anyone who has played ultrakill would say that’s a good analogy but w/e

i played ultrakill

[gusty oar]

your pfp is a furry in a jacket facing the side, we know that already

[still spire]

https://www.rockpapershotgun.com/why-play-a-fascist-unpacking-the-hideousness-of-the-space-marine

[compact oriole]

these people live such a sad existence..

read a lil bit through it

[nimble current]

so having sort of read through the authors lengthy stroking of his semantic ego, his gripe with space marine 2 is that it's too faithful to the current version of the WH40K lore

[compact oriole]

how do these people write up stuff like this and think: ye this is a job well done and not at all a non issue i dreamt up in my tiny brain because i cant help but see the whole world through the lense of my weird political views

[compact oriole]

gamers are nazis and in this game you play space nazis, so its bad

is the gist of it

because its just their first step to get to a "real journalism" position in their mind

theyre not here cz they have a passion about it or care. theyre just here to inject their idiotic views on others with opinion pieces

[nimble current]

I mean sure the lore might not be the most self aware or eloquent in its satire, but then there are also no rules on how a writer/artist has to deal with such things in their creation

[compact oriole]

bro its FICTION. all fiction gotta mimic reality in the minds of these idiots

[nimble current]

if WH40K wants to be a tone-deaf caricature of military fascism it has every right to be just that

[compact oriole]

not enough token characters and soft themes? the story is about fanatic space nazis lost in the sauce? story bad

[nimble current]

but it comes off as too sincere, people might get the wrong idea

if there's no marvel jokes inserted between the lines to remind people its not ment to be taken too seriously they might take it too seriously or something

[compact oriole]

nah man, they made the characters relatable. evil people have to be one dimensional

so that everyone knows theyre evil

[nimble current]

its like these people take issue if fascism in fiction is portrayed in any other way than a true to life depiction, heck even helldivers got some flack for portraying the subject in a too lighthearted way

even with the satire and self-aware dialogue of that game it was apparently not enough to come across as a parody

[compact oriole]

honestly i think this is beside the point. i see no issue to use any themes, no matter how "evil" or unethical.. its fucking fiction

these people think fiction need to mimic reality. that fiction has to have the same social issues or characters and themes need to be the same as irl

[nimble current]

the argument that its somehow too evocative of some themes in the reality we currently live in is ironic given these are the types of people who'll often insist on fictional media having a more "accurate" and up to date portrayal of real-world societal issues

[compact oriole]

seems to me this was just to rant about gamers again.. bad games like dustborn or concord are being rejected while hd2 and sm2 did really well. so that means that gamers = incel fascists

it goes full circle

ye and we are wrong for it

youre tryna use logic. but it doesnt apply. that shit only goes one way

[nimble current]

whatever happened to the idea of not watching/playing something that you know isn't to your tastes, let something cater to a particular interest group

[compact oriole]

theyre tryna project their ideals onto others acting as thought police and getting a kick out of that power. thats all it is

[nimble current]

I mean the guy has the right to shit on it best he likes, but we all know what these kind of "discussion pieces" tend to result in

[compact oriole]

ye but passing this as "news" or some kind lol

[nimble current]

it'll be a flamewar between the worst people on both sides and nobody will have learned anything and something about toxic fanbases blabla

Baldur's Gate 3 publishing chief calls out Ubisoft's 'broken strategy': If gamers need to get used to not owning games, 'developers must get used to not having jobs'

[scarlet marlin]

https://tenor.com/view/big-oof-size-small-medium-switch-gif-17355313

[fringe salmon]

I mean game devs losing jobs has been happening the entire year

It just hits the people not responsible for these decisions

[vapid lintel]

I have gotten very used to not owning Ubisoft games, and have no intention of changing that behavior

[fringe salmon]

I do think saying publishers instead of devs would make his point better tbf

[pure bear]

ubi talking as if they have games worth owning while their stock drops off a cliff is funny

[left oracle]

*Sad anno noises* although they are a bit separate

and they made the one of the older games(the only "online only" one I think) playable offline

but ubisoft in general is a huge nope

[grizzled bramble]

It's time for..

[maiden tulip]

• Horse armor

[fringe salmon]

And this is time limited and not even just a skiing has additional functionality. People wouldn’t go so crazy if it was just a skin

[rancid hearth]

I really don't see the issue, as long as it's just a cosmetic there really is no harm

people will end up wasting their money regardless of whether it exists or not

just look at drugs and alcohol

[nimble current]

financially supporting your local drug dealer is more respectable in this day and age than financially supporting arsevision blizzard

[rancid hearth]

this can apply to anything that could be considered a objective waste of money

in the end enjoyment for some people is derived from spending
companies just exist to make money, and they will do whatever will sell

if cosmetic items didn't sell, they wouldn't make them

oh no how dare they ENJOY????

and not buy our shitty new games that are worse

:/

i like the wording, "recreational purposes" like its weed lol

[nimble current]

games aren't for the end user to enjoy they're for stockholders to enjoy the profits from selling them

[solemn vine]

Mmm the US copyright office

Same train of thought as making copyright last 75 years mmm

Make money from your product off of your initial consumers' grandchildren yesss

[pure bear]

it was 40 years but disney lobbies to keep extending it whenever steamboat willie is due

[solemn vine]

I checked, at least according to the history of US copyright laws on copyright.gov it was already 56 years

