imagine a kerbal space campfire.

willow crypt
#

Lol

faint fjord
#

Launch fire to the moon

bronze wind
#

but also yeah @willow crypt the showcase is in about a half hour

faint fjord
#

The moon apes need to evolve

willow crypt
#

No u

full pivot
#

i need to go back through Mass Effect and start Banner Saga

#

esp since NMS doesn't wanna work

winter yew
#

Yikes

#

When does the Nintendo thing start

sand marsh
#

imagine mass effect story telling + a infinte universe to explore like NMS

#

dream game right there

#

i remember mass effect andromeda wanted to make proc gen planets

#

but they scrapped it

charred badge
#

you can't really have mass effect storytelling from procgen

wet warren
#

A space game with the gameplay of a finished SC, the variety of concept NMS, and the scale of Space Engine

#

👌

sand marsh
#

oh man

full pivot
#

probably not possible with current tech

#

and certainly not runnable

charred badge
#

And, honestly, I really miss beefy games that still have a definitive THE END

wet warren
#

Of course

#

Can dream though

full pivot
#

theyre apparently having trouble with Earth in microsoft flight sim

charred badge
#

instead of the current trend of endless open world games that just go until the player gets burnt out

#

completely trashes that rush of completion when you see the credits

wet warren
#

Yeah but all those environments are using a recreation of just about everything on earth with that

charred badge
#

when can I fly over NK that game

full pivot
#

i just also want more original things like Death Stranding

wet warren
#

The game I mention would be of course procedural which would take much less than handcrafted planets

charred badge
#

I want to see what it looks like

full pivot
#

not sequel the 4th

charred badge
dry copper
#

@charred badge The biggest problem with these games that seek their immortality, they promote games as a service and undermine their own content creation integrity

charred badge
#

yup

dry copper
#

EA would be only too happy to have games that never end, so they can endlessly monetize them

#

They ree like a prepubescent colic that people keep stealing their con-job

full pivot
#

i just want a science based space game

#

no trading no combat

#

or if it were in there it'd take the backseat for once

#

and it'd be discouraged

#

like Star Trek

dry copper
#

A space game with no motivation?

#

NMS?

full pivot
#

see that's why it'll never exist

wet warren
#

I just want an exploration based space game myself

full pivot
#

gamers have to kill things to care

charred badge
#

star trek constantly has combat

dry copper
#

I love exploration

full pivot
#

in TNG they avoided it whenever possible

charred badge
#

and yet constantly wound up in combat

full pivot
#

constantly?

lime pike
#

currently downloading mortal shell

charred badge
#

because ratings

full pivot
#

they were not constantly in combat

dry copper
#

You know, I think that obsidian space game could have DLC made for it to that end.

full pivot
#

Outer Worlds was boring

charred badge
#

What? It's a better FO4

full pivot
#

Fallout is boring

#

so is TES

dry copper
#

What do you like about space?

full pivot
#

theyre all the same thing

willow crypt
#

Outer worlds is getting a gorgon DLC

lime pike
#

youy know what was really good? fallout 76

#

play that 15 hours a day every day

silver sparrow
#

The Elder Scrotes

full pivot
#

Scientific discovery and exploration

#

the wonder of alien places

dry copper
#

That reminded me of a game just now

#

There are a couple in fact

lime pike
#

fallout 76

full pivot
#

ancient machines and artifacts

wet warren
#

15 hours? That sounds concerning at that point

willow crypt
#

I've always found the fallout universe more interesting than the elder scrolls

full pivot
#

the closest a game ever got to what i want in a space game happened in 1993

silver sparrow

(2077 when)

willow crypt

Three space sim games I think might be interesting.

I think failspace might be less combat but not sure

so.. microsoft flight simulator

omg this is hilarious.

I have to get friends

if people want to watch

oh wow

subnautica on switch

sand marsh
#

yooo nice

bronze wind
#

Early next year

winter yew
#

That card shark dude was creepy lol

bronze wind
#

yeah was a little weird lol

#

i like how a lot is releasing later today

winter yew
#

Like he didn’t wanna be there almost

lime pike
#

subnautica on switch why?

bronze wind
#

For people who will buy it on switch I would imagine

raven frost
#

why not?

bronze wind
#

like what kind of question is that lol

raven frost
#

big game, lots of people like it

#

lots of people have a switch

#

put game on switch

#

mone

balmy plaza
#

So I tried monster hunter world again. Now I remember why I didn't like it first time round. I don't think there's a single aspect of the game I find remotely bearable

