[barren pewter]

But it means peeps can’t play it

Unless they shell out for a PS5

speaking of…I so want to play RE8 and 4R in VR, but those seem to be PS exclusives for… a while

[fringe salmon]

With how current games are it means we get them on pc a bit later but the base quality is better

FF16 on xbox would have made me cry

if that had to run on series S

the exclusive part of exclusives sucks, they usually do get benefits from it though which makes the games itself better

unless we get redfall...

the tricky part is that can usually be done in a way it still runs on amd hardware, consoles with just one SoC is quite different there

[fading spade]

Why does the callisto protocol have 3 EULAs?

Idk man

[fading spade]

now I must try this level

This name got me intrigued

[novel umbra]

honestly I hate how shittily designed the thermal solution on the PS5 is when the xbox is the direct competition

series x cooling is just the best we have ever seen on a console

also not like they make the main profit on selling the console anyways

[orchid prism]

They even downgraded it 😄

[novel umbra]

idk why they didn't make a more sensible design after the screaming poses that the ps4 and ps4 pro were

[pure bear]

the ps4 looks cool, the ps5 looks like one of those console "leaks"

tho that coffee warmer leak looks worse so theres that

that prob makes it look better yeah

it doesnt look bad

just ok

[rancid hearth]

who was the one who hates fake topographic maps in this server?

[mossy dock]

The Finals, made by a new studio of the old devs at DICE.
Shatterline, some random free game on Steam.
Splitgate, a knockoff Halo but way better.
Battlebit, a knockoff Battlefield with Minecraft looking characters and made by 3 guys.

All these game absolutely destroy the AAA titles for gameplay and optimization.

In that list, only Battlebit will cost you money, a whole $15, the rest are free.

Just shows what a terrible state gaming is in at the top, but how good indie gaming and small teams are!

[fringe salmon]

No I think it shows how skewed perception is. We have x times more indie than aaa games, if 5 indie games fail you don’t notice it, nobody cares and it gets buried or doesn’t even get to steam

[lucid brook]

shatterline had netcode issues at launch

splitgate peaks at like 700-800 players daily

and most of the matches are just filled with bots

[fringe salmon]

And for optimization, if you have less in the game it is easier to optimize for that etc.

Not taking anything away from the amazing games some indies have made, it’s impressive

[lucid brook]

indie is definitely where it is for gaming nowadays, but i still wouldn't give it that much praise

[fringe salmon]

But it is easy to view it as more than it really is

Good luck having any indie game create something like FF16

[lucid brook]

it's possible given enough time and passion

[fringe salmon]

Ehhh

[lucid brook]

but by the time you finish a beta version of the game, big companies would've released 10 similar games

look how long battlebit took

[fringe salmon]

Maybe, but even then, the motion capture, the cinematography, the sound design, the story etc. aren’t something just 5 people can do, you can do a fps game where all that is not needed sure

[lucid brook]

yeah

[fringe salmon]

Last year my goty was elden ring, this year it’s FF16, that’s just not something indie games can make

[lucid brook]

shatterline peaks at 800 players as well, honestly i'm kind of surprised

it's one of the most boring cod-like shooters i've played in the recent years

[fringe salmon]

Now if you say one genre like FPS might not get any decent AAA games and indies are killing it, then I could agree perhaps

[lucid brook]

shooters are dead in general, (over)casualized

[mossy dock]

Every game on that list is an fps 😉

[mossy dock]

Think it's well fun. Especially compared to the last couple of editions of cod

I didn't think I'd like Battlebits that much.... played it for 6 hours straight though yesterday 🤣

[fringe salmon]

It might all be fps but you said it showed what state gaming is in not what FPS are in 😉

[mossy dock]

Read between the line 😉

Or i could write an essay if you wish

[fringe salmon]

I mean from those 4 I only know 2 so not that obvious to me

[mossy dock]

Thats fair lol

[fading spade]

Insurgency Sandstorm sucks compared to the first game ;_;

[lucid brook]

indeed

and it runs like shit as well

[fading spade]

They also lied about Linux support

[mossy dock]

Absoulte drift and their rally game are really basic but also really good fun! And pretty hard

[fading spade]

Splitgate is amazing

[mossy dock]

Loved the original Insurgency

[fading spade]

I love that game

I have a few gameplay videos on my YouTube from the original insurgency

[mossy dock]

Brawlhalla is a good laugh if you like Smash Bro style fighting games

[feral ferry]

https://www.reuters.com/technology/teen-hacked-uber-revolut-grand-theft-auto-maker-london-court-hears-2023-07-11/

This was expected

The kid was reported to be autistic back in the day

[mossy dock]

If you get good with portals, you can absolutely dominate on that game. Get a lot of satisfaction

[fading spade]

Yeah xxdd

Barely anyone uses the portals

[mossy dock]

