    What are you playing?

    So was bull shitting with my buddy and was thinking how awesome it'd be if there was a Farcry style game, but set in the Dragon Age world. I suppose this is basically Dragon Age? I don't know? The quick combat style of Farcry is appealing, and open-world map, but action-based combat where you...

    Far Cry 6

    Ubisoft Connect software is buggy as hell and I've just been lucky. Buddy of mine could get as far as loading into game but then would crash every single time within seconds. He's pissed because it just randomly started up one day.

    yea, I'm saying buy the mouse, take it home, use it for up to 14 days, and return it if you don't like it. Not talking about product they have out on Display in the store.

    Keyboards & Mice

    Any big retailer can be used this way, but of course, they don't have every model. I went through a dozen different headsets from Best Buy when trying to find a wireless one that would work. Some of them didn't get out of the parking lot before I walked right back in to return them for store credit.

    The Division 2

    Yea, I don't think it's AMD at all, evident immediately by all the people in here with the same issues on nVidia systems. But annoying none the less.

    The Division 2

    The campaigns have always been rock solid and worth it to complete I think. Worth it to check out if they've released new campaign missions.

    Right, figured that out as well as the mission played out and I realized I could have done that mission at anytime no matter what.

    Metro: Exodus

    Looking at completing the entire series starting with Metro 2033 Redux, and dang. Have a brand new rig with 6900XT and it still only gets about 60 FPS on Ultra High settings. Even for an old game it still looks pretty good though.

    I only did it after I had beaten the other 3 areas... And you guys were all right. What in the actual fuck was that. :(

    I like B + C. I'm mainly into the longer games, and so I suggest quarterly results maybe? Ain't no way I have the time to beat RDR2 in like just 1 month I don't think. My Farcry 6 playthrough is nearly complete for the story, so I'll be coming out the gate hard on the points!! :D

    I started Control, Yakuza: Like a Dragon, Heart of Stone W3 DLC, and Farcry 6 lately. Didn't get to finish any of them. :( Trying to finish Farcry 6 tonight, but I don't think that it's going to happen.

    Far Cry 6

    I know there's the quick ending at the beginning where you can just take a boat to Miami and be done with the entire thing, but what happens if you just go straight for the kill Castillo mission? It's been on my map since the very beginning? He's dead, and you still have to go through all the...

    That's the same set of memory that I just picked up. I've got it listed up on FB Marketplace and so far no one has hit, but understandable because I live in a tech wasteland outside any big city. Everyone around me is more interested in guns and fishing poles than computer parts. :)

    Far Cry 6

    Well, the scenery is pretty damn gorgeous in FC6, and they did away with the forced story cutscenes when your Rep got to a certain point so that's a plus! I'm looking forward to getting to the end of FC6 and coming back here saying, "You were all right, fuck this game!"

    Far Cry 6

    So buddy and I have a system where we coop knock out all the “red” on the map, and skip coop’ing story. We switch “hosts” so we do it for my game and his game. Then we solo just do the main story missions on our own playtime until a bunch of red fills the map again and we will focus on just that...

    It’s free on Gamepass. Might be worth playing after the buddy and I knock out Farcry 6.

    Picked up RDR2 and Cyberpunk on EGS because they have the same discounts as everywhere else but are handing out those $10 off coupons.

    Far Cry 6

    It helps I've had a friend to play with for quite a bit of it, but I'm also only 12 hours in. For now it's still fun and entertaining, and right on track with FC5 where I beat the main story about the 30 hour mark.

    Far Cry 6

    Yea, I think spronk's review is a little harsh. It's a Farcry game through and through. I think it does some good things over 5, and this all could be that I'm not that far into the game yet so I'm not bored or sick of doing the same things over and over again. Right in the first area out of...

    You've been cranking pretty hard. Maybe take a break? Like right now I'm on an MMO break hence why I'm trying to knock out some of these games. I added a few more to the list today that I'd like to at least play through the story. Added Assassin's Creed Odyssey + Valhalla, and Watchdogs.

    I mean I get it. Despite not liking a game I'll keep going on it because I'm stubborn. Then due to whatever it is I don't like about it I'll burn out pretty quick and then be mad that I never finished it.

    RDR2 Cyberpunk 2077 Witcher 3 DLCs (Heart of Stone/Blood & Wine) Yakuza: Like a Dragon Farcry 6 Control Horizon: Zero Dawn Metro Exodus EE These are games installed and started, but never finished. I need to get on this. Trying really hard to set aside mental blocks and just get it done.

    Witcher 3

    New Season dropped on Netflix and it has me playing this again. I've never done Heart of Stone or Blood & Wine, so it's been a year, so I'm ready to go!! Playing with a new rig with everything maxed out doesn't hurt anything either.

    Commitment issues or something because I can’t even fathom starting so many games so quickly. Even if I did beat the previous ones. I have a huge mental block on playing games to where even after I’ve started one it takes a lot of willpower to come back and play it again. Only applies to single...

    Yea, side-by-side comparisons and benchmarks will put nVidia cards ahead. But in the end, I'm not running 2 side by side computers with AMD vs nVidia, I'm just running the one and when I throw this 6900XT into my machine with 5950x it's gonna pump out FPS that I've never seen before.

    Yakuza series

    Just started up Yakuza: Like a Dragon and about 10 hours into the game. Pretty interesting, but the difficulty seems way weird. All the fights if you control them are way too easy to the point that it's getting boring, but they actually end up having some party members KO if you do Auto? Am I...

    And I was convinced by some rando's in the StockDrops Discord to get the 6900XT from ASRock. It's apparently a beast? Lol. I couldn't hold out any longer. https://www.newegg.com/asrock-radeon-rx-6900-xt-rx6900xt-ocf-16g/p/N82E16814930057?Item=N82E16814930057

    Nice. I thought about pairing my 5950x with a 6800XT, as they are just so much easier to get, sort of. Would be neat.
