I just stopped playing PvP games in general and I’m quickly giving up on co-op with randoms. All that shit is too toxic. FFXIV has been a bastion of good community vibes, and recently, to my surprise, Night Reign, but probably only because there isn’t voice chat.

Lol “finally”.

I walked out of that door, saw that smug face, and then he called me maidenless? Yeah, he was first against the wall.

I mean, if you want to emulate a corporate ethos, I don’t think Japan should be the benchmark, either…

Frame gen shouldn’t be a crutch, and by design it’s only supposed to enhance games that’s get above 60fps naturally. It doesn’t do anything good for the open world that constantly tanks to 45. It’s not a master race thing, it’s a poor optimization thing.

chemical_cutthroat,

It’s more of a progression from FFX than something like Persona or the newer FF games. It’s still turn based, but its more active. It feels like what Square should have done with the franchise, instead of going the direction they did.

The PC port is based on the mobile port, and at release it was trash. However, they have patched out all of the mobile garbage and it’s a lot better.

Don’t forget, there is a new steam deck refresh coming soon, so getting a new one will have even more benefits.

pcgamer.com/…/a-new-steam-deck-is-coming-with-one…

There were rumors yesterday about it after CES. It looks like Valve is denying it after AMD said there were new processors on the way for Steamdeck. I’m not 100% sold on the denial, I think it may have been some miscommunication on the timing of the news. Either way, that’s where I got it from, I just hadn’t seen the news today about them denying it yet.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, I don’t think it’s a full steamdeck 2, I think it would be more like the oled upgrade. Slightly better performance and battery life. I think valve is going to lean into the cellphone model of smaller upgrades every year, with an eventual phase out of old hardware after 5 years or so.

The vibe is fucking immaculate. Naughty Dog heading this up gives me faith. I just hope they do a good job with the PC port.

I hate when a PC game is ONLY available on Epic Games store (lemmy.world)

Nothing more disappointing to me than seeing a game I might enjoy… and then it’s only available on PC on Epic Games store. Why can’t it be available on Epic, Xbox game store and Steam? It’s so annoying, like you have no choice but to use Epic… which I would literally do ANYTHING not to use.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

They lose day 1 hype, tho. Sure, the game eventually comes to steam, but that’s after it’s already been overplayed on twitch and YouTube’d to death.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

It’s not “new”. There is no FOMO. Early adopters for games are a large chunk of sales.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Hell yeah! Commentary! Looks like I’m replaying it for the 100th time.

chemical_cutthroat,

Well it’s Unreal, so expect shader compilations and micro stutters, as well as a host of graphic options that may or may not make a visual difference, but will randomly tank your fps for no reason.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

I’ve had such mixed results with that. On one hand it works but it’s rarely a smooth experience. Too many 2d elements blended into 3d and suddenly I’m standing half way through a menu with no way to select anything and a cutscene is running 6 miles away clipped through 17 levels of assets.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Shit. Pick a character from Chrono Trigger. Citan from XenoGears. Teepo from Breath of Fire 3. I mean, I could go on and on… There are so many classic companions in games. I can’t pick one, and I’m not sure I trust anyone who can, especially when there is bioware money being thrown around.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

I went so hard on this game when early access first released that I had to uninstall it and force myself to wait until the full release so I don’t burn myself out. It’s so much goddamned fun, though.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Who the fuck downvoted you?

It didn’t tank this morning. It’s been going downhill for exactly a month.

Day 45 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (lemmy.world)

The game is Final Fantasy XIV. I had a friend wanting me to give it a try, and he bought the standard edition. So my hand was kind of forced. Here’s a screenshot i took of the city i started in, Limsa Lominsa, after it started raining. You can see the tail of my Carbuncle there peaking over the top.

I was dating a girl that sold me on 1.0, and I was going to play it with her. We broke up, and 1.0 released, and I just said fuck it. It wasn’t until Heavensward that I came back. It kills me that in that time I lost my original key, so I don’t even have my swanky 1.0 survivor rewards.

I’m so glad I came back, though. It’s been my only MMO since then, and it just gets better with every new release.

Thank fucking Christ it’s not epic exclusive.

I think you are right, but the N64 controls used the C buttons as analog inputs for camera movement.

I got anxiety just reading your post. Ugh.

I wish they were a bit more open with the percentages. I have +11 or +12 now, and I don’t know if that means I’ll see any increase, or not.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking would happen. I’ll find out when I get home from work and have a chance to test it. Luckily I was farming armor and testing amulets last night, so I have a baseline damage number on an enemy already for what I was before.

chemical_cutthroat, (edited )
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Yeah. I grabbed all of them now and I’m at the grace before the final boss. Just snagged the last of the armors and weapons I’d missed and killed the furnace golems last night. I think I’m just about 100% on it now. Gonna wipe up the boss tonight and put it aside while I get back to real life for a bit.

Edit: I said “wipe up the boss.” That was a mistake, and I understand that now. I apologize for my hubris.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

Microsoft and Epic asked for it. That’s why it’s here. Some lawyer is getting rich off of this, and I bet they are in bed with either of those two.

It looks like particle board with a veneer. Probably a cheap remodel job that got a larger piece than they needed and didn’t have the chops to cut it down themselves, so they just said fuck it and had 2 foot of overhang with no support.

Goddamnit I’m loving this third era of DOOM.

Play the OG games if you want. There are a lot of mods that make it more tolerable by modern standards. If you haven’t played Eternal yet, though, you definitely should if you enjoyed 2016.

The guy has been with EA less than ten years. We’ve all known EA is a garbage company for 20 or more years. If you lay down with dogs…

I really hope this is well optimized.

chemical_cutthroat,
@chemical_cutthroat@lemmy.world avatar

I just want a release date. That’s all. I’m already hyped enough.

Don’t forget the mess of The Last of Us, which as far as I know still runs like shit.

Big “no one understands my art” vibes coming off that dev. You made a mediocre game for an outrageous amount and released it in one of the heaviest gaming release years in recent memory. Sorry, this year a new IP with a 74% on metacritic doesn’t cut it. They say EA dropped 40mil on the advertising for it, but this is litterally the first I’ve heard about it, and frankly I’m the target audience for this game. I bet this shit was shoved down the throats of Fortnight and Valorant players via tiktok.

chemical_cutthroat,

I miss when dumpster fires used to burn out after a day or so. Devs need to learn when to shut the fuck up and walk away. Fleece some more rubes in another 5 years or so.

Everyone here is missing the point that the video has more likes than views, by a few orders of magnitude…
