@little cape

[cold anvil]

Tell us how it is! No spoilers obviously…

I wont be able to get it until next week

It’s my most anticipated game of this year

[maiden tulip]

I can tell you how it is

I'm like 4 hours in

Combat system is ass

But the atmosphere and the setting are great

The psychological horror is on point

The combat is the big let down

[cold anvil]

How would you say it is compared to silent hill 2 remake?

[maiden tulip]

Nothing alike

Silent hill f plays with some wierd dark souls like lock on sytem

[cold anvil]

Oh that sounds odd

[maiden tulip]

You may not like it

[cold anvil]

If the monsters can freak me out like they did in the remake of 2 then the games good enough for me

[maiden tulip]

I still enjoy the game despite the combat system

[cold anvil]

Silent hill 2 had me on my toes, don’t think I was every afraid of a game like that before haha

Last time I felt like that was when I entered rpd for the first time in Resident Evil 2 remake

[maiden tulip]

I don't really find horror games scary but

I don't think you'll find SH:F scary

It doesn't really try to be scary

It's mostly just creepy

And unsettling

[cold anvil]

Ah I see

Still sounds good to me

[maiden tulip]

Like SH2 kinda "tried" and even if i'm not scared of horror games

I could tell they tried xD

This just seems like they're not even ttying rhey're just like

focusing on the creepy factor

If you get what i mean

[cold anvil]

Yeah

I get it

It feels like games are getting shorter, I’m really excited for this game but 14 hours for a premium priced game is crazy

Imo the minimum should be like 20 hours

[maiden tulip]

Tbh i dont mind

I'm tired of games that stretched themselves too much

15-25 hours is the perfect length for a game

[cold anvil]

I dont understand how people play 100 hours jrpg’s 😭

40 hours is good for me

I’d say I can probably do 60 hours if its as well paced as rdr2

My personal sweet spot is definitely 20-30 hours

For a narratively driven game ofc

Gives me about a week to play and digest it

[little cape]

https://tenor.com/view/dk-nintendo-donkey-kong-gif-23203423

[orchid prism]

All hail the great Clucker.

[sinful cobalt]

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

yeah this game is gonna be a pre-order

https://store.bandainamcoent.eu/code-vein-ii-physical-full-game-pc-collectors-edition/

180 euro

[outer pollen]

I got spooked until the combat part

[maiden tulip]

combat just...

kills any tension

tbh i find it more fun to try sneaking around the enemies

[outer pollen]

Honestly I’m not big on those types of games, but this is one of the few games where that would have been better

[iron oak]

I’m stuck on the || widow || boss in silksong

[maiden tulip]

@cold anvil honestly i'm just gonna tell you not to get it

If you actually like silent hills

This isn't it

The more i play it the more i dislike it

[cyan pewter]

@willow quiver

[willow quiver]

Bro

[sinful cobalt]

nice ai pics

[cyan pewter]

a lil more

[willow quiver]

I can't like it's hard to believe this is where we are with this stuff man

[cyan pewter]

forza in the right places are just juicy

[willow quiver]

I literally started my PC for Skyrim High preset with the GTX 970 and r9 5900xt, and only stuck to esport titles when my 6 hours of Skyrim playtime got boringggg

So seeing what we had and now is seriously like..

[willow quiver]

I had no idea this game was built like this holy shit jaja

[cyan pewter]

@willow quiver this where i say they have some stuff to improve on

i dont really like how the matte texture looks in some lighting

[willow quiver]

I get it but

It sets a fine line between game and reality while still recognizing the absolute gobsmacking beauty of everything art-wise

[sinful cobalt]

and the tree textures

[cyan pewter]

tbh trees are ok

[willow quiver]

I love it, and you taking the pictures like IRL shots is

Bro you're awesome seriously

[cyan pewter]

i present to you: trees

[willow quiver]

It's been a minute that I really looked at games for their visuals so that's just me but

I feel blessed

[willow quiver]

ok now this only really kicked me in the nuts when I zoomed on my 1080p screen

sharpening x40000

[cyan pewter]

gotta get creative or else it becomes repetitive

[willow quiver]

nvm I see what you mean WHAT IS THAT

Nah that's kinda funny but still you're making the most with what you have

[cyan pewter]

i love that theres people out there making custom maps/tracks for photos

[willow quiver]

Probably blurring a lot of the background (still making FIRE shots) to prevent that from showing through

I gotta write this wall of text you're just.. bleaching my eyes with beauty I gotta escape..

[cyan pewter]

in the pictures with the m3 and gtr, both were on custom maps made by the community

[willow quiver]

they honestly did a fantastic job

this community seems very cool

like I said I put myself through a grueling (since 2013) time of only eSport titles so

this is like unspoken territory to me

[cyan pewter]

ive always liked the more realistic-ish looking games
tho there are def a ton of people out there that hate on realism-mimicing games

[cyan pewter]

also, a closeup on the trees since thats a cropped picture from afar

[sinful cobalt]

tbh not every game needs that imo

like that hyper-realism

in a racing game i can agree that it needs that

[cyan pewter]

well it depends on the game but for me tbh the list of importance (in no order) is:
physics
audio
visuals/textures

of course different racing games have different physics

[sinful cobalt]

im a little bit weird as i dont really care about audio that much, but physics are top 1 priority

