    Microsoft buys Fallout creator Bethesda for $7.5bn

    Someone did not catch up on the console thread before posting.

    At this point, MS could probably buy Ubisoft too and call it a day.

    Doesn't mean shit, Nvidia bought ARM for $40B and it didn't stop it from being a rumor the last few months.

    What I find incredible is the total absence of leaks surrounding this deal. Sure, there was that rumor about a big purchase from MS, but no one expected Bethesda to be bought out.

    Looks like FFXIV setting, which was the best FF in god knows how long, so I'm all in.

    Playstation 5

    I'm not sure. Yields issue may very well be frequency related. XBoxSeX GPU runs at 1825Mhz, while the PS5 GPU runs at 2,23Ghz. Binning has to be a lot more strict if you want to reach those frequencies, even with less cores.

    Playstation 5

    Yup, first batch looks risky. They went with less cores than the Xbox but at a much higher frequency, no wonder the yields are so shitty.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I'm pretty sure the RAM is not the limiting factor here, but the scaled down GPU which must be way easier to get good yields for AMD and thus cost way less to MS. Edit: duh ,did not realize we were talking about backward compatible games, thought we were talking about Series X enhancements on...

    With the lack of fist weapons and Thief already having Daredevil with the staff, I'm suspecting staff Warrior elite spec as a monk.

    I'm still on LW3, and I kinda find Braham emo reactions annoying. Aside from him, I love everyone, especially Taimi.

    To be fair, if I'm leveling a job nowadays, i'd rather get Praetorium than Castrum. You can be on autopilot the whole time, just tab out during cutscenes, and barely any effort involved. It's rather long, but above lvl70 it's like two third of a level of xp, so definitely worth it. Also...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    They stopped doing dungeons like that after Praetorium. Well, at first cutscenes were skippable, but it was hurting the experience for new players, so they made it unskippable but a HUGE xp/tomestones bonus for people doing the roulette. I tend to enjoy Praetorium banter. I also enjoyed Eureka...

    d912pxy does wonders for stuttering yeah, game is way more smooth with it. Just need a while to compile shaders first time it loads a texture, so you get a lot of pop-in at first.

    Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines sequel? Remake?

    In a way, I'm glad it's getting fucked by publishers rather than getting fucked by SJW bullshit.

    Guild Wars 2

    Personal Story gets way better past the OG game. HoT is great, Living Season 3 after that is great too and PoF also. Haven't played through the recent ones though. Starting with HoT, it does feel like it's about you and your crew, which definitely have some nice characters.

    MSQ was fucking great yeah. Loved the send-off from the people of the First. Unlocked the second Nier raid last night, didn't see that twist coming either. Now I'm just sad we'll be getting back to Zenos and his new crazy ascian fuckboy. I've never found Zenos interesting, he should have been...

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    I fully expect them to nerf WoD treasures and bonus objectives before they release the revamp anyway. One of the hypothesis, is that they could keep the level cap to 60 forever now. Just reset everyone to 50 at the release of each expansion and have them level back up to 60. It's not like...

    If you're going for the VIP sub, you can also play on a legendary server where xp is reduced for the old classic experience. I'm sad I lost my old account back when Codemasters or whatever was managing EU servers and it was an opt-in transfer and I missed it a the time. I really want to get...

    Oh god yeah, Thanatos or whatever in Laby. You know it's not the actual mechanic that kills people most of the time (because it's dumb as fuck), but the greed. Never ever think you can finish burning the boss before it ends the cast, because half the raid will do the mechanic anyway and you'll...

    I feel like there were 2 bosses that could be unforgiving in alliance raids while they were current : - Ozma : dropping adds correctly, and for some reasons people would fuck up the "stop doing anything" mechanic. Then again, I don't think the dice marker for the second mechanic existed back...

    AoT twist came late though, until then, it was basically the classical "last humans surviving in a city" trope.

    The Japaneses love it so much Famitsu gave the game a perfect score (40/40). It's only the 3rd western game to get such a score in Famitsu's whole history. The two others were GTAV and Skyrim.

    I like it. At least it's not another Attack on TItan/Kabaneri type story rehash. Nothing more cliche than "last surviving human city fighting monsters that invaded the world".
