You have some arbitrary numbers on each of your 4-5 items of clothing and suit. But the game never tells you how far away from having a good enough score for somewhere.

#

Like visiting the Red Mile in gear that can't handle... minus 18

#

Or visiting main story planets that just hit you with solar radiation or something out of left field. Everyone else wearing khakis and sunglasses like it's no big deal.

I'm still very grateful that Valve didn't call it the Steam Pal like they originally wanted to .....
That's a horrible name

I mean it is, rog ally is hardly a handheld.

fading spade
#

Hmmm?

#

Well..... You got to try using Windows using joysticks and touchscreen
So fair enough :')

#

If the ROG Ally has touchpads
..... Now that would be great

#

The Deck touchpads are invaluable in desktop mode
Left one is a scroll wheel
Right is cursor movent
Then the triggers are right and left click

orchid pelican
#

how is the rog ally not a handheld?

#

its smaller than steamdeck

fading spade
#

Cause you can't do everything you need to do with controller

Windows requires mouse and keyboard a lot of the time

Can we please stop going over headlines as fact with no further info and speculate about it

#

That’s not new, that’s changed in June last year, it was conflicting tos, they can make changes etc. lawyers already looked at it

Unity recently made sudden changes to its revenue share and terms of service (TOS), sparking backlash from the game development community. In this video, I discuss why Unity has lost all trust of game devs, why there's more to it than just the recent Unity revenue changes and why people are jumping ship to move to other game engines.

good ol hard hitting british sarcasm will surely make Unity see the light of day and realise their mistakes

#

well hope it works out

#

noone benefits from studios abandoning games or having to redo the whole thing from abrupt engine changes

novel umbra
#

epic games and whoever maintains godot benefits

small comet
#

imagine you just invested into unity and this pr disaster hits

feral ferry
#

Stock price is way down mm

small comet
#

hasnt unity stock been going down for a while now

fringe salmon
#

Yes and this could make it go up

orchid prism
#

The news only dropped it by two bucks or something I think?

small comet
#

i personally dont believe itll go up if devs actually just leave the unity ecosystem

fringe salmon
#

If they can turn profitable by shorting on game devs and going big on industrial? Absolutely

small comet
#

so what if the big devs also just jump out

#

publishers can easily just decline projects build in unity

#

sort of really depends on how the policy pans out

fringe salmon
#

Industry xr and all isn’t going through publishers because those apps never get released outside of the project

#

Unity is not just games

#

Making some safety instruction tutorial for machinery in AR isn’t ending up on steam

small comet
#

it also wont bring in tons of money

#

at least with the pricing they have now

#

millions of game installs and such would bring in a huge chunk more

#

2yr+ of dev time potentially gets thrown away because of this change

#

in 1 studio

#

and other studios/game devs have thought about the exact same

#

so this will 100% hurt the bottom line of unity

fringe salmon
#

sure but that doesnt necessarily matter for stock prices, the small industry projects are using the most expensive license seats even if they dont produce massive games

small comet
#

yeah but the seat prices didnt change

#

they just want money per install as well

#

and you cant tell me that those insider apps will be installed so many times it makes unity rich

#

or any noticable amount of money compared to the loss

#

unsure if the pricing table i saw was accurate but 0.12$ per install for enterprise licensing doesnt sound profitable

#

that sounds profitable for big games

#

and stuff like genshin impact etc

fringe salmon
#

that pricing doesnt start until a million in revenue and in installs so its an incentive to get people to use the more expensive license seats to not care about that

#

dont get me wrong I think this is idiotic and all just there is reason behind it that makes sense if you dont think about it too hard

small comet
#

im not saying its completely useless... just that this change affects too many smaller studios and devs as well

fringe salmon
#

yeah but that doesnt neccesarily make it bad for stock prices

#

so from purely investing standpoint it could be good if you math your way in

small comet
#

well as far as i understand stock: company profit go down, stock price go down

fringe salmon
#

if they shed support by having less indies and can reduce cost it makes it look better, firing people always makes stock go up bc less salary to pay etc.

