I don’t think I played anything over the past week. I’ve been thinking about trying some fresh builds in nova drift, which is in it’s final steps to full release.

I remembered that I played dragons dogma 2, as I also did last night and there is something inherently wrong with the later parts in that game. I’m wandering through the desert sections of the map, clearing everything as I go, and I’ve flat out lost pawns while just walking on major paths. They get stuck running into a cliff face somewhere and no commands or anything else will tell them to knock it off. I literally have to go to them, pick them up, and move them away from the wall. I must have missed one of them getting this stuck as she simply despawned completely instead of teleporting back to the group. I have been besieged by roaming groups of what might as well be orcs only to look at the minimal and realize my front men are somewhere 100m back. It’s so incredibly frustrating.

I guess do you mean with the cartoonish demeanor or just boxing ones as a whole? Have seen a few on playstation systems like knockout kings but they try and be all serious with it.

sleepybisexual,

More the gameplay aspect, basically just boxing games that don’t try to be fighters

Actually I might just try to beat the nes one first.

Telorand,

“Arms” for the Switch might be something to look into. I haven’t played it, but it’s kind of a cartoonish boxing game.

sleepybisexual,

I’ve played the demo, its a good game, but not really what im looking for + don’t wanna give Nintendo money after all tbr bs that went down recently

I likely grabbed this game from when it was given away, but its still cool that it is available. Also got a few Steam profile items but never used em.

Nice, thanks. I remember when this game came out, and I only ever got to play it once at a friends house. Will be interested to see it!

To me it has a similar feel to some of the later Sonic games, but without the fear of falling off the level. I recommend checking out a how to play guide because it just jumps in without explaining.

  • Minimum: Windows 10

N00b22,

They don’t seem to realize that core managing is done better in W11 than in W10

thingsiplay,

Is this proven? I’m not using Windows, so just asking out of curiosity.

N00b22,
thingsiplay,

The linked page isn’t actually proving your statement being true. It just explains in theory. Which was my point, if there are benchmarks that prove this undeniably being true. Especially in context to gaming. If a game is not fully utilizing multithreading technology, then it wouldn’t much benefit from the better ThreadDirector. Maybe this game doesn’t benefit from it much.

N00b22,

Yeah, you’re right. My bad

narc0tic_bird,

Intel Thread Director has been backported to Windows 10, and it wouldn’t affect AMD CPUs anyway. Windows 10 has shown slightly better performance in games compared to Windows 11 in many tests.

For a game from 2024 this looks very standard to me. Assuming this is correct I’d get about the performance I would expect from my hardware.

These are hardly surprisingly high System requirements, at least if the game looks the part. Achieving 1080p60 at medium settings on an RTX 2080, which performs pretty much on par with an even older flagship card (1080 Ti) sounds about right.

CPU requirements aren’t that out of place either, and I doubt you’ll actually need a 14900K for 60 FPS.

I’ve been PC gaming for coming up to 40 years now and I can say it’s always been like this. It’s just what it is. The new games require huge amounts of hardware and that’s okay.

They’re pushing the envelope and you might not be able to play it yet, but one day you’ll be playing it on your phone, or on your toothbrush.

  • expected quality settings: (Low|Medium|High|Ultra) check
  • expected resolution: (720p|1080p|1440p|2160p) check
  • expected fps: (30|60|60|60) check

Good list. Too many specs forget about these basic information. But what about the “NETWORK: High-speed Internet connection”? I assume a connection is required while playing, because of some anti cheat or DRM? And why is High-speed connection required to play the game? Is no offline play possible?

N00b22,

The game seems it will be always-online. That is a bummer considering to what happened to the OG The Crew

Maybe they don’t want to sell too many copies

…and Wade Hixton’s Counter Punch.

I haven’t played either of them, so no promises that they’re good!

sleepybisexual,

Playing wade its good

SlothMama, do games w Lemmings, what is the Evercade console brand like?