Was this the same hack that released all the testing footage of gta6

[feral ferry]

Yes

[fading spade]

ROSALINA HAS SUCH A PRETTY DRESS

I WANT IT

[fading spade]

Why does Mariokart Tour get all the cool character models?

this one so cute for Rosalina :D

[feral ferry]

@orchid prism didn't you used to FO4

Yeah the help command doesn't work the same way it used to in TESV, was hella confused why it just wasn't doing anything

[orchid prism]

I ...what

[feral ferry]

That is literally your steam account

With your name on it

I guess we can't all remember what we did 7 years ago

[orchid prism]

Listen here kiddo. I can barely remember what I had for breakfast a few hours ago. Expecting me to remember something from 2015 is... optimistic at best.

[fading spade]

LOL

[feral ferry]

Not bad, but I can outdo you on that one

I can't even remember why I started this conversation

Hello?

[orchid prism]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hb_5MU5NTRg
This is the only time I will admit to posting anything on Steam and stand by it.

[fading spade]

I think that guy stopped making videos reviewing handhelds just barely right before the Steam Deck came out

Switched his content entirely to software documentaries and history of famous software and whatnot

[orchid prism]

No clue who he is. Someone mentioned me being in it years ago here. And I kept a bookmark, cause I found it funny.

[fading spade]

aha!

[feral ferry]

LSG is good

Helps low-end gamers optimize latest games for playability

Well, used to

[orchid prism]

Burned out on that whole thing after I got my 3080, and that british guy just kept doing the same videos over and over.

[feral ferry]

Later he started doing rare hardware reviews

And after a while I forgot LSG existed, been years since I heard of this guy

Seems he now does stories?

[fading spade]

Yeah

total content switch

[feral ferry]

Poor move on his part

But then again no clue why he did that move so if that's what he wanted to do then, whatever

But LSG was popular back then

Seems now he's rather irrelevant

[fading spade]

Funny he didnt change the channel name to match it

cause nothig he currently does has anything to do with low spec gaming

O.o

he deleted all his old videos

it just ends

[feral ferry]

Didn't delete

Look harder

[fading spade]

unlisted

[feral ferry]

Yep

[fading spade]

oohh

He switched content away from handheld gaming just as handheld gaming was about to get actually good

😢

If he waited another few months, hed have been able to cover the Steam Deck and AyaNeo and OneXPlayer

[feral ferry]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fV69lbK43OQ

I wonder if they have enough game content to cover 2-3 times a week until game launch

It's months until this game launches

[ember geyser]

any csgo kz players out here willing to help out? ;))

[fading spade]

I mean...

Handheld PCs can play pretty much any game that runs on a computer

and mods

dont you have a Deck?

[pure bear]

dedicated handheld consoles like the 5 year old switch with an apu from 8 years ago

a miracle it runs what it runs

[fading spade]

ikr

idek wtf that last one is

wait neogeo

nvm yeah I do

[pure bear]

ds was the best

for some reason the 3ds never really clicked with me

also dont forget psp

that might be better than the ds

[fading spade]

I love the DSi form factor

[pure bear]

yeah but for its day it was really powerful

[empty sedge]

UMD felt special to put in the console , i watched könige der wellen on psp just because of the disk

[pure bear]

MHFU

i dont care about other games tbh

[empty sedge]

MHFU

[pure bear]

that alone makes it worth for me

[solar lily]

One thought Guitar Hero was dead in the water but On Tour been dead longer

[shut stratus]

It was indeed an amazing port. the nostalgia hits me every damn time i think about it.

yep

[fading spade]

I wish the minecraft wooden tools looked llike the wood they were made from

Id love to use Cherry wood and have the nice pink come through on it

[shut stratus]

THIS

[solar lily]

Next we'll be asking for sticks to receive the same treatment

gotta have that cherry bow and cherry fishing rod

[fading spade]

yyyes

[pure bear]

while oak trees drop apples

[feral ferry]

How does that even happen

Also, #🎮│game

[solar lily]

I know what we'll do, we already ditched roses for poppies let's replace apples with cherries and have them drop from those new trees I heard about

(where have I heard golden cherries before...)

[tough jay]

Ah yes the game I played after Elite Beat Agents that opened me to osu!

[orchid prism]

Happens every year.

Some videographers also blocked a take over the other day and were banned and fined.

[feral ferry]

No but like I might just have an unrealistic grasp of the situation but

A guy holding his phone should not just make a professional cyclist start to wobble and crash

[tough jay]

Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, people forget the name osu! comes from there.
Shame iNiS never continued the series

[feral ferry]

I mean, it did

But it seems off

[orchid prism]

TDF have massive crashes every year. Just the nature of having super long stretches of open road with no security.