Then it got extended to 75 when Steamboat Willie was 48 (pretty close)

And then to 95 when it was 70

95 years, there are more people who remember World War 2 than people who lived to see Steamboat Willie come out and then enter public domain

Shit's wild, I don't get why copyright laws have to protect a company's license on a product for over three generations

For how much I hear about laws trying to encourage competition and innovation this sure does let companies just sit on their asses and keep profiting off of nearly century old products

[pure bear]

because they have the money

just assume anything newer than steambot willie will never go public domain

[digital dawn]

smiling friends peak

[sinful cobalt]

soo i just finished the campaign of Black Ops 6 and waow im supprised

One of my favorite campaign since cold war, tho the random horror elements in the story was weird but cool

[proper basin]

115 went hard like always

[little cape]

is the new cod good?

havent really liked cod since bo2. Cold war wasnt bad though

[sinful cobalt]

the campaign is better than mw22 and mw23

[little cape]

im not a huge cod fan to begin with so i'll take your word for it

[sinful cobalt]

if u just wanna try the game out buy xbox gamepass

[grizzled bramble]

BO2 might be the last COD campaign i've played lol

[sinful cobalt]

2019 had a nice campaign

[little cape]

pc gamepass?

[sinful cobalt]

i mean overall mw22 was fine not bad
cold war was nice as well

[sinful cobalt]

yeah

[little cape]

nice if its 11.99 i'll give it a look

[sinful cobalt]

idk whats the price of the gamepass

[little cape]

does if upset you im more of a gaylo fan than cod fan

[sinful cobalt]

idk what is that

[pure bear]

except fortnite

[sinful cobalt]

i grew up on cods others on halo

[little cape]

i remember back in the day the og cod fans would rip on halo

[sinful cobalt]

i mean i dont like halo at all so

[little cape]

cod is good though my first cod was cod 3 and then i loved cod 4

[sinful cobalt]

i tried a few halo campaign via the Master Chief edition but yeah its not my cup of tea at all

[little cape]

thats fair

its not for everyone

[sinful cobalt]

soo thats how i dont like halo

the shooting is weird and stuff is weird

[little cape]

i love everry inch of halo till 343 took over....

[pure bear]

i remember peeking around the corner at a neighbors house watching his brother play halo

[sinful cobalt]

i mean i grew up on ps2, as our family doesnt had the money for an xbox

[little cape]

i had ps2 and xbox

i'll never forget the ps1 and ps2 loading screen

[sinful cobalt]

i mean i played on a ps2 till 2012 or 2014

i got my first laptop in 2016

and i enjoyed every minutes of that laptop till one morning its just died on me

[grizzled bramble]

Will probably pick up Legacy of kain

[nimble current]

for me halo will always carry the feat of shittyfying first person shooters on pc

[sinful cobalt]

i mean im a cod fan

[nimble current]

only really played the early cod games, they were decent enough but nothing that really left an impact on me

[pure bear]

i remember my first laptop yeahh

[tacit tulip]

CoD was one of the first games I played

[pure bear]

shit was cool

i want to be happy again

[tacit tulip]

Black Ops 2 is my favourite one

I played both Halo and CoD

[sinful cobalt]

idk why does everyone like bo 2

for me thats one of the most forgetable cod

[tacit tulip]

I like the sniper in the game

I just run around and kill everyone with a sniper

[grizzled bramble]

Yeah the yellow one or the black one whatever those guns where called

[nimble current]

sounds so weird to me how some games released in the early 00s were ya'lls first gaming experiences

[tacit tulip]

Not early 2000s, early 2010s

[sinful cobalt]

i mean i played cod 2 at the age of 5 soo

back in 2007

[nimble current]

I was 17 when the first cod ever released

[tacit tulip]

The earliest CoD game I played was the original Modern Warfare

I didn't like it

[nimble current]

that's still the best one of those I've played

[cursive dragon]

Average 2002 gamers frfr 🫡

[sinful cobalt]

indeed

[cursive dragon]

I'm an 05

[tacit tulip]

2009

My dad let me try GTA 4 and I didn't stop playing it

[nimble current]

the year I moved out of my parents place

I member building a pretty dank pc to play crysis on, could average like 25fps on very high

[cursive dragon]

True tho

[fringe salmon]

nah

60fps and I accept the meme

[nimble current]

member when GTA was a top down perspective game

[grizzled bramble]

Had to force AW2 to 30fps for a specific achievement and maan nah

Okami is acceptable because of how it's made

[nimble current]

around 80-90 fps and I'm pretty happy, rarely felt that I've needed more

[grizzled bramble]

Yeah but if you want to play competitive then there's another story

[nimble current]

but I grew up on way worse fps than that on average

[buoyant osprey]

Can people define "good enough"? Good enough for what?

