    There are patches with higher gacha currency but it's usually stuff like half anniversary/anniversary, or sometimes seasonal patches like christmas/chinese new year/summer kind of thing, just depends on the games. Events specifically yes some will give a lot of pulls while others won't. That's...

    They're adding harder content soon-ish though so I want the team to be done pretty much(well not done done, all the other chars are 70 and they skills are at like 6 cause that shit's too expensive) before I move on to another.

    Right 6* sometimes I get confused when games have 6* since it's just the same thing with a higher number, hell there isn't even any 123. I'll probably get Lifeng just to have them all. Sadly don't have any mats to build a 2nd team though, and this stupid Laevatein essence isn't popping, I think...

    FIFA and other EA similar products are definitely just sports gacha, no difference. And I wasn't saying people don't play them on phones/tablets at all, just that a significant amount don't, but there's still a lot that do play on mobile devices, hell probably a majority just because of the...

    As for the news, nice free 5*. Not sure who I want to get, I have all standards other than LiFeng but I really don't care about him, on the flipside he's quite good for the non Endmin phys team. Dupes of other chars don't matter all that much either so maybe I'll grab him. Rest is kinda...

    The thing is this goes for a lot of modern gachas, a lot of people play them on consoles/PC. Hell some of them run like shit unless you have the absolute best phones(like WuWa) but you can tell they do well on other platforms because they get awards and shit like that(since they usually don't...

    I wish they'd show more of the other 2 chars. Wonder how complete that whole thing is, cause for years they've only been showing the fighter guy which is fine, but in that last teaser they had the giant berserker with the cannon and the woman valkyrie with a pistol and wondering if it's like a...

    Yeah you end up getting like 5-6m a day I think, but even then the 1m you can get from other's depots is nice cause the expensive stuff is well, expensive. Although this is something that I'll stop doing once I get tired of it since it's not that valuable either, just need to buy out the...

    Ashes of Creation

    A good amount of them yeah. Going through the wikipedia list and noting the ones that did quite well, there's Pillars of Eternity, Wasteland 2&3, Divinity Original Sin 1&2, Outter Wilds, Bard's Tale IV, Bloodstained, Crosscode, Shadowrun, Hollow Knight, Darkest Dungeon, Kingdom Come, Rimworld...

    The 2nd outpost can use LC batteries so it's not wasted. You'll need to redo all your factories once you find sandleaves anyway(I think it's in power station the first time?) so it's not big deal and you can keep the outposts low on stock bills just trading random garbage like origicrust or...

    Na Wuling is just not finished so everything caps at like lvl 2, it's like 85k for the delivery then a part is paid instantly so the actual job is ~70k I think most of the time. The tickets are also not THAT good because you simply don't have the stamina to run them anyway, especially if you...

    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...

    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...

    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...