small comet
#

yeh cause profit go up if you pay less

fringe salmon
#

I dont think it will work out well in this case but people could think it will be profitable in the long run and now just bleed a bit

small comet
#

i mean they already rolled back a few concrete statements they made in regards to this

#

like only counting 1 install per x

#

pretty sure its still not known if its per system or user or home or whatever

fringe salmon
#

oh yeah its a mess and people internall are leaving and such

small comet
#

who knows what else they gonna change or roll back

fringe salmon
#

oh yeah its a mess but people are misreading stuff just as much as they made stuff unclear

LOL that's a good announcement

small comet
#

well

#

the fact it had denuvo and microtransactions was putting me off massively

#

also

#

the seasonpass

#

idk why every game needs such a thing now

limber plank
#

the combination of season pass + microtranstions + always online makes me not want to buy it even with the denuvo gone

#

and the worst part about the microtransations is they wont be there at launch

#

they are hiding it so cant be good

small comet
#

why would you

#

you can interact before masking up

#

also police doesnt swarm as much anymore

#

unless these 2 changed massively since the beta

small comet
#

forgot about that dumb shit

#

maybe ill not buy it

#

but yeah my main gripe rn is MTX and then the audacity to still do DLC on top

#

this will end like pd2 where over the years i accumulated 95 DLCs

#

but i still would need to invest more just to get some random cosmetic locked behind mtx

limber plank
#

if it was just the dlc or micro transactions it would have been fine but both is just greedy

small comet
#

exactly

#

i dont mind mtx for character skins

#

they never had special powers in pd2 either

#

and maps could also be mtx

#

also the gold edition is way too expensive

#

50bucks extra or so

limber plank
#

paying for stuff they havent made yet is just stupid

small comet
#

the issue is they tie preorder bonuses and exclusive cosmetics to it

#

so even if you dont want the season pass you have to pay for it if you want those

limber plank
#

some do unfortunately

small comet
#

also inb4 only the 1 map from the beta is in the release

limber plank
#

would be funny but not happening

that's a little too much for me

fringe salmon
#

yeah that is fair

fading spade
#

This was a problem with many games.... Not just this one LOL

fringe salmon
#

but towards your comment of the system noit geared towards vr, I wouldn't say thats the case

#

but the frames should be there and the hmd is quite nice

#

but with the curren trend I dont think anything ps5 is limited and not just timed exclusive

#

VR maybe for longer to sell more

barren pewter
#

watching gameplay on the PSVR2 of RE8

#

it looks pretty rough

#

low res
good frametime though
which I guess is what matters most of all

#

it's definitely playable, not saying it isn't that
but it is definitely subpar

#

I would like to experience these VR experiences capcom has made

#

ugh
I might if they haven't released on PC
when I can get everything I need to on clearance

fringe salmon
#

its not a deckard sure but its still ahead of a quest go or anything so I dont think subpar fits, there is so much worse out there

#

but hey maybe emulation for vr will work at some point too

barren pewter
fringe salmon
#

ahh ok

barren pewter
#

it works, but it's low res because the PS5 isn't...actually super impressive from a hardware perspective

#

and I feel that RE4R or RE8 could really stretch their legs as VR experiences

#

I really want to try some of the unique VR attachments

LIKE THE BAYONET FOR THE M1897

#

it was in the game files at launch
unused

#

and now it is

#

and I can't enjoy it

#

I believe there was also a G3 icon in the game files...don't believe that made it at all

unborn spruce

#

Eh. I'd sell and upgrade.

#

Steam Deck is never going to be as fast as a Legion.

#

What a small miracle that Big Picture exists.

#

Given I slightly downgrade and get double the framerate, reso, and storage with a bigger battery, removable controllers, faster hardware, bigger screen, and hall effect joysticks?