#

Can't stand the voice acting, character design, anything

#

And the combat too

#

Might be an unpopular opinion idk

lime pike
#

why would you buy like a 5 year old game on switch

#

if you played subnautica you probably are bored of it by 2020 i'd imagine

bronze wind
#

It's not just for people who have already played it

#

Also portability is a selling point for some

wet warren
#

Subnautica is still fun for me to this day

lime pike
#

ok but subnautica below zero isnt out for switch?

bronze wind
#

It's also coming out

#

They announced at the same time

arctic thistle
#

does anyone know any games that use proc gen and have nice bright artstyle?

lime pike
#

terraria

#

starbound

arctic thistle
#

played those

wet warren
#

Probably because Below Zero is not done yet

raven frost
#

astroneer?

arctic thistle
#

more of an adventure/landscape games similar to what NMS og vision was

bronze wind
#

well it was announced for switch also lol

wet warren
#

And what Zoid said

arctic thistle
#

astroneer seems nice

raven frost
#

well no astroneer isn't procgen

lime pike
#

zero is basically cancelled

raven frost
#

nvm

lime pike
#

Astro beer

#

Very meh game

wet warren
#

Since when was Zero cancelled?

#

It’s still being developed

lime pike
#

Never saw anyone play that for more than a couple hours

bronze wind
#

so it's a meh game based on you watching people but not you actually playing it

lime pike
#

didn’t you hear

bronze wind
#

It's not cancelled he's just trolling

wet warren
#

Probably because not all of the content is finished for development yet 😛

lime pike
#

development has slowed down and they had to reboot all of development

#

don’t you remember when they scrapped the whole story and said they were remaking it

bronze wind
#

that was like a year ago lol

wet warren
#

Yeah and the new story is better imo

lime pike
#

okay and there has been 1 update since then

#

They have been making good progress since then

lime pike
#

Which talking about slowing development

bronze wind
#

Yeah and they literally just announced it's coming out on switch lmao

#

Like what point are you making

crisp sparrow
#

and isnt Astroneer's dev team even smaller than HGs?

charred badge
#

MegaMan Zero?

#

Phantasy Star Zero?

raven frost
bronze wind
#

not sure Sohail, looked around the same size

lime pike
#

oof

bronze wind
#

at least during launch for both games

crisp sparrow
#

MegaMan Zero?
why need Megaman Zero when you can have 9 Heroes

winter yew
#

I was digging Astroneer but once we hit 'end game' it was moving along really quickly.

bronze wind
#

it's more fun with a friend

winter yew
#

and now my friend's laptop is dead so I'm going to have to restart.

raven frost
#

it's miles better with multiplayer

#

playing it solo makes me hate myself

winter yew
#

because she can't turn her laptop on or it just shuts off. It's not overheating, but there's something causing it to just flatout shut off.

raven frost
#

bad battery?

wet warren
#

Tbh I love the ocean so Subnautica is always fun to explore

fluid hare
#

I think going to a professional is a good idea.

winter yew
#

either bad battery or mobo or something, but she's had this gaming laptop for like 3 years and played it heavily, even cleaned out an entire cat's worth of fur out of it the other day, was running great until something else started to cause it to crap out.

raven frost
#

hmm

winter yew
#

it's one of those that has an internal battery

raven frost
#

could be no post then

winter yew
#

well it boots to windows

#

sometimes will last a few minutes, sometimes an hour

#

then just shuts off

raven frost
#

weird

#

I imagine it does this even on a charge?

winter yew
#

yeah

#

she thought it was a bad AC adapter (a 230 watt one for the thing which is expensive apparently)

#

the laptop itself is some brand sold through Microcenter called Powerspec

#

so its kind of difficult to source parts for it

wet warren
#

Tbh I should redownload Astroneer since I have game pass again but I’m so busy playing all the other games they have for offer 😩

fluid hare
#

I think getting a definite answer before getting the parts is a good idea.

winter yew
#

yeah

lime pike
#

@wet warren fallout 76 is on game pass 🙂

bronze wind
#

kinda sucks you need XBL for it though.

lime pike
#

you do?

