    Operencia:The stolen sun

    Yeah all these games are ok-ish, I played them all(well not vaporum lockdown didn't know they released a second one). Some are slightly better than others but not great regardless. Operencia had interesting characters but the game itself wasn't great. Vaporum was a bit below. There's the Fall of...

    Monster Hunter: World

    If you're on PC, there's mods to see health. That said you kinda get a feel for it over time, and once you have enough knowledge about the monster ingame(from fighting them and stuff, you can check the ingame journal thing), you'll see when a monster is close to death with a skull icon on the...

    Torchlight III

    Checking a stream for a few minutes, it definitely doesn't look like it's out of early access with the bugs and shit. Don't know if the game itself is good but doesn't look any better than the EA and people said that was trash so probably is still trash. Might be good in a while after a bunch of...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Reading a bit on the new Eureka-like thing, it seems like a good way to level alts, better than HoH was. Also they added a reward earring that gives 30% xp up to 80(similar to preorder earrings but already up to 80 and this time no preordering needed which is an interesting choice since the...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    That's the one I was interested in back when I wanted to switch, but after reading up on the Razer drivers bullshit I just sticked to Logitech, current mouse(G502) has additional buttons anyway, has the usual 3 buttons on top and 2 buttons on the side, but a 3rd on the side, then 2 more left of...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    I mean before that we didn't really have GPUs anyway? At least it was during that period that they started making video cards and shit. And yeah the jump was pretty big, early 3D stuff looked crazy compared to what was done before. Although I wasn't much into Quake myself, but Unreal(the...

    Final Fantasy 16

    Highly regarded doesn't mean a new one would sell well. Now it's possible they could start the revival of a fairly dead genre but the few games that still release in this genre aren't probably hitting crazy enough sales for them to bother. I'd say the best case scenario was Valkyria Chronicles...

    Playstation 5

    The bigger cooling design might be to reduce sound rather than reduce temperature. The PS4 was a fucking noisy piece of shit and I believe I read someone say the PS5 was actually kinda silent. As I said, temperatures of that order don't actually matter, could be 75+ and it still wouldn't matter...

    Monster Hunter: World

    Isn't it just random what you get? The other differences could be the directional input during it(seems to be neutral in these videos) and potentially the first note(special note first for dragon element burst thing, playing the triangle triangle note first change the moveset so maybe that...

    Playstation 5

    Doesn't really matter either way since 65°C is like a good 15-20° away from the "maximum" you'd want, at least in terms of PC values, so shit doesn't really matter.

    Monster Hunter: World

    You're gonna have to be more precise. Do you mean the spin? That's the Iceborne move, it's any move > clutch claw button(L2 iirc). He cancels into the back hilt attack(back+circle iirc) and then you can chain it. It lets you build the dragon notes. That's really the basic of HH in Iceborne...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    If it's like the old system, it's only on the final item. They had something like that in the past but kinda dropped it over time, the elemental affinity crafts on the old primal weapons and stuff, basically progress was shit unless you use the right elemental progress skill(so you had to cross...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Just like mmos did 20years ago. That's actually the whole point, it isn't a "gotcha", that's what it's supposed to be. You're buying a game that's not yet released(preorder) and getting a beta build to play early on that you can report bugs and suggest feature while the game is getting finished...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Hmm I'm guessing blue mage content will be 5.45 so a month+ after launch, like last time. Looking forward to that, and the end of eden. And I guess the monk rework since it's one of my "main" classes so we'll see how it goes. Interesting they're only planning a single "fanfest" event instead of...

    The white thingies come out pretty easily though so I assume it won't be hard to take them out, paint them black and put them back on.

    He says what the dimensions are at the start of the video, 39cm x 26cm(which you have to convert to whatever units your country uses if you live in a 3rd world country). That's definitely massive but the guy is also short as hell.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Win 10 switch was definitely good, but after all the horror stories I made sure to grab the pro version. Don't know how much it helps but honestly it doesn't do all the stupid stuff I heard win10 was bad for, for the most part. I had to turn off cortana bullshit somewhere(googled it) and updates...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    They've already done the whole thing twice, they'll fix stuff and improve a lot of things, but yeah as mentionned the future acts probably won't be nearly as polished.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Well yeah if you're looking for a linear story with little side content this isn't going to be the game for you, did you really need to ask though should have been pretty obvious a while ago, it's going to be a main story with a lot of optional side content. If you don't like the optional...

