EA finally realized that re-releasing DLC non stop was not gonna generate new sales.

If we talk Action JRPGs then i guess it’s Drakengard.

Protagonist power not enough? Then i summon my legendary dragon and end my turn!

(Wait no, that last thing is not entirely true.)

We need less woke and more Drakengard!

They are cool. 👍

And i don’t mind making a one time pay to get rid of ads and supporting the developers. 😃💵

But i really hate pay-to-win games with a passion. 🔥

Do you really need to record your gameplay at 90FPS?

Why not just 60?

Granixo, rok temu

Probably the best era of Sonic (only missing Unleashed) and i’ll die defending it. 🔥

Granixo, rok temu

Never played Baldur’s Gate 😅

But i will give it a listen and maybe include it on a second playlist 😎💿🎵

I gave “Down by the River” a listen and i really liked it! 😁

So much indeed that i included it on a new list:

Steam release when?

Granixo, rok temu

The franchise died alongside Desmond (AC3).

Granixo, rok temu (edited rok temu)

Sure, because it did wonders for Fox and Marvel.

(And casually ruined Marvel vs Capcom Infinite).

Granixo, rok temu (edited rok temu)

Good, Ubisoft lost the way since *Revelations.

*I do think AC3 is awesome, aside from the ending of course.

Ha! Got’em!

No.

Next Question.

Thanks!

Just let this franchise die please.

Granixo, rok temu

Please do it.

Ninendo is better at anyone’s hands but Nintendo’s.

Granixo, rok temu

At least it would be TRYING to have more reach to consumers.

Nintendo’s strategy of only appealing to kids and only sometimes caring about it’s actual, much larger fanbase isn’t really economically estrategic if you think about it.

Granixo, rok temu

Because they sell their products at overpriced numbers and their current console is built on 8 year old hardware that even it’s chip makers said it was “outdated” back in 2015.

Granixo, rok temu

I don’t have a dissdain for less powerful hardware, i have a disdain for mediocre hardware.

For me, the peak on 3D graphics was achieved on PS3, X360 and the Wii U.

Nintendo simply wanted easy cash and went on with (literally) inferior hardware to make the Switch.

And my main problem with Nintendo is that they refuse to allow easy access to some of their best games.

Why can’t they do a proper remake/remaster of Majora’s Mask for the current generation?

Why do they refuse to release Mother 3 outside of Japan?

When are we gonna get a new StarFox or F-Zero game?

I think it is clear WHY i have a problem with Nintendo.

Granixo, rok temu (edited rok temu)

I can absolutely confirm Nokia.

I do know lots of people who do still use Skype though, and about Minecraft, you just need to go to Youtube to see that it’s still pretty active.

Granixo, rok temu

I personally run on a GTX 750 Ti and a Core 2 Duo myself. 🧐

But i’ll admit that i’m a maniac who uses a dedicated sound card 🎵 and a gold rated 550W power supply for max performance.

Granixo, rok temu (edited rok temu)

Charging Playstation: They have been quite naughty ever since they released the PS4 (and not in the good way), so a few millions in cash is kinda like karma to them.

Charging Xbox: Game Pass, Backwards Compatibility, Series S, allowing you to legally install emulators in their consoles… If there’s a gaming giant that’s pro-consumer, it’s them (second only to Steam, obviously), they don’t deserve it.

Charging Nintendo: TAKE IT ALL

Granixo, rok temu

Oh not Microsoft as a whole oooohhh no.

But their Xbox division is pretty cool 😎👍

So they finally realized “Gaming Headphones” are just headphones, great. 👍

Can we have sound cards again, now please?

Granixo, rok temu

I personally love my X-Fi XtremeGamer and i’m not changing it for anything less than a AE-5 Plus.

Granixo, rok temu

Why wouldn’t i have a monitor by default? 🤨

Also, the main reason i have a sound card for is extra performance, and so far the experience has been flawless for me, no BSOD nor similar. 👍

Granixo, rok temu (edited rok temu)

Well, back when sound cards were a thing most people didin’t have a subwoofer (nor do they now being honest).

Granixo, rok temu

Benchmarks on my PC say otherwise (and i use Windows 10).

Granixo, rok temu (edited rok temu)

I reccomend you watch the following video:

youtu.be/aFy9jZzDSnY?si=2RA9NI0BOT6PFYn8

But basically, just as it has been since the dawn of PC Gaming, it’s a case by case scenario.

However!

If you are dealing with intensive, single thread tasks (AKA Emulating PS2 and higher, or video rendering), you should get a noticeble increase on performance due to the CPU being relegated of audio-related tasks.

And finally, 99.9% of PC users don’t need an output higher than 48Khz, 16-Bit. So if you aren’t the exception, put your settings around those numbers to enjoy a bit of extra performance.

Granixo, rok temu (edited rok temu)

Yeah, when Vista came out it basically killed off sound cards as a mainstream product, both because of the new way the system interacted with the sound card and because of the big increase on CPU (and even GPU) requirements.

But once Windows 8 came out in 2012, x64 finally became standard, and seems sound card manufacturers wanted to give one last hurrah by optimizing their drivers for Windows 8 (which makes them compatible with Win 10 & 11 almost by default).

Now, the sound industry is still pretty much dead to anyone who isn’t an audiophile. But i’m happy to say that they are still products that can enhance your audio, production and gaming experience if you know how to use them. :)

Granixo, rok temu (edited rok temu)

No prob, i’m glad to be helpful. 🙂✌️

Now, i don’t know of any sound card that uses USB as an output, so yeah, SPDIF would be your only option.

And yes, all X-Fi cards have Windows 8/10 official compatible drivers. They were the *top-tier sound solutions of their time after all. 🏆🎵

*Except the X-Fi XtremeAudio, that thing is just a re-branded Audigy SE.

Counter Strike 1.6 undeniably the best mod ever (for those who don’t know started as a Half-Life mod).

Now if you don’t have any friends to play with i would suggest CS: Condition Zero (Deleted Scenes)

It’s basically a single player campaign that, while it’s pretty rough on the edges, it still serves as a fun, single player diversion.

Disclaimer: if you get stuck on a mission just watch a Youtube walkthrough.