[pure bear]

they are pretty fast

[nimble current]

and those tires are like 2mm thicc

[pure bear]

and prob dont expect idiots to hold their arms into a bike race

[fading spade]

ZombieCleo's vtuber model is mega cursed :')

[tough jay]

Also in such a group the margin for error is small, just a minor movement can cause this

[nimble current]

those tires are also developed to be as low friction as possible so not that grippy on those 2mm to begin with

[feral ferry]

Since we are a bit off the topic on this channel

Is your country having a heatwave?

Here in eastern europe, everything is normal

[nimble current]

vtubers are cursed period

here the weather is pretty shit

[tough jay]

Weather is okay here, just 21c max today tomorrow 24c a bit more rain than I like but mostly fine

[feral ferry]

Jesus christ

How can you stand more than a minute?

The sunburn and just exhaustion from heat would kill me within few mins

[grizzled bramble]

Sheesh

[feral ferry]

I never actually looked up why is death valley so damn hot

[tough jay]

You know a sauna is hotter, so for a few minutes it should be fine, granted the sun is a large factor

[feral ferry]

Sahara is less violent than that shit

[nimble current]

yeah the intensity of the sunlight is gonna be worse than the heat

hope they brought sunblockers

[tough jay]

Still handling it for a couple of minutes should be perfectly doable

[grizzled bramble]

Here it's just rain on the radar, which is needed though 😅

[nimble current]

been having almost daily rain since july started

[grizzled bramble]

This game is quite difficult 🥵

[nimble current]

a lot of stormy/harsh winds too

[tough jay]

I quite enjoyed finishing that game on my steam deck

Well worth it

Especially since it was free

[orchid prism]

But so awesome when you get a sequence just perfect.

[nimble current]

what game

[orchid prism]

Ghostrunner

[grizzled bramble]

Yeah

[tough jay]

Ghostrunner at least isn't punishing, just requires some practice

Never really felt stuck on any level.

[grizzled bramble]

Yeah a lot of practice and not missing jumps lol

[orchid prism]

And Valve

I'm going to bet this slots in the Steamdeck. But not necessarily laptops?

[nimble current]

this is kind of my gripe with all these regulations they keep imposing, the ideas are great on paper but how and in what terms will they be enforced

[grizzled bramble]

But handhelds like the SD or Ally have quite easy replaceable batteries already don't know about the Switch but can't be that bad

[nimble current]

because I know politicbros are extremely tech illiterate on average

[pure bear]

the sd battery is glued down isnt it, but still decently replaceable

but i mean i'm all for easily replacing it

[tough jay]

As far as I read glued down is not allowed

screws are fine

[nimble current]

like will the EU regard a device such as steam deck a PC or "portable gaming console"

[grizzled bramble]

PSP was nice though just plop in another one and good to go

[small comet]

idk where it says only consoles

ANY portable battery needs to be replaceable

[vapid lintel]

I once made eggs using salt that I scraped off the ground in Death Valley

[small comet]

it doesnt single out anything. the article states this would also apply to consoles and the steam deck etc.

[nimble current]

screwed in battery is not an issue I think, its all the glue and clips you can't really open/remove without a large chance of destroying your device they want rid off

[tough jay]

" portable battery should be considered
to be removable by the end-user when it can be removed with the use of commercially
available tools and without requiring the use of specialised tools, unless they are provided
free of charge, or proprietary tools, thermal energy or solvents to disassemble it."

[small comet]

yes

[nimble current]

tbh I'd like to see that covering stuff like e-bike battery packs

[pure bear]

english using accumulator and battery interchangably is so bad

[small comet]

so screwed in or clicked in

[nimble current]

just swap out the cells inside the pack

[fading spade]

it is replaceable on the Deck, you can buy a replacement on iFixIt

[nimble current]

why throw away a perfectly good casing and controller

[small comet]

Light means of transport batteries will need to be replaceable by an independent professional.

they are included

[nimble current]

you still need a battery pack regardless

[small comet]

any battery/accumulator needs to be user replaceable basically in portable devices

aka phones, laptops, steam decks, nintendo switches etc etc

would prob qualify under light means of transport

so replaceable by any professional

[nimble current]

there's also a fair bit of ugly tricks and methods the manufacturers do to shorten the lifecycle of them

[small comet]

this will basically bring back the same competitive market that once existed for third party batteries with longer lifetime etc

huge fan of the change

[tough jay]

Bycicles and such fall under the category of industrial / ev batteries

[small comet]

although i somehow feel apple and other big companies will have EU specific devices

[nimble current]

wonder when you'll be able to diy an e-scooter

[small comet]

and the rest of the world gets the old garbage

[small comet]

whats light means of transport then

hoverboards?

