About 40% through Hogwarts Legacy at the moment. It’s been great so far, very impressive especially coming from the old HP games on PC. Fixed up some performance issues with the Ascendio mod, and all works fairly well on my (ancient, circa 2014) rig.

Lies of P is a solid game! It really clicked for me after the 4th main boss. Heavy, slow weapons seems to be more useful in a second playthrough, and I’m finding some NG+ fights easier than the original NG fights.

Aside from that, I’ve been playing M&B Bannerlord with lots of mods. Not an amazing game, per se, but still very nostalgic for me.

I looked at this game because it got a day one release on Mac and looked cool. May have to check it out.

TheOakTree,

I didn’t know it was released on Mac at all! I hope you enjoy it if you pick it up. The game gets pretty hard, but if you are willing to learn the boss patterns it’s a ton of fun.

Diablo 4: Season 2 - Completed the Season Journey thanks to some nice randoms hanging out outside of Duriel's dungeon. That is one thing that I do like about playing D4, there's always someone hanging around somewhere to help you out. And if the end of the first two seasons are anything to go by, I'll definitely be needing those someones towards the end of every season.

Diablo 3: Season 30 - Finished Chapter 1-3. Working on Chapter 4.

Firewatch - I picked up this game on GamePass because I needed a little break before I started a new game plus run of Alan Wake 2 and wanted something that wouldn't take me more than one night. I knew going into this game that it was going to be "solving" a mystery, but I did not expect it to play out the way it did, or it to be such a story driven game. Even starting out in the first 10ish minutes I didn't expect the game to go in the direction that it did. It was a bit of a slow burn (wink wink nudge nudge), but it was a lot of fun, especially since it's one of those games where you come up with a theory of what's going on and then second guess yourself over and over. Plus the whole time I was walking around from objective to objective, I kept having the thought of how cool it would be to just roam around without a looming goal hanging over my head, and lo and behold, after I finished the game, a free roam setting was unlocked.

Alan Wake 2 - Gave in and started a new game plus. This game has got me in a chokehold right now, even with its many, many problems that keep popping up. Kind of wish some more was changed based on the events of the first playthrough, and I'm not a big fan of how they treated ng+ inventory or some gameplay decisions that Remedy made, but I'm still having fun.

When I started, I was super disappointed, because the world was basically empty, except for towns and some of the events. I was hoping it's because I started so late, and I was kinda right. However on the higher difficulties, there are a bunch of people at the different hot spots all over the world, which gives me hope for the new season, that it's not just going to be empty 90% of the time.

I’ve been playing Baldur’s Gate 3 for the last few weeks and somewhere Warframe here and there when I don’t have enough time to get list with BG3.

Is this a troll post? Who cares in which store it’s available, just get a physical copy.

Steam shills are really mind boggling.

Most PC games nowadays do not have physical releases.

GeneralVincent,

Is this a troll comment? You seemed to have missed the point of the post.

PC gamers love PC gaming because it’s more open and you’re not locked into a certain ecosystem. Ubisoft artificially limiting their online release to two launchers (both known for being poor quality/buggy/feature lacking) is frustrating. Buying a hard copy might be possible, but Ubisoft did this on purpose to squeeze out a little extra profit. It shows they’re more than happy to put profits over customers. A customer being annoyed this release excludes their preferred launcher doesn’t make anyone a shill.

It’s just another software it’s not like you have to buy separate hardware for it.

I don’t hate the idea of exclusive games because they kind of bring more competitions. But I also couldn’t give too much fucks because Ubisoft games suck anyway.

Glad you’re enjoying the CRPG. There’s plenty of older stuff that’s great in that vein too, one of my favorite older CRPGs that has a great story is Planescape: Torment.

this service claims:

“Ad based search engines make almost $300 a year off their users.

Google generated $76 billion in US ad revenue in 2023. Google had 274 million unique visitors in the US as of February 2023.

To estimate the revenue per user, we can divide the 2023 US ad revenue by the 2023 number of users: $76 billion / 274 million = $277 revenue per user in the US or $23 USD per month, on average! That means there is someone, somewhere, a third party and a complete stranger, an advertiser, paying $23 per month for your searches.”

Would that factor in the [unknown] costs of that revenue? Running all the servers (incl youtube), offices and staff aint cheap. So more likely some is paying enough to leave 23USD on top of massive costs.

Dobre CV to podstawa. Aplikując na jakieś stanowisko upewnij się że w CV zawarłeś słowa klucze który były w ogłoszeniu (czyli konkretne eumiejetnosci, jakiś soft itd itp) - to zwiększy Twoje szanse.

Druga sprawa CV im prostsze tym lepsze, najlepiej jednokolumnowe. Kilka bulletpointow, wymień jakieś rzeczy które zrealizowałeś a nie czym się zajmowałeś (np. realizacja x dla klienta x, dostarczenie x).

Od dobrego CV bym zaczal, robionego samodzielnie a nie w jakim kreatorze.

@nudnyekscentryk@szmer.info avatar

ehhhh, CV mam zrobione samodzielnie (bo dla mnie użycie kreatora cv to najgorsze lenistwo które powinno skreślać kandydata lol), jednostronne, z:

  • doświadczeniem zawodowym (2 pozycje z zakresem obowiązków)
  • wykształceniem (2 pozycje)
  • językami obcymi (3 pozycje z wymienionymi pięcioma certyfikatami)
  • innymi kwalifikacjami (znajomość oprogramowania na którym pracuje i jakieś standardy typu prawo jazdy i office)

i oczywiście formułka rodo w stopce

rozwiniesz o co chodzi z rzeczami, które “zrealizowałem, a nie którymi się zajmowałem”? mówisz żeby wymienić konkretne osiągnięcia a nie ogólny zakres obowiązków?

!deleted621 avatar

Dokładnie. Nie wiem na jakim stanowisku pracujesz ale nawet jako pracownik biurowy można trochę ubarwić. Zamiast pisać obsługa ksero czy drukarki to np przygotowanie dokumentacji produkcyjnej w realizacji projektu. Wybrać jakies istotne dla Twojej firmy zlecenie i napisać w jaki sposób pomogłeś w jego realizacji. Opisywać sukcesy raczej a nie obowiązki.

So I recently have been playing Cult of the Lamb, a few Doom wads, and had been trying to get some Skyrim mods wokring…

More excitiingly though I was actually approached by this company called Maple Leaf Studio to playtest this game called Realm of Ink. Haven’t mentioned it much on my social medias mainly because they had me sign an NDA. The game is quite fun and very pretty, it’s kind of like Hades but has this awesome art style themed off of Chinese Mythology.

Now that the demo’s public though I’m allowed to talk about it, the link’s here if you wanna check it out - store.steampowered.com/app/2597080/Realm_of_Ink/