#

on pc?

wet warren
#

I’ve played it and it was fun for a bit. Not my kind of thing though

lime pike
#

its basically no mans sky with more killing

bronze wind
#

If you use the windows store version yes you need XBL

wet warren
#

Tbh I didn’t think I would get so addicted to Dead Cells

#

And they just released another update to

winter yew
#

ok sooo

#

she tried running it only on AC without the battery, still shuts down, so its something else

#

probably something bad in the motherboard tbh

austere lance
#

Finally gonna play the current gen version of Bioshock Infinite

#

Then play the DLC's for the first time

winter yew
#

I told her that she is better off just saving the headache and buying a new pc cuz replacing parts on the laptop is gonna lead to more headaches and more money spent than it would cost to build a new desktop.

lime pike
#

infinite was disappointing :/

bronze wind
#

I liked it, been a while though

#

Tried to play through Bioshock 1 again a couple months ago and it was just sorta annoying

fluid hare
#

It’s the most stable beta, dammit.

#

Oh, wrong infinite.

austere lance
#

Bioshock 2 is my fave, I liked Infinite when I first played it on 360 tho

wet warren
#

Wasn’t Infinite supposed to have a proc gen city or something?

austere lance
#

No idea, it's the one with the sky city and creepy religious cult tho

wet warren
#

Yeah

willow crypt
#

bioshock 2 just didn't innovate enough and felt like Bioshock 1.5

#

if i had played bioshock 2 first, i'd probably say i liked it more than 1 as well

austere lance
#

It's fun replaying this and seeing all the foreshadowing for the end

balmy plaza
#

👌💦 💦

worn jacinth
#

that sounds great

austere lance
#

Lol, Bioshock and its "lambs"

#

I wonder if the fourth game will have one

wet warren
#

So yeah I like Minecraft’s survival over creative. Though creative is still fun to mess with

crisp sparrow
#

after playing terraria it made me think why do I enjoy survival anymore

#

though it seems like it will get better soon, the combat update snapshots look interesting

wet warren
#

Yeah I’m interested in the combat 2.0 changes

rigid haven
#

Hope they make axe good again love my axe

willow crypt
#

is it a combat overhaul?

#

or just minor combat additions

wet warren
#

Overhaul

willow crypt
#

this far in, i'm surprised by that

wet warren
#

Reworking many things to make use of other tools and make it less of a pain then combat 1.0

willow crypt
#

huh.

wet warren
#

A lot of cool stuff they’re doing

#

We haven’t seen all of what they might do keep in mind

raven frost
#

hasn't mc's combat been reworked like 3 billion times in the last 2-3 years

willow crypt
#

terraria

crisp sparrow
#

no it was just done once

#

in 1.9

raven frost
#

I swear every new update combat feels different somehow

willow crypt
#

now am confused

crisp sparrow
#

just minor fixes or something

willow crypt
#

thought we were talking about Terraria combat overhaul

crisp sparrow
#

lol no, Minecraft

willow crypt
#

oh

crisp sparrow
#

back in 1.9 they changed combat but those changes were Java only, bedrock didnt get them

#

now they want a unified combat system for both Java and Bedrock

wet warren
#

That was the one that split the community. This new one they’re trying to make both sides happy

willow crypt
#

free or paid

wet warren
#

Free

crisp sparrow
#

all updates are free

wet warren
#

It’s going to be in a future update

willow crypt
#

might jump back in one day

crisp sparrow
#

ye, dunno when it will come though

wet warren
#

And it’s supposed to make it a bit more accessible to

cinder vessel
#

Minecraft combat has never made sense to me

#

Even after changes

crisp sparrow
#

its a simple point and slash combat

cinder vessel
#

It's still, why is this here

crisp sparrow
#

what's the complication

cinder vessel
#

It feels bad imo

#

And doesn't add anything

wet warren
#

It’s mostly an optional thing anyway so I don’t mind

willow crypt
#

MC Dungeons 👌

cinder vessel
#

except at night in survival

crisp sparrow
#

same now that you can almost get everything in peaceful mode now

wet warren
#

Night in survival is easy

austere lance
#

MC combat is still "point and spam the button", what do the reworks even do

wet warren
#

It’s good they gave that option for peaceful players though. Wouldn’t have access to certain things otherwise

crisp sparrow
#

its a simple rework

cinder vessel
#

MC combat is still "point and spam the button", what do the reworks even do
@austere lance exactly, lol

crisp sparrow
#

right now its "point and timed spam the button like a rhythm game" on java

#

but the bedrock one is the old "point and hold auto attack"

#

so they want to add both now

wet warren
#

It’s supposed to be an improvement over the current system anyways so I’m all for it

crisp sparrow
#

aside from other changes like attack reach, how shields are controlled, and hunger

#

ye I dont like current combat much, auto attack sounds cheese enough for me

#

and the reach

rigid haven
#

Let me use the axe on bedrock cowards

willow crypt
#

bedrock cowards are the lowest cowards

cinder vessel
austere lance
#

LMFAOOOOOO

willow crypt
#

oh jeeze

#

why would they do that

wet warren
#

That figures

cinder vessel
austere lance
rigid haven
#

Wait fucking

#

It's out NOW???

lime pike
#

what is

austere lance
#

Yee

rigid haven
#

BOTH Spiritfarer and Manifold Garden???