[pure bear]

apple did bow to the usbc at least

[small comet]

well they need to bow to this aswell

unless they dont want sales in the eu

[tough jay]

Seems there is some sort of 5kg cutoff but my legalese is not good enough to interpret this well:

"The industrial battery category encompasses a broad group of batteries, intended to be used
for industrial activities, communication infrastructure, agricultural activities, or generation
and distribution of electric energy. Batteries which are given industrial uses after being
subject to preparation for repurposing or repurposing, even though they were initially
designed for a different use, should be considered to be industrial batteries under this
Regulation. In addition to this non exhaustive list of examples, any battery that weighs
more than 5 kg that does not fall under any other categories under this Regulation should
be considered to be an industrial battery. Batteries used for energy storage in private or
domestic environments, should be considered to be industrial batteries for the purposes of
this Regulation. Batteries used for traction in wheeled vehicles considered to be toys within
the meaning of Directive 2009/48/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council1,
should, for the purposes of this Regulation, not be considered to be LMT batteries, but to
be portable batteries"

[pure bear]

i mean as in they obeyed it without making a separate device. ofc thats just a guess tho

[small comet]

Art 2 (9) 'light means of transport' means wheeled vehicles that have an electric motor of less than 750 watts,

there we go

[nimble current]

those laws are likely subject to change in places

[small comet]

well yes but thats a port thing right really cheap and well sure it sucks but they still got the entire phone unrepairable basically

[small comet]

its an eu regulation so usually it means countries need to implement it as is or stricter

unless the regulation changes

[nimble current]

currently e-bikes/scooters are limited to 250W engine power here, but they're looking into increasing that

since it kinda leaves out a lot of larger/heavier individuals from having much benefit from it

[small comet]

but ya this means ebikes and such can have their battery replaced at any professional repair shop

they have to make it replaceable

if the bike bricks its not replaceable

ya so not replaceable

yes those will continue to exist

sadly

[nimble current]

my e-scooter has a 500w motor and is faster than "bicycle speeds" but noone seems to regulate or care about this

neither salesmen, law enforcement or people

500w is like the bare minimum for a thiccboi like myself

law enforcement here are pretty well aware of such systems and could potentially confiscate your bike for "investigating" if they don't buy your ignorance

heard some just told the officers it'll go a bit faster and unless they caught you driving recklessly they probably won't give you a hard time about it

at least if they're in a good mood

my scoot looks a lot like those weak xiaomi etc 250w scooters from a distance

also I use helmet etc

very few people use helmets on those things here

or bicycles for that matter

hopefully that alone makes me a less juicy target

I see people having their toddlers stand in front of them on the footplate while driving around too

like that doesn't look the least bit safe lol

rare to see more than one kid on a bicycle here tbh

[small comet]

no the classic experience is a guy with a fridge on his back on a bycicle

[nimble current]

when I think bicycle being the family car I think asia

though its usually a moped or something there

[small comet]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nA40QqNn-1U

biking in europe

[pure bear]

dont think ive seen that

what happened in 2002

[nimble current]

I had a 98 honda moped scooter for a couple years

thing was so overengineered

designed to go at twice the speeds they were able to do here

had to restrict that fuckin engine in 3 places to get it to legal speeds

easily the torquiest 50cc I've owned

[nimble current]

taking a job at riot seems like the ultimate irony of that

[bleak pike]

I'm confused

They already did a huge push earlier this year, I was gutted but they were selling switch games for 10-15 on clearance

Including just released games

[bleak pike]

I don't see the logic behind this

Core membership doesn't offer you the same perks as the game pass

So why is it under that banner

[feral ferry]

Yeah but where's a sequel or a remake

And no that chrono cross or whatever spinoff they made in 2000s doesn't count

[fringe salmon]

I wonder how many tracks the game has in total now

Sadly there is no list of it anywhere I looked

[fringe salmon]

We already have patch content with new tracks past the endwalker parts

[orchid prism]

Endwalker. The only part of FF14 that made me replace a track with mods.

That damn space zone with the gradually evolving guitar track as you progress just plain sucks as the final piece, you keep hearing over and over while farming mats there several times a day

[fringe salmon]

I was expecting you to say the weirdly hype music down in labyrintos but not that one lol

[orchid prism]

(this random rant was brought to you by Lalafells)

[orchid prism]

I honestly don't even remember the music there. I was spending way too much time in...is it called Thule something (for whatever reason) while leveling my crafting skills.

[fringe salmon]

The lower parts have some music that make you think action is happening and that was a bit much imo

How dare you replace close in the distance though smh

[orchid prism]

I replaced it with one of the vocal less progression tracks.

Vocal ambient music does not work. It becomes frustrating to listen to

[fringe salmon]

Ok fair

[dense idol]

anyways quick question for current wooting ppl

is there a good sensitivity to put assuming i still plan on using it for like normal everyday typing work for school?

