[maiden tulip]

It was that good and a technical marvel

Indeed

[cold anvil]

powered by nvidia...

[maiden tulip]

I played the game on an amd gpu and it ran really well

Idk what they did but the forced RT was really optimized

Even on older cards it ran nicely

[cold anvil]

I have no say because I have no clue how it'll run on my rig

[bleak pike]

https://tenor.com/view/nvidia-logo-the-way-it's-meant-to-be-played-gif-4234169783701264822

[outer pollen]

I really wanted a special edition

[maiden tulip]

It ran fine back when nico had a 2080

Just had to lower settings cuz vram

[outer pollen]

I hate Pokémon now

[maiden tulip]

Hair quality over low makes the game run out of vram lol

On 8gb

Too much hairy npcs in the vatican

@cold anvil

vram is the main performance limiter in this game

[cold anvil]

Ohh ok

[outer pollen]

Nintendo is so fucking stupid

Giving a code with the game bundles

[cold anvil]

What did they do this time

[outer pollen]

I want the cartridge

Not a download code

[maiden tulip]

Depends on region

[small comet]

a gamekey cartridge?

[maiden tulip]

First party games are on cart fully

[maiden tulip]

I'm just glad its not

[outer pollen]

This says download

[maiden tulip]

Because i woulda wanted to buy a special edition

[cold anvil]

Oh :(

[outer pollen]

Why couldn’t they give us black and green switch

[maiden tulip]

But i already own a switch 2

So i dont want to

[small comet]

the real question is why they wont make a decent pokemon

[cold anvil]

Im on the fence on a switch 2, it looks like a good console but no games….

[maiden tulip]

https://tenor.com/view/blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-blah-gif-22583735

[cold anvil]

yet

[maiden tulip]

The hell do you mean no games

[outer pollen]

Dashi has been psyopd

[maiden tulip]

Mk world, dk bananza, pokemon za, kirby air riders, metroid prime 4 all releasing in the span of like 6 months

• the kirby forgotten land dlc is really good

[outer pollen]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-cute-follow-me-gif-4273618567139914195

I sleep!

[cold anvil]

Prime 4 looks good!

[small comet]

play cyberpunk on your switch2 and be happy or nintendo will sue you

[cold anvil]

Dk bananza looks good!!
Mkw looks.. not that interesting tbh..

[outer pollen]

Can it handle it?

[maiden tulip]

Like being like the switch 2 had no games make me thing people have no attention span

we literally have basically a game a month

The fuck else do you want xd

[cold anvil]

I need splatoon 3 with 120hz support with switch 2 mouse aiming

[maiden tulip]

Splatoon 3 did get free updates

Its not 120hz tho

[outer pollen]

wtf did they pull the non bundle switch 2 on Amazon? The only thing that shows up is the switch 2 Pokémon bundle

[maiden tulip]

But its 4k

[cold anvil]

That is cool

[maiden tulip]

I see the normal on amazon canada

I had to click on the mario kart one tho

Then there's a dropdown

Probably that

[outer pollen]

I don’t even see the Mario kart one

Is Kirby game good?

[maiden tulip]

I changed the url to .com

Itnsays out of stock

[maiden tulip]

Yes

[nimble current]

we have borderlands at home

[outer pollen]

I forgot the micro sd cards are also pricey

[maiden tulip]

Console has 256gb built in and the wifi is good now

You can just delete games lol

I just have the basic 256gb memory card + 256gb internal

Btw @outer pollen team group makes some cheaper microsd express

For the large capacity ones

[iron oak]

What even is borderlands 😭

[outer pollen]

I might just get it without a game

I don’t want just a digital code

[maiden tulip]

then why do you care about the price of the sd cards

If you're going full physical

?_?

[outer pollen]

Don’t some cartridges just work as a medium and the game still needs to install?

[maiden tulip]

the game key cards but it's not every game and you still have 256gb of storage

Its mostly third party ports

Which well you have a steam deck and a pc so those i'm guessing you'll just buy on pc?

[outer pollen]

Ah but then I gotta pay for stupid Nintendo online

I eep

[small comet]

hope i do get a refund for bl4

[maiden tulip]

do you even play online?

[outer pollen]

I’d play splatoon

[maiden tulip]

if you pinkie swear you're not preordering a game again then maybe the valve gods will hear you

[maiden tulip]

I'd have added you to my family plan but after what happenned with mango i dont want to lol

[small comet]

i didnt really plan to preorder i thought the order went through right on release time

[hot spire]

bad perf or bad game?

[small comet]

mainly perf, crashes and well the social media statements randy made

[hot spire]

i mean

[small comet]

basically if it goes on a sale like bl3 for like 20bucks for the super ultra edition id get it

not for the money they want rn

[hot spire]

the randy comments are on you for not reseaching the product

[small comet]

ik the product

[hot spire]

then you should know that randy is super out of touch and an ass

[small comet]

i knew hes out of touch just not this out of touch

the "make your own engine then" out of touch

[hot spire]

its nothing suprising after the last 2 launches

[small comet]

so despite randy saying "just get a refund on Steam" i cant get said refund due to the more than 2hours i spend trying to get the game to run well

[hardy merlin]

You are not eligible for automated refund
But if you told this to support they'd still refund you

[small comet]

how though

[hardy merlin]

Help > pick game > It's not what I expected > Request a refund > from list pick It won't start or Its framerate is too low, describe what happens in Notes and send refund request
Worked for me every time

[small comet]

thats what they denied

https://tenor.com/view/midnight-the-cat-stopped-working-midnight-the-cat-cat-cat-meme-funny-cat-gif-81113296414293415

[small comet]

i tried again this time linking to randys own statement to "just get a refund on steam"

[compact oriole]

lol

[maiden tulip]