#

Yooooo

lime pike
#

is it for pc

austere lance
#

Imma try Spiritfarer on Game Pass

rigid haven
#

I saw the broadcast a bit ago but forgot it said it'd be out this soon

austere lance
#

@lime pike Yes

rigid haven
#

I was very fucking hyped when they showed the Hades 1.0 reveal

#

Zagreus is too hot man

crisp sparrow
#

never heard of Spiritfarer

#

I dont think I'll like it, I dont want to say goodbye

#

I am not a goodbye person

wide kestrel
#

The cat in the beginning of the trailer looks really cute.

willow crypt
#

thanks

winter yew
#

ok ok, no mans sky is great. but i just dicovered star citizen and i feel like im cheating on this game but idc

silver sparrow
#

you discovered gold under your house and bought star citizen

austere lance
winter yew
#

@winter yew do you play it

#

yes

#

should i get it? is it really as great as it looks

bronze wind
#

watch some gameplay first

#

I tried and it was pretty horrible

#

poorly optimized, not much to do, buggy, etc. But some people swear by it somehow

winter yew
#

"not much to do" its not a game where you should depend on what you can do. you make your own story, you do what ever you want. and its in alpha ofc there will be bugs...

#

its more free and rp based

#

which is what i love

bronze wind
#

well it's been in alpha for years, and there isn't really enough freedom to RP very much. But if you're strapped for cash maybe just wait until they do another free fly.

winter yew
#

its only 45$ its not expensive at all. its the price of a normal ps4 game

bronze wind
#

it sounds like your mind is made up, idk why you're asking at all lol

winter yew
#

I have an RTX 2080 Ti and even i get frame drops and is not running too great

#

this is a game for high end systems only

#

ya ik, i have a 2019 gaming pc

#

it can run crazy craft. so hopefully it can run this lol

#

wait what lol

#

I have RTX 2080 Ti and i9 with 32 GB Ram and i only get like 40 fps tops

cinder vessel
#

"not much to do" its not a game where you should depend on what you can do. you make your own story, you do what ever you want. and its in alpha ofc there will be bugs...
@winter yew it's in alpha so there will also be a lack of ability to do things at all so.

winter yew
#

it does look really good though

#

ima get it, ik there will be bugs, but ima support the idea

cinder vessel
#

just uhhh don't get suckered into the buying ships with real money stuff

winter yew
raven frost
#

it's pretty but there isn't much to do

winter yew
#

Yeah it really just looks good

#

@raven frost The game that is gonna look good and be amazing is Cyberpunk 2077

raven frost
#

eh, I'm not getting my hopes up

#

judging by the descriptions of people that have played it I'm not entirely sold that it's really gonna do anything spectacular

winter yew
#

true

austere lance
#

Cyberpunk=Deus Ex with a massive budget and a lot more people working on it, I'm just going into it with that mindset 😆

winter yew
#

Ok, the whole there isnt much to do after a bit. You can literally say the same thing about nms

bronze wind
#

It's different lol

#

Most of the things to do in SC aren't fully realized, are frustrating to do, or just aren't finished

winter yew
#

No its really not... you complete bounties, you do missions, you fight pirates. You explore planets.

lime pike
#

SC is a game I refunded twice

winter yew
#

because its in alpha

bronze wind
#

for many years

winter yew
#

Ok

#

So

bronze wind
#

you've made up your mind lol no need to try and convince me

winter yew
#

The forest was in alpha for a long time aswell

#

And its one of my favorite games

lime pike
#

I refunded SC 5 years ago. Then refunded it 2 years ago

winter yew
#

The game is what YOU make of it. Its your story, its mostly for roleplayers and people who are imaginitive. Dont buy it because you expect amazing gameplay and story