[nimble current]

I left that particular cesspool of the online gaming world years ago now

[grizzled bramble]

I remember when i tried to play GTA4 on such a bad pc which couldn't even hit 30fps it was such a choppy mess, replayed it once i bought a new computer lol

[vapid lintel]

Good enough for the primary purpose gaming fulfills: having fun

[nimble current]

last time I played a "competitive" shooter in a semi serious fashion was in the early days of team fortress 2

[pure bear]

i thought it was "distracting us from our bleak hopeless life"

[nimble current]

GTA4 was also infamously poorly optimized for pc

[pure bear]

huh

[nimble current]

I actually never got around to playing GTA4 because of how bad it was on pc

[grizzled bramble]

It was ok once the fps was acceptable lol

[tacit tulip]

GTA 4's pretty decent

[grizzled bramble]

The ragdoll effects where quite special

[nimble current]

played a ton of gta3 and san andreas back when they were new

[grizzled bramble]

Played a ton of Vice city

[nimble current]

3 was the biggest mindblow going from top down view to full 3D open world

[grizzled bramble]

Even LCS & VCS

[drifting rose]

I did not like GTA 4, the driving felt awful and it seemed more interested in its psychotic attention to detail over providing a fun sandbox

[nimble current]

missed out on vice city too

[tacit tulip]

I've only played 4, 5 and a bit of SA

[buoyant osprey]

I can have fun at 30 fps but it for sure diminishes the fun and even comfort.

[nimble current]

first one I played...was the first one

back in 1997

[grizzled bramble]

Yeah it felt quite wierd with those ''delayed'' inputs

[drifting rose]

yeah me too, it was amazing to be able to shoot innocent people rofl

[nimble current]

yeah I hated the car physics too, even if they were supposedly more realistic

[grizzled bramble]

GTA 1 & 2 where quite fun even before we had such 3D games lol

[tacit tulip]

@drifting rose I prefered GTA 4's driving to GTA 5's driving. 4's driving is much harder compared to 5's driving which I like

[nimble current]

software rendered 3D was a vibe

[grizzled bramble]

The input is so wierd on GTA 4

[nimble current]

a very pixelated, chugging vibe

[grizzled bramble]

Yeah

[tacit tulip]

It felt normal to me, but I use A to sprint and LB to jump in alot of games So I might be used to it

[nimble current]

I've only really had two of those revolutionary moments in gaming, first one was putting a diamond monster voodoo 3dfx card in our pentium 100mhz in 1997 and witnessing opengl and glquake in action, the second was playing crysis ten years later

suddenly being able to run a 3D game at double the resolution I was used to with improved visuals and probably like double the framerate too just broke my kid brain

pc hardware used to make quantum leaps in technological improvements and performance every other year back then, now its a gradual increments game

[tacit tulip]

Nowadays, the 4060Ti is worse than the 3070

And games look worse than they did 3 years ago

[grizzled bramble]

Played a ton of Far Cry too those Ragdoll effects where special then lol

[drifting rose]

I find that kinda amazing actually, everything looks so plastic atm

[nimble current]

also nowadays consoles are basically just a worse pc

back then they were completely different hardware altogether and the "same" game on different platforms could be totally different games using different engines and even gameplay

they just had to make due with the hardware limitations they had

[tacit tulip]

The only exclusive games are PC games

The Xbox Series X still has no exclusives

[drifting rose]

now it's just anti-competitive practices (exclusives lol)

and people are cheering sony on for more exclusives!

do they need to validate their purchase that badly?

[nimble current]

consoles gradually morphing into pc's has kinda been their downfall

[fringe salmon]

well people who want no exclusives also make fun of sony for not having exclusives so people just want to hate something

[nimble current]

I mean I don't like the practice of exclusives at all but I still understand how it was a strong incentive to buy a particular platform

[tacit tulip]

Ages ago back in the 2010s, I had both consoles since I liked both CoD and Halo

Even though CoD was on Xbox

[nimble current]

I've basically been pc only since the 90s

[tacit tulip]

I'm very new to PCs

It was only 2 years ago that I played a game with a keyboard properly for the first time

[nimble current]

couldn't afford both a current gen console plus games and a pc in my family so me and my brother got to choose either or

[tacit tulip]

I still prefer controller for most games

[nimble current]

needless to say pc won

[grizzled bramble]

Some games are just better with controller and some with KBM

[tacit tulip]

I made my family lose alot of money when I was younger

[velvet onyx]

when i first got a ps2 the difference between it and my ps1 was so insane i figured graphics couldn't possibly get any better

[nimble current]

am kinda the opposite, I still don't own a controller

[velvet onyx]

nor that they would need to get any better - i wasn't too far off with that thought ;D

[nimble current]

been looking at the 8bitdo hall effect ones though even though I don't really like controllers

[tacit tulip]

I play keyboard and mouse for CS2 and I use a controller for the rare times I play another game

[nimble current]

at least the sticks should still be fine after years of collecting dust from neglect vs potentiometers

[grizzled bramble]

Got the 8bitdo pro2 non HE and it's been good, might buy a HE one so i've got some for fighting games when friends come over

[drifting rose]

I really like the dualsense, in supported games it gets some cool extra features. like the trigger behaves like a gun trigger in shooty games

[nimble current]

most controllers are kinda too small for me as well, have to sit with my arms too close together and use awkward hand grips

[solemn vine]

Games could've looked better than PS2

Just look at the GameCube

That's good enough

[grizzled bramble]

How's the battery life with dualsense?