Doubt

I've tried getting manual refunds from steam and it's never worked xD

[hot spire]

it has worked once for me decades ago

[maiden tulip]

Just because randy said steam refunds exist on his twitter doesn't mean that magically alters the refund policy

[compact oriole]

has to be extreme circumstances

[maiden tulip]

And these are not

[compact oriole]

subjective

[maiden tulip]

Steam never refunded me the crew and i'd argue that was way worse circumstances lol

[compact oriole]

ye cz its like a 15 yo game

[small comet]

its also completely unplayable now though

[nimble current]

its ok ubisoft decided nobody wants to play it anymore

[compact oriole]

ye but they cant refund you a giga old game that you potentially also owned for 10 years lol

[small comet]

i mean.... technically they can

[pure bear]

i got a refund for elden ring at like 3 hrs

[small comet]

i already had 3 or 4hrs just menuing in settings in bl4

and restarting/watching intro

oh ofc also shader compiling every few restarts and setting changes

[maiden tulip]

it took me 15 minutes to see that there were issues

3-4 hours thats on you lol

[small comet]

read

it didnt take me that long to see theres issues

thats the time i took trying to mitigate them

and ultimately gave up

[maiden tulip]

You shoulda kept an eye on your time

[small comet]

its also not really my fault steam counts literally any second the game executable is running as game time

[maiden tulip]

This is your fault

Its easy to keep an eye on it

And literally it took me like a few minutes to make the game run fine

If you still had issues after ovwr an hour you shoulda stopped there

Genuinely

[mellow garden]

I’d suggest a charge back if you’re willing to lose the entire account 😔

[compact oriole]

bros a bl gigafan and coped he could fix it

[small comet]

cant chargeback it was a sepa payment

[maiden tulip]

Even more of a reason why not to allow a refund

He won't learn unless he loses a few bucks

[compact oriole]

lol

[maiden tulip]

He'll preorder again xd

[small comet]

after bl3 i stopped being a fan tbh.

[small comet]

again i ordered this minutes after it released

[maiden tulip]

You bought bl4 day one

[small comet]

thanks for not having read before

[compact oriole]

thought you were super hyped for the game

[small comet]

thats literally not a preorder but ok

[small comet]

lol no

[maiden tulip]

Enough to buy it day one

[small comet]

i had some hope it wont suck like bl3

[maiden tulip]

Full price

On steam

[keen scaffold]

unlucky

[compact oriole]

dashi is on a mission tonight

[maiden tulip]

yes

[small comet]

she always is. she got a hate boner for me and doesnt read anything people write

[compact oriole]

[maiden tulip]

I only get annoyed at you sometimes

like yesterday

[small comet]

have you thought about... just leaving the discord channel

[maiden tulip]

no u

[small comet]

click on another and boom gone

no more me

[maiden tulip]

i have a right to be here as much as you

[small comet]

then ignore my messages

[maiden tulip]

i'll do what i want

This is a public channel

[small comet]

ok then ill hold you to it from now on

[maiden tulip]

Stop thinking i'm persecuting you or some shit

[vivid wharf]

move it to dms or else I'm going to have to get the mods involved😠

[hot spire]

they gotta bring back anthony

[maiden tulip]

[compact oriole]

whos anthony

[small comet]

i assume thats someone important from gearbox who got booted or left?

[hot spire]

he wrote 2 and ps

[maiden tulip]

It's ok we already have a mod threatening to abuse of his power we don't need 2 of em @vivid wharf

[compact oriole]

oh i assumed it was a character

[small comet]

ok yeah then pls bring him back

[hot spire]

his sister is tiny tina

[compact oriole]

i loved tiny tina in bl2

[hot spire]

they were internet famous before bl because of hey ash whatcha playing

[small comet]

ok please forward said threat of abuse of power to mark or raquel then or even our support email.

i dont recall any such threats but ok

[maiden tulip]

Sounds like you want me gone

[small comet]

no?

[vivid wharf]

we can have them split the community into 2 sides and vote for them every 4 years and hate each other

[hot spire]

anthony never said that he was fired, more likely they just didnt rehirehim because they though they could just ride all his work

[small comet]

it sounds like i wont chalk any future rulebreaks against me specifically when youre in your rage phase as unintentional rule breaks

ill count them like any elses actual rulebreaks

[maiden tulip]

sounds like you're just trying to shut me up

[sage ingot]

dude you are so annoying LOL

[compact oriole]

sounds like you guys just move on

[maiden tulip]

I Would like that he's the one who decided to bring this up again

[hot spire]

but tiny tina got ashly famous enough to score star role in a major aaa as aloy

[sage ingot]

then just drop it

[iron oak]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Borderlands/comments/1niofcy/randy_pitchford_tells_players_please_get_a_refund/

[compact oriole]

ye, within 2 hours

[small comet]

welp im happy now. steam refund request denied but given i even included the tweet now im more certain they at least considered it during the decision

[orchid prism]

Automatic refunds always get denied past the limit. Gotta ask for a manual one.

[small comet]

again how i though i did

cals recommended the way i did it which is through steam itself and saying "id like a refund" then writing a lengthy love letter note

[orchid prism]

If they refused a manual refund, that's a first.

[quiet vault]

[small comet]

idk how to do an automatic refund then

all i ever did was with that way cals described

oh wait does picking "it wont start of framerate is to low" matter?

i think i selected other

[maiden tulip]

Automatic refund is just the 2 hour limit

Manual you just did

[small comet]

i checked i also selected the game runs poorly option

either way then im still glad it was at least read and considered in the decision

[bleak pike]

https://tenor.com/view/yoda-star-wars-gif-8063259

[maiden tulip]

They only really make exceptions to it for stuff like TOS being broken

Like the hd2 psn stuff

Which technically broke steam tos

[small comet]

well it was worth a shot and i personally cared about is they considered randys tweet of "just refund it on steam"

[iron oak]

Yeah with the CEO or whoever that guy was being like “if you don’t like shitty fps refund” you deserve a refund

I will be angry for you

[rough stump]

it didnt let me refund a game i couldnt play a few weeks later :( reason i didnt refund earlier was because i sent a support ticket (which was ignored)

i had 30 minutes in the game 3 weeks later lol

[outer pollen]

What happened?