#

Its a player run game

lime pike
#

I would love to buy it if there was more than just a space station when I played

winter yew
#

Idk why you only found that

#

There is so much more

lime pike
#

and when I did play a free weekend it was just trash people crashing into each other

winter yew
#

lol

#

Thats player fault not the game

raven frost
#

as someone who's pretty much owned the game since its early days and looking at it now I can pretty much say the game's overstayed its welcome

lime pike
raven frost
#

Sure, it sounded nice 5-6 years ago when I was in high school but shit's changed

austere lance
#

Tfw Elite Dangerous is gonna beat Star Citizen to the punch with a smaller budget and a much bigger universe next year when it finally adds boots on the ground FPS stuff (and for the record, I despise ED. But I'll like it a helluva lot more than Scam Citizen once it adds the boots on the ground stuff)

bronze wind
#

eh even the space legs thing might be kinda minimal but I'm hopeful. Though I won't be able to get past the flight model

raven frost
#

when SC's done, I'll likely have a family to take care of

bronze wind
#

if it releases and is good I'll think about it, I just don't see it being something I enjoy lol

austere lance
#

@bronze wind It's full on NMS space legs, they showed it off in a vid today

raven frost
#

oh?

bronze wind
#

I mean that's not totally accurate

raven frost
#

where, I want to see it

austere lance
bronze wind
#

we have no idea how accessible it is, how many types of planets there are, what there is to do beyond use a tool on plants, etc

austere lance
#

You can just land your ship wherever, get out, and explore

bronze wind
#

All the stuff they showed was flat planets with grey or brown stone though. I wish they would have shown some more interesting stuff, though I'd guess maybe those aren't available to see yet.

austere lance
#

It's not a new game, lol. It's not changing how many planets there are and randomly locking billions of them 😆

bronze wind
#

I understand that lol

winter yew
#

my ship in SC

bronze wind
#

but if walking around is just always going to be "big desert" that's not very fun

austere lance
#

It's the same thing as Horizons rn, where you can land on any solid planets. Difference being now you'll be able to hop out and explore

#

They showed flora they're working on at the end of the vid

bronze wind
#

I'm not saying it's bad, I just think there's more to do in NMS so it's not the best comparison. But maybe they'll announce more stuff to do.

austere lance
#

Actually I was comparing it to SC 😆

glass plinth
#

Lol

#

SC is such a argh, I love you game world game, but i hate the lack of a game story

bronze wind
#

yeah I just meant when you said "full on NMS space legs", but technically that's accurate lol

glass plinth
#

Generally speaking ED releases with very spartan game updates. What you see in the video is generally what you get, with very few exceptions.

bronze wind
#

it'd be cool to see if they add thargoid stuff to planet surfaces

glass plinth
#

The features added are usually difficult to do on a engine level, but very simplistic in use. So you end up very underwhelmed.

bronze wind
#

though I am never going to play long enough to see that

glass plinth
#

I only have 2k hours in ed.

bronze wind
#

oh that's all

austere lance
#

NMS is different cuz it's goofy, which I fully appreciate. I was comparing ED after the FPS update to SC and laughing cuz ED will have out-done SC a million times over after doing this. You know, cuz it has an entire universe to explore already and isn't a $400m scam gandalf

glass plinth
#

I love the game, but its not really a mainstay for me

bronze wind
#

yah overall I like the devs/management of ED better than SC lol

austere lance
#

@glass plinth You gonna play it again once it gets space-legs?

bronze wind
#

can't say I blame the devs of SC too much since they've pulled a good amount off and are probably just getting managed into a hole

cinder vessel
#

all i want is ED to have a full offline mode then i'll give it a look

glass plinth
#

For sure Sound.

cinder vessel
#

not about to get invested in space trucking only to have to deal with connection issues screwing it all up, lol

glass plinth
#

Im generally a miner and explorer in ED. Ive been to over 6k planets Id guess

austere lance
#

Thankfully space legs stuff will add whole different ways to make money besides trucking 😩

glass plinth
#

Some are actually rather incredible.

#

Nah

#

Space legs wont be much more then get out, mine, scan. Maybe a few missions raiding bases.

#

Do not expect much from Fdex

#

Fdev

#

LOL

austere lance
#

They showed guns 👀

glass plinth
#

Yeah, it generally wont be complicated. Just a ability to do what you do in the scarab, with more risk and maybe a little base interaction

#

Just expect the most bare bone application

#

That is how Fdev develops ED. They never have been good at developing complex game features. They generally gut all the possible complexities out.

#

I think to a degree its due to the fragile nature of the simulation

#

They arent great at balance and tend to avoid anything which can cause issues.

