    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    The amount of bloom, or explody light is less on PS5 Pro, but even there it is a lot more than I prefer. The game says its Pro Enhanced, but there is no way to really see, imo. The Quality mode is 30fps, and Perf is 60 but with so much light/bloom it kinda washes colors out even on an OLED.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    The QTE part is mainly for your own Skills to do more dmg, and you can enable Auto QTE for those. The defense stuff isn't a QTE, just reaction / timing as in any action game. So if dodging and parry are not your thing, you might have issues here.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    About an hour or so into the game now, past the Prologue and into the real shit. The lighting engine is pure ASS though. No amount of messing with settings has resolved this type of shitty lighting: The amount of Bloom is stupid, it just explodes everything. I've adjusted every setting remotely...

    Marathon (Bungie)

    I'll have to agree with @Lenas here after watching several streams. The game is clearly in is Alpha state. Whether they have the capacity to alter the game much between now and its release, I dunno. It definitely needs more time in the oven, but I think the games eventual failure at not being a...

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    I bought a new system about 3 weeks ago; 5070ti. Game seems to run great (High+ settings on 30 series and up). I usually consider getting a game on the ps5 first since I have a nice OLED tv for it, or I did when I only had a 3060. haha.

    Clair Obscur: Expedition 33

    Been looking forward to this, but I'm not trusting the main libs reviews. Was going to get it on the PS5 Pro, but caved and got it on PC to how noisy I can my new rig to get, lol. I see ACG changed thumbnail for his review from "So Many Fu**ing QTE's" to "Review". I take it he didn't like the...

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    Wait... do some of you think the character models in this remaster look good? Really? These are on par (at best) with stuff in a game like EQ2. The reveal trailer made it sound like they redid the meshes for all the npcs, is that wrong?

    Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion Remastered

    I think I played Oblivion for maybe 20 minutes then noped out. Watched the reveal trailer and was shocked at how bad the character models were, like why even bother? Most everything else -looks- OK, but why not do the world a favor and outsource character design / reworks to China or Korea, get...

    The First Descendant

    Yea, that is one of them. Its hilarious because if a female uses it, its blue with a smiley face, but if a male uses it, it turns red with an unhappy face. The other emote lets 3 characters line up behind each other while bobbing up/down/around out of sync. If its just one character, that...

    The First Descendant

    Nah, its not that bad now. Running one 400% dungeon (solo or grouped) will nearly max out a weapon, so just find a 400% that has a Component set you might use and/or Amourphous Materials for something you want. It'll go really fast. Make sure to run the two Sigma zones at least once per day to...

    I wonder if that will release before Witchfire, either way, I think both will increase interest in the other.

    Lawd... I hate all these builds that have you respec into the build you want. I just want a start to finish build, don't care about min/max, lol. Anyway, going to find a Paladin/Warpath type that uses Smite and Judgement. Last time I played I used a build like that and it was fun while I wanted...

    Marathon (Bungie)

    That still goes on, tbh. There was some post, maybe here a few pages ago, or on Reddit showing a MtF trans and some obese pink hair as part of the dev team. The tranny was very happy to be celebrating being a "woman" working at Bungie. ;p

    You dare to assume their gender? Disgraceful! Bigot! For real though, those are probably the people that have to make the game into what the blue hairs want them too.

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

    AMD. @McQueen I heard the same, but are you using the 566.36 driver with a 50 series? Given the release date of that driver, it probably doesn't have support for some of the 50-series features?

    Marathon (Bungie)

    Shroud mentioned that Marathon lacks what made/is making, Tarkov as compelling as it is, in that Marathon seems to be taking a route where it tells you what you need to know vs. in Tarkov you gotta learn stuff, like the value of items. So taking some of the mystery out of the game. Makes sense...

    My new system has hard locked twice in the past few days, including today, had to shut the system off / on the first time. Both times it has happened while watching a video on YouTube using Brave browser, and with my old system, the Brave browser would at time lock a tab that had Twitch running...

    I would be shocked if they showed the scene of Taim making those Aes Sedai kneel before Rand at Dumai's Well, if the show makes it that far.

    The game will be a smash hit for a month, maybe two. Don't underestimate the amount of shit Destiny players accept. After that though, it will probably fade.

    Looks like it will die off quickly. No real interest in an extraction shooter, if it were like The Division where the pvp aspect optional (but rewarding, I might have played it).

    Metal Eden

    After playing the demo, I think it is much more like 2016 than Eternal. I'd say its like Doom+Ghost Runner. Melee kills will give a bit of health back, while the Core grenade you can rip out of mobs will drop ammo when used to kill stuff. The Core can also consumed to get a mega punch that will...

    First Person action shooter like Doom, but a more pure sci-fi setting, release date is 5/6. Reveal trailer: Demo trailer: Demo out on all platforms.

    This image was posted in the The First Descendent subreddit and I thought it was an interesting take on the character, of course the anti-AI types bitched about it: So I wanted to do the same thing, but using a different "style", like using Boris Vallejo or Frank Franzetta as a stylistic...

    I have -too- many other games I'm invested in to deeply invest time into TFD, though I certainly would otherwise. I'll grab Luna and Ult Valby and see if they add anything new after that.

    Summer 2024 Anime Thread

    So far S2 of the anime is 1:1 with the webtoon, and has a different artstyle than S1. Sadly, it took awhile in the manga for S2 to get going, but when it did, it was really good. So I expect a lot of anime only watchers to find S2 to be boring.

    Seems like that has to be a bug, lol.... but the icon shows a gun, so maybe not. Either way, I'd wait for Ult Valby.

    Battle Pass is pretty easy to finish up, but the continuing reward is ass. You get some bonus coins that can only be used on one time purchases of shitty mats that you'll be crafting 24/7 anyway. Hope they improve upon that.