[cyan pewter]

yeah in games like carx, its kinda like fuckall visual+realistic physics wise but it has a nice drifting specific chassie

[sinful cobalt]

Physics
Textures/Visuals
Audio

[cyan pewter]

personally, i dont like how NFS and TC does their physics as its too much of an arcade style but i love how TC plays (story wise and the unique vehicles you can get)
i just dont think NFS is for me

[sinful cobalt]

i mean NFS is always was arcade type

[cyan pewter]

for sure

[sinful cobalt]

while Forza was a mix of Arcade and Realism

and like Assetto and others are Realism

[cyan pewter]

still waiting for AC evo to do smth

ahem release the open world map and then ill buy the game

[sinful cobalt]

i bought a wheel to play the game

played like a few times and sold the wheel

[cyan pewter]

i also have a wheel

but i dont like using it in forza

[sinful cobalt]

i dont enjoy playing racing games solo

[cyan pewter]

its too... arcade-y

forza is best on a controller

[sinful cobalt]

and again i dont like realistic racing games

[cyan pewter]

i like driving on some tracks and assetto does that the best

[willow quiver]

I do not, it's just one of those things where it's kind of... money gap

Like I love realistic gaming it's just never really been in my scope to pay what I would want FPS-wise yk

But I hella respect it

[cyan pewter]

oh yeah id always slap on max settings anyways if my pc couldnt handle it

[willow quiver]

From you guys making enough that it's not really an issue, I'm 24 and still working shit out haha

[cyan pewter]

tho mostly just f2p games

[cyan pewter]

im still a student

[sinful cobalt]

i have a job and my setup is only this lol

[cyan pewter]

tho i do pay for my own shit

even if i have to borrow from my parents sometimes its always paid back in full

[willow quiver]

Very respectable and better than borrowing from banks FOR SURE (unless you want to build credit I guess?)

[cyan pewter]

im just focusing on not taking any loans out for college

[willow quiver]

I literally have been floating my credit 1 point per 3 months from loans I owe to college since 2021, but it's literally only 2k so

[cyan pewter]

works great when tuition isnt too expensive

[willow quiver]

I was lucky to get 5000 from FASFA and 5000 from family when I wanted (at the time) to go to college. was very lucky in comparison to some and like I said only ended up having to take out maybe 2.5k? forgot the exact but my monthly is $50 so not that deep

finished 1 semester and quit because it's just not for me despite getting all my credits

[cyan pewter]

my tuitions only 7k/year and fafsa covers all of it, just tryna finish before trump pulls the plug on it

[willow quiver]

also 5,000 dorm costs for a literal 2 ft x 2 ft dorm. god going to a non-community for my first year just so I could move away was the dumbest mistake ever

[cyan pewter]

doorming is just

[willow quiver]

horrible

only excuse is the secluded apartments with good separation, which for some reason was the same price in my hometown but I chose to sleep in a box for a few months instead

insane

[cyan pewter]

for reference my college is in new york, i choose to commute which is like 45~90 minutes depending on the traffic one way

30 grand for a deluxe single for a year

doubles are the biggest rooms we got so you cant even split it more if you wanted to

you can probly group rent an apartment for cheaper with this pricing

[cold anvil]

Time to spend all my money on micro transactions

[maiden tulip]

It's not a bad game just

Not a silent hill game

• it has flaws

If you go in with sh expectations you'll be disapointed

[cold anvil]

Tbh I knew it wasn’t gonna be as good as silent hill 2 even before the game came out but I still wanna give it a solid chance :3

[maiden tulip]

The story is good and what keeps me playing xD

[grizzled quarry]

[cold anvil]

Holy shit what do you do in beamng???

Are you on BeamMP servers???

[grizzled quarry]

a lot of drifting

some drag racing stuff

[cyan pewter]

Hows drifting in it?

[grizzled quarry]

so much fun

[cyan pewter]

Heard its difficult

[grizzled quarry]

you can use oversteer assist to make it as easy/difficult as you want

its extremely versatile

and feels really good on controller with whatever oversteer you end up preferring

[cyan pewter]

Ah I see

[grizzled quarry]

is this gonna be the first dlc character?

[pure bear]

cash is actually just their Design goal but they kept it as a name

[outer pollen]

I believe so

@cold anvil play the game in Story mode if you do get Silent Hill f

The game punishes you too much for exploring with the weapon durability

Atmosphere is great though

Now I’m running around without a weapon

[mellow garden]

they're trolling cod skins in the beginning, and also used a parody song that was in one of cod trailers lol

[sinful cobalt]

tbh the marketing team doing a great job with this game

[outer pollen]

I sleep!