#

Yeah I'm fine sidegrading to big picture for that.

#

1440p on the Legion, boiiiii.

#

And it's an actual proper good resolution unlike the brain dent that is 1200x800 on the Steam Deck. Yeah cool can't use integer upscaling with that.

#

Coooooould have just used 1280x960 and we're good, but no Valve goes with a weird reso that means integer upscaling is just fucked.

hot spire
#

You talking up or down scaling?

unborn spruce
#

Up.

#

I mean ig there's downscaling as well but I was thinking upscaling.

hot spire
#

Also the legion is going to have worst battery life

#

Which already marginal on the deck

unborn spruce
#

Actually no.

#

Because integer scaling exists it's not nearly as bad as you think.

hot spire
#

Yeah resolution screen takes more power to drive

unborn spruce
#

True but it's less than driving the GPU.

hot spire
#

Regardless of you're render resolution

#

And

#

Look at the ally

#

The Soc scaling to power usage isn't great

feral drum
#

native res > up scaling blurry shit

hot spire
#

That 20% battery bump isn't 20% longer life because of the z1

#

It's the same soc as the ally

unborn spruce
#

Like for the screen size 720p is going to look fine, especially with FSR in the mix.

hot spire
#

ally and deck are the same size battery

unborn spruce
#

It... turns off.

hot spire
#

and even in low power mode the deck gets 30-40% more life

unborn spruce
#

Oh no I'm pretty sure it will.

#

That's baked into current Windows what with the S0 sleep thing.

#

You can set hibernation.

#

I'd be surprised if Valve didn't incorporate that into Steam.

If it's taking both then you can stack Arc and Solar without losing damage on either.

'Cause Dead Messenger + Fusion does like 900k damager per burst, and with double surge that's +50%.

Just kinda shows the degeneracy of switch usershavo

feral ferry
#

Nintendo in general is just becoming a typical storefront like Steam would be

#

They just need better hardware to look more appealing

#

Switch 2 will be imo, one of the main choices for porting games in the future

orchid prism
#

Isn't that a bit of an oxymoron? Can't become Steam if you only sell games for your own hardware

feral ferry
#

Sure they sometimes port games to PC

#

Nintendo just chooses not to

orchid prism
#

It's not. I'd argue they can't become Steam either. There's an argument to be made for Microsoft being at least two major platforms.

feral ferry
#

I am very convinced that Nintendo has more to gain by keeping their games strictly exclusive AND becoming an appealing platform

#

You think that 100 million+ units of Switch consoles sold are not appealing?

orchid prism
#

No not at all. I just think that "becoming Steam" implies you're not only selling games for your own ecosystem.

Steam never had their own ecosystem until the Deck, and it isn't locked.

feral ferry
#

Oh no no, not what I meant

#

I just meant "becoming Steam" as in a major very appealing storefront

#

Right now the issue with Switch is mainly hardware problems

#

Switch 2 will very much fix that, and will be a very interesting platform for all game releases, AAA and indie

When I'm done squeezing content from Starfield, I'll have to actually finish BG3. Got three characters I've been flipflopping between.

  1. Sorcerer with ALL the HP traits. Basically a heavy armour wearing dwarf with more health than Karlach.
  2. Spore druid who looks like he was pulled out of a bog. Green skin with the skin pigment thing for effect. But I've never been a fan of wild shape being a core mechanic for ALL Druids, so might scrap him.
  3. Plate wearing, charismatic warlock. Fully exploiting the cheese that is not needing strength or dexterity to be an effective fighter.

Always remember Bards can do damage with Vicious Mockery. This means it's entirely possible to spec into that and only that and when the big bad tells you his evil plan you can respond with "Your mother" and canonically that's enough to outright murder him on the spot.