[maiden tulip]

nintendo thought i was getting hacked and blocked my shit and i had to call them and be like YES THIS IS AUTHORIZED

some automatic security shit

Was annoying

Mango is clearly my distant cousin

Totally

[cyan pewter]

[maiden tulip]

Like i couldn't edit my family group at all

[vivid wharf]

in truth Mango was actually hacking you, you just didn't know

[maiden tulip]

i bet he hacks in mario kart

Its how he kicked my ass

but yeah it was a bit awkward but nintendo support was helpful

Was annoying that they were like nowo to fixing this by chat tho

They wanted me to call em xd

[vivid wharf]

maybe it's by design, to avoid people saving money on stuff

[maiden tulip]

Then again i was adding an american account onto a canadian family share so... i kinda get why they have some type of security?

They basically just wanted to know if i knew him lol and that well i am the owner of the account and what country i reside in

So overall... fairly painless?

[vivid wharf]

yeah makes sense for it to be more secure like that

maybe if it weren't more secure people would be giving access for anyone easily, like I get access to spotify from my friends in europe

[maiden tulip]

The person i had talked to had told me that i should be able to do changes to my family
group without issues but i'd rather just not have to deal with that lol

[maiden tulip]

Their service does say that you're not georestricted tho so idk

[vivid wharf]

then Mango is a known hacker so they had to use additional security measures

[maiden tulip]

But yeah i had seen other users on reddit say they had issues when adding people from other countries

And having to call nintendo too lol

[maiden tulip]

@proper basin mango how do i hack my wooting

[sinful cobalt]

On note of The Crew is dead, community be like

https://thecrewunlimited.com/

[outer pollen]

@maiden tulip you own splatoon 3?

[maiden tulip]

yes

Nico does too

[maiden tulip]

Me a the crew owner

[outer pollen]

I lowkey wanna get the switch 2 just for that

But I want a special edition one

[maiden tulip]

i mean if you want to play we can play with you?

[outer pollen]

i take splatoon very seriously

Does it have salmon run

Like in 2?

The survival game mode

[vivid wharf]

you can make it even more special with custom shells

https://www.extremerate.com/collections/for-nintendo-switch-2

[little cape]

it was soo good im glad they did a trial free weekend

[outer pollen]

Now I’m debating switch

[maiden tulip]

Do it

[outer pollen]

They’re discussing discord on TMZ lol

[maiden tulip]

Y

[outer pollen]

Cause the shooting that happened here, the person talked about how they did it on discord

[maiden tulip]

breaking news: shooter uses imessage to text mom

[outer pollen]

That’s what someone just said lol

Like should we blame phone companies as well

[maiden tulip]

cant they just idk not allow fucked up people to own guns?

How about that pretty simple fix

[outer pollen]

Did you buy kill switch?

[maiden tulip]

no it was shit

Get the neogrip instead @outer pollen

https://www.savage-raven.com/products/savage-raven-by-skull-co-gripcase-for-nintendo-switch-2

Or the gripcase

https://www.savage-raven.com/products/savage-raven-by-skull-co-neogrip-an-ergonomic-grip-for-nintendo-switch-2

[outer pollen]

I have killswitch on steamdeck though

[maiden tulip]

Ywah but seeing dbrand's shit QC and shit reponse idk if i wanna buy from em

They fucked up their ghost cases, the first batch of steam deck cases, the killswitch

[outer pollen]

You think I should get Mario bundle or Pokémon bundle?

[maiden tulip]

Mario because mario kart has a bigger discount if you get it through yhe bundle

compared to pokemon

So if you plan on picking up both you save more

[outer pollen]

Big brain Dashi

[maiden tulip]

Yes

I did the math

You save 20cad (idk the pricing in the us)

But that's roughly 15usd

You can yse that 15usd towards idk a case or screen protector

I sleep now but if you need accesories recommendations just dm me @outer pollen

[outer pollen]

https://tenor.com/view/kitty-kitten-eepy-eepy-cat-cute-kitten-gif-2354054411599231174

@maiden tulip psyopd me

[outer pollen]

I genuinely only got it for Towa

[maiden tulip]

ONE OF US

[hardy merlin]

Congrats, you now own a console with no games

[maiden tulip]

ONE OF US

[little cape]

https://tenor.com/view/luffy-crying-gif-11917699240308028632

[maiden tulip]

the hell do you mean no games

[little cape]

how could you atak

first it was the flip phone return then 17 pro max now switch 2

[maiden tulip]

mario kart world
dk bananza
Kirby star crossed world
Kirby air riders
Pokemon ZA
Metroid prime 4

[little cape]

whos controlling you !!!

[maiden tulip]

litwrally 1 game a month

[little cape]

https://tenor.com/view/cattack-cat-dog-pspspsps-dabi-gif-7075136595750618581

[maiden tulip]

Every month

On top of making every switch 1 game run better

[hardy merlin]

Half of them not released yet
And you can't buy used Switch 1 games because you risk getting banned

[maiden tulip]

Mk world
Dk bananza
Star crossed world
Considering it's a 3 month old console

[outer pollen]

I preordered Towa looks like I’ll enjoy it more on a handheld

[maiden tulip]

Fast fusion

[hardy merlin]

Yeah, considering it's a 3 month old console it's pathetic
It's even worse than PS5 release
But at least PS5 has multiplatform games
Switch 2 thrives on exclusives, and should release with way more games on the start

[vivid wharf]

which is exactly why I got myself a ps5 to play an incredible amount of actual exclusives like: Bloodborne... and... some other

[maiden tulip]

the switch 2 has ports too lol

[little cape]

you bought the pro?

