    yeah, giving it a shot. I had to do it twice for some reason. [/Script/Engine.RendererSettings] <-- this vanished the first time. like, pasted it all in, under the other settings. loaded up. no visual change. closed the game. opened up the .ini again, and that line was gone. had to...

    The Jrpg thing is weird. First, the two biggest names. got lost. Dragonquest. 10 was an mmo. 9 was on the DS. 11 sucked. and that was back in 2017 8 was the last proper dragonquest, back in 2004. A million spinoffs. some were ok/good. Dragonquest builders 1/2 are pretty great. but again...

    A few tips. not sure which or if any of these are new to the remaster, or were in the original. Merchant gold doesn't seem to be doing much of anything in the remaster. only seems relevent if you try selling too much in one instance. meaning, if you try selling 100 potions for 1000 gold, and...

    Its over. I had been asking "where's Rory?" since poe2 release. it was odd he was not doing any interviews, talks, or anything. if you go back and watch any of the old game system discussions, it was Rory. I am pretty sure he was the main driving force behind Poe1's best systems. Poe2 is a...

    I found a way that doesn't seem to match what you're describing. use W to push up. don't use the mouse to move it up. HOLD W. so that it pushes the tumbler up constantly. this makes it so the tumbler never drops more then a milimeter. this then also makes the window for when its good to be...

    its interesting how much these games are sold almost entirely on the game world. so many of the other systems are pretty bad. and "Fix them with mods". atm, my thoughts on Oblivion are solidly, Skyrim is better. much of that is the small qol buffs. marking when something is cleared. I...

    PS had the best review of Starfield I found. Everyone criticized it, but few really correctly understood what went wrong. His review was the most accurate that I heard.

    yes. East/west in this regard is not post ww2 east/western blocs. Its a European, versus East Asia one. base cultures. Russia's cultural roots are European. not Chinese/mongolian, Korean/Japanese, etc.

    Oblivions leveling scaling is not just one thing. Leveling scaling alone. pros/cons. some say they prefer it not at all. Skyrim, of course "fixed" it by gating scaling. wolves 1-10. bandits 1-20, etc. but dragonpriests/generals keep up with you. if it was JUST level scaling, it would be...

    I installed morrowind cuase I was waiting on the vid card, and just spent like 2 hours playing. it is surprisingly playable as is. Just some minor control issues. I think oblivion actually looked worse. lighting,etc was in a bad period..

    There's actually a bunch of things. the body type A/B. They also changed male/female stats to "origins". so, instead of men getting +str/end, now, "east coast" gets it. I see people saying, this is also bugged. as the game still treats it as male/female. like, origin a was male, origin be...

    This sounds like such a terrible idea to me. there is a demo. maybe Ill take a look to see what possibly could be interesting about this. The only part of it that I think does seem interesting is the idea of A.i. allies. like, say playing skyrim. the idea of random friendly adventures...

    Im not sure any mass effect would make my top 10 really, as much as like 1 and some of 2. Although I think me1 might edge above dragonage origins. Wrath of the righteous would be #1 or 2 for me. Wizardry 8 needs to be in there. Ultima 7 and underworld. ultima 4 Neverwinter nights is on there...

    yeah, I was in the middle of typing a followup. everytings either overpriced or out of stock. sucks. I think 4070ti or 5070ish is where I'd aim atm. similar to the 7900xtx, but should be cheaper.. I definitely cant afford 1k. ideally aim closer to 700. any word on the 5070's? brand new...

    I actually started it up last fall. didnt make it very far. I think I over thought myself with the leveling system. I read up too much on how shit it was, and altered my char creation, and early gameplay around it.. and that killed any fun I was having.

    I wonder if there is more too it. as many have questioned, given the leaks, why not just move forward and drop it? why the TEASING now, for "worst kept secret"? you'd think the teasing would make a joke about it being leaked. "all" implies more then 1 thing. So, I wonder if there is some...
