What in the hell equivalent on modern system requirements would a 1660 Super be? The thing is still getting me good performance in most things, even new things, but the requirement lists have all moved on to RTX models for nVidia’s side of things. I can guess from this I might still get 60fps at 1080p on Medium settings; but maybe not if that all depends on DLSS being employed which my card doesn’t have.

I think this has to be in the contention for most overrated game of all time.

Before you grab your pitchfork, I’m not saying it’s a bad game. It’s fine. The combat is solid, the boss fights are fun and it’s very pretty. Was very well optimised too, ran like a dream on an old, fat first gen PS4.

It’s not the greatest game of all time though, or anything close to it. The open world is your garden variety UbiSoft style, the tone and the writing is all in a stoic monotone with only crumbs of Kenji to break it up, and the quest design is uninspiring at best and awful at worst. On top of it all the game is way too long considering those flaws.

I know it’s been hyped up, but I still recommend waiting for a sale.

Doesn’t the Steam overlay already do this?

It does, but Sony didn’t go through the crash and burn phase on PC yet so they need to add their own fancy overlay before killing it in a few years.

dlpkl,

If you read the article you’d know that it’s for cross platform progress of trophies and it also includes your PlayStation friends. Neither of which Steam does

essteeyou,

You can’t see your achievements for a Steam game in the overlay? I rarely ever use it, but that seems like something that must be there. Are we talking about the Shift+Tab overlay, or something else?

VaultBoyNewVegas,

Playstation trophies and steam achievements are two different platforms. Why would playstation trophies be tied to your steam account?

dlpkl,

PlayStation trophies and PlayStation friends.

essteeyou,

Oh, well yeah, of course. I can’t see my Xbox Achievements on PlayStation, etc.

Kolanaki,

It sounds like you can access your actual PS network friends and earn PS trophies. I hope that is in addition to achievements on Steam itself and not a replacement. I would imagine many people getting the PC version don’t have a PlayStation in the first place.

I’m envious of anyone getting to play this for the first time. This game was amazing.

voracitude,

I’ll accept your jealousy with grace and aplomb, because I’ve wanted to play this since release but haven’t owned a PlayStation since the PS2.

If someone was playing the first Dark Souls for the first time and wanted advice, I’d say something like

To time your parry, watch the enemy’s hand when they swing to attack; when their hand starts to come down, parry

Can I ask for any tips like that you might care to impart? 😊

teft,
@teft@lemmy.world avatar

I can’t think of any tactical tips off the top of my head since its been years since I played but one thing i remember is to always explore. The side quests give gear and fighting techniques that make your journey much, much easier.

voracitude,

Thanks! And: Oh good. I’m the kind of person to scour a map like a swarm of locusts; sounds like this might be a long one for me.

Sylvartas,

Then my advice would be to also advance the story. I did my usual thing of exploring and mostly clearing areas before advancing the story and as a result I got a bit bored in the late game, because as you progress, the portions of the map locked behind story progression get smaller and smaller.

ieatpwns,

That souls tip helps too but watch their feet instead of their hands

Cold_Brew_Enema,

The game was great. Definitely not perfect, as a lot of the open world stuff was samey, but the combat was so good I almost didn’t give a shit.

RobMyBot,

I’ve waited all this time for it to release on PC. Looking forward to it!

Do we really need overlays like this? I’d be fine with just playing the game.

Zahille7,

I don’t know how many different overlays I could have. Like at least 3 or 4. But I couldn’t tell you how to activate most of them besides Steam and Nvidia.

Now all they need are some games to use this feature on

Yahoo! Answers might be dead, but it’s spirit still lives on…

“How do game?”

“Smash X repeatedly untill end credits.”

@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

That looks like an interesting idea. Game Help doesn’t gets much usage, and this can change that.

Spuddlesv2,

If good quality game help doesn’t get used much why on earth would low quality game help jammed full of “funny” advice and memes be better?

slimerancher,
@slimerancher@lemmy.world avatar

I think the issue is there wasn’t as much help available.

Also, according to the post, your mic or anything won’t be recorded, just the raw game footage, though it will have any notifications that may popup, like chat message or trophy. Not to mention, the video will be reviewed by moderators before being added to Game Help.

Yikes, the comments section on that blog is cancer. People really need to wake up to the fact that games being multi-platform is ALWAYS good for end users. I don’t know why people insist on identifying with just one side.

Patches, (edited ) do games w Horizon Forbidden West Complete Edition PC specifications revealed, out March 21

Reminder Horizon Zero Dawn was a buggy mess that crashed on startup and took months to attain playable. They did put in the work after the fact which is admirable but the point still stands:

Don’t be too optimistic about a pre-order.

sploosh,

Honestly folks should just never pre-order. In the era of digital goods there’s no selling out the whole stock so there’s no rush to get in front of.

Patches, (edited )

I will preorder the next From Software and that’s about it. They have never failed to deliver a quality product and I have purchased every one of their games since Armored Core 1 in 1997.

Everyone else - nah.

There is something to be said for the experience of many people playing through a game for the first time and shared experiences. The fact that the answers to your question don’t exist anywhere. You can’t Google the solution to a puzzle, or the cheese to this boss.

echo64,

A whole bunch of quests in elden ring were 100% broken for weeks after release. And there was performance problems. Let’s not pretend that their shit doesn’t stink the same as everyone else’s.

TheSambassador,

I pre order from small studios that have a proven track record. Even if it ends up bad, I’m happy to have supported the studio.

Pre ordering AAA games is always a dumb idea though.

This game is ported by Nixxes so I’m cautiously optimistic that it will be a good port.

They fixed up Zero Dawn after release and aced pretty much every port since then.

Does Sony still block save transfers from PS5 to PC?

I really hope this is well optimized.

Deconceptualist, (edited )

The listing of specs for each preset plus the mention of “portable devices” are good signs for that. So we’ll see!

Addendum: Same for Ghost of Tsushima!

NFS is pretty good.

Multiplayer sucks, but the single player is good. You can erase your save data to start a new one, it’s weird there’s no “new game” option to make it simpler tho.

I got it cheap on sale and have run thru the solo missions 2-4 times.

It’s pretty shallow, so there’s not much to do after the missions.

I actually had a really good time with Unbound, single and multiplayer. Just… mute the soundtrack and play your own music