[maiden tulip]

I think people forgot the switch 1 launch

[outer pollen]

I got Switch 2 for this game https://youtu.be/VqnmugXO1mg?

[vivid wharf]

yeah I couln't resist the better GT7

[maiden tulip]

Switch 1 was literally just zelda which also released on wii u

-.-

[little cape]

iirc you were going to buy it a couple of weeks back i just didnt know if you did it or not

[maiden tulip]

This was a way better launch

[maiden tulip]

Play gt7 on my ps4 pro

Its good enough

[little cape]

hows the gameplay turn based combat?

[vivid wharf]

yeah I was considering slim vs pro and the chinese importers decided to crank up the price on slim

[maiden tulip]

I go bsck to sleep

Night

[outer pollen]

I know nothing about it the game lol just the character art is making me buy it

[maiden tulip]

I find it crazy that 1 release a month is considered not enough

[hardy merlin]

It's not

[maiden tulip]

Only metroid and pokemon on that list were also switch 1 games

[outer pollen]

If Duskbloods gets a special edition switch 2 I’m fucked

[maiden tulip]

At launch

[hardy merlin]

It's not enough to consider console that you buy because of exclusives

[little cape]

only reason i would buy a switch 2 is for metroid

but fuck nintendo

[outer pollen]

I think it’s kinda late; the first wave of Nintendo fans already ruined it for everyone

I LOVE NINTENDO!!!’

https://tenor.com/view/meme-bob-esponja-gif-2904459546447199840

[little cape]

to me this is crazy

[maiden tulip]

Idk but i just buy my one game a month and I'm happy with what's been releasing

[hardy merlin]

At least it would be fine if Nintendo didn't fucking ban people for playing their Switch 1 games

[little cape]

one of nintendo biggest games and you dont do a pokemon themed switch 2???

[outer pollen]

We can keep rage baiting Dashi so they don’t sleep

[maiden tulip]

Playing star crossedworlds and having a blast

[maiden tulip]

Just show nintendo proof of puchase and they'll unban...

[outer pollen]

Did this happen?

[maiden tulip]

There was like 2 cases on reddit

[hardy merlin]

THAT SHOULD NOT HAPPEN AT ALL

[maiden tulip]

Both solved by people just showing proof of pirchase

[hardy merlin]

Don't move the Overton window of what corporations can do with the devices YOU OWN

[maiden tulip]

Also i really wonder what kind of moron just decided to dump carts online and sell them back

[little cape]

imagine recieving switch one game as a gift but since you dont have proof of purchase you get perma ban

[maiden tulip]

The person who got it for you can give you that tho

[hardy merlin]

https://tenor.com/view/china-china-hetalia-aph-hetalia-china-banging-head-against-wall-gif-5504738638440799794

Yeah, there's no point

[little cape]

i mean thats dumb

[outer pollen]

Splatoon 3 or Donkey Kong Banana?

[maiden tulip]

Do i think it sucks tho? Yeah

[little cape]

if that person didnt keep the receipt then its GG

[maiden tulip]

Dk bananza

[little cape]

donkey kong

[maiden tulip]

Evn just a screenshot off a facebook ad is enough

[little cape]

let out your inner monke

[maiden tulip]

They just want you to confirm the serial number on the cart

And they unban

Like it sucks but it gets resolved relatively quickly

[little cape]

-sigh- another reason why i wont be getting the switch 2

https://tenor.com/view/noted-notes-gif-5990133

[maiden tulip]

Literally was a thing on switch 1 too

Its nothing new

[little cape]

but why switch 2 no get pokemon themed console?

gaming dead

https://tenor.com/view/pikaded-gif-25719770

[vivid wharf]

there are 100% skins for it

[little cape]

it aint the same

[vivid wharf]

though personally not a fan lol

[little cape]

https://tenor.com/view/dragon-ball-dragon-ball-z-anime-raining-vegete-gif-17856093

i just find it crazy one of their biggest games and nintendo like "whatever these rats will buy it anyways"

[hardy merlin]

Game Freak stopped caring years ago

[lucid brook]

most gamers don't own anything nowadays 😅

[little cape]

bery bery dark times

[lucid brook]

every game is digital and your access can be revoked any day

[outer pollen]

Dashi is about to explode

[little cape]

scarlet and violet was outter dog shit

[outer pollen]

[little cape]

i was so hyped cuz i enjoyed sword and shield and then that bullshit came out

[maiden tulip]

steam included

[lucid brook]

yes

[little cape]

bery bery dark times

not bery open mindeu

[maiden tulip]

but hey gaben is a good guy he'll totally let us keep access to our games

[outer pollen]

Would you say that’s the best game to get from the exclusives?

[maiden tulip]

DK

[vivid wharf]

good thing steam lets you download already discontinued games, like I have a full gta 3d universe collection which you cant buy anymore

[lucid brook]

that's just discontinued, you are still renting the license; they can just remove the game from the store completely

[maiden tulip]

Literally the only pc platform where you own your shit is GOG

gog is cool

I like gog

[lucid brook]

cannot get the game on gog? > 🏴‍☠️

[hardy merlin]

Sure, but there's a difference between that
And the fact that when you buy used game your console can get banned because someone dumped it before
Like, it should not matter at all to you what was happening to the cart before you bought it
Nintendo is overreaching again, and no one seems to care

[vivid wharf]

have there been games which were removed like that? cause for gta I see this

[little cape]

i need playstation to up their playstation classics so i can play duke nukem time to kill

[outer pollen]

Ok gonna get DK Banana and an Air Frier

[maiden tulip]

they hit the pentagon

[outer pollen]

What screen protector did you get

[maiden tulip]

Spigen

[lucid brook]

you cannot buy it, but the store page is still present; they can also remove the store page and revoke your access to the game - you will get an alert on your account if that happens

[little cape]

?

