    Arknights Endfield

    For draining I think you need to use the other thing that transfer water from one place to another on the other end and then it does it super fast? I haven't done the quest yet though, I think I know which one I picked it up yesterday when I was putting up ziplines everywhere but I'm still...

    Arknights Endfield

    There's a lot of gachas on the market, including their more or less direct competitors with Genshin and WuWa, so people are going to compare to gambling mechanics. Fact is in this game, it's kinda shit so far, they needlessly made it more complex, and added extra layers of FOMO, and there's...

    Arknights Endfield

    I thought you could run originium near the base? Then again I might have skipped it cause I was trying to get the outpost unlocked for dailies. Anyway the starting point was pretty easy, progress story until sky forge unlocks(or until the end since at that point it's already the end anyway...

    "Alright gonna fix up my bases a bit then do my dailies". 6hours later "Oh fuck I have 20mins to do my dailies" But eh at least 2 of my Valley bases look neat and are producing a ton of shit now. Gonna make some cryton or whatever in the 3rd so I can replace every zipline with automatic pathing...

    Code Vein

    Ah was about to say that's how the first one is but yeah you were talking about that one, yeah that's just the kind of game it is, it's a lot closer to action jrpgs like Tales than Souls, although the combat has some similarities with Souls. I got bored pretty quick in the first one and shelved...

    I've been having fun with this, not that far yet cause I spent 2 days rerolling for fire lady(only took 49 accounts... and only after they gave 10pulls to every account), but I'm liking it a lot more than I did Wuwa when I played that. Usually not too much into open world but the zones are...

    True but he had some cool and unique concepts and some of the games were really fun. As flawed as it was I really liked Black and White. Anyway this new Fable looks like shit, definitely gunning for the '26 Veilguard spot.

    New World

    Protecting the IP, making sure some execs don't get to see how someone else could make the game work if they just did x, potentially re-opening it later(unlikely). Ultimately they're not going to sell the game for 25m, hell they could have probably made 25m keeping the game running with no/few...

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

    By the time it gets there, every AI tool will be riddled with personnalized ads and multiple subscription plan where only the highest plan actually makes any fucking sense as a user, that they will bump up every couple of years while reducing the services provided. Because the numbers always...

    Hytale

    Looking at the actual game, it looks pretty neat, the first thing I noticed is combat actually doesn't look like the dogshit stuff they have in Minecraft so that's a plus for me. Still no rush to buy though, I'll give it a few years to get more shit to do.

    JRPGs

    Yeah mostly I'm just looking at a Chrono Trigger or FF6 VISUAL remake with the fancy looking style they have for these, but nothing else pretty much. There was a quote from a Square guy saying they might consider remaking FF6 but it sounded like they wanted to do something like 7 and I really...

    Well don't know either way, but it's quite possible it's just the devs being incompetent and doing shit they shouldn't do because "it works" rather than being malicious.

    Steam deck portable handheld gaming PC from Valve

    Doesn't the DS4 work on the PS3? Iirc they were backward compatible, just won't get the newer features, but could be wrong. You can also fix drift usually by changing the sticks, including by replacing them with DS4 ones which are much easier to source. For the batteries, they are usually...

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

    Well the way it's going there might not be a next Nvidia card to buy anyway so it's going to be an easier "choice" from now on.

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

    DLSS 4.5 works for any RTX card so anything 20xx and above, just the framegen is locked to 50xx cards. From what I reading from early reports though the new 4.5 DLSS is higher quality at the cost of performance, so it's basically not worth using on 20/30 series, but it can be fine for 40/50...

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

    Btw new Nvidia drivers came out with a new version of DLSS(4.5) which well, will look better supposedly. Also comes with even more fake frames gen for 50xx series if you're into that, all the way to 6x, which I'm sure looks like a bad acid trip but also some dynamic frame gen so it doesn't...

    So got my new PC today, went all the stages of grief of new PC shit, starting with waiting for the delivery guy to show up(will they actually show up, will they park in the street for 2mins then drive off and pretend I wasn't there) but he did show up, tried to jet out of there after ringing but...

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

    Oh right I didn't think about that, there are indeed a few specific niche genres where it might be good too like flight/racing sims since these are pretty heavy on reqs and are pretty much PC only.

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

    At least as far as gaming is concerned, you are future proof if you have more than the consoles, because ain't no way Sony releasing a PS6 with ram being the way it is right now anyway and if they do they'll skimp heavily on it to cut costs so game developpers will have to deal with this shit...