[charred falcon]

sensitivity is preference

[dense idol]

windows 11?

ok but how much fps

[fringe salmon]

All just preference what you set the actuation point to

[dense idol]

im just nervous about fat fingering an ult

[fringe salmon]

Gotta try what works for you maybe it works for typing too or you have different seething per profile

[dense idol]

because i do that already on a normal keyboard

[fringe salmon]

You could try a lower actuation to start then and see if that works

[charred falcon]

you can set it so you need to bottom it out

[dense idol]

but bottoming out defeats the purpose of buying a wooting doesnt it

[charred falcon]

?

[fringe salmon]

Not really

Unless you move so slow it takes 5 second to bottom out

Or you could also just have only the ult set to bottom out

[dense idol]

in ur experience is the software for changing individual keys fairly responsive?

[charred falcon]

you can buy the keyboard without needing to mess with actuation points too

[dense idol]

i hate logitech ghub for example with a burning passion

[charred falcon]

it's not using contact switches which can chatter and need debouncing

[dense idol]

well i should probably just wait for the actual keyboard to arrive and form my own opinion huh

alr ty for the insight

;-;

[dense idol]

pretty accurate diagram actually, fuck around being the independent variable to describe how much ur going to find out

also no tax for wooting?

or am i reading my receipt wrong

[fringe salmon]

Should depend on what you local VAT is? If there’s no sales tax at your location

[dense idol]

well there usually is but im currently overseas shipping it to my home address

my billing address is marked as my home address which does have a 8.75% tax normally

interesting

[fading spade]

They had like 40,000 of these for sale

That's like 12 million dollars for a bunch of crap barely worth 50$ over base.

[orchid prism]

40k units? I ... have doubts.

25k apparently. That's still kind of insane.

[hot spire]

bro

the artbook alone is 50

[still spire]

That was on PC only or something

Console had more

[hot spire]

not to mention the statue

[still spire]

Artbook is made out of plastic.

😛

Statue is paper mache

[orchid prism]

I figure a lot of people are buying them to scalp the MTG cards for later.

[still spire]

I doubt the MTG cards will be worth shit, but we'll see

[hot spire]

the book is the same fit and finish as the collector edition DND books

they are dope

[orchid prism]

Anything limited and nostalgia bait always seems to win with MTG 😄

Still waiting to see how playing as one of the companions will be in practice. It was... interesting and weird in their other games.

[still spire]

Apparently you can run around town naked and there are reactions from NPCS. We gonna see a lot of wild videos.

[hot spire]

you can do that in the beta lol

[orchid prism]

No.

[orchid prism]

That's been a thing for decades. Hardly an innovation 😄

[still spire]

lol

Just funnny is all

[hot spire]

yeah if you run around wearing nothing you get comments from npcs

Be whatever you want

[small comet]

so now everygame needs this i guess

[still spire]

Yeah

What is it uh

The next Betheda game

Starsiege

It needs a genital slider

This is gonna make the game hard to stream for sure, some ToS violations 😛

[hot spire]

there is a stream option

it blurs the whole screen though

[orchid prism]

Only if they're handling it poorly as streamers.

[still spire]

Was streaming Heavy Rain, got the strip scene at the club. Really just streaming for my friend so it turned out ok, but whew was I worried

[hot spire]

but yeah the sex sences arent thatr graphic though

[still spire]

Amazing they got Danny Devito to voice the bear, and MoCap too

[hot spire]

Apparently Elden Ring is coming to GamePass

[tough jay]

Interesting, actually for the longest time found download speeds to be the biggest weakness on steam

It somewhat recently got fixed but I remember the times where I was quite bottlnecked on steam only downloading at 30MB/s or so

I think it was mostly due to system bottlenecks decompressing

[fringe salmon]

compression is mostly what games can still decide on

but bnet straight up did/does not offer gigabit download

[quiet vault]

damn u got gigabit internet?

[fringe salmon]

probably for like a decade now

[quiet vault]

crazy

we getting the ability to buy it soon

but idk not paying 80€ a month for internet

[fringe salmon]

its like half that for me

[quiet vault]

what country

[fringe salmon]

germany

[quiet vault]

huh

what company

[fringe salmon]

[quiet vault]

they would want 70 from me after a year

but ive only had bad experiences with Vodafone so

[fringe salmon]

well its ex unitymedia so it goes via the tv line

[feral ferry]

I'm paying 15 a month for a gigabit

[quiet vault]

[quiet vault]

i mean quin

im getting 100mbit fiber soon lol

[feral ferry]

Germany afaik has transitioned to fiber

[quiet vault]

slowly

they try to

[feral ferry]

I remember a conversation we had here a long long ass time ago about fiber in germany

I thought, was it quin? Mentioned that Germany is now exclusively fiber

[quiet vault]

im german

lol

[fringe salmon]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

oh that was a good one

exclusive fibre lol

[feral ferry]

Must have been some other country then

[quiet vault]

we using da copperrrrr

Less goooo

[trim rock]

Yeah don't know about that, I've heard from people there that the country is way behind when it comes to things like this

[feral ferry]

Maybe the conversation was about that, that Germany is late on fiber

That convo was a long time ago, I forgot the details

[quiet vault]

germany just so big

many villages and all

[fringe salmon]

usa and germany should be fuly fibre for years now

government spend the money

just, greed happened

[orchid prism]

After changing the VO completely in 14 after Vanilla, I can see how.