[fallow bronze]

Honestly, bf trailers have always been great

Helps that it has a great theme song

[proper basin]

Fish…

[compact oriole]

i finished the cyberpunk dlc and also did the new ending you can unlock with it.
needless to say game still looks amazing af, the story, the story telling and the way npcs move in conversations are insanely immersive

[vivid wharf]

at first I was a hater of cyberpunk but honestly I can now appreciate that the writing, the characters, the voice acting are done very well, and the story related scenes are usually really immersive

a lot of games are so lame in these aspects

after seeing comparisons with starfield I started respecting cyberpunk way more

[compact oriole]

ye, cp77 is why i was so mad at bethesda for starfield

the npcs, how they look and move the "cutscenes" and everything. its just as bad as it was with morrowind

theyve not grown even a little bit

how do you know that cp77 exists and as bethesda, multi billion dollar company, youre like: ye what we do is good enough

[vivid wharf]

and new TES is probably going to be the same😭

[compact oriole]

ye i know it will..

just the npcs. add so much to quality and immersion. and even in starfield theyre sticks

theyre painfully obvious not real and after experiencing how it can be, it just completely breaks my immersion

[vivid wharf]

https://youtu.be/K4ADco41g9s

[compact oriole]

exactly

[vivid wharf]

maybe starfield's is just a side quest, but the voice acting is so unbelievably bad
like how much did they pay these people😭

[compact oriole]

prolly straight off of fivrr

[verbal nymph]

one of the CP77 side quest lit having you crucified somebody, and iirc the VA there is still better than what Starfield shown on that video

[compact oriole]

that side quest was low key insane

[vivid wharf]

bloodborne npcs that sit behind windows and you never see them have more love put into them than most of starfield

[outer pollen]

Should I buy Cyberpunk on switch 2 @maiden tulip

[maiden tulip]

If you actually are gonna play it yes

[compact oriole]

if you wanna play it with 10 fps sure

[maiden tulip]

It runs well

Better than on steam deck + looks better

[compact oriole]

30fps 450p-810p

[outer pollen]

I own the base game and dlc on pc, but that experience is already tainted cause of the launch

[maiden tulip]

There's 2 modes

Also... it's a handheld

I played on the 40 fps performance mode and had a good experience

[compact oriole]

well ye.. thats why i said it wouldnt run well

[maiden tulip]

Better than when i played it on my steam deck

Only area where i saw drops was dogtown

[vivid wharf]

nah just play it on pc, it is way more immersive, I'd say it deserves the full PC experience, unless you really want to have it on a handheld

[compact oriole]

like if you actually play it handheld im sure itll be good. but docked i wouldnt wanna play it

[vivid wharf]

you could try with a controller for a diff feeling

[maiden tulip]

I didn't play it docked like at all

But for playing in bed on a small screen

Its a nice experience

[compact oriole]

ye

[outer pollen]

You know what helps when playing Switch 1 games? Using the chat feature to turn the screen smaller

[maiden tulip]

Huh

Why would i want my screen to be smaller

[outer pollen]

So it doesn’t look as stretched out

[compact oriole]

wdym

[maiden tulip]

I'm so confused

[compact oriole]

sw1 and 2 both are 16:9 so what does that even mean

[proper basin]

https://tenor.com/view/riku-holding-his-hand-out-in-the-ocean-kingdom-hearts-riku-ocean-wave-gif-26773695

[maiden tulip]

Literally scales fine

[outer pollen]

I don’t wanna switch games to show right now

[outer pollen]

Go play persona 5

[maiden tulip]

I'd have to redownload it

[compact oriole]

idk, does the res of the sw1 version look bad if stretched for bigger screan?

[outer pollen]

Some look a bit fuzzy

[maiden tulip]

I mean it's 720p on a 1080p screen so it won't look as sharp

Depends on how the sw1 game handles resolution scaling

[outer pollen]

Nintendo greed

https://www.resetera.com/threads/switch-2-wanna-play-switch-1-games-with-no-scaling-in-handheld-mode-like-ds-on-3ds-for-native-and-clean-720p-here-is-how-with-this-workaround.1223280/

[maiden tulip]

I'll take the bigger screen

Tbh

[outer pollen]

I won’t might as well rub Vaseline all over my screen

[compact oriole]

just pay money to get the sw 2 version (if it has it)

[maiden tulip]

Also most of the games i play got free updates

so justbplay games that have developers that give a crap xd

[outer pollen]

And to go against Dashi

[outer pollen]

99% chance of it being a game key card sadly

[maiden tulip]

Depends on the studio

[vivid wharf]

I imagine having a smaller screen inside of an already small handheld is really a tough experience😭
would be harder to focus

[compact oriole]

well then you do choose the pain willingly. just buy it digital

[outer pollen]

no

[maiden tulip]

Sega seems to love game keycards for some reason

[proper basin]

they need to update xenoblade 2 badly

[maiden tulip]

But cp2077 is on cart so is hades 2

[compact oriole]

well then pay on your small screen, while having paid for a bigger one

[outer pollen]

I hear it looks rough

[maiden tulip]

so is every nintendo game

[proper basin]

handheld it looks very bad

[outer pollen]

I only play handheld

[maiden tulip]

Cant look worse than on sw1

[outer pollen]

Bro if you play tabletop mode there needs to be a case study conducted on you

[maiden tulip]

I rememver playing that game at like 20 fps on sw1 @proper basin

[proper basin]

still a very bad resolution regardless, looks terrible on the bigger screen

[maiden tulip]

Does it stutter tho

I'm guessing not

[proper basin]

no obvs

[maiden tulip]

The stutters on sw1 were my main frustration

For xeno2

[outer pollen]

I’m playing the greatest game ever made Unicorn Overlord

[maiden tulip]

never heard of it

ok when are you guys joining moumou's cult

[hollow zephyr]

Ferraris are cool, Bugattis are even cooler!