[velvet onyx]

I know, that statement wasn't be taken literally

[nimble current]

for me being used to pc games and graphics consoles always just looked worse and slower

[solemn vine]

I'm just saying walk it up to GameCube so it's not super fuzzy anymore and boom now we're in business

[drifting rose]

no idea, I run it only with the cord attached

[velvet onyx]

but me as a kid going from ps1 to ps2 it was mindblowing

[drifting rose]

this particular controller is very old, I bought it modded with hall effect triggers. I doubt if I tested it, the battery life would be representative

[nimble current]

playstation was pretty cool when it first launched tho, was well ahead of the competition

[solemn vine]

Tbh I feel like games don't have any reason to not be 60 fps these days, like the only reason games aren't 60 is bad optimization and/or trying to overblow graphical fidelity

[nimble current]

friends had playstation and n64

[solemn vine]

I will take slightly lower graphical fidelity for double the framerate

[nimble current]

seeing proper 3D games on consoles was kinda wild after being used to it on pc for some time, albeit with software rendering at the time

[velvet onyx]

back in 2000 most people would have said the inverse

[solemn vine]

It's not 2000 anymore

[velvet onyx]

i thought thats what we were talking about. if we are talking about now i agree :p

[solemn vine]

Graphics aren't barreling upwards now like they were then

Eh yeah I was just kinda dropping my piece on what I saw people talking about earlier

[drifting rose]

xbox 360/ps3 era was the absolute worst, 15 FPS and people thought the human eye can't see more than 60

[nimble current]

was a good era for game variety though

[drifting rose]

oh the games were epic but the performance slurped anal grease

[solemn vine]

I mean it's better than now but I still think game variety was higher in the PS1/PS2 gens

[buoyant osprey]

30 fps gives me nasty eyestrain depending on the game

[nimble current]

laughs in core2quad and 7900gt/8800gt

[solemn vine]

PS1 was sick cuz people still made 2D games

[velvet onyx]

in the 7th gen games started going for more gritty realism aesthetics and i just don't vibe with it

makes that whole era look really depressing in my own headcanon

[drifting rose]

suikoden 2 is my fave example of a 2D title on the ps1

super good game

[solemn vine]

JRPGs and horror games were on a real tear during those generations too

Platformers weren't dead yet

[tacit tulip]

I liked the depressing look, it fit the stories of most games at the time (Far Cry 2, GTA 4, Black Ops 2)

[velvet onyx]

i just never liked those games :p

[nimble current]

I haven't had any interest in platformers/2D games overall since the late 90s or so

[velvet onyx]

i think during that gen i spent way more time on my psp/ds than my ps3

[solemn vine]

From Soft was releasing awesome games at that time before they realized they could make every game just like Dark Souls

Character action and 3D action adventure were in their infancy with a lot of different interpretations at that time

[drifting rose]

I played King's Field 3 not too long ago, good game but it was clearly FromSoft before they were good lol

[solemn vine]

Armored Core

[buoyant osprey]

I tried Shadow Tower or whatever and wasn't a big fan

[drifting rose]

I finished that one too

[solemn vine]

Armored Core 1 is such a sick game

[buoyant osprey]

Without save states I'm not sure I could stomach it lol.

[solemn vine]

Armored Core 2 is pretty good, 3 is great

Haven't gotten past 3 yet cuz I've been playing other stuff

[drifting rose]

I'm good at mapping in my head in games, weirdly shit at it IRL

so I got used to shadow tower fairly quickly

[nimble current]

member when consoles didn't have save states

and when they finally got them you had to pay for it via memory cards

[drifting rose]

I remember lending Resident Evil 2 from a friend but I didn't have a memory card yet

[velvet onyx]

plenty of games had battery save backup before ps1 memory cards

[drifting rose]

that was the most intense shit ever

[zinc wadi]

u guys are remembering my youth, that was 24 years ago

[solemn vine]

Final Fantasy VII-XII was a very crazy run

[nimble current]

I wouldn't say plenty, but most studios making long intricate rpg's and the likes would have the good grace to add it

but all of a sudden consoles moved to CDs and you couldn't do that anymore

[solemn vine]

I don't even like a lot of those games but they sure did a lot of new stuff with the series, especially on the PS2 where they started their whole "let's make every game a different genre" thing

FFXI was a dang console MMO

[nimble current]

its kinda nuts how they released long story driven games like RE and it basically was unplayable without another investment in card storage

[solemn vine]

I mean buying storage is probably one of the least insane things you could be charged for ngl

[velvet onyx]

i do remember leaving my ps1 on because lol no memory card but it was a good solution.. good memories of taking memory cards over to my friends house and copying saves or certain games with 2 player functionality which loaded both you and your friends' files

[nimble current]

nowadays they penny pinch you with paid internet subscriptions, the cycle of abuse continued over the generations

[pure bear]

fr

"game has online multiplayer but you have to pay"

[drifting rose]

well, time to read the communist manifesto

[nimble current]

asking 70 bucks for the game itself certainly isn't enough

[solemn vine]

They just offloaded that cost onto a single universal storage unit instead of building it into every game

[pure bear]

i dont want to get consoles when that exists

[nimble current]

who's gonna pay for that server maintenance and everything

[pure bear]

yeah the poor nintendo execs

they need to fund their lawyer army

[velvet onyx]

for me i got thje console for christmas and the memory card for my birthday the following february 😆

[solemn vine]

And I mean PSX discs were often cheaper than N64 carts so

And the N64 still made you buy a memory pack for some games

[drifting rose]

PSX had a crazy huge library whereas the N64 had maybe a dozen good games

[nimble current]

also who's gonna pay for the fallout when a hundred million+ gaming investment falls flat on its face, tell ya one thing it ain't going to be the corporate execs