[lucid brook]

i had that happen with some sketchy indie games

[hardy merlin]

I only had that happen to beta accesses, which, you know, fair

[maiden tulip]

the crew is not a sketchy indie game yet its gone from my account

):

[hardy merlin]

Ubishit

[outer pollen]

Yeah I’ve had that happen

[little cape]

man i cant wait for companies like EA, Ubisoft and 343 to go

[maiden tulip]

Stoll shows that you can lose access to stuff

[maiden tulip]

AHHH

[maiden tulip]

There was only 1 boss fight where i noticed

[mellow garden]

You get some frame drops but it occurs more in docked mode. Very rare in handheld mode, for some reason.

[maiden tulip]

But i dont want to spoil

[orchid prism]

Heresy.

[vivid wharf]

just turn off the computer

[hardy merlin]

But it works

Or how he made an Apple console https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LlZkD3bbfM4

So, now I have occupied your morning, I'm gonna get a breakfast

[outer pollen]

I’ll hold off on Donkey Kong

I’m not a Kong head anyways

[mellow garden]

It’s a good game

Banana!

2 years ago it would be unthinkable

[lucid brook]

mouthful of technologies 😅

[mellow garden]

Many such cases

[compact oriole]

Some day it's convenient enough for me to switch. Tho as long as there are games that cannot be played I probably wont

Don't want a dual boot. Maybe if I need to upgrade for more space anyway I'll consider it

[mellow garden]

Nintendo's pricing model explained in one image

[outer pollen]

I regret not buying all the disgaea games

[hardy merlin]

This year I only dual booted for Battlefield 6
Technology is 90% there, ease of access... well, a bit less
Point being that 2 years ago no one would even think that all that will ever... just work
I'm excited what it'll be in 2 years

[outer pollen]

Do switch 1 games automatically run better on the 2?

[orchid prism]

Depends on the game, but on paper? Yes.

[nimble current]

would be pretty sad if they didn't

[hardy merlin]

Higher FPS yeah, much stronger chip
Better graphics - some need Switch 2 upgrade

[orchid prism]

Some devs may have put in some weird/hard FPS limits to try and smoothen the framerate, and those games would need a Switch 2 specific patch to override that.

But yeah - It's just like overclocking a Switch 1. Faster processor/GPU means the FPS can go higher if allowed.

[mellow garden]

Switch 2 is the best handheld currently

[hardy merlin]

Steam Deck
Can play PC and Switch games

[nimble current]

the best future paperweight currently

[hardy merlin]

Deck? Oooo, believe me, it'll be used for years and have its batteries switched several times in my case

[nimble current]

no the s2

[hardy merlin]

Ah, yeah

Well, it's only a matter of time until it'll be modded, so...

[outer pollen]

Cfw 3DS was so Poggers

[hardy merlin]

And now you have Luma, which is plug'n'play basically

[outer pollen]

What’s a switch 2 Game-Key Card?

I hate Nintendo so much

[hardy merlin]

Basically a cert on a cartridge that allows you to download game from eShop
But also sell it later down the line

[outer pollen]

Ohhh ok hmmmm

Will a game that’s on Switch 1 and 2 be able to get upgraded into the 2 edition?

[hardy merlin]

I believe for most it's a DLC

[outer pollen]

Literally nickel and diming us

[hardy merlin]

[outer pollen]

So game key cards are like the ultimate fuck yourself move you can do?

Servers get shutdown in the future and you just have a little cartridge left that can’t do anything?

[nimble current]

welcome to the future

[outer pollen]

[mellow garden]

The game key cards are $8 per unit

The 64GB cartridges are around $20 per unit

The 64GB cards are also slower than the internal storage

Which is why some games, such as Star Wars Outlaws, don't have a proper physical release.

[outer pollen]

I just don’t feel comfortable giving them that kinda power over what should be physical media

[nimble current]

shoulda been born 20 years earlier ez

[mellow garden]

Unless Nintendo provide a 128GB cartridge that's actually on par with the internal storage, physical is going to be rather poor on the Switch 2 outside of first party games.

[outer pollen]

That’s the reason I got it for the physical releases

I love cartridges

[nimble current]

the worst culprit back then were cd games you couldn't unstall to drive

[mellow garden]

Anything first party and the stuff Nintendo publish physically will be on cartridge

[hardy merlin]

Which is puzzling because fast flash storage chip is like $2~3 for 64GB, 128 is maybe $5~6, and there's little to no other electronics inside
So they are getting quite a markup on cartridges

[orchid prism]

To be fair that's the case for all Switch 2 titles.

[mellow garden]

Hades 2, for example, the physical copies are being published by Nintendo.

[nimble current]

company must exist and have running servers for you to still play the games

[outer pollen]

So they don’t work offline??

[nimble current]

"ownership"

[hardy merlin]

Only games that are fully on cart will work, so CBP2077 for example
But no updates and no DLCs

[outer pollen]

For some reason I own Xcom 2 x2

[orchid prism]

If Nintendo shuts down the online service for the Switch 2, then no cartridges are going to install and unlock the DRM. Cause there's nothing TO unlock the DRM.

Nothing new really. By that point you've got a hacked console anyway.

[mellow garden]

The Switch 2, for me, is a first party machine. While some of the third party games are impressive, the state of their physical media annoys me.

[outer pollen]

Yeah I was getting it to buy third party games

mmmmm now I don’t know

[mellow garden]

The physical situation isn't looking much better on PlayStation sadly. A lot of mandatory download discs.

Xbox is effectively a dead platform for physical.