[cyan pewter]

ill do it next time

[hollow zephyr]

YASSSS

koenigsegg jeskos are also very cool

[cyan pewter]

meanwhile have a pagani huayra r

[hollow zephyr]

Those are also very cool!

[sinful cobalt]

thats an older screenshot

[cyan pewter]

imo in the hypercar space, Pagani and Koenigsegg makes the best looking cars

[cyan pewter]

https://tenor.com/view/pikachu-gif-13575853101874488635

[hollow zephyr]

Deffo

I've seen a Jesko Attack at a car meet and it's super duper cool

[sinful cobalt]

ah nice, i was like wait a second u have a 98x3d

[cyan pewter]

craftsmanship for those 2 are absolutely insane

[hollow zephyr]

Top 5 coolest cars of all time

[cyan pewter]

saw a kei truck irl for the first time today while driving

[hollow zephyr]

They're tiny right?

[cyan pewter]

its so smol

[hollow zephyr]

Yeah, they are a lot smaller than you'd expect

[sinful cobalt]

oh true i might gonna get this

[cyan pewter]

https://tenor.com/view/side-eye-side-eye-meme-tiktok-the-pointer-brothers-gif-13730785519279791710

[cyan pewter]

oh yeah for sure

i was shocked

[hollow zephyr]

There was one time where we tried to turn the truck bed of my friends Kei truck into a pool, but not even halfway through filling it up the suspension started to get dangerously low

[cyan pewter]

its cool finally seeing imports in my area

there was a historics car meet today, though most were american muscle, there were a few porsches and an r34

https://tenor.com/view/cat-pee-iamrigbycat-gif-3514872961554184610

the r34 sounded so nice, no over-the-top turbo flutter, just a single wooosh blowoff

[sinful cobalt]

tbh most cats in fh 5 sounds nice

[hollow zephyr]

Nice

You know what's crazy though

In all the car groups that I'm in everyone is going crazy over the BYD U9 xtreme

Because it's the worlds fastest production car in the world, and it's an EV

When historically EVs are not very good at getting a high top speed

[cyan pewter]

yeah, it beat out bugatti in a top speed run no? or is it that other byd car

[hollow zephyr]

And the crazy part is that it has also has the fastest Nurburgring lap time of any EV

[cyan pewter]

also this
https://youtu.be/7JMO0NRYIl8

[hollow zephyr]

Which is extremely rare because top speed cars don't do well in conditions like that

[hollow zephyr]

By a wide margin yes

The Chiron SS tops out at 289mph, the U9 xtreme tops out at 308mph

[cyan pewter]

koenigsegg lurking....

[cyan pewter]

i mean with the amount of power that thing has... its not shocking itd take the record

[hollow zephyr]

Yeah 3000 HP is no joke

[cyan pewter]

didnt the SS top at 304mph or something

oh wait no, thats the 300+ ver

[hollow zephyr]

I think the jesko absolut has the same/similar top speed as the U9 xtreme

[cyan pewter]

koenigsegg when they take top speed record with the gemera:

[hollow zephyr]

ROFL

[outer pollen]

@maiden tulip yay or nay?

[sinful cobalt]

nay

[cyan pewter]

imagine a 4 seater family car taking a top speed world record 😭

[maiden tulip]

How much is it supposed to cost in the us

Also im pretty sure i saw it on sale

Elsewhere

[outer pollen]

No digital

[maiden tulip]

No like i got a physical copy for tht game

Cuz its big

I swear i saw it for cheaper

https://www.gamestop.com/video-games/nintendo-switch-2/products/cyberpunk-2077-ultimate-edition---nintendo-switch-2/20022260.html

[outer pollen]

Maybe 5$ for the regular edition

[maiden tulip]

Its cheaper at gamestop

You can get it used

[hollow zephyr]

That would be insane

[outer pollen]

I didn’t know Luigi’s mansion 2 got a remaster

[maiden tulip]

It did

There’s only one place for that player to go to try n catch neon runing around

[worn dome]

Wha

If backsite guy kills you he can wall and go link or just sprint link since your team isent with you

Same with hard right

[cyan pewter]

Neon pathed left side to c link but also could’ve ran back site to hit clove from behind, clove is forced to path towards there and she’s solo b

[cyan pewter]

No one would’ve been hard right

[cyan pewter]

Wrong, if they’re blind, it’s a guaranteed headshot against you

[worn dome]

thats so true lmao

literally every single game i play a flash agent

i flash
I jump peak
3 full blind
someone is running around and just headtaps me

[cyan pewter]

Dry swinging atleast gives some sort of surprise but flash swinging reveals your timing

[worn dome]

im not even joking if i went into my replays i could find a clip everytime i play yoru

[cyan pewter]

Therefore, dry swinging is better 💯

[worn dome]

If I get asc this week would u give me term

[scarlet marlin]

yeah I saw/figured as well

I can wait one more year

[cyan pewter]

Fuck no tf

[worn dome]

Worth a try

[worn dome]

Could’ve set up flash tp main there, that tp is doing literally nothing, that flash is terrible and easily dodged, a flash off the wall you were hugging would’ve better if you were worried abt her peaking you, or a flash off the box or off the roof would’ve been good, best one is still flash out the smoke and jump her with a shorty

Anyone know of a good VPN for gaming? Got some issues connecting to a US based server in a game, and we're trying to troubleshoot if there's a routing issue.