[pure bear]

c o n c o r d

[nimble current]

selling our yachts? nah the gamers can stomach another $5 price hike on their subscription fee

[solemn vine]

Mmm yes Sega

Please charge me 70 dollars for a remake of a PS2 game with very little actually new content that means anything, and sell it with 30 dollars of day 1 DLC, and then sell content that was in the original game six months later for another 35 dollars

Mmmm yes Segawh

[drifting rose]

my schadenfreude about that will never subside, no matter how much sony wrings their customers over that complete and total failure of a "game" designed in a boardroom

[pure bear]

soulless "GAS makes moneeyyy"

[solemn vine]

Please sell me hard mode and NG+ in the eighth game in your series behind additional paywalls when the game is already ten dollars more than the rest of the series and is barely worth that price hike on its own

[nimble current]

its super satisfying how it hits the higher ups but I still sorta sympathize with the devs who put close to a decade of work into something only to see it tossed in the bin

arguably they should have done more research and playtesting, but still, sad situation for those on the ground floor

[solemn vine]

It sucks but from what I heard that game was fueled by like straight up megalomania from the execs so it probably never would've succeeded

[worthy charm]

Hello, can someone playing cs help me ?

[drifting rose]

that's probably how you spend 8 years developing cookie cutter slop

[solemn vine]

I really would like to think the game didn't fail because the developers were incapable of making a fun game on their own merits

[nimble current]

still, could be worse

your studio could get bought up by microsoft

[solemn vine]

Could be the Until Dawn rerelease

[drifting rose]

probably not. they can still put it on their resume, since it counts as a completed project. except maybe the director LOL

[solemn vine]

I wouldn't even be surprised if Concord wasn't that bad

[nimble current]

if microsoft had owned arrowhead they probably would have shut them down after helldivers 2 shipped 8 mil copies

[solemn vine]

I doubt it's particularly good but the game probably isn't so shit it should be the greatest failure since like the culling 2

But the marketing sure sucked ass and it definitely released into a market that just didn't want it

[buoyant osprey]

Whenever I see a new game get revealed that looks mediocre such as when Concord was revealed I always think about the developers of them. Surely many of them know from the beginning that it's gonna flop? I'd hate showing up to work for years only to make something that you know won't be good or succeed.
That's why working for these big companies sounds so draining when you're just a drone with minimum say.

[solemn vine]

And it wasn't F2P

[nimble current]

yeah probably a pretty demoralizing workplace for many with a greater capacity for critical thinking

still, at least they got their paychecks for those years

[solemn vine]

I'd hate working for these big companies too but I also understand that finding a career as a game developer sucks ass and people don't wanna risk being able to put food on the table to go indie

[nimble current]

thank fuck for indiebros

probably the majority of games I've played the last 5-10 years or so have been indie or at least smaller independent studio releases

[solemn vine]

Thank fuck indeed but it is absurdly absurdly daunting

[drifting rose]

I played Mouthwashing last week, there is no way this would have been anything but an indie title

[solemn vine]

Gaming's gotten too big for its own good

[drifting rose]

not perfect by any measure, but it's one of only 2 games that understand the psychological aspect of psychological horror (that I've played)

[solemn vine]

Ever since PS3 smaller to medium sized studios have been getting less and less sustainable

[nimble current]

valheim and deep rock galactic sits as #1 and #2 on my most played titles on steam

[solemn vine]

These days you're either indie or triple A

Either that or you've been around as a modestly sized company for ages or you're funded by your government or somethin

[nimble current]

most triple A game I've played in recent memory was red dead redemption 2

and its almost everything one should expect from a huge studio with near infinite resources to do their very best and plenty of time to realize it in

except for the part where rockstar basically shunned it into a corner shortly afterwards because printing money with their darling IP is where its at boiii

[drifting rose]

eh, someone cared, that deserves applause these days

[buoyant osprey]

The most fun one can have as a game developer seems to work in a smaller tight knit company that you joined or started with friends that manages to make decent to good games.

[nimble current]

its equally as sad as it is hilarious how a studio could release such a mammoth epic once in a generation game only to just sorta fuggetaboutit

had it been ubisoft there woulda been at least 16 sequels/dlcs at this point each one worse than the last

[drifting rose]

remember how we all laughed at horse armor?

what fools we were!

[nimble current]

in hindsight its actually kinda surprising how bethesda of all the studios were the first to really think of that

[drifting rose]

then they tried again with paid mods, thank FUCK that didn't catch on

[nimble current]

and not one of the usual suspects like actishittion blizzard, electronic abominations or ubishit

[drifting rose]

they are unimaginative

I don't think Ubisoft ever did anything risky

[nimble current]

sure miss the days where those 3 could be spoken of in a remotely positive way

yes even EA was regarded as a mark of decent quality at one point in history

[drifting rose]

EA sometimes does risky stuff but it's always the wrong idea

[nimble current]

what games do they even make these days, I haven't really been paying attention to anything they do in ages

[drifting rose]

madden every year lol

[nimble current]

kek

didn't they basically retire the fifa franchise

[drifting rose]

what the fuck?

[nimble current]

recall seeing something about them not wanting to pay the license for it anymore

[grizzled bramble]

Dragon age & plants vs zombies 3 from EA soon

Didn't they rename it?

