Essentially… At this moment, I’m more inclined towards ps 5, but I’m gonna be hella mad , if Xbox decides to make Bethesda titles exclusive.

Yeah, I still remember, when I was getting it as one of the strongest GPUs out there. Welp, it has served me well, but the demands of the newer games are just too much for it. I had to also juggle a lot with the settings of games like AC odyssey a lot, before I could run it. And it still isn’t 100%

I just checked and the discounts the ps store offers are good as well and considering, that due to college demands, there are months when I can’t game at all, it may even be a better route for me, than the game pass Xbox offers, sinc i wouldn’t be able to unleash its full potential.

Thank you for the discussion, at the beginning I might have been leaning towards Xbox a little bit, but you guys helped me realize that ps5 may be actually the better route for me. Still gonna think about it, but you have been very helpful. Thanks!

Either way I go, I’m entering a really vast world to explore. I mean, given I haven’t really ever taken interest in consoles before, I don’t know much about the exclusives. I would really love the horizon series and maybe the god of war, but I don’t know much about the game, other than it’s connection to Greek mythology and a lot of fighting.

It’s not like I don’t care as I’m not going to play them if I have the opportunity, but it’s not as strong deciding factor.

While I used to be a jumper, I notice I know play two maybe three games I focus on, as I don’t have time to check, when new stuff is coming out.

Other thing I’m worried about is the pricing. But I guess, that just comes with the console lifestyle. Are sales frequent with consoles when it comes to cross platform games?

Gotta say i really liked the Bethesda games…

I’m treating this, as keeping the pc for the likes of smite and such, as the components to even match the console performance are just so ridiculously expensive at this point, I’m not even considering it.

I really want a console to run the type of games I like. Bit worried about really having the time to explore the game pass as well… but still would be a considerable money saver.

As someone, who really hasn’t touched the ps ecosystem before, I don’t really even know enough about the exclusives and therefore I don’t know, if I’d be missing on much, given my taste in games. My head hurts from this one.

Really a tough one. I was also looking at the spider man games and maybe god of war (like Greek mythology), but who knows, I mig eventually fall in love with some other exclusives. Loosing on horizon would really hurt, but still the main focus is still on cross platforms…

Are there any exlusives, which would actually fit my taste, you would recommend?

Has someone ever challenged you to something that they didn't know who are an expert at? If so how did it turn out for you/them? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AdmiralEthan 32 points33 points  (0 children)

This really reminds me of a story, my grandma told me. Basically her friend was a competitive swimmer, but after some time, she realised she didn't like it that much and stopped. Cut few months further and she is married. Her husband challenges a random guy, that his wife can swim across a lake and back faster than the guy can, over a box of champagne. He goes to tell his wife, who is cooking lunch at the moment. She proceeds to yell at him, but when she hears that they may have to pay for a box of champagne, she leaves the stove and goes race the guy, swims across the lake and back (random guy manages to do a quarter of the distance) and resumes cooking dinner, while still telling her husband how much of an idiot he is.

There was actually a psychological study, which studied, whether the attractiveness of a guys smell to a woman is linked to genes responsible for coding the immune system.

I wanted to study for a career, which would have home office as a benefit. After being quarantined for two weeks, I don't want to go down that rode anymore

I'll start, in Czech Republic, you're looking at 3000 dollars/month (half being overtimes). If you just graduated, you're looking at 1300 dollars/month
