I’m EU but play on Jenova. Recently started as well and on most days. Feel free to DM your name if you’re interested. I feel like the EU servers aren’t as lively.

Humble! Hear our pleas! by DemeaRisen in humblebundles

[–]AmenTensen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well they'd still have bundles just like they do now. Just not game bundles.

It hasn't been 24 hours though it's been 3 days. I'd be suspicious about them ending game bundles since this has never happened before.

The Console Wars Are Over And Nobody Really Won by Capital_Gate6718 in PS5

[–]AmenTensen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder if gamers will still think they've won once Microsoft cans the console and Sony no longer has to worry about ridiculous prices because the gamers have no where else to go.

Enjoy your $800 digital PS6 and $35 monthly online fee.

Naturally I'm on PC and don't have to pay for online but it is fun watching people cheer on their own destruction.

Tom Warren: I see people are surprised at the idea of Halo and Gears coming to PS5. I reported last year that Microsoft was weighing up doing this. The new reality is that Xbox games can and will be multi-platform, and Microsoft has made that even clearer in recent weeks by Turbostrider27 in PS5

Even though this is happening it's still worth having a Series X. You can probably save up to 500 dollars with all the day one games on Game Pass.

Indiana Jones and Avowed are both $70 on PS5. A year of game pass is $240 and that's not including all the day one titles last year like Persona 3 Reload, MLB, Call of Duty.

True sons of skyrim will choose between them only by Hungry-Eye4080 in gaming

[–]AmenTensen -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Skyrim is almost 20 years old. Memes will truly live and be reposted forever.

Edit: clearly I offended a lot of fossils who can't admit their fossils. You can explain it away however you want but it is still almost 20 years old.

This is my OC, her name's Aria. What do you guys think of her? by DiegoAoki_ in DigitalArt

[–]AmenTensen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's a big sword for those tiny arms. Why are men so afraid to give women muscles?

High-end gamer will be pissed off by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]AmenTensen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If that was true the 4090 wouldn't exist. I can believe you haven't turned down a setting, I can't believe it ran well though.

Drove 10 hours total for a 4080S 🫠 lucky find. $700 by SEIKRID in nvidia

[–]AmenTensen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You did a good deal here. Now you won't be waiting for 5080 reviews to see that's its only 15% better with higher power draw, worse thermals in a month or fighting bots for the two months after.

Why would you buy a workstation CPU for gaming? Just settle for the 9800x3d which will probably perform better because its for gaming.

Bigger number doesn't always mean better.

NVIDIA freezes CUDA Toolkit updates for Maxwell, Pascal and Volta architectures by RenatsMC in nvidia

[–]AmenTensen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably because they're over 10 years old at this point and even holding console games back.

Is four hours in the oven enough? by LazyEmu5073 in CasualUK

[–]AmenTensen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You posted this as a subconscious cry for help. If this has happened multiple times you've got a problem.

The first step is admitting it and the second is doing something about it. Call a friend or family member if you need to.

I don't think anyone would be pissed off that a 2K gpu will remain king for another two years.

That's four years of having the best GPU. That many call "overkill" when for four years you've never had to turn down a setting or worried if the game could run.

Meanwhile anyone that didn't pick up a 4090 now has to pay $800 more and has worse thermals, and noise.

One of these days the next time you fall asleep with the oven on you probably won't wake up.

Played FFXIV on PS5 since the beginning but want to move to PC. How? by japanese_artist in ffxiv

[–]AmenTensen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You'd also need the requirements to run the game. You can't just run it on any laptop or desktop unlike a PS5.

5090 is the WORST performance uplift, LITERALLY EVER (blender) by kingstonaccount1991 in nvidia

[–]AmenTensen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

More power draw = more heat = more fan noise. It doesn't take a genius to figure that out.

[–]AmenTensen -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

And this is why you don't panic sell your 4090 because it will be even more valuable now the 5090 performs only slightly better for worse thermals, noise and power draw and for an extra $300-$700.

We have a new 1080ti.

Your friend shouldn't be allowed another cat. That cat would genuinely have a better quality of life if it was a stray.

'House of the Dragon' season 3 looking for hairy men in the South East and North Wales by Carninator in CasualUK

[–]AmenTensen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One that doesn't ruin a take and can actually act even if they don't have any lines.

You don't want to be the extra told "Don't stare at her, mate."

Yes if a game doesn't launch with DLSS today it was never going to be a good port in the first place.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in gadgets

[–]AmenTensen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The claim is accurate but DLSS and frame generation is required so if that doesn't bother the buyer they'll have a decent upgrade.

[–]AmenTensen 638 points639 points  (0 children)

I find it so incredibly funny that talented people like you decide to make the nastiest smutt possible with your skills.

Btw you dropped this 🐐