They still haven't lived that one up 😄

[fringe salmon]

I mean that was also lack of budget and literal time

Honestly if they do a good pc port that is stable and smooth and has new features like rtx or whatever they want to market, that game is going to be a masterclass on how to do things right

(Aside from objective points like story pacing or rpg elements where it’s very much subjective)

Hes been a fan of the Deck since getting one and hes fairly damn unbiased to things also!

The Ally has a higher res and higher FPS screen, but that doesnt matter much when most of the games I play on here dont get close to reaching those specs

[nimble current]

so why play those kinds of games on it

[fading spade]

His main game was Destiny 2

cant run that one Deck

but it doesnt run at 120Hz on the Ally so you cant use that screen to the max it can do

[fringe salmon]

yes you can

[fading spade]

you cant cause anticheat

:/

[fringe salmon]

you cant run it on steamos but you can do it on the deck

[fading spade]

ok yeah

but who wants to ruin the main advantage of the Deck?

the ease of use and controller friendly UI?

[fringe salmon]

if its the main game who cares

most people play the game not the ui

[fading spade]

the main complaint about the Ally is Windows

trying to struggle using it with controller and touchscreen

[bleak pike]

I never ever use the touch screen

Tbh

As for d2 I can't be assed with using windows just for it

[fading spade]

I found some older games need me to tap the screen on theur main menu before the controls work

idk why that happens

but its a consistent fix

[nimble current]

not much of a loss tbh

[queen widget]

Dont want too say too much but i got my first ace in csgo this month shortly after i got this keyboard

[bleak pike]

Running destiny 2 on the deck has become somewhat undesirable anyway

Bungie keeps making it run worse

[fading spade]

Desktop mode on the Deck is a horrible experience

its easy to navigate with touchpads though!

[bleak pike]

Not horrible but not great

I'll take it over windows anyway on the deck

[fading spade]

Windows on ally will be harder to navigate cause no touchpads

got to aim the cursor with thumbstick

and the triggers do nmot act as mouse bnuttons

so you have to press the stick to click

and that moves the cursor ever so slightly

a little blob of thermal paste

[barren pewter]

not nearly enough

I'm already disapointed by armored core

dont even know what the gameplay is, only saw two trailers, but it's still getting release on xbox one and ps4 lol

[feral ferry]

It's a mecha

There isn't a single mecha game that is outstanding

They are always second rate games with second rate generic gameplay

Same with anime tbf

A bit of a weird genre

Where's David Hayter?

The latest one where he got shit on for apologizing?

[bleak pike]

Content cop and past content

Ye

[feral ferry]

If he wants to change then so be it

No need to shit on the man

I just feel bad for him in a way, his "wife" is just abusing him

All of his problems started and will end with that female

[bleak pike]

My knowing anything about him stopped with his squirrel videos

[feral ferry]

Not really, the way that whatever her name is treats him is rather sad

Man got literally shamed by her on his own stream

Something something "Ian pisses his own bed"

Like, wtf are you talking about

Maybe she's fine, who knows, but the whole OnlyFan situation, her actions and other tidbits make her seem a bit like a leech

Could just be completely wrong and she's a great person

Meh, don't care, as long as dubz does fine

I'm inclined to believe that's exactly why CS:GO now has short comp, half the duration of normal

HVCI

[fringe salmon]

YouTuber should just Name product instead of clickbait title challenge

[fading spade]

Naraka Bladepoint

[fringe salmon]

Seems like it’s something they plan to fix in a month and what they want you to disable is something that separates kernel and user space memory. Which to my knowledge wasn’t even a thing some years ago

@young crow if I guess they just never updated it to work with new windows settings do you think that’s most likely the case?