[outer pollen]

I only like physical on Nintendo

[hardy merlin]

It's still to early to consider Switch 2 for that, for now you should get it only if you're interested in exclusives

[outer pollen]

[mellow garden]

Mario Kart World and Super Mario Party Jamboree have sure been fun

[outer pollen]

I guess the new fire emblem game but that’s a bit aways

No metal gear delta on switch??

[hardy merlin]

Given performance even on high-end PCs... doubt it

[outer pollen]

I wonder what happens if you own a game key card and the game gets delisted

[fathom swift]

[vivid wharf]

gaming

[outer pollen]

I bought the switch 1 version for the game I wanted and I’ll return the switch 2 version

Since one is cartridge other is game key card

[compact oriole]

Isn't the sw1 version worse then

If you own a sw 2

[compact oriole]

Less res and/or fps

[keen scaffold]

Yeah it was real fun once again, i was a CBT tester and haven't played since that closed before launch, but it was refreshing again. Wish i had some fun money put aside for it, would love to continue my current progress

[outer pollen]

I don’t know

I just don’t like the idea of the game key card

[compact oriole]

I'd check if they're different versions

Since Nintendo is selling 2 versions. It's up to the dev

[hardy merlin]

You mean Towa and the Guardians of the Sacred Tree? There's only Switch 1 version anyway

[outer pollen]

No for Raidou

The Mystery of the Soulless Army

[vivid wharf]

yoo I did it too

took me longer, but I was doing every wish I can

also I thought last boss would actually have more phases, but okay

ending cinematic was so good

[fathom swift]

Last boss was pretty fun ngl. Didn't take me too long like some other bosses

I also completed the hunters journal

[vivid wharf]

yeah fights with this boss are always pretty cool, cause it's nimble like hornet

[vivid wharf]

that's sick
I have multiple mobs I never even encountered lol, and some areas I couldnt get to even though they seem to have a secret there on the map

maybe tied to some wish

[fathom swift]

Somehow the act 2 version was harder for me

[fathom swift]

There was a secret boss I'd have no clue how to find, but nuu gave me a hint to where it is. After that it was just maggots and sandworms, 3 enemies overall I couldn't find myself

Simply because I didn't know they were killable lol

[vivid wharf]

lol what were they? like "birds" and stuff?

[fathom swift]

No, the bilewater maggots, sand worm hazards and some other maggot that only appears in a specific room above the blasted steps when you play music

[vivid wharf]

ah yeah I remember the maggots in the cave, I actually dropped down and killed them without music, cause I was dumb

[fathom swift]

They run away otherwise

[scarlet marlin]

I will try and finish the game before I go to Taiwan

[fathom swift]

[compact oriole]

How's this possible. It was day 1 Xbox game pass

[scarlet marlin]

real homies buy the game

[vivid wharf]

article says 1.5m of game pass downloads

[compact oriole]

I was trolling cuz of the other failed AAA releases using it as an excuse for bad sales

[vivid wharf]

with soundtrack cause Christopher Larkin deserves it

[compact oriole]

Honestly in this game I didn't notice as many bangers for boss fights

I'll have to listen to the soundtrack after I finish

[vivid wharf]

I liked most of act 3 fights

[scarlet marlin]

im waiting to listen to the full soundtrack once im finished with the game so I get the nice surprises in new areas and boss fights when the new music kicks in

[vivid wharf]

after finishing raging on some of them ofc

[outer pollen]

I’m waiting for a physical release

[fathom swift]

Are you among the 1.6% that completed the journal?

[quasi gazelle]

by chance if anyone knows. valorant devs removed function called rawinputbuffer from ingame settings. it affects aim in a way that i play worse when its on. but in config file it is still disabled and ive put it on read only
do u think this means it can still be off then? game uses ue 5.3

[hot spire]

he needs less debounce so its prob faster

[quasi gazelle]

before someone spreads some misinformation answering to me, this was the answer to someone in other server

[tired kernel]

dos anyuone have profile for Fortnite?

[hot spire]

they removed it because its always on now

[quasi gazelle]

ive read it yes, im asking not that

[sinful cobalt]

i have 448 games on steam and i dont know what to play

[hot spire]

they removed it because it was a hook for DNA cheats

[hot spire]

coal llc

[cyan pewter]

@late notch prx 2-1 gx

[sinful cobalt]

lmao

[late notch]

what a result

[grizzled quarry]

Why would they remove raw input buffer

[quasi gazelle]

they said its because the setting is "more perfomative" most likely talking about the fact that game is stuttering for some ppl who play on 4k/8k hz mice with rawinputbuffer on. for me personally i have 0 stutters with 4khz or 8khz and rawinputbuffer off. however with blind tests i aim much worse with rib on so them removing option to disable it is horrible.

[grizzled quarry]

I never noticed a difference

Just strange they would remove it as an option though

[quasi gazelle]

okay. me, my friends do.

[brave talon]

anyone got a wooting discount code?

[scarlet marlin]

DISCORD DISCOUNT

[quasi gazelle]

yes it makes no sense coz its affecting aim. ppl played for years with rib off and r used to it. now they force them to change for no reason

when they could just do nothing and let ppl choose. but im not surprised at this point. every fps game i touch turns to shit in time coz of braindead devs

[grizzled quarry]

I always thought rib on was best, especially if you use high polling

[quiet vault]

no screaming pls

[sinful cobalt]

its just my guess but, valo wanna change the game for the pro's and not for the casuals

[scarlet marlin]

[grizzled quarry]

Never experimented with it much myself

[quasi gazelle]

yes some my friends like it more on, some like off. idk why remove option to off it now..