[hardy merlin]

I liek ProtonVPN

[compact oriole]

Proton and private Internet access are certainly the safest ones. But idk how good they are for gaming

I remember one that was specifically for gaming but I can't recall the name

[orchid prism]

I'll give it a try.

[compact oriole]

I'll ask friends about the one I can't recall atm

[orchid prism]

Hah. Their free tier wants me to pay to be able to select a country. 😄

[compact oriole]

[vapid lintel]

I've been a paying customer of ProtonVPN for about a decade now, very pleased with their services

Oh a couple years short of a decade

Either way, a long time

[tall tulip]

Proton vpn?

[compact oriole]

Exitlag is supposed to be good for gaming

[lucid brook]

i like mullvad

[compact oriole]

I couldn't tell you what makes it esp good for that tho

[trim rock]

Advertising

[orchid prism]

For now I just need to be able to VPN from the US for free on a trial basis.

If that solves it, I'll look into a longterm solution and forcing only that one game to use the VPN network.

[lucid brook]

i believe proton offers a free vpn and you could later upgrade to a paid plan if the speed is an issue

[orchid prism]

Not with being able to select a location, so that's useless.

Already uninstalled that. Also tried hide.me which just had... no bandwidth. Couldn't even do a basic web search 😄

There goes EA. Not sure how they can become any worse, but I'm here for it.

Only a mere 55bil USD.

[fallow bronze]

Sigh

[rough stump]

yep

[hardy merlin]

55bn?!

Oh, and to Saudi Arabia, welp, that solves the question of me buying BF6

[compact oriole]

Crazy they're worth that much..

[mellow garden]

Sports games print money

[compact oriole]

Ye.. the gaslit idiots into starting a new gacha annually

[mellow garden]

I need to catch up in Monster Hunter Wilds

[compact oriole]

I think it's good theyre going private tbh.

No idea who these corps are but as long as the games are good I couldn't care less

[hardy merlin]

Wait, they are going private?

[vivid wharf]

I mean the saudi investment fund is just 1 of 3 sides who are buying the company

[proper basin]

As part of the acquisition

[vivid wharf]

its not like saudi government bought EA lol

[compact oriole]

Ye, no more stocks

[hardy merlin]

Please kick out Andrew Wilson and they can start cooking for once
Maybe we'll see Sims 5 or old EA titles on GOG or solved issues with some of their IPs

[mellow garden]

lol, lmao even to the GOG suggestion

More like mandatory Denuvo in every game

Can't have people pirating games when private equity demands every sale possible

[compact oriole]

Aren't ea already using denuvo?

[hardy merlin]

They released some old games on GOG back in the day, I just want C&C collection on there

[compact oriole]

Isn't it ironic that the only way to own games is pirating them. if they're not on gog

[mellow garden]

Assuming there's people cracking them

There's still many uncracked Denuvo games

They won

[compact oriole]

Ye CZ the ones that did gave up

[hardy merlin]

I don't mind, that's how I've got most old EA and Blizzard's games
If they don't want my money then their loss

[compact oriole]

Empress and whoever else did it

[hardy merlin]

Empress already lost marbles long ago
And the rest of the people had a simple choice - jail and outrageous fees... or cushy job ar Irdeto helping them improve Denuvo

[mellow garden]

I'd take the job

Sorry poor bros

It's like those people that stop working on open source software the moment they get a cushy tech job at a big company.

I'd do that too.

[compact oriole]

Wdym about empress

[hardy merlin]

Own open-source projects at least are legal
And a lot of companies love to open-source their projects because there always will be that one nerd which will help them solve the issue they were struggling for a long time... and for free

[hardy merlin]

It all started with their $500 in BTC per game crack, some people delivered cash, Empress didn't deliver crack...
After that they got mad at people for some reason and started their own Telegram group, where as far as I know there's an absolute shithole

[compact oriole]

Idk if you worked to crack shit and now you work on making drm.. kinda no backbone

[compact oriole]

Lol what. I never knew about this

The deal is a huge bet that artificial intelligence can significantly cut EA's operating costs, allowing the equity consortium to manage a large debt load on a company that historically carried limited net debt.

AI is already widely used across Silicon Valley to accelerate many kinds of computer programming. In games development, it can be used to replace voice actors and create backdrops and other assets, as well as automating play testing to avoid bugs before release.

But some believe the technology may soon be able to go much further in creating more realistic and responsive characters, or adapting storylines to players' personal preferences. The investors are betting that AI-based cost cuts will significantly boost EA's profits in coming years, people involved in the transaction told the Financial Times.

[hardy merlin]

rip EA
Private equity will suck you dry

[vivid wharf]

"it can be used to replace voice actors" oh fuck off😭
why not use it to speed up various development and business processes
why are they using AI for creative things too☠️

future AAA games from EA costing $80: AI voiced characters, AI written story, AI written code

[iron oak]

yeah that company is toast bye bye

[compact oriole]

Corp wanting to use ai

What else is new

[mellow garden]

Soon™

[vapid lintel]

You're preordering a... checks notes... 15 year old game? What

[mellow garden]

It’s free shipping from Nintendo’s own store front if you pre-order

As someone without Amazon Prime, that’s saving £5 on shipping costs versus buying from any other retailer.

