JohnnyCanuck, w Starfield Updates 1.7.36 – October 09, 2023
@JohnnyCanuck@lemmy.ca avatar

The main setting I want is to be able to play at 1080p full screen. My laptop is 4K but can’t handle starfield at that resolution. It was running at 10fps rendering at 50% and upscaling, and looked like dog shit. I had to change windows to 1920x1080 (instead of the native 4K) to run the game at a 30fps - and at medium everything. Who makes a game where you can’t change the full screen resolution?

I have to throttle the fuck out of my laptop cpu and gpu to keep it from blowing itself up. This is a more effective heat and stress test than fucking prime95. I’d rather get shitty framerates at 1080p than have to buy a new laptop 6 months from now when my laptop dies from overheating like the last 2 ones I owned probably did. For fuck sake why couldn’t they have done a better job optimizing.

I’ve heard absolutely nothing about this and I’m not sure how I feel about that.

On the one hand maybe the reviews are going to blow me away and it becomes a day one buy… on the other I’m getting a little worried that it’s being sent out to die.

Callisto Protocol is one of the free October PSPlus games.

One would think they’d get some cash out of that (???)

MomoTimeToDie,

Odds are whatever cash they got from Sony came in a while back

2 -3 weeks ago the CEO of Striking Distance Studios (The Callisto Protocol) announced he was leaving because the game didn’t do well enough.

Honestly, it’s a game I’d probably play eventually but I have enough of a backlog to be more of a patient gamer.

LucidNightmare, w Diablo 4 dev on winning players back with Season 2: "It feels like it's enough of a motivating factor for people to come back and play"

“Ah, yes. I am developer of game, and I promise it’s fun to play! You’ll have so much fun! Please play our game, my paycheck depends on it!”

Sharpiemarker, w Alien Hominid Invasion: Official Release Date Trailer

What is this Castle-Crashers-style art?

Unimps,

Same dev and they’re both based on old newgrounds flash animations/games.

Sharpiemarker,

Ahhhh, that makes more sense. I wondered why it was so familiar.

Kolgeirr, w New look for PS5 console this holiday season

When I bought my PS5 a few months ago I considered waiting for a PS5 Slim in the hopes that it would be less fuckin ugly. Glad I didn’t wait, because they managed to make it worse by basically slapping the disc drive to the side.

Molecular0079,

Yeah, seriously. The addon drive looks uglier than the Hunchback of Notre Dame.

Fizz, w RuneScape ends Hero Pass following pay-to-win criticisms
@Fizz@lemmy.nz avatar

The worst thing about jagex is their management. They are so out of touch and only see runescape as something to squeeze money from. They should be happy they have generated as much revenue as they have from such an old game. Last I checked it was pulling in hundreds of millions in profit.

mindbleach,

From a game that looks like the Atari Jaguar got a modem.

Oh right, and the other one, which looks like the most anticipated MMO of 2009.

mindbleach, w [MinnMax] CEO Wade Rosen On Atari’s Future, Acquiring Nightdive, Avoiding Layoffs

Acquiring Nightdive

Wait, what? Godddammit.

Welp, they had a good run.

prograhammingdev, w New look for PS5 console this holiday season

Oof, that one with the blu ray drive looks far worse now.

ivanafterall, w New look for PS5 console this holiday season

They really mixed it up.

kaitco,

The new PS5 has been reduced in volume by more than 30%, and weight by 18% and 24% compared to the previous models. There are four separate cover panels, with the top portion in a glossy look, while the bottom remains in matte.

Hm…I mean, I’m not sure I’d call it a “new look”, but I suppose there are some changes.

ChaoticEntropy, w AMD responds to public demand: Radeon RX 6000 owners can now enjoy Fluid Motion Frames too
@ChaoticEntropy@feddit.uk avatar

On the one hand, happy to get the opportunity… on the other hand, this kind of just increases the testing overhead needed to finalise the preview version and ship the final version to more devices. Win some, lose some.

tha_frontline, w CD Projekt Red devs unionise after its third round of layoffs in three months

I don’t know how unions work in Poland, but here in Germany you should organize, when there are lay offs in your company.

Unions can bargain better conditions for the lay offs like higher gratuities (is there something like this on the states?) or create a point system, who gets laid off first (based on family status, age, the likelihood of finding another job…).

So: unions always make sense :)

sadreality,

Theoretically yes but union power has been eroded to the point where most wage slaves think they don't need a union yo bargain, we are all family here 🤡

shifty51,

If I work hard and enrich the company, they will surely share their success with me /s

aSingularFemboyHooter,

Man am I tired of being shafted for not having kids, the when it comes to holidays, covering for other staff and things, employees with kids always take priority and employees without don’t have an ‘excuse’. Extending that to layoffs is extremely toxic and punitive to younger workers.

tha_frontline,

I don’t have kids either, but to me it’s logical, that that this has to be taken to account. I mean, those are people who are dependent on the situation, it’s not like they could do anything on their own. I’m happy, that at least this is something, where humanity comes into play. And again: I don’t have children and I don’t want them in the future.

And like I said, there are also other points, like age, or how long the people are working for the company.

What would be your points, to decide if someone has to be fired? And no, firing no one at all is not an option in this scenario ;)

restingboredface,

(based on family status)

I’m all for unions, but identifying layoff targets based on these things seems like a sure way for the system to get abused. Single people and people without kids get stuck filling in for people with families already-taking layoffs for them is asking a lot.

Definitely agree on the spirit of your comment though- unionizing is pretty much always a good idea.

EdanGrey,

I feel like this would be considered descrimination

@kadu@lemmy.world avatar

I’m so happy they’re moving away from the “New Super Mario” formula.

Too bad they’re still going nuts on “everything is made out of plastic” look for the 2D games, but everything else is looking to be a major return to the World formula and that’s great

Minnels,

I like mario games but the “new super mario” games are just boring for me so I have high hopes of Wonder.