Doesn’t seem shady to me just cheap in dev time

[fading spade]

😍 💜

GIMME THIS CASE

[fringe salmon]

Basically seems to me at least they just didn’t update it and calling it shady is just clickbait from not understanding what it does

[fading spade]

the game is from 2021

that is modern windows

[fringe salmon]

No

[fading spade]

HVCI was around in Windows 10

[fringe salmon]

If Microsoft documentation says only with 22h2 it shows warnings it was likely disabled before or they just had something running they used on an older game before

It’s still relatively new

[small comet]

get it custom painted

prob cheaper

and you can get it on any case

[fringe salmon]

Feel free to show me how it could be used for something bad, from my understanding I don’t see how this is anything but laziness/incompetence/not wanting to spend dev time on it but I’m happy to be proven wrong

[fading spade]

From a distance, we're a baby sniffer

[orchid prism]

Expensive import from Texas I bet 😄

[fading spade]

The case is already expensive AF ;-; 230 dollars

[rancid hearth]

Personally what I plan on doing is finding someone who can do glass laser etching

I think thats the best way to get a customized case, also if you have access to a vinyl cutter you can make vinyl decals

You can also purchase vinyl stickers of whatever character you want

[orchid prism]

Could just have them put faux etching.

Can't tell it isn't etched unless you touch it. And you can get it off.

[young crow]

under no circumstance normal software needs HVCI off

HVCI protects writing to .text sections of drivers and some OS protected stuff like g_CiOptions

it's not a matter of not updating it for windows 11, it's just idiotic code

[fringe salmon]

But more likely to be incompetent code rather than shady still or do you think otherwise?

[young crow]

not possible to explain that one with incompetence

[fading spade]

[nimble current]

its shit like this that makes steelseries so sleazy

its obvious why they design it like that

[trim rock]

I find it enjoyable enough, just shut down my brain and kill some dinos.. until the PVP bit then it's gamer mode activate

Also I kinda want to see the story stuff because I like silent protags that are still very present in cutscenes

Really the most egregious thing about it right now is how it's asking for money on every screen, like a free to play game

I would not be surprised if there's an end of service announcement next year

how old is the sensei now

[fading spade]

no idea

Was kinda thinking of going back to Skyrim yet again, and heard of this "mega-modpack" called Nolvus

It looks absolutely bonkers, like a 2023 released RPG

https://www.nolvus.net/appendix/installer/requirements

What the actual hell are these requirements

3080Ti minimum

[orchid prism]

[feral ferry]

Skyrim is a next-next-gen AAAA super-RPG confirmed

"RTX 4090 recommended for native 4K"

It's not even raytraced yet it requires 4090 just to run 4K

Jesus

[fringe salmon]

well modding also means you have the same base engine and if thats not great you have higher hardware needs for same graphics

[feral ferry]

Yeah but I used to run Skyrim on 512mb of VRAM at acceptable framerates on a 2010 APU

So, no GPU

4090 just boggles my mind on a 2011 game

[fringe salmon]

well yeah then even more so

scaling down well doesnt mean it scales up well

[feral ferry]

Rather interesting that the modpack specifically recommends Nvidia

Was kinda thinking that Nvidia just has better game-enhancing tech than AMD, was hoping to get a 6800XT for a good price, but maybe a 3080 is far better just for the features

Then again, 40 series cause DLSS3 and they are bleh

[fringe salmon]

do thjey though or do they just not mentio amd because mod team means a handful of people that just doesnt have an amd gpu to test

[feral ferry]

All recommendations are for Nvidia cards, they just mention not to enable DLAA support on any hardware that isn't Nvidia cause it'll just instantly crash

But in general, I guess Nvidia is just a better pick over AMD, eh?

[fringe salmon]

I mean that just means they recommend nvidia cards and dont have amd cards in the mod team to test I guess

[feral ferry]

This DLAA thing, is that the tech that Nvidia marketed for higher fidelity video streaming?

I remember they launched something recently that made videos look a lot crisper and more detailed

[hot spire]

is that you?

No it's just antialiasing, basically DLSS but running at native resolution

[jagged lotus]

be overconfident can e a good thing

but ur game sense and aim have to match it

[willow quiver]

like 7/10 times i loose to the smarter play, cause my brain turns off and i tunnel vision

[jagged lotus]

LMAO

when i play comp it feels like that but im not auto piloting

[willow quiver]

my intuation is good, its the pre round and post round shit

What's up with this journalism

https://thegamefile.com/index.php/2023/07/22/remnant-2-receives-amazing-reviews/

"Amazing reviews" -> 7/10

7/10 is above 5/10, which is "average or mixed", yet not amazing

9-10/10 is where an "amazing game" is

[fringe salmon]

out of 9 there is one rating that is 7/10 the others are better what are you on about

[feral ferry]

Reading actual players' reviews, it's quite weird

Peeps saying it takes soulsborne, and makes it hardcore

A lot of peeps say that they can't progress through the very first story boss

[fringe salmon]

from the link you posted:
PCGamesN – 8 / 10
IGN 9/10
Entertainment Geekly – 9/10
Destructoid – 8.5 / 10
Gamer Escape – 8 / 10

[feral ferry]

Including a 7/10 into an "amazing reviews" article is a bit disingenuous to your own statement

7/10 is far from amazing

And most publications gave it an 8

[fringe salmon]

ok so literally one person did think its a 7 so its cant be amazing

[feral ferry]

Well when the publication is GameSpot... yeah, I'd argue that yes, it's not that amazing

[tough jay]

I really don't find too much value in the number under game reviews, Unless it's low enough for red-flag territory

[feral ferry]

Yeah, reading the players reviews people seem to be fine with the game

Common criticism is overaggressive difficulty and problems with the monetization

[fringe salmon]

ah yes a review after 20 hours from some random person saying 7/10 has enough value to drag it down?