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    Well I don't see how it would be an issue for this type of game, might have to turn off some of the most retarded stuff like super detailed shadows but it should run just fine. D:OS2 ran fine on my older PC too, it's not really a type of game that's too demanding I think and the optimize...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    This is somewhat surprising, I guess they managed to convince higher ups that it's so bad if they release like that it'll actually be detrimental enough that it's better to delay it. Good on them I guess, although I still think it'll be somewhat rushed(definitely before xmas).

    So it was just a driver issue then, which is pretty common for new launches like this. Interesting that the Linux driver somehow didn't have issues though, you'd think they'd fuck up that one especially.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    Heirlooms are somewhat nice to have gear in all of these slots always up to date since quests aren't the greatest if you don't do sidequests or do older shit(cata items are fucking trash in the standard leveling iirc), but yeah they're not worth investing any money to upgrade them unless you're...

    Diablo 4 / IV / IIII / Fore / Cope / Seethe

    While it looks pretty it also looks really hard to read(the branches aren't clear enough) and the tree aspect seems kinda random since the skills don't look like different versions but just different spells altogether, just put in a tree fashion. Could just be because it's still placeholders but...

    Demon’s Souls Remake (PS5)

    Eh, looks like a pretty nice remake(like not just shitty upscaling and higher res textures) of a fairly old game(so I barely remember anything about it making it a somewhat "new" experience) so I wouldn't mind paying full price on PC, but not getting a PS5 anytime soon so I'll grab it on...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    It's faster than current 1-120, with xp boosts(current temp one and heirloom). At least on beta it was that much faster for me, and I did the BFA leveling without flying. It's just a shit ton faster and it does feel better since you get new things almost every levels, although sometimes the...

    Genshin Impact

    There's a post on reddit saying it does turn off but could just be china shills. Anyway this looked somewhat fun but it looked way too loaded with F2P/gatcha bullshit for me to enjoy.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I don't think they've said yet but haven't been following news too much. It's likely they'll have a conversion option like they did before, and the PS5 version will run higher graphics but it'll still be the same thing(basically like when you play on PC). Having a SSD for loading will make a big...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    That's just kinda the direction they went with during legion(maybe before too but legion especially with legendaries), and the whole "borrowed power" stuff, where basically a lot of classes barely function on their own and only become good once you have whatever is this expansion's flavor of...

    Oh yeah it's definitely a potential issue I think I mentionned it when I made the list of possible reasons not to go digital. Granted in most cases, you'd be the one initiating the chargeback so you know what you're getting into, but in some cases the bank might do some bullshit and you get...

    I mean Sony said it's up to the developpers to choose if they want free upgrades and a bunch of games are already announced with free upgrades. It's just Sony also decided to not apply this shit to their OWN game. Bunch of retards. Granted if/when I get a PS5, since I didn't buy Spiderman on PS4...

    NVidia GeForce RTX 30x0 cards

    With that FPS it doesn't actually do 8k gaming though. Granted you might be able to tweak settings and remove a bunch of stuff to make it run better, but then what's the point? There's just no reason to try to play at 8k right now, even next GPU gen might not be enough to do it decently. They...

    There are some lab enchants that don't display but are there a GGG dev said on reddit, so it's possible it's the same thing for these, probably worth keeping until they launch the league next week.

    Final Fantasy 16

    It's not really a theme in XIV, it's somewhat of an exception on how the primals work. They are basically summoned out of strong feelings, generally by several people but in some rare cases by a single person and they are given form based on collective subconscious. Shiva isn't tied to a single...

    If you ever want to buy a limited edition or whatever then you'd be fucked, if you like selling your games, if Sony decides to ban your account and such, the usual. It's not really a big deal in most cases just something to remember. Biggest point I think would be buying games during physical...

    Path of Exile

    The patch is possibly not necessary though so I'm just gonna keep going like that see how it goes and if there's weird shit I can download it after, doesn't really make a difference. Granted I'm at 19k anyway so doesn't really matter what I do. Hell I don't even know if I'll play more than a...

    Path of Exile

    You could macro the second cast but it sounds like a good way to die randomly because your stopped to cast twice in a row when you should have moved inbetween, like spell echo but without the faster cast speed. Ultimately it's probably better to just cast twice. In a lot of cases you're not even...