#

Which generally is a shame. Its not that the dev team isnt capable of creative mechanic balance. They created other awesome games with plenty of complexity. The spartan feature design seems delibrate at this point and even the proponents of the game are leery like obsidian ant. Most people are almost 100 percent certain we wont get space legs in stations or the ships. If anything that would be a update of its own later.

raven frost
#

sounds like a certain gamedev I know

#

coughhellogamescough

glass plinth
#

ANYWHO! As for SC love the game. Its beautiful. The worlds are incredible. There just isnt much of a game in the game yet. A good skeleton with no meat.

cinder vessel
glass plinth
#

Trust me, HG is 100 times better

#

They at least have some creative expression lol

#

Imagine say, the Abyss update, with one animal added and a sub

#

That would be a ed update

#

Frankly at the pace NMS developed, its break neck speed lol

charred badge
#

apparently turning off cloud features in M$ flight sim improves it

gotta love the bench gang

ANYWHO! As for SC love the game. Its beautiful. The worlds are incredible. There just isnt much of a game in the game yet. A good skeleton with no meat.
@glass plinth i agree. But i support it because i can see it will become something great, even if it takes a while

glass plinth
#

So do I

#

I own a cutlass black

raven frost
#

has hzd gotten any better

glass plinth
#

HZD?

raven frost
#

horizon zero dawn

#

has the port gotten any better

austere lance
#

Supposedly yes

#

It got a patch

glass plinth
#

Oooh, I mean I can play it, Always have been able to though.

#

Mite have to do with my older cpu

#

and a newer gpu

#

4690k and a 5700xt

#

Odd pairing, but man it works

bronze wind
#

It was chugging a bit for me on launch but since the patch it's absolutely improved

raven frost
#

like I want it but I don't want to shell out $60 for something I can't run

bronze wind
#

What's your rig

#

I'm assuming it's more than enough if you're running vr

austere lance
#

Plus it got a patch with more updates on the way

raven frost
#

i7-8700
GTX 1080ti
16GB 3200mhz RAM

#

yadda yadda ya

#

I know I'll be able to run it

#

but I want to run it well

bronze wind
#

You'll be fine I'm sure. Most of the complaints are "why won't this run at absolute max at 4k" after the patch lol. I run at 1440p with some stuff like shadows and clouds turned down and it looks great. Only a couple instances of dropped fps where it used to be basically anywhere I went

glass plinth
#

As long as your running at 1080p your rine

raven frost
#

I'm doing 1440

glass plinth
#

Your probably fine

#

I mean the truth is, I preordered for 40 bucks

#

So Im out much less then you would be

#

lol

bronze wind
#

It's also not $60

raven frost
#

oh?

#

oh it's $50

#

still expensive

bronze wind
#

Yeah not exactly that much cheaper but still slightly lol

glass plinth
#

Frankly considering how many thousands of hours i put into most games i buy, i cant complain about cost

bronze wind
#

Btw if you do buy just turn clouds and reflections down, they hurt performance by a lot and don't add much visually at all

raven frost
#

nah I'm just a fuckin cheapskate when it comes to games

#

despite putting 400 hours into nms I still don't think its worth 60

glass plinth
#

LOl

#

Id probably pay 200 for nms

#

But then, im a bit fanatical

bronze wind
#

I wouldn't but I think I have technically

#

Cause I have it on 3 platforms and have bought it for a few people

glass plinth
#

lol

#

Generally games are worth way more then what we charge for them anyways

#

If you scale it to cost to develop, maintain and the per dollar to hour entertainment value attached to other items, of similar development cost

#

I cant see games costing less then 100 bucks by 2060

#

Of course by then you also have to factor in the costs of game development going up steeply

#

Well into hundreds of millions or billions.

raven frost
#

eh

#

$60 is too much

glass plinth
#

Not right now its not

raven frost
#

it is to me 😛

glass plinth
#

Then your expectations are unrealistic lol

raven frost
#

alright

willow crypt
glass plinth
#

It would be like someone expecting me to work for them for a landscaping job I used to charge 30 bucks for say a yard mowing.

#

Now I charge 60 and they are mad

#

While i pay 4 times as much for a mower

#

2 times as much for fuel

#

3 times for the vehcile.