[compact oriole]

And it's prolly 1 to 1 identical with a res boost if lucky

[small comet]

im going to local shop to get it

[vapid lintel]

It's not even for the Switch 2?

I don't get it

[small comet]

it is

its switch 1 which means switch2 also runs it

prob just runs heaps better on the 2 than the 1

[vapid lintel]

Ooh it was a Wii game

[compact oriole]

Ye but at switch 1 res and fps?

[mellow garden]

Yes

[small comet]

yes

[compact oriole]

You boutta pay extra for sw1 upgrade?

[mellow garden]

It’s runs at 4K on Switch 2

[small comet]

there also is some new lore content included according to the release trailer

[vapid lintel]

Meh, y'all have fun, I've never gotten into Mario 🤷

[orchid prism]

Me either - at least not since the Gameboy. 😄

[hardy merlin]

It's Switch 1?
Time to pull out emulator

[small comet]

i dont play mario games either except paper mario and galaxy

I look forward to playing both of these games at 4K60 using my Switch 2

[orchid prism]

https://tenor.com/view/emeu-banana-animal-emu-gif-24020349

what do we think chat should i pull the trigger?

https://tenor.com/view/money-smell-sus-gif-23801020

[maiden tulip]

Only thing that could make me buy it would be like gameplay/qol changes or if the assets themselves are different

If the point is to play 4k docked then and NOTHING ELSE changed then yeah

I'm not paying 50$ for a mario galaxy 2 port

Rn i'm just waiting to see if it's a straight up upscsled port or if the assets and everything have actually been updated

There's no footage which triggers me

Also why would i rebuy galaxy 1 when i bought 3d all stars uh which includes a remaster of galaxy 1

Idk how many years ago anymore

Was before i had a steam deck

I just wanted to play mario sunshine on the go

[little cape]

@vivid wharf bruh i missed the hollow knight sale for $10 now its never going on sale

[vivid wharf]

autumn sale starts today tho, maybe it will go on sale (I think the game is worth full price tho hehe)

[compact oriole]

hk goes on 50% sale routinely

but honestly both games are a steal even at full price

[little cape]

the sale already started

its not on sale

i missed the chance to buy it at $10 cuz i fell asleep 😭

[compact oriole]

mh wilds 30% sale. still not worth it

[little cape]

i dont see the game going on sale for a while since hk 2 got some much attention

[compact oriole]

was on sale leading up to launch

[little cape]

i'll buy this game when its $5

[little cape]

[vivid wharf]

try looking for steam keys maybe, could be cheaper

[little cape]

i did no luck on the two sites i use

[compact oriole]

But its like

25usd vs 140usd lol

[outer pollen]

Cartridge though

[little cape]

PLUH

[vivid wharf]

how about feeling physical touch of another person.....

sorry

[outer pollen]

I don’t want someone holding me down game better

[sinful cobalt]

Not worth

[outer pollen]

I might end up caving honestly

I really like the cartridges

[sinful cobalt]

Buy the game digitally and buy it physically later

For a cheaper price

I guess time to buy the Code Vein II Collector’s Edition

[outer pollen]

I don’t think it’ll go cheaper sadly

Atleast that’s not how it goes for switch games especially since one needs to be imported

[sinful cobalt]

Well get scammed

[worn dome]

@cyan pewter i dropped goldor the fish

[cyan pewter]

i dropped all 3

zzzz

except for a select few

[small comet]

tanks fps what

what potato you running on

[cyan pewter]

or well it did on my old system, i just never used it again

[small comet]

ngl i wouldnt know whats what without furf

[cyan pewter]

also dyed armor

[small comet]

oh no my fps

[cyan pewter]

ignore sapphire being there idk why even tho its not in the gemstone slot

[small comet]

all i got

[cyan pewter]

i just use the witherblades textures

[small comet]

tbf i am a noob at the combat part of skyblock

so maybe i havent seen the horrors of fps dips

[cyan pewter]

im combat main

[small comet]

well i did combat on the side with kudraas staff but they added some requirement at some point

so now im suck

[cyan pewter]

its the only skill i got above 40 thats not enchanting

[small comet]

and i just take ages to kill anything on the crimson whatever whatever

[cyan pewter]

i never did crimson shit and i still dont know what im doing there

i mostly just run dungeons

[small comet]

i think farming and mining stuff is what my gf and i got the highest with close to 40 or 50

[cyan pewter]

i did do farming for a bit but i stopped after they added pests

[small comet]

i mostly log in, empty minions and log out

[cyan pewter]

sounds about right

minion profits crashed a while back so i just let them sit

using combat minions to level up pets

[small comet]

also was a pain to setup a 1.21.5 fabric client with nice mods since they changed the requirements for the garden island

[cyan pewter]

still using badlion on 1.8.9

[small comet]

i used a custom forge modded client on 1.8.9 as well

just dont trust those third party client things

[cyan pewter]

personally i find mining really mind numbing and id actually have to gather money to invest into a mining setup

[small comet]

well

i got tons of money because i got no idea what to invest in for combat anymore

and since dying sucks i just invest in farming and mining

also helps my gf is on the same profile

[sinful relic]

i played a bit of 1HD back in the day and i didnt like it

might give a try

[tall pagoda]

Hmmm, I loved it but it’s a rough first entry I will admit

2/3remake is a pretty good place to start

[buoyant osprey]