[grizzled quarry]

Fuck your preference ig 😭 😭 😭

[quasi gazelle]

like i explained in the screenshots more than 30 times i had games when it turned itself on and every time i was aiming like shit when it happened when before i was aiming perfectly

[quasi gazelle]

yes they dont care

[quasi gazelle]

https://youtu.be/Gn9ZezCg7y8 this is my aim with rawinputbuffer off u can see

ah i thought clip was not urs

and u r like rating it with ur radiant emoji u know so i was like does he think that this kill makes someone radiant or what xD

[quasi gazelle]

yes bro i believe i just didnt see it was ur clip like i said

so i was just jking about the clip being radiant

[compact oriole]

bro is playing stretched, hes obv a pro

[quasi gazelle]

not rly

i see so many noobs playing it

[sinful cobalt]

me who hit Silver 2 in valorant ranked in an early season after release

[grizzled quarry]

Me 😭

[compact oriole]

that was a joke..

[quasi gazelle]

ik

[grizzled quarry]

Stretched just feels normal on tac fps, native is bleh

[compact oriole]

or rather facetious, since i cannot comprehend the cope of using stretched

[quasi gazelle]

i answer seriously to jokes automatically idk xD

[grizzled quarry]

I dont get how its cope but alright

[vapid lintel]

Enhances the rubberbanding

[quasi gazelle]

for me its easier to hit smaller targets that move slow than fast targets that r bigger so i like native in valo, cs, etc

[compact oriole]

because the main reason people do it is because they believe its better in any way

[grizzled quarry]

Its preference 🤷

I prefer bigger faster targets over twigs that move slowly

[quasi gazelle]

yeah its preference. like true stretched u have less fov and targets r bigger on ur screen, for many its easier to aim like this

[compact oriole]

i guess but its such a specific option that was taken from boomers that made up a misconception that its easier to hit your targets

[grizzled quarry]

Yeah easier no

[compact oriole]

i guess thats the part that annoys me about it

[hoary condor]

1440 1080

Best

[grizzled quarry]

You get less fov and targets move faster

[grizzled quarry]

However they visually are bigger

[vapid lintel]

More cushion for the pushing

[grizzled quarry]

1920x1440 for me

[compact oriole]

ye and the mouse vert and horizontal speed also change to each other

[grizzled quarry]

Yeah

[hoary condor]

dpi800 sens0.4

[grizzled quarry]

Its just what im used to, all the hours of cs and rust on stretched

Gotta have it for val otherwise it just feels odd

[compact oriole]

ye but why not change the habit

im actually asking to understand the rationale, im not tryna be an ass about it

[sinful cobalt]

me who plays tact fps in 16:9

[grizzled quarry]

Idk it just doesnt look or feel as nice to me

[compact oriole]

[grizzled quarry]

I like how the game looks in stretched more, hitting shots feels more fluent

Gunfights feel faster paced in stretched which is more fun feeling for me

[compact oriole]

i was never the tac shooter (like cs) kinda guy

[quasi gazelle]

i mean its not misconception or something its literally depends on person

its like saying low sens is misconception

[compact oriole]

well, its placebo

[quasi gazelle]

i mean its preference. if they say its better for everyone then yes its misconception

[quasi gazelle]

its not placebo coz its changing fov and target is bigger so it literally changes something. but if that will make u aim better depends on each person for some it will for some not

[compact oriole]

if you actually did try to reach the same skill on one or the other, you could easily reach it. i dont think the res would hinder you either way

[quasi gazelle]

for me i aim worse on stretched in cs

[quasi gazelle]

for me it does

[sinful cobalt]

cs2 moment

[hoary condor]

Of the time of the grid shot.

[compact oriole]

well youd have to put in dozens of hours if not more into stretched to find out ,since playing stretched does also fuck with your mouse

your sens is dependent on the res and ratio too

[cyan pewter]

rib was in the settings when i played like 2 days ago

[compact oriole]

if you try to draw a circle on a stretched monitor itll come out an oval

If you have to ask, it won't be relevant to you I guess.
(Bloodlines 2)

[compact oriole]

youre right

but maybe it was smth i wasnt aware of that i would be interested in

man but thats really bad for optics, that youre admitting you were gonna sell half the game to have people pay to complete it

[quasi gazelle]

yesterday it was, not anymore

[hoary condor]

？？？

[quasi gazelle]

wtf am i reading

[cyan pewter]

i play with rib on

[compact oriole]

apparently not the full convo

[compact oriole]

context ^

[grizzled quarry]

Nah not really

However if you prefer one over the other you will likely perform better on preference

But if you took the time to get good at both, there wouldnt really be a skill difference

[grizzled quarry]

All honesty native would be better because of the higher fov allowing you to see more

[compact oriole]

theres no way that if you or i decided to just switch it up today, that we couldnt reach our old peak with practice

[grizzled quarry]

Given time yes correct

[compact oriole]

well obv ye. not within 10 days

[grizzled quarry]

But that won't change preference

[compact oriole]

well not necessarily, but you might

[grizzled quarry]

Even though I perform basically the same on native and stretched I still prefer stretched

[compact oriole]

preference is also kinda based on habit. kinda similar to controller vs kbm for fps

[grizzled quarry]

Well controller vs kbm is different

Considering one input typically gets aimbot when facing the other

[quasi gazelle]

good for u bro, im all for it if u like it

[outer pollen]

Nintendo tactics

[quasi gazelle]

ah okay i was reading like

if u play stretched u see half of the game or something

[grizzled quarry]

Aim assist aside, kbm is a superior aiming input in 99% of situations

Controllers one advantage is continuous horizontal smooth movements

[compact oriole]

ofc. im so bad at controller aiming, its not even funny

[grizzled quarry]

Otherwise a mouse is better in essentially every other scenario

[grizzled quarry]

I was pretty good at it without AA

[grizzled quarry]

I also know how to abuse AA so I can just get free aimbot on games that have it

[compact oriole]

why is bro posting his life rn?

[grizzled quarry]

[hoary condor]

I have a lot of accounts, and pinging is not available there, it's a tokyo ping.