[feral ferry]

Considering Elden Ring didn't get below 80 out of 100 with 85 reviews.. yeah

Again, I would never associate 7 with amazing, and the fact they had to include it to me screams that the game doesn't have a big following, not many critics actually reviewed it and they were grasping for good reviews to include, and potentially could be not as "amazing" as they claimed

Just cherrypicking the best reviews they can find, and as it happens the best they could find is a 7

[fringe salmon]

man you are really grasping at straws

[feral ferry]

We'll see what player score is

[fringe salmon]

some random website listed some reviews and because that happens to include the 7/10 from some guy called richard it's overblown to call it amazing

[feral ferry]

Tbf I find it rather funny, they included a Polygon review, and that's actually negative

"Amazing"

[fringe salmon]

its not even negative

its literally the reviewer saying the setting isnt for him thats why its not scored

[feral ferry]

https://www.polygon.com/reviews/23800580/remnant-2-review-soulslike-bloodborne-dark-souls-soulsborne

Not negative?

Reading the thing the guy seems to be actually scathing it

[fringe salmon]

idk it wasnt linked so all I could go of was

[feral ferry]

Well, I was a bit interested in this title, and I'll be looking into how the game is received by YT reviewers and the public

Souls with guns is a genre that's been lacking a wee bit of titles, and another one is appreciated

[fringe salmon]

Folks, there’s no point in fearing some hypothetical apocalypse waiting for us over the horizon. We’re living through one right now. It’s just so slow-moving and boring that our dumb amphibian brains are instead making entertainment out of the water getting hotter around us like it’s not seconds away from a rolling boil.

the polygon guy clearly did not like the setting and went on some weird speach lol

[feral ferry]

Journos are a weird breed tbf

[fringe salmon]

It took me 16 hours to finish the game’s campaign, planning early-morning and late-night sessions around a climate change-induced California heat wave so as to not exacerbate the daily triple-degree temperatures already turning my home into a sweat lodge.

my man get an AC and dont talk about your apartment in a reveiw

[nimble current]

you know they a journalist when they can't help but bring up unrelated things like living in california or climate change politics in their game review

[fringe salmon]

I dont think cali having mid 30s temperature is politics but yes, still not relevant here

[nimble current]

for americans it is

[fringe salmon]

I mean in that case please add that one part more often because that should not be controversial

[orchid prism]

It all went swimmingly...until I realized that I couldn't easily leave my island to go on pirate raids without... a functional vehicles mod (which is currently being patched for 1.4)

So uh... peaceful shipswrecked pirate settlement?

[feral ferry]

Just on the topic of souls with guns

Is Devil May Cry technically souls-like?

Even though DMC I'm pretty sure is way older than soulsborne

[fallow bronze]

Ninja Gaiden is older right?

[slim token]

as long as there's violent violence im in

[feral ferry]

Oh not this gamehttps://store.steampowered.com/news/app/1468720/view/3667669664006296716

I was always rather surprised how games like these are able to handle such massive armies

But it looks dreadful

[fringe salmon]

almost like the dmc combat director worked on it

This is just horrifying.

Ubisoft CONFIRMS they will delete your account & purchased games if you go inactive for too long!!!

Ubisoft.. WTF?! Another example of why I'm becoming more & more concerned with the death of physical games.

Fuck off Ubi

[orchid prism]

[slim token]

years being....

i've gotten a warning to log in to avoid closure

maybe they'll close it without warning next time

[charred falcon]

They replied with "We certainly do not want you to lose access to your games or account"

my brother in christ you made the feature

That's part of a sentence

Here

Oh nvm am on mobile and didn't see the second image

[tired knoll]

What the freak would they do that for

[slim token]

remind you the company still exists and beg you for more time and money

[tired knoll]

Gay

[charred falcon]

Don't give money to those companies

[still spire]

Oh man we have reached the timeline some of us feared

The Remnant 2 developers, when asked about performance in their game

said they designed it around Upscaling Tech like FSR and DLSS

That it was "meant to be used with the game to achieve stable performance"

I was and a lot of people were worried devs were gonna use it as a crutch but holy shit

A 4090 can't even get 4K/60FPS in it natively
