The DHS equating people being arrest &OR deported to fighting the flood was surreal. I had to do a double take.

Guaranteed, he’s going to count the Console Wars in his list of wars he’s ended.

ShaggySnacks,

For the first gif when Tom Cruise throws the football back and the people behind him fall back.

That’s when next song and dance starts. Top Gun is a musical right?

Ha, Somehow no.

Fuck EA.

BuboScandiacus, (edited ) do gaming w Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 is richly authentic, intriguingly written, dripping with brooding atmosphere, and… not very fun to play, unfortunately
@BuboScandiacus@mander.xyz avatar

Ah yes

Waiting for the unofficial patch then, true to VTMB1

A personnal opinion: I feel that this game might become one of my all-time favorites, considering that CybP77 is already part of that group. It being a game, that if described as having simply an “amazing atmosphere and cyberpunk world”, would be blatantly undervalued as it is the best in that regard, second to none, with additionaly very good writing and… not so great combat… The description given by the journalist describes perfectly the cyberpunk 2077 combat system too; some tactics/ cyberware (disciplines) are to annoying or hard to use to be effective and others are just instant win buttons (looking at you sandevistan (celerity)).

I’m optimistic for the moment, but we’ll see.

JohnEdwa,

One of the best builds to make CP2077 absolutely horrible to play is stealth + tech weapons. You spend all of you time crouched behind boxes, first trying akwardly to sneak your way in, and then shooting through them with the wallhack weapons.

Meanwhile other players clear the same mission in 45 seconds looking like the worlds biggest action hero badass with sandevistan and katanas and hacks and shit :D

Hacks is pretty much the same early game

Stealth is just bad overall, like in most games where it isn’t the main way to do things, as both the player playing stealthily and the one playing like rambo must be able to complete the mission and earn the same rewards

Professorozone, do games w 'Borderlands 4 is a premium game made for premium gamers' is Randy Pitchford's tone deaf retort to the performance backlash: 'If you're trying to drive a monster truck with a leaf blower's motor, you're going to be disappointed'

Did not read the article. I have a 3070 graphics card (windows 10)and the game ran fine. I had a problem with not being able to select a different weapon until I messed with it quite a bit and my friend had one crash. He has a 3050.

Frankly I expected much worse, but this is just not a good response. Is he using this as an excuse NOT to fix it?

Flatfire,

While I have no desire to defend Randy, Twitter is as Twitter does, and unless you spend time looking at his whole timeline, it sounds like he’s saying only stupid shit like this. He did actually acknowledge the issues, and stated that they’re working on them but also that for now the best way to play is with FSR/DLSS and frame gen.

I disagree with this deeply. He makes arguments about the imperceptibility of latency in frame gen, but that’s only true when the base framerate is high enough. DLSS is probably fine, but it’s also pretty fair for those who are using an 80 or 90 class card to complain about struggling at 1440p native, let alone 4k.

Professorozone,

Thanks.

billwashere,

How dare you have a reasonable response when we all just wanna be pissed. /s

But seriously some people should just not interact with the public. It’s a thankless job and you have to have very thick skin and the patience of a saint. I also have a theory that a large percentage of CEOs are sociopaths/psychopaths so …

Same argument Sony gave when EverQuest 2 launched with stupid high required specs. World of Warcraft launched a month later you could run on any video card from the last 5 years and the whole franchise still hasn’t recovered.

Unfortunately it doesn’t matter what any of us say…the damage is done. I saw something like 200k online on steam. Unless most of them refund the negative reviews are meaningless. Pretend it was only 200k on steam and they bought just the “shitty” $70 version. …who knows how many bought on other platforms as well. They made a lot of money already is all I’m saying and I wish they didn’t. Games junk.

Make it perform well, then we can talk premium.

It’s basically the “AAAA-game” bit again

It’s more akin to trying to drive a semi truck with a semi truck motor but then something drops and there’s a ton of friction like an unintentional tractor pull. Even the best chips on the market display subpar performance.

Meh I’ve been feeling that since 2018, release of RTX cards and raytracing marketing hype. Since then my perception towards AAA games have become harder to reach; require newer hardware, bigger disk space, better internet to download and more expensive price.

Though that already happen for a decade maybe. Battlefield 3 and 4 all DLC require 40-60 GB download. That would eat about 10 hours download.