[cyan pewter]

nrg is waking up

[outer pollen]

Zamn!

[verbal nymph]

If it's actually revealed I'll be surprised

[hot spire]

been testing for a while and it never got better XD

[verbal nymph]

fuck it, gonna be awake for the next 6 hours I guess

[trim rock]

Maybe a bit worse I don't know, it sure was vibes skating around an untextured world

[sinful cobalt]

whats this ?

[verbal nymph]

tldr, valve dekard/steam frame are going to get announce prop in 6 hours

this could be why meta didn't do quest 4 this year too, plus other various issue.

[mellow garden]

Meta are probably killing some of the VR stuff anyway

[sinful cobalt]

tbh quest 3 is pretty recent

yeah Quest 2 is from 2020, quest 3 is 2023

[hoary condor]

lol

[sinful cobalt]

thats why is no quest 4 this year

[verbal nymph]

fair

still wanna see that valve headset

[hot spire]

also for inside out internal processed vr, not much can get better

you cant really improve without massive cost increase

quest optics are already really really good

[trim rock]

I doubt we'll see any deckard tonight

I posted this yesterday

[trim rock]

Is this satire

[maiden tulip]

#🎮│game message

[maiden tulip]

No

[trim rock]

😐

[fierce bay]

Valve done really messed up with these new terminals on cs2

[sinful cobalt]

the price yes

40$/terminal

[trim rock]

Hell yeah buy them expensive skins

[sinful cobalt]

https://steamcommunity.com/market/listings/730/Sealed Genesis Terminal

[fierce bay]

They were $40 yesterday

[sinful cobalt]

they are selling for 7.50-7.65 euro

[fierce bay]

But I seen on Reddit, ST FN reds go from $1500+ USD depending on float rating (yes, they add overpay). Non-ST FN reds go for $300-500 USD.

[orchid prism]

[fierce bay]

It’s valve’s way of artificially controlling the baseline value of items so they get a huge chunk of change when people buy the skins from the terminal and a larger piece of the pie when people trade on Steam marketplace. At this rate, valve will ban 3rd party cs2 marketplaces (they’ve done it for other games) by end of year so they make all the $.

[sinful cobalt]

tbh if they do that the game player base gonna die

[small comet]

i doubt it

[fierce bay]

Unless they make it so you can withdraw your Steam balance.

It’ll pop off if they do

[sinful cobalt]

atleast 200-300 000 players are just there to trade skins nothing else

and we dont count the bot farms

[fierce bay]

China doesn’t have a stock market to invest in, so they rely on stuff like cs2 market trading.

[hardy merlin]

hewwo

[small comet]

i meant i doubt they can ban non steam marketplaces

[fierce bay]

Also, the weekly challenges are getting to be too much. 600xp total for 400 awp kills in deathmatch on defusal group maps…

[small comet]

i kinda feel like given how profitable cs skins are that the marketplaces just find ways around it and operate more hidden if necessary

[fierce bay]

Better off just playing 1 game of comp or prem

[fierce bay]

Valve wants more $ because how profitable the skins are

[small comet]

yes but i have a doubt theyd be able to fully ban third party marketplaces

[fierce bay]

You can’t even trade in Val

[fierce bay]

They’ve done it for other games

[sinful cobalt]

u buy skins for 50-200$ that u cant even sell

[small comet]

like as long as steam allows trading skins people can work around anything really

[fierce bay]

You can but the moment they change the ToS rules to restrict 3rd party sites completely, it’ll remove most of it. Because anytime that money is involved, they act quick on enforcing rules.

What are you talking about?

[trim rock]

Uhhuh sure, aren't there still a shitton of sketchy third party skin gambling sites around

[sinful cobalt]

you are really out of touch with how cs works xd

[fierce bay]

Absolutely

[fierce bay]

I’m convinced he’s just talking to himself

[trim rock]

Valve will keep turning a blind eye then

[small comet]

i feel like theyd be able to have enough IP's, enough Accounts and enough resources to run computer vision automation that clicks through steam so it just looks like skins move to random accounts all from random IPs

[fierce bay]

Not if they can’t get a piece of the pie

[sinful cobalt]

i mean they made billions just from cases and keys soo

[fierce bay]

And they’ll make way more with the terminals since red ST FN’s are $1500+

[sinful cobalt]

for that they need to change the market system

Counter Strike dude

[fierce bay]

But I said what I said. IMO won’t completely restrict 3rd party sites unless they add a Steam balance withdrawal system…but I foresee that being the next step so they can get more $ and control the market, scams, bots, etc much better.

[fierce bay]

I’m telling ya, dude is talking to himself 😂

[sinful cobalt]

imagine, valve do that and someone unboxes the 1 mill karambit blue gem

[small comet]

theyd also have to remove the balance limit

[trim rock]

Steam wallet withdrawals will probably never happen

[small comet]

and at that point theyd kinda be a bank almost

[cyan pewter]

cs market is getting pumped rn tho

[fierce bay]

Absolutely

[trim rock]

But maybe, just imagine if we have SteamPay to pay for shit online

[fierce bay]

Not my vanilla knives. They’ve all dropped in value about 15% since the EG holo Bs

[cyan pewter]

did i just see $125 in bitcoin

[fierce bay]

Is dude flexing a $150USD crypto portfolio? Lolol

[cyan pewter]

the situation is lowk kinda crazy

[fierce bay]

I don’t even want to show mine

[sinful cobalt]

that dude is out of touch with the world

[fierce bay]

I started investing in crypto back in 2013 when bitcoin was only $100

[hardy merlin]

You have 0.001BTC... congrats?
But please, stop spamming those

[sinful cobalt]

[verbal nymph]

Imagine valve becoming payment processor lmao

[fierce bay]

Can you ban him @hardy merlin

[sinful cobalt]

yeah just ban him xD