    Path of Exile 2

    It likely wouldn't have, had they fixed it quickly so the impact was minimal. PoE1 bans were very random(even back when Chris was still there), where sometimes they'd ban, and sometimes not. Old drama video from Ziz from Ultimatum league and he goes over some of past exploits that did get bans...

    Path of Exile 2

    Ban for what, running campaign maps for non RNG league mechanics? If only they could have predicted that by fixing it like 2years ago in PoE1 and not forgot to fix it in PoE2 also. Hell if I remember correctly in Synthesis they had the exact same issue of people farming tiles in campaign to...

    Was browsing various online shops seeing what how much it'd cost me to build a PC with every price getting fucked, and seems I lucked out and found a last remaining prebuilt in some shop with a sale on it that saves me like 1000euros buying the exact same thing separately cause it wasn't...

    Witchfire (Early Access)

    They have a roadmap for that stuff, it seems to missing stuff is basically one last zone and then a "story" with 1.0 being in 2026. I'd expect late spring/summer kind of release. I don't know how much a story will add to the game but well. I'm fine waiting a bit longer, there's a few other games...

    Warframe

    Sorry I didn't mean it becomes a lot better in terms of gameplay really, but in terms of having to build stuff. The fact is, gameplay at low level is very similar to gameplay in endgame. Bit slower mostly and you might not be able to fix energy issues as easily, but the way you play fully geared...

    Warframe

    I think the game definitely becomes a lot better when you 1) unlock Steel Path which is like hard mode and forces you to properly build chars 2) get to more recent content that is usually tuned to be more challenging even on normal, like roughly once you reach The New War and past that. Early...

    Divinity

    I think they're like this cause they were added over time. Explorer is easy, classic is normal, tactician is hard(it was added later in a patch, changes some encounters to add more mobs and different mechs and what not) and story mode I don't remember but if I had to guess it's journalist...

    Path of Exile 2

    Personally I quite like act 1, teaches you to dodge out of shit and stuff. I do think some skills should be available earlier though, but I think I'd compress it so you get all your skills by half of act2 rather than put everything in act1. It's starting around act3 that it gets tiresome as...

    The new Sorc clears really quickly while leveling once you get the ascendancy+decent spectres. It's pretty slow early on though.

    Once AI actually becomes good enough that it's not spottable constantly and show a lack of QA to save money, I think it'll be fine, currently though people just notice it pretty easily and when you have companies making tens of millions of dollars a month with live service shit skimping on...

    Too lazy to check source but a reddit post comparing it sais last year was even lower(9% iirc it said), it is a consistent statistic, a lot of people just don't play the lastest game because of money/sales, because they wait for later versions, because they just play older games or some genres...

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

    Yeah I'm considering a 5070ti too cause the prices are actually around MSRP which is significantly lower than 5080 prices I'm seeing. I was thinking I'd wait next gen but Nvidia cutting production means their next cards are either going to be delayed or ship in ridiculously small numbers and not...

    Man the whole system is super fucked because of all the AI shit. I've been putting off upgrading and now I basically need to BUY NOW or just get fucked for an inderterminate amount of time that is likely going to be much longer than the Covid fuckery because there's no way AI crashes that...

    Total War: Warhammer 40,000

    Main issue for me about DLCs is the races I want to play the most will likely be held back for game2 like they did with Fantasy. I want Tyranids mostly and then Necrons and I feel the Nid/Necron/Tau stuff will be the launch factions for the 2nd game because they're big, meanwhile first game only...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Oh yeah that panel should be nice too I've had a couple of sidebars I can probably get rid of, or at least most of them cause I think the new panel doesn't allow for keybindings and I'm using stuff there for some classes with too many buttons and a few other things. That said I'll likely just...

    Total War: Warhammer 40,000

    Yeah probably preorder faction so going to be 5, but tbh makes sense they do have deadlines and shit to make so they can't really be launching with 25 races. Can always just wait a year before buying it, saves money, get patches, and they'll probably add 2-3 factions in that time.

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Some people play secondary chars so they can play another race without having to fantasia, or because they're addicts and need to have "stuff to do" so they raid twice a week instead of using their time for anything else, but yeah this is definitely one game where I've never felt the need to...

    I think it'll bring the refreshing PoE1 experience of pathing straight out into stats nodes to rush some minion nodes and ignore the starting area entirely. Riveting few early levels.

    I think Druids looks pretty nice, the rest of the patch looks quite meh. I disliked Synthesis "make your own map" shit a lot especially since there was a lot of optimization to make it good and didn't play Kalandra so not sure if it was much better but that shit gets tedious quickly. The new...