[nimble current]

would make sense

[grizzled bramble]

FC 25 or something

[drifting rose]

EA Sports FC 24 featured exclusive partnerships with the Premier League, La Liga, Ligue 1, Bundesliga, Serie A, and MLS.[73]

[nimble current]

I mean they basically already were by changing the last digit on the title for each year

[pure bear]

they lost the rights no?

[grizzled bramble]

Oh EA makes all the sports games

[drifting rose]

ahahahaha I rarely root for EA but FIFA hasn't been able to find another partner for their shit license

[nimble current]

EA sports is in the GEAM

[nimble current]

good, fifa execs might have to lift their fingers further than for the nearest bag of cocaine to keep the binge going

[drifting rose]

EA are cunts but FIFA are some of the actual worst people alive

[nimble current]

most of organized sports committees are tbh

[trim rock]

didn't FIFA try some crypto shit

[nimble current]

sounds on brand

few things keeps my faith for humanity going these days but people coming together to give the concept of NFTs a collective go fuck yourself was heartwarming to witness

[tough jay]

Considering the corruption that lead to the last world cup, and the arrests that followed, perfectly fine organisation.

[pure bear]

fifa is spotless clean yeah they would never

[little cape]

damn i wonder what your favoutite game is

[pure bear]

osu probably

[sinful cobalt]

i dont have a favorite game tho

i like all of my games

[little cape]

chad response icl

the games i have with the most hours i hate them. Except for cyberpunk, lethal company and sons

[nimble current]

I have sons of the forest

[little cape]

https://tenor.com/view/sds-gif-20505870

did you play the early access or finished version ?

[nimble current]

played a couple months before 1.0 released

from what I could tell not much changed in 1.0

I still have no idea what am really doing

[little cape]

i played at the very beginning and they changed so much through the year

[sinful cobalt]

[little cape]

i would recommend it

i can give you tips if you want

[nimble current]

me and my brother played it coop and we managed to build a cabin but most of the time we just ran around getting lost and swarmed by the cannibal things and dying over and over so we kinda got fed up lol

[little cape]

holy crap 400 hours already

that good huh

[little cape]

yeah the more days you rest the more enemies spawn

[fair eagle]

If i want to play shooter games should i better get the 60he or the 80he. I would get the 60 but the escape Button is in my opinion to near to the Button 1 isnt it?

[sinful cobalt]

i mean mw22 and mw23 multiplayer was okay ish

and most of the playtime for me was camo grinding and weapon level upping xd

[nimble current]

can barely find any useful resources like health or weapon upgrades so its kind of grueling

[little cape]

all about preference. if you have the room on your desk get the 80he. If you like small keyboard get the 60he+

[fair eagle]

My desk is 160cm × 80cm

[nimble current]

my steam best of

[fair eagle]

Would be enough

[nimble current]

tho I play plenty of games outside of steam so not fully representative of all my favs

[little cape]

mmmmmg for resources i recommend building a cabin near the water and building fish cage traps

[nimble current]

I got like 500+ hours into snowrunner but got that on epic so

[little cape]

the axe is your best friend in that game till you find the katana

theres different axes you can find in that game as well

[grizzled bramble]

Will be interesting to see the Steam year in review

[little cape]

i have no idea to be honest its based off how you play. i prefer the 60he+ but waiting to test out the 80he

[nimble current]

maybe we'll revisit it sometime and git learnt a bit more, not really big on games where you kinda have to look up how-to's on how tf to play it though

I have way too many hours into world of warships and star citizen too but there's no metrics on either of those

[sinful cobalt]

btw 2 of my more liked games ever

[grizzled bramble]

Will be interesting to see this stat

[little cape]

well let me know if you want some advice or tips without spoilers and i'll be happy to help

[little cape]

how you have that many hours in wallpaper?? you edit?

[sinful cobalt]

no i just search for good wallpapers

[little cape]

ahhh i see sometimes it hard finding a good one

right now im using this one because the blue is easy on my eyes at night

[drifting rose]

[little cape]

spooking is a cop

[cyan pewter]

you got banned for showing emulators?

[little cape]

its not the games i installed

[pure bear]

nintendo discord maybe lol

[little cape]

isnt it breaking tos?

[cyan pewter]

i got receipts

[sinful cobalt]

no?

[little cape]

true

[compact oriole]

emulators themselves arent inherently illegal

[little cape]

i ported my roms legally because i owned the games.

[cyan pewter]

right so theres nothing wrong here

[little cape]

yeah....yeah..

[cyan pewter]

its only when you start pirating the games

[little cape]

i just wanna know why bro ss my wallpaper so quick

[cyan pewter]

[little cape]

👀

[little cape]

yeah i would never do that........

[cyan pewter]

discord mods are however against discord tos

...

[little cape]

[nimble current]

my guy basically posted proof of him ripping off discord

[little cape]

bro delete the image

[cyan pewter]

you want me to pay to stream games at ledgeable quality?

[little cape]

i already ss it for you

[sinful cobalt]

dont stream on discord ?

