    Arc Raiders

    My 3-man all found aphelion blueprints in the same stella run one night. They absolutely have some kind of RNG problem, or maybe it's on purpose to seed certain maps with certain blueprints, who knows.

    Pluribus

    I can't actually decide if they wrote this as a like, self-insertion fantasy for shitty liberal wine aunts that never got married, or if it's a deliberate pisstake on how insufferable those people are. That's probably a good thing though? Because if it were too obviously either of those things...

    I think my one lingering complaint is blueprints and the nature of static loot spawns still. This was an issue in Tarkov as well, and persists here sadly. They made a pretty good stab at fixing it with randomizing the secure lockers, but they need to do more. The current meta of spawn naked + 5...

    Path of Exile 2

    Campaign resets to farm a particular mechanic has been a core strategy of PoE since the very beginning. Just because this particular instance of it was too powerful doesn't mean it's suddenly a bannable exploit. You can still use the exact same tech to farm infinite abysses or whatever in the...

    This may have been the most honest and believable female protagonist I've ever seen in a piece of media Legitimately difficult to watch at times, so kudos to them for that I suppose

    NVidia GeForce RTX 50x0 cards - 70% performance increase, but AI > you

    While this is bullshit rumor mongering, a price hike is definitely coming. The current shortage in the DDR5 space is not something that will be solved any time soon. We're in for a solid 2-3 years minimum of absolute unavailability of parts. I'm not even sure we're going to see any kind of...

    YouTube's War on Ad Blockers

    Don't get hung up on buying specifically a Pi. That entire space of cheap microcomputers has been entirely overrun with a flood of untraceable garbage from china and elsewhere. All you actually need is this: Pi-hole – Network-wide Ad Blocking It can run on any hardware/OS basically. So take...

    Arc Raiders

    I've been saying since the early tests the biggest problem this game has is being able to join raids late along with spawning more people in to raids after the initial loadout. Any map I get that is ~25 minutes or less remaining I just exit immediately - it's entirely pointless to even play...

    Path of Exile 2

    I wouldn't even call that particularly unusual for PoE. Resetting campaign zones to farm a particular league mechanic has been a staple of the game since basically forever. Temples are rewarding enough though that being able to set up a near-perfect chain of good rooms is pretty strong though...

    Which is hilarious that it even exists like that. I expect it will change and having an ass pocket requires a rig of some kind. This was a problem for years in Tarkov as well

    Path of Exile 2

    Last time they 'fixed' melee in PoE1 was Legion and all they did was add uneven 1-2 attack animation to most skills and cut their base attack speed by 25-30%. Those changes persist to this day, and all the current meta strike skills are ones that somehow escaped this 'fix' because it fucking...

    I mean as far as PoE2 goes it's easily in the top5 in terms of clear speed and still deletes bosses in 3 seconds.

    All of PoE2 is bladefall/bladeblast

    Home Improvement

    Yea that's exactly what I've been running in to. Pieces that are 3500$ are made from manufactured wood with 'real wood' paneling and shit. It's all just jumped up Ikea trash and there's no shot I'm paying those prices for any of it.