#

Costs scale, deal with it lol, thats usually my line.

raven frost
#

I feel like people are likely gonna find another gardener before paying the extra cost but again that's just me

glass plinth
#

Nah

#

Most the gardeners just up together

#

Pay the cost increase or mow your own damned lawn

#

Guess what? They never mow their own lawns lol

willow crypt
#

i'll mow your lawn

glass plinth
#

Err

#

You better be talking about grass or youll find out how absurdely quick i turn people inside out.

#

I kid mostly

#

I think it is great though when young kids go out, find a used mower and charge less.

#

They have less costs.

charred badge
#

Shoveling in the winter, too

glass plinth
#

I generally set my hourly wages by infllation

#

Im purely fair. If the dollar is worth less, i compensate

#

As well I should

#

So 11 dollars in 2010 is worth 13.25 in 2020

#

Here is the kink

charred badge
#

hmm, not pancake enough

glass plinth
#

Hrmm

willow crypt
#

that lawn needs mowing

glass plinth
#

Elite dangerous ships are a wee easier to make in Empyrion

#

That game actually surprised me how well its come along

#

Never heard of startship evo

#

A little rudimentary. However, I sorta like it

#

Needs a lot of work

#

Looks like it has at least 4 years tell proper release

charred badge
#

yeah, but vitally

#

they're focusing on the ship building instead of trying to do everything at once

#

fill in the world AFTER people can reliably perform the core game functions

cinder vessel
#

lol

#

Empyrion still looks really rough to me, and it's still odd to me that it's out of early access

austere lance
#

I'm waiting for ED to turn into a surprise space-horror game after we get space legs cuz we'll be able to walk on bug planets, lol

#

We can already drive rovers in abandoned Thargoid homes, imagine where we'll be able to go on foot

winter yew
#

I'm still waiting on the game's combat to be as engaging and exciting as the trailers make it out to be.

#

but it's a slog and a mess of confusion as my hatch ALWAYS gets broken and I die.

austere lance
#

Fuck space combat, I'm doing FPS ground combat when it drops

pewpew

echo hill
#

Tfw I didn't get invited to the ODST flight :(

austere lance
#

RIP

winter yew
#

I'm sorry 😭

austere lance
#

People big mad about a name tag they added in ODST 😬

echo hill
#

I'm sad, I got invited to CE, 2 and 3 but no ODST

#

Oh? What is it?

austere lance
#

One sec

#

@echo hill

winter yew
#

uh wow

echo hill
#

Oh good god

dry copper
#

@raven frost I wouldn't say it's perfect, but I'm able to run it with most settings on high on an i7-4790k, rx 5700xt

echo hill
#

People are mad about that?

austere lance
#

Yep

echo hill
#

Lame

dry copper
#

...

#

I'm trying to wrap my head around what is a legitimate gripe and what is deliberate over-sensitivity to draw up negative criticism

austere lance
#

Doesn't help that the one cop you find in the game has a secret background where he's corrupt af, if you find all the audio logs where his bad shit gets shown he tries to kill you when you meet him towards the end of the game

raven frost
#

is it gamers being gamers or-

#

now isn't a good time, wtf am I saying

austere lance
#

So uh, combine that with everything that happened this summer

dry copper
#

What game is that?

echo hill
#

I mean I suppose, but like... The game was made in 2009??

#

Like cmon

austere lance
#

The game you find the corrupt cop in is Halo ODST, that nameplate is (or was) being added to Master Chief Collection cuz ODST is releasing on PC soon

winter yew
#

ah

dry copper
#

Remember Farenheit 451?

cinder vessel
#

was it there originally? thonk

austere lance
#

No

#

They were gonna add it cuz ODST is coming to PC

dry copper
#

weird timing

#

Then they're like...Oh shit, the cancel culture got wind of our cop shit.

echo hill
#

But the corrupt cop thing was already there was it not?

austere lance
#

Somehow it's supposed to represent New Mombasa PD, but the only time you actually meet a NMPD officer in the game he ends up being a corrupt bastard who tries to kill you.....

