Nie wiem, ale jeżeli innych nie ma to zapraszamy do Łodzi. Cały tydzień wypełniony różnymi wydarzeniami (co na taką pustynię jak Łódź jest sporym osiągnięciem).
Sometimes I’ll buy games on sale I have no intention to ever play. Y’know, because of the lingering guilt from the last time I played them but didn’t buy them
I played the beta on PS5 Pro and exactly had the same impression. It didn’t look good. Everything muddy and blurred, even in quality mode. In performance mode its even worse.
Personally, I didn’t have the impression that anything had changed much in the final release. The miserable graphics and performance definitely spoiled my enjoyment of the game after only 2-3 hours into the game.
There’s literally no reason to buy a game until the minute before you’re going to play it. It’s not like digital copies sell out or takes time to ship. Add games you want to play to our wishlist and buy them when you’re actually ready to play them.
I adopted this philosophy a few years ago and have bought maybe 2 games since. I played them immediately and had fun. Meanwhile I have no interest in playing my backlog games anymore. I don’t have time for them.
Income is the reason I will (typically) wait for the big sales to purchase games. I don’t have as much disposable income, so its much easier to justify spending $60 on three $20 games if they’ve been on my wishlist (or seem very appealing to me) for example than it is on one $60 game.
While I do agree with you, unfortunately games do get delisted from store fronts due to licensing deals or for whatever reason the publisher feels like. Like Ubisoft did with The Crew, even removing it from your library if you already owned it.
You’re not alone, my 2060 brother. As my build gets further into it’s twilight years I stick almost exclusively to smaller indie titles.
I bought my wife that Harry Potter game a while back and I don’t even want to try it. Even on potato mode it’s like 20fps in outdoor maps. She doesn’t seem to mind the shitty frames, thankfully.
Starfield was maybe one of the last ”modern games” I could run. 1080p and 30fps locked because It couldn’t handle steady 40fps. I havent bought any games made in 2024 or 2025. I mostly just buy older games that are now available -90% or something. My latest purchase was a remaster ed. for a 20 year old game which price was now all time low.
I haven’t tried starfield yet, but it looks interesting and I suspect I could run it at lower settings since I’m pretty sure it runs a modified Skyrim engine and Skyrim runs just fine.
Totally with you on older games on high discount. I picked up Metal Gear Rising Revengence for super cheap last year and that game is almost a decade old. I think the older rig has really helped maintain discipline to wait out the hype till games are older and I can enjoy them at a much lower cost.
can’t wait to sink my teeth into that game… right after I finally get around to getting better PC parts
tried the demo and the framerate was noticeably bad even after messing about with the settings
I mainly blame myself for putting up with Intel integrated graphics until now, but then again, putting “texture quality” below “very high” removes the characters’ pupils, so maybe the game’s just poorly optimised 🤷
Ah that’s a shame. The game looks nice, but there’s not that much going on, so you shouldn’t need an expensive rig to run it, so I imagine it’s a bit poorly optimized.
A friend turned me on to Sea of Thieves, and that’s been loads of fun. I’m a bit surprised , because I’ve never really been into pvp games at all. But we get together and hang out on the couch and shout pirate stuff at each other every other night now. Really does a good job of encouraging teamwork and providing a platform for fun hijinks, rather than a guided story.
The new fire megalodons are my bane, though. Have yet to beat one, or even successfully survive one! But they look so cool I feel like a fly drawn toward a bug zapper.
I’ve always maintained that it’s a library, not a backlog. A backlog is a chore, a task I have to finish.
A library is a catalogue of new, exciting experiences waiting for me to have them!
I also happen to live in a rural area with radio Internet so when I decide I want to play a game it’s many, many hours for it to install and be playable. Heck, sometimes I can order a physical game and it’ll arrive by delivery faster than I can install it.
Also some console games are still physically on the cartridge/disc and it’s becoming more and more of a rarity. As long as the media and systems hold up you can still actually own these games. It’s sometimes worth not sleeping on these because, as I’m sure we can all see, they’re a drying breed. Same thing with (most) GOG games: if you download and save the backup installers you can have actual ownership over titles purchased there.
www.doesitplay.org is a wonderful resource to find out if a physical game you buy is actually on the media it comes on.
And, unfortunately, some digital games are going somewhere. Delisted games have become a real problem for preservationists. You can find a whole list of them here: delistedgames.com
All that said I support the notion of less consumption and more meaningful consumption when it occurs. Don’t let FOMO get the better of you, be aware that these corpos are not your friend, and take measures to secure the things you wish to have available to you! Host servers, seed torrents, and have backups.
