John Smedley is a piece of shit. Thanks for ruining multiple MMOs and staining the wonderful memories I shared with so many other adventurers.

mojo, do gaming w Every Bethesda RPG, ranked from worst to best

I immediately know Morrowind would be the top. The game has not aged well.

I almost gave up on Starfield because the main quest is just chasing MacGuffins around the universe, apparently? But I started doing the Ryujin Industries side quests and those are kinda fun I guess.

averyminya,

The side quests really make the game. My issue came down to after that first playthrough I did all the quests… So in ng+ what do I do, different choices?

t3rmit3,

the ng+ actually have some crazy changes to the game, that are randomized. You can either get a normal world, or 1 of 10+ altered worlds.

averyminya,

I remember seeing those articles. It was just tough putting together a life and stacked character and complete quests to throw it away for my experience which was another normal boring one (clarify, only boring because it was all exactly the same, I liked my first playthrough).

I like the game, it has a strong message behind it. It’s tough rebuilding your mantis ship decked with other quest ship materials and your alignments when you get a not crazy NG+

While I know they just wanted to shit on Starfield, but at least I like how they’ve put Oblivion & Morrowind at the top, because I agree those two are by far the best on this list.

As for Starfield, It’s basically Skyrim in space. To me most of the criticisms Starfield gets outside of the -to me- irrelevant technicalities (loading screens, performance) apply to Skyrim as well. I played Skyrim at release and I was super disappointed, now playing Starfield felt largely the same, but a wee bit better. I don’t think the whole RPG progression system makes sense in a scifi rpg shooter, so that part is worse than Skyrim obviously, but at the same time the planets & various biomes make open world exploration more fun to me, though the main story is equally bad & there are a lot of immersion breaking things that make no sense “in space”. For example I love the digipick minigame, but it’s immersion breaking as f. (and then there is that part where I just joined a serious intergalactic organization & after like 1-2 missions they sent me on a diplomatic quest to decide the fate of the galaxy, basically)

finickydesert, do gaming w Valve warns Counter-Strike 2 players: use AMD's Anti-Lag feature, get banned
@finickydesert@lemmy.ml avatar

So lag is officially part of counter strike?

thingsiplay,
@thingsiplay@kbin.social avatar

The Anti-Lag software from AMD seems to get flagged as some sort of cheating from the Anti Cheat software by Valve, as it tempers the Counter Strike code. In other words, its not compatible. AMD should have tested and worked together with Valve, before shipping the update. It's not to blame Valve, because the Anti Cheat software works as intended, but AMD, because they did not work with Valve before launching their software.

Anti-lag has been in the amd drivers for a long time. This seems more to be caused by Valve rushing CS2 out the door so the drivers couldn't be thoroughly tested.

NOTE! The content contained in this article is based on Radeon™ Software Adrenalin 2019 Edition 19.12.1 and earlier Adrenalin Edition drivers.

conciselyverbose,

No, it's caused by AMD deciding hijacking CS's execution was acceptable.

It's more standard than standard that you can't do that in a competitive game.

conciselyverbose,

If you inject code, they ban you. Seems pretty straight forward.

They said they'll unban when they can identify them correctly, but it's not their fault.

odious, do games w Warfare MMO Foxhole is adding naval combat complete with huge multi-person ships
@odious@feddit.de avatar

The game looks interesting - is it possible to play it somewhat casually? Like for at most 2 hours at a time?

james,

Absolutely. It really depends what you want to do. Jump straight into the frontline meat grinder and you’ll be able to dip out whenever you like. You could even do some basic logistics runs in that time. Start building bases or factories and that’s when there’s a huge time commitment lol

That’s totally fine.

Mononon, do games w VR still makes 40-70% of players want to throw up, and that's a huge problem for the companies behind it

Big range. My main issue is just convenience. I have a PSVR2, and it’s just a pain to use. Like, you really have to dedicate yourself to using it. It has never felt like something you just do spur of the moment. You can’t just sit back and relax.

zeusbottom, do games w VR still makes 40-70% of players want to throw up, and that's a huge problem for the companies behind it

VR was fine for me until I landed on a planet in Elite: Dangerous. The rover pitching back and forth was way too much. Never again will I put a headset on.

xuv,

There is a comfort mode setting for the ED rover that keeps your view level to the horizon while the rover moves around you.

zeusbottom,

There is, and it absolutely failed to be a comfort when I tried it after I got sick the first time. The comfort mode functioned, but my brain was done with VR. I could not even use Google Earth VR without getting queasy.

Yeah still have my Rift CV1, but it is sitting in a box.

@candle_lighter@lemmy.ml avatar

Where does that statistic come from and why is the range so broad? I also don’t think it’s a big deal because even if you do get motion sick, after playing enough you don’t get motion sick anymore. (people in the vr community call it getting your vr legs)