#

@echo hill Yeah

#

That nameplate wasn't tho

dry copper
#

Tribute to corrupt cops?

austere lance
#

They decided to add that nameplate rn 😬

cinder vessel
#

so they should leave the nameplate in so you know who the corrupt cop bastards are

#

simple fix

dry copper
#

Cuz you know trolls will use it all the time and just troll the servers or cheat

#

"You've been killed by a corrupt cop"

#

Then they'll start oinking out shit like "own the libs"

#

Best not to play that hand

austere lance
#

So people's issues with it are:
A. The only cop you meet in the game is a corrupt POS
B. Adding it rn after everything that happened this summer is 😬
C. You can't tell that it represents New Mombasa PD (which nobody wants represented anyway cuz of previously given reasons) at all, it's literally just police lights

dry copper
#

Or maybe not....I'm only familiar with the toxic people on CS go

austere lance
#

People would definitely abuse it, trust me

dry copper
#

Maybe the toxic people in Halo are more cultured

austere lance
#

Entire teams would use the nameplate and act like trolls

raven frost
#

I'm just sad because the nameplate looks kinda cool tbh

austere lance
#

Why get that nameplate when you can get a forklift one for killing an enemy with a forklift in Halo Reach gandalf

dry copper
#

Maybe give the cop nameplate more colors so it looks like another nameplate

faint fjord
#

Yo anyone here played scrap mechanic

fluid hare
#

I would change it to the NMPD logo, @austere lance

austere lance
#

Hell yes

fluid hare
#

It actually represents what it is, and won't get too much flak compared to the current design.

Why do I instantly feel tired, bored and fatigued when I hear stuff about Elder Scrolls 6

austere lance
#

Because it's just gonna be Skyrim with prettier graphics and a bigger map

#

Probably minor combat and magic changes

cinder vessel
#

fallout 4 combat, less RPG, lmao

austere lance
#

It's literally gonna be Skyrim combat, it barely changed between Oblivion and Skyrim so why change now gandalf

#

Maybe they'll add counter-kills like Dishonored 🤣

willow crypt
#

Yeah.

#

They'll need to make some big moves to give us a fresh experience

silver sparrow
#

ok @dry copper hold on to your pants

willow crypt
#

Wow

fluid hare
#

Wow!

raven frost
#

If you get a chance to, I highly recommend this game
It's in the same spirit of story telling as "To The Moon"

I beta tested it. Was a very compelling story with beautiful art.

#

You are essentially Charon and if (like me) you don't realize that going in, you'll be very hurt with how things turn out.

That drum reverb

#

Sounds very earthy

full pivot
#

Oooo I like this

#

I'm gonna trust these YT recommends.... blobgrimace

#

Lets see if after work today I can commit to playing 3 games for at least an hour each

dry copper
#

This week has been all exams. I can't bring myself to play anything...I worry so much I spend all my waking time studying, then get mentally exhausted.

#

It has been paying off so...it's only one week.

full pivot
#

See its something I wanna change cuz gaming brings me joy

#

So after hours I wanna be losing myself in something

#

Not all my free time but a good chunk

spiral pulsar
#

Rogue legacy 2 out yay

bronze wind
#

@dry copper that's one of my favorite bands

#

they have a lot of good stuff

faint fjord
#

As much as i hate the game i love it

crisp sparrow
#

me wrt NMS

#

though there's no "meh" button, only thumbs up or down

#

too binary

faint fjord
#

Yeah

#

There are games you just cant stop playing

silver sparrow
#

i almost bought ark like 50 times and then i look at the graphics and then yah nah

faint fjord
#

The graphics are awesome@silver sparrow

#

I play on ultra and it looks so good

crisp sparrow
#

definitely not touching ark until I get a good PC set up

faint fjord
#

But its not intensive medium or under settings bit still looks good

#

I had a old pc, very bad

#

Played on medium settings at 60fps

silver sparrow
#

all the ps4 footage looked super blocky

faint fjord
#

You want it on ps4?

silver sparrow
#

i don't have a gaming rig unless it's like carcassone

faint fjord
#

Then yes its shit

silver sparrow
#

ok thanks for confirming 😉

faint fjord
#

I have 1k hours on it

#

So ik my ark

#

Also very fun game

silver sparrow
#

i'm still doing okay with vigor

faint fjord
#

Never heard of vigor

silver sparrow
#

from the dayz developers

faint fjord
#

Ok

silver sparrow
#

the game mechanic limits the amount of griefing

faint fjord
#

Thats nice

silver sparrow
#

because griefers belong in the 9th circle of hell

faint fjord
#

I dont like pvp games i like to sit back and relax take my mind off things and play ganes

#

Games

silver sparrow
#

the fact that griefers exist in Fall Guys is a testament to the existence of pure evil in the human race

bronze wind
#

the people who stand at the finish line to grab people are the worst types of human beings

silver sparrow
#

i understand that it's because they are beaten by their parents or have suffered sexual abuse, but it's still evil

bronze wind
#

uhh

#

ok lol

faint fjord
#

Uhm

charred badge
#

the grind is real

acoustic solar
#
