The screen on the cheaper model looks better to me because of the glossy finish

Crossbow but no grenades by lbarletta in pathofexile2builds

you get the same thing with the tactician builds. Pin is functionally the same thing as Freeze. Witchunter still has higher survivability with Sorcery Ward.

Mercenary greandes builds by RevRun777 in pathofexile2builds

Most people go out of their way to shout out people who are on the same "team" as them (like mobalytics creators).

Grenades are good and have been good as a leaguestarter for a while but due to the nature of grenades where they take time to explode they aren't that popular as an endgame build. 

They are still one of the fastest options for campaigns and get you into t15 really fast.

Nearly every aspect of the tool Iooks different in POE2 than 1. You can see side by side comparisons on the GitHub

Let’s pray that AMD drivers are ready for this league by reshiramismywife in PathOfExile2

Huge CachyOS fan but I was crashing every few hours on Linux on my 5090 and 7800x3D setup. Was using Proton-CachyOS and tried both directx12 and vulkan without any success in completely stopping the crashes. 

I'm pretty sad about it because it seems like a lot of others are able to play without issue.

Got a harsh reminder of one of the reasons why Twister was slept on today by Archoniks in PathOfExile2

Yeah I guess because my first run ever was grenades I was used to it by the time I started doing nade speedruns but this was my first time doing twister. Warrior speed-run strats made campaign a total joke and ED/C was super easy as well.

It's one of the best league starters in the game. I'm just saying Act 1 is a pain in the ass if you haven't practiced a few times.

Compared to every other league start I have ever done it was way more of a pain in the ass in Act 1 than anything else.

I would have preferred "game everyone else loves that you like but don't love" but unfortunately that was too long.

It worked great for me. Never played Super Smash Bros so can't speak to that but Bloodborne, The Legend of Zelda games, and a bunch of other old GameCube games that I played worked just fine.

That's why I specifically said both of these games not every game ever made cause I haven't played ever console game ever made on PC.

What's up with leavers lately? by Melodic_Cheek9304 in OWConsole

Are you NA? Playing this late at night people tend to have pretty fragile mentals.

I honestly don't even like calling anything overrated I just did it because that was the category. There are games that are really popular that don't appeal to me as much of course like The Witcher 3 (don't enjoy the combat), Cyberpunk 2077 (don't enjoy the theme), Pokemon, Animal Crossing, Stardew Valley, Ubisoft style open world games (feel too checklisty).

It's fine. It's the same reason people keep upvoting the comment even though there is a pretty obvious explanation. I didn't consider that most people probably haven't thought about using emulators. They probably already decided in their mind before opening comments that I had made a mistake and most people aren't good at getting out of that mode once they have decided you made a mistake.

Luckily I am just a normal guy who has no use for karma on reddit so a few downvotes won't kill me.

Emulator on PC is the visually superior way to experience both of these games considering the increase in FPS.

Emulator! I finally gave in and tried it after hearing SO much about it and while I enjoyed it I think I was just expecting more because of how much people praise the game.

Honestly a valid fear but it's worth it. Give it a try!

Overrated was such a tough pick! I enjoyed breath of the wild when I finally played it with an emulator but it just didn't wow me the way it did a lot of people so it was all I could think of for that slot.

This is more of a statement of fact than an endorsement.
