    Dragon's Dogma 2

    Yet another "meh" effort for a full priced game... yawn. I'll have another look at the end of the year.

    Beautiful song, but complete spoiler if you haven't seen the movie.

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

    The problem I have with Grim Dawn, is the engine is dogshit. Combat/ragdoll physics/spell effects (vaseline + jello), all look and feel like dogshit to me. This old mutt really needs to be taken out the back of the bicycle shed and shot, several times. I'm not trolling, I backed the...

    Also picked this up on sale. Game got some really bad press when it was first released in 2018, so I basically forgot about it. Looks and plays great in ultrawide, and they seem to have really nailed the 40K aesthetic. General audio, voicework (male AND female), and music is all top notch...

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

    After ranting about the loot a few weeks ago, I uninstalled. Hardly ever do that, unless it's some indie game I got on deep sale that I disliked from the outset. So many things would have to be redesigned, few of which I'd ever expect to see, I just sort of went "what's the point?" Don't miss it...

    The original footage keeps getting taken down, but this one seems to have survived because the video has been butchered on purpose. Audio is untouched. I've seen the original and Gaga's performance here is just extraordinary. Elton and Bernie look pretty pleased.

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    I'm with Nirgon on this one. Still haven't bought BG3, already planned to wait another year for the "Enhanced Edition". By then it should be possible to mod every last bit of this nonsense out of the game. If not, I'll probably have lost interest anyway.

    They can just blame a Microsoft Exec. The timing is perfect.

    In addition, there's the stash/loot Companion a full season early, and early access to an in-game unique/aspect. Well, it took less then 6 months for a Suit to walk in and tear up all the promises. If this is a genuine leak, impressive.

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

    I got to WT4 in S2 and it finally dawned on me that the loot in this game actually pisses me off. Every time my inventory fills up, I'm aggravated in some way, every fucking time. No need to expand on it, but until the entire loot "system" is revamped to not be complete aids, I'm done. Don't...

    Alan Wake 2

    Already knew it was a dead loss on my 1080Ti anyway, but finally found a proper review. Kinda funny just HOW bad it is for people without HW Mesh Shader support.

    This recent discussion got me thinking, so just for kicks I installed Fortnite, thinking that surely, at least the engine designers can make this thing scale. =) Yeah, it's a cartoony shooter, but it does have some impressive lighting, textures, and effects, even ignoring Nanite and Lumen. No...

    I still have quite a few more pixels to push than you, but I have no problem with FSR 2 either. It looks great in D4 at least, only title I have that uses it. Should have mentioned I have fps capped to monitor refresh, so just testing, turned off VRR/Vsync and removed the cap. Now D4 runs at...

    That's the "id Tech" engine, not sure which version. John Carmack's last baby before he left id Software I believe. He was, and probably still is, a genius. lol

    Same guy tested Lords of the Fallen. Passed on it for similar reasons, but in that case it wouldn't run higher than ~70fps @ 1080p all LOW settings on a 3070. These engines just don't scale, or the developers are not trying, or both. It's a disaster. However, I'm happily playing D4 on my 1080Ti...

    Just the first ~ 3 minutes of this video is a head-shaker. Ridiculous.

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

    Immediately noticed apart from the increased mount speed, is that the mob density in the overworld has been massively buffed. Also my 85 Necro seems to be noticeably more powerful, melting event mobs seemingly twice as fast.

    Lords of the Fallen

    Welp, found a couple of good benchmarking videos, and it seems that neither a 3060 nor a 2080 (both close to my 1080Ti apparently) can manage more than ~70fps at native 1080p, even paired with the very latest CPUs and with EVERY graphic setting on LOW. So that's never going to fly on my rig...