[nimble current]

hey am not saying nitro isn't a ripoff in itself and I don't have any personal issues with you doing it

but if an actual discord employee sees that they probably won't be too amused

[little cape]

what are you guys talking about spooking is a law bidden citizen

[sinful cobalt]

a friend of mine got insta banned for that

[little cape]

i didnt see any criminal activity

[pure bear]

no officer

[novel estuary]

for streaming on discord? 🤔

[nimble current]

I saw lowkey based if somewhat reckless behaviour

@scarlet marlin

[proper basin]

@maiden tulip

[maiden tulip]

can you crank up resolution scale and give me a 4k result

:P

basically my goal was to be able to see how the game compares as both the 7900xtx and the 4080 are similar. I remember the XTX having like... way more performance in previous COD games, just wondering if that applies to the new engine

[maiden tulip]

I'm 12% less pixels than 4k so i'll just make my render scale 112%

@proper basin

[bleak pike]

My game runs alright tbh

But dlss does help

[proper basin]

i just change a few settings down and get a nice boost 👍

had to rollback my nvidia driver cuz of the water flicker however

[bleak pike]

Oh I don't think I need to

I'm getting 80-120 on ultimate 1440p

Or wherever it's called

Extra?

[proper basin]

also windows update borked my games for EAC launch lol

extreme?

[bleak pike]

That's be one

[maiden tulip]

DLSS is broken

Literally will give you less fps

[proper basin]

turning off upscaling also had some weird effects for me

[maiden tulip]

Same with FSR

upscaling's just borked

[proper basin]

would set my res to 50% scale and move me to the lowest preset for some reason

[maiden tulip]

Also DLSS literally vanished from the graphics options in nico's game lol

[bleak pike]

I've never trusted fsr

[maiden tulip]

He only sees nvidia image scalig now

[proper basin]

fsr 3 is fine

[maiden tulip]

Looks fine to me, just has the same issue as DLSS in this game

[bleak pike]

What even is that

[maiden tulip]

@bleak pike try turning upscaling off

[maiden tulip]

The newest version of FSR?

[bleak pike]

I did, it's similar but less consistent

[maiden tulip]

nintendo embracing retro games by making current gen look retro

[gusty oar]

webfishing is so goddamn amazing

[gusty oar]

me i fucking love boi

[proper basin]

@maiden tulip btw that 500 MB update for bo6 broke dlss i heard. Probably why its gone for nico

[crystal juniper]

begin drinking the T1 grape sodas, we must push t1 to victory

@unkempt ocean wtf they gave t1 yone, ashe, renata

[unkempt ocean]

ik

im so nervous

[crystal juniper]

this better be some big brain plan

otherwise gen g is trolling

[unkempt ocean]

nah they are cooked

[crystal juniper]

t1 got great draft. Now it's just execution

[pulsar prism]

i got faith in my boys

t1 are usually kings of terrible drafts

[unkempt ocean]

HAHAHHA

gg

[crystal juniper]

zeus at worlds vs gen g choke at worlds is legendary

missing the point blank dive is impressive

wait 6 grubs?

almost

[unkempt ocean]

geng is playing perfect otherwise tho

[crystal juniper]

yeah i think gen g playing well but t1 got better comp

yone is 2.5 items now on back, i don't know how gen g match sidelane

[pure bear]

its AC fishing as a game basically? i wishlisted it i think

[unkempt ocean]

geng plays perfect

3-1 most likely

[pulsar prism]

Hope so for my pickems sake but I've watched too many worlds to count t1 out

[crystal juniper]

I don’t think cait kindred was the right combo lol

[pulsar prism]

I knew the t1 troll draft was coming

[unkempt ocean]

what just happened?

geng got too comfortable

[pulsar prism]

check him pc

[crystal juniper]

that was some disgusting back to back picks

[unkempt ocean]

oh my god

[crystal juniper]

they're so snowballed up

what does gen g even do now? They're so far behind

[pure bear]

ff go next

[pulsar prism]

would need a miracle to come back maybe a baron flip/steal

[light lion]

They actually get punished for ff'ing I believe

they're supposed to play it out regardless

[crystal juniper]

yeah i feel it has to be a baron win or somehow they steal hextech drake

[light lion]

sucks cause usually even if you're not a professional you can tell when it's just over

[crystal juniper]

otherwise t1 going to stack hextech drake and win with that

[light lion]

that gold gap

Jesus

t1 always locks in during worlds

[crystal juniper]

no it's fakers genius plan

play awful on these meta picks all year then worlds comes and people don't ban you out

[light lion]

gg

games over

[crystal juniper]

t1 at worlds man

[unkempt ocean]

ashe man

[light lion]

I wonder when fakers gonna retire atp

I'm saying like 3 years from now

I guess we'll see cause his current contract ends soon

[crystal juniper]

so erm anyone know wtf is the deal with the kindred prio

first t1 picked it and did nothing, but next game gen g ban it out

[light lion]

probably just trying to be mean

I mean her winrare is not very good currently

even if you're like her challenger winrares good

all those people in challenger are otp

[crystal juniper]

there has to be something weird in scrims or something

[light lion]

there's been lots of kindred picks in worlds before

to troll baron fights

or dragons

[crystal juniper]

yeah but prio kindred and ban from gen g is bizarre

there's only been one decent kindred game all of worlds

[unkempt ocean]

ill take it honestly

their coach getting paid off

[crystal juniper]

give me my t1 world champs 5x jacket please

my wallet is ready

[light lion]

idk either

tbh I don't think it matters who geng bans

t1 always cooks worlds

they always seem bad early on then go to worlds winning easily

[crystal juniper]

t1 winning this worlds would be pretty insane

would be 2 years in a row where t1 basically barely made it into worlds at last minute

then go on to win entire thing

[unkempt ocean]

nah lowkey

its just the draft

geng's is really odd

[crystal juniper]

t1 finding the gragas to counter jax has been so good

[unkempt ocean]

i fully expected t1 to get fked in draft

[crystal juniper]

they don't have to ban jax now unless gen g wastes a ban on gragas

[light lion]