1 is a great first entry

[sinful relic]

hmm i kinda bounced from it

[tall pagoda]

Basically, 0-3 is the raccoon city incident, 4-6 + both revs is the “wacky wahoo BSAA” era , and 7-8 is m o u l d

[tall pagoda]

It’s great, I loved it, I can just see why it would push some away bc it takes some getting used to

OG RE4 is fun but holy shit that ashley part on m&k sucks assssss

[tall pagoda]

Same, I even got used to tank controls after a bit

[tall pagoda]

I used controller tbh

[buoyant osprey]

I love how they can frame each angle like a photo. Makes the game more interesting

[tall pagoda]

Re4 og is just tanky enough to justify controller imo

[scarlet marlin]

i cant play games that requuire me to shoot often with controller

[sinful relic]

i kinda got used to it after playing dmc1 and dmc3

[tall pagoda]

I only just switched to mkb for rev and holy shit the difference

But that has modern movement and a reticle

[buoyant osprey]

I'm very used to tank controls

[hardy merlin]

What the actual...

[scarlet marlin]

I will just keep on playing randomized runs in RE4 V2

[buoyant osprey]

In some ways I prefer it over joystick movement since I still often accidentally end up doing a sharp turn after the camera changes in RE1make

[sinful relic]

i cant imagine playing re on controller

how do you aim on a controller

isnt that pain

[buoyant osprey]

Aiming is thankfully not a problem in the classic ones

But I'd hate controller aim in the modern titles

[narrow junco]

my shit needs to go up faster

[scarlet marlin]

its all about what youre used to. controller/console gamers feel the same about keyboard

but yeah personally I cant do it either

[tall pagoda]

Oh absolutely , but the movement from analog stick is sorta worth it

[grizzled quarry]

its not hard once you learn it

[hardy merlin]

What the fuuuuu
At least 150€ profit on my skins

[grizzled quarry]

i wish i never sold my cs skins

considering getting drunk and wasting money on cases when brothers come visit🔥

[narrow junco]

sounds like money well spent

[grizzled quarry]

hey i have like a 1/1000 chance of making profit

maybe less....

[narrow junco]

i still have like 700 danger zone cases

[grizzled quarry]

idek what cases to buy when i do that

because its all so expensive now

[narrow junco]

i think theres like websites that show best expected value

for what cases to unbox

[grizzled quarry]

are all the good ones glove cases?

[hardy merlin]

I had 900* Phoenix cases, bought them for 0.03 each
Still mad that I sold them when they were like 0.1€ a pop

[grizzled quarry]

why cant cases still be 10 cents 😭

[narrow junco]

I had 1000 breakout cases

Sold them for like 50c a pop

[pulsar prism]

It be like that

Anyway guess they'll sit in my inventory for another 10 years

It has been paying for my steam games for a long time though so got that going for me

[narrow junco]

yeah i dont think i have spent real money on steam in like 4 years

That’s probably possible already

Train city

[orchid prism]

As far as I understand, if a trip can be done without a car - and the comfort level of said transport matches a car, they'll choose not to use a car.

But that means a very good coverage of the city, and having easy transfers. (and having them be cheap/free)

There’s 15 games I wanna get for the switch right now

You caused this @maiden tulip

[compact oriole]

My work place now is close enough to walk there but I'm still keeping my car cuz using trams and trains sucks

[outer pollen]

Sucks I have to get darksiders 4 on the switch since I own the other 4

[outer pollen]

@cyan pewter if fnatic gonna win?

[cyan pewter]

probably not, itd be cool tho

[outer pollen]

[cyan pewter]

definitely deserved with the comebacks theyve managed to pull out of their ass tho

[outer pollen]

I can rest

[hardy merlin]

yay
fomo cosmetic that you won't use at all after 2 weeks

[outer pollen]

Literally me right now

Wow!!! @proper basin super cool song

[proper basin]

The 4th one is fire

[outer pollen]

OwO

[alpine venture]

found this really fun game

take a look

its pretty niche but i like it 😉

[outer pollen]

To own cartridge

Fuck me I missed the limited run for Fear Effect

[compact oriole]

you gotta work on that weird cartridge addiction

why would you buy a game you already own and is much better played on pc again, when you can buy a "new" game that you possibly also already owned 15 years ago

[outer pollen]

Sometimes handheld just hits different

Witcher 3 was better on handheld

Atleast I could stomach the game more

[compact oriole]

personally i cannot relate but either way, wouldnt it be better to get the game you dont already have first

you can buy cp77 later on probably one of the countless sales

[outer pollen]

Yeah just something about owning a cartridge is very very appealing to me

Especially since the prints slowly start to disappear for certain games

[compact oriole]

i get the collecting part to a certain degree. i meant the AAA being better handheld part

well either way. nintendo barely puts shit on significant sale if ever. cdpr does all the time

[maiden tulip]

He won't buy digital tbo

I showed him a game he wanted on sale for 20$

Instead he paid full price for the physical

[compact oriole]

[outer pollen]

[compact oriole]

id say "if he has the disposable income". but someone whos gotta choose between 2 games doesnt sound like that

but ye physical games dont go on sale much

[outer pollen]

Didn’t wanna cross 600$ in games

[compact oriole]

already bought 8 games?