Dunno what that is, but my avg is 70 and I'm happy with that

But yeah radeon overlay, keeps the metrics for me

hwinfo is nice now that they installed gpu busy and other presentmon features into it

#

really the only monitoring tool you need

feral ferry
#

Or.. I don't really want to monitor anything so.. Radeon software's built-in metrics are just enough

#

Not like I even know what the hell a frame time measurement is, nor what's a good frame time measurement

AMD DON'T DROP POLARIS

fringe salmon

they arent its a patch that amd did for not all cards

#

they did it before

#

it doesnt mean stuff is dropped

feral ferry
#

I gathered it's something like just dividing a second over FPS

#

But there's more to that I think, there's framerate measurements for DLSS3 FG that peeps do and everything

#

Not really sure what all of that is, don't really care as I don't do anything with any measurements

#

I only use hwinfo64 portable to check temps from time to time

#

But Radeon also shows temps for CPU and GPU so even then hwinfo is meh

Not sure what shop it was but did you see the glitch where you could view an entire NPCs shop inventory and take it by just looking at the ground outside? havo

feral ferry
#

Ehh

#

That's the same exact "bug" that existed since what, Oblivion?

quiet vault
#

and some weird stuff sometimes

bleak pike
feral ferry
#

A chest that you interact with when "trading"

fading spade
feral ferry
#

That type of code has never been changed lol

#

So if Bethesda map designer places a trader chest somewhere.. too close to the ground

bleak pike
feral ferry
#

You can interact with it and steal trader inventory

bleak pike
#

This i answered the question

fading spade
#

fair

orchid prism
feral ferry
#

I don't understand why can't they design an invisible, uninteractible chest and place them there

#

Like, the reason why the trader inventory is in that chest, is so you couldn't kill/pickpocket all their inventory

orchid prism
#

Because they're handy for debugging. And if they're properly out of bounds, it's a non issue.

#

But every game there's always one or two that stick out somewhere at an angle.

feral ferry
#

But Beth knows how to make textureless objects, and how to make them uninteractible

#

Yet.. they don't

#

Well, to be fair

#

I kinda like that bug?

orchid prism
#

Would be kind of silly to have to toggle textures on and off just to check on something.

feral ferry
#

It's a Bethesda tradition at this point to have a trader chest somewhere lol

#

And if you don't know about it, you'll likely never find it

#

Good for RPG players, some peeps want to cash in fast, it's a singleplayer game

it doesnt fill the screen on the monitor

and ETA said that the ratio is different on the phone

bleak pike
#

That's just apples weird shit with their output

vital wyvern

it doesn't fill because it's scaling bad

bleak pike

It's at a lower resolution

Pretty much

#

The phone itself is 16:9

vital wyvern

but it looks like the aspect ratio is close enough from the picture

It's literally just how apple does scaling

it is 16:9 its just not 1080p but 750p so it cant do integer scaling

Nexus says that whilst the mod's removal was "not a political statement or an alignment to one side or the other in the culture war", it reserved the right "not to host" the mod on its platform. of course

I mean…there are platforms for stuff that nexus won’t host

every Skyrim player knows what I mean

So, why fuck nexus?

#

Nexus provides a service to you

fading spade
#

Why are people getting so pissed off at pronoun options in a game? you spend at most 3 seconds interacting with that setting

feral ferry
#

They don't have an obligation to accept everything you want to host there

#

So, if I came over to your house, broke in, thrashed your whole apartment and refused to leave, how's that any different from the Nexus situation?

Someone uploaded something potentially damaging to their image, and they took it down

Aw, an edgelord

Steam needs to run in the background when playing games.....

It's the launcher / DRM for a lot of games
And it handles controller settings and whatnot

And it acts as a mod / content downloader

Good luck using the terminal commands and learning game ID numbers off by heart

Just learn off the ID for the games you frequently play
Or have a sticky note on your desktop to remember them

Hot take though: vertical desktops were better to use

#

They looked less elegant but they were much better to use

#

Especially is dual monitor setups like mine
Since it placed the previews side by side along the inner edge of both displays

#

So You barely has to move the mouse between them to move windows around