I feel like t1 is really flexible on picks unlike some other teams

they constantly play random shit outside of esports matches

if you ever watch their streams

tbh I was hoping to see like hle in worlds

[unkempt ocean]

PYKE

[crystal juniper]

this is just a hype game

[unkempt ocean]

masterclass incoming

[light lion]

this one

is gonna be one sided again

😂

[crystal juniper]

draft is pretty fair this time though

both teams have a decent angle

[unkempt ocean]

which probably means geng wins lmao

but its too early

[crystal juniper]

kerias pyke is the big x factor because he stomped hard with it last series

[light lion]

t1 early is really strong

I think this one is gonna be fun to watch

my guess is kinn wins top

and they get early prio on objectives

well nvm

LMAO

[crystal juniper]

seriously wtf is this faker glow up though lol

that was perfect ahri play

[light lion]

games over already

[crystal juniper]

lehends lmao

[unkempt ocean]

masterclass

[light lion]

hard to recover this kind of loss

[crystal juniper]

this late game jax insurance is scary for gen g

normally pyke going to fall off but t1 has jax for late lol

[light lion]

4.5k gold lead

Jesus

[crystal juniper]

lmao that lane snapshot

[light lion]

everytime I watch t1 regardless of kills

they just tend to gold lead

off cs and camps

[crystal juniper]

t1 before worlds was awful, the meta was so bad for them

they were always down then won a fight mid game to barely bring it back even

[unkempt ocean]

thank you lehends

ur service will not be in vain

[light lion]

bro is all the deaths

💀

his contract ends next month

not even a turret from that herald

omfg LMAO

[crystal juniper]

i feel we've seen so many teams get baited into fights with that herald train

the fadeaway double kill

[light lion]

oml

this game really can't go much worse so far

besides the faker kill

good ass play from geng

[unkempt ocean]

ok last fight now

[light lion]

soul prio is still really strong

[pulsar prism]

big

[light lion]

along with gold lead

games still like 50/50 atp

what you guys think outcome is of this one

geng or t1 atp

[unkempt ocean]

OMG

[light lion]

wtf

[unkempt ocean]

T1 Finals

[light lion]

no cap geng threw that fight

[heavy gull]

incredible

[unkempt ocean]

T1 finals

[light lion]

that was pathetic

[unkempt ocean]

3 years

[light lion]

like genuinely geng threw the fuck out of that

they had that shit in the bag

[crystal juniper]

never doubt t1

[unkempt ocean]

broken streak

omg

[light lion]

lowkey watch that last fight though

geng was in such a fucking huge spot

and they just dipped out

[pulsar prism]

my pickems

[unkempt ocean]

Gen G can play perfect, but perfect is not enough against T1

[crystal juniper]

the faker for nexus trade executed perfectly

[light lion]

faker for turret

faker for nexus

😂😂

[crystal juniper]

riot must be celebrating

[unkempt ocean]

ya omg

[crystal juniper]

their finals viewership just skyrocketed

[unkempt ocean]

almost missed worlds btw

[crystal juniper]

keria smurfed this series

[light lion]

I honestly thought at the end there t1 was gonna lose that

[pulsar prism]

all that gold lead for gen.g was on canyon

[light lion]

they had the worse late game comp and geng was playing so well late til that fight

jax moment

[crystal juniper]

nah t1 had jax so they were always possible late game win

[light lion]

tbh

[crystal juniper]

but honestly it wasn't even jax, it was keria that last fight setting it up so well

[pulsar prism]

true and zeus always goes god mode in these worlds game after pranking during seasonal games

[crystal juniper]

yeah zeus somehow always turns into worlds best top laner at worlds

[unkempt ocean]

holy fk t1 is so good man

all 5

[crystal juniper]

i can't wait to buy my t1 world champs 5x jacket

[unkempt ocean]

insane

[pulsar prism]

the blg vs t1 matchup is gonna be hype

bin vs god mode zeus

can't wait

[light lion]

No am I insane though the backline of geng was there with so much dps and they just walked off

[pulsar prism]

anyway now that it's nearly 5:30am ima go sleep

thankfully it's a public holiday today for me

[crystal juniper]

if you rewatch that final fight it was just keria smurfed there to save the fight

gen g had the perfect pick

but keria somehow cc'd them so long at the side

[light lion]

yeah I just rewatched

that duel cc chain

oof

[crystal juniper]

keria is such an enigma. He looked awful all year then worlds hit and he's suddenly worlds best support again

[light lion]

also why'd they pick a English speaking French woman with a heavy accent then a translator

[crystal juniper]

he has some renata games before worlds that looked awful

[light lion]

to Korean back to Korean then finally to English

back to French accent

[unkempt ocean]

ya ikr

wtf is this interview

[crystal juniper]

isn't this in paris? Where is this semis

yeah paris, that explains it