[outer pollen]

Nu some are on sale

[compact oriole]

kinda crazy to type that out for full price games

[outer pollen]

Like I’m debating shin megami tensei V vengeance since 40$

I own the original one but not the vengeance edition

I’ll sleep on it

[outer pollen]

Touhou Luna Nights 10$ on switch @maiden tulip

digital

[maiden tulip]

Whats a touhou

@outer pollen

[hardy merlin]

How do you not know what is Touhou

By far the most popular Japanese weeby thing, even more than Miku

[verbal nymph]

How did you not know that

[vapid lintel]

Never heard of it

[maiden tulip]

I just don't

[verbal nymph]

It's soo popular some rhythm game have a dedicated category just for Touhou's song remixes.

[verbal nymph]

Imagine arcade shooter but much much more bullet and great music

• anime waifu

[outer pollen]

This one is like symphony of the night

There switch update

@maiden tulip

[compact oriole]

who or what is touhou

[trim rock]

Some weebshit thing

[proper basin]

Top down anime Bullet hell game

[maiden tulip]

[fading spade]

Any reasons why one of my games is locked to 50FPS despite vsync not being enabled???? its never had this issue before getting this GPU

[compact oriole]

what game

[fading spade]

Distance, its unity based...but the other Unity game I tried wasnt locked

[mellow garden]

Bellular

Fuck sake, even in non-WoW channels.

[maiden tulip]

Idk who bellular is but the video is a pretty good summary of the problem that plagues steam

Just thought i'd share it because i've posted articles about this shit hefore and no one cares so hey i guess a video works better to get people's attention?

reading hard for people smh

[compact oriole]

ok i watched it but what now

its an unfathomly tiny problem, nothing i can do about it apart from not buying tiny shitgames

[mellow garden]

I just can't take him seriously, that is all.

Due to his WoW coverage.

[maiden tulip]

4 times in a year is pretty damn bad if you ask me but yeah

[vapid lintel]

0.03% isn't very much

But it's a clear and obvious attack vector that should be removed by Steam

One way or another

[maiden tulip]

I'm just wondering how many more similar scenarios it will take

[compact oriole]

ye but how, without going full console and having to review every lil fucking patch

[maiden tulip]

Pretty sure valve has the money to hire people

[vapid lintel]

It won't take any number of similar scenarios, it will take a scenario where the relevant difference is a card service provider having an opinion on what happened/to do

[compact oriole]

ofc they do but thats not the point. it sucks for all other games/devs

and lol as the biggest platform that allows basically about anything as long as its legal, theyd have to hire an anfathomable amount of people

[maiden tulip]

Or a lawsuit

[maiden tulip]

Still pocket change for valve

[maiden tulip]

They can just put their game on itch.io or whatever

If they think a bit of verification impacts them that much

[pulsar prism]

Apple goes through pretty much all content that goes onto the app store so it can be done

[compact oriole]

ye and it fucking sucks

the only reason i dont have an iphone is that they do that

[maiden tulip]

Ah yes we should have it be like google play whre i search for an app and i get 4 chinese copies full of malware as top result next to the one i actually want to use

[compact oriole]

choose the one you wanted to use

[maiden tulip]

I know i'll pick the right one but i don't expect lets say my uncle on his android phone to install the right one

[compact oriole]

also googles store about to do the same shit as well

[maiden tulip]

Which funilly enough he got his facebook hacked that way lol

[pulsar prism]

May not have a choice if regulators step in

[maiden tulip]

Also steam just

Autodownloads updates

By default

And the fact that someone can have a game on their system for months

Dev pushes out an update update gets autodownloaded

Player who assumed for months that it was fine gets buttfucked

How is that not problematic?

[compact oriole]

ye but it doesnt get auto ran

it is problematic. id just rather they find a way that isnt scanning and greenlighting every fucking 5 kb patch

[trim rock]

Maybe just have automatic scans or something

[maiden tulip]

and how many pc players have had a game in their life be mislabeled as a virus

[trim rock]

Maybe they already have!

[maiden tulip]

Andjust whitelist it whenever the prompt will pop up

From windows defender or whatever

Without thinking twice about it

I bet all of you have at least done this at least once in your life

[compact oriole]

what? downloaded a virus?

[maiden tulip]

No

Added an exception to a game because windows defender was fucking with it

Without really thinking twice about it

[compact oriole]

i may have

but it was safe, cz those might have been pirated

[trim rock]

Well allowing a game through firewall is rather common and necessary if you want to host

[compact oriole]

im curious if valve wil do anything without having its hand forced

you know what id actually care about? them making a new payment system so they can tell credit cards to go fuck themselves and put em in their place

[trim rock]

Yeah I'm telling you SteamPay would be a great idea

[maiden tulip]

Hell silent hill 2 remake a few months ago after installing it from steam it wouldn't run windows defender was blocking it (not talking about windows firewall)

[compact oriole]

oh im not sure if ive ever given a defender exception to a game

firewall i mightve for hosting as well

[trim rock]

Oh that level of exception not sure I've ever done

[maiden tulip]

I'm pretty sure everyone has done it once at some point xD

[trim rock]

But I also barely use Windows for gaming these days

One thing I fucking hate is games that always run as admin, Valve should just ban that

[compact oriole]

speaking of safe enviroments. anyone else added their downloads folder to defender exceptions?

[maiden tulip]

no
