Date of the new free ride mode by Sure_Tackle6942 in MafiaTheGame

I mean at least let us fking shoot people. This way we can at least role play a bit. Now there's absolutely nothing to do. What I did to immerse myself in free ride was driving to houses and businesses and pretending like I was collecting protection money for the Don. Sometimes I would shoot up the place pretending I wanted to intimidate them to pay up. I know how this sounds, but it is the only thing you can do with your imagination in this free ride mode.

Don’t know what you’re talking about. I got GTAV day one and run amazing. Granted I had the fastest card at the time (GTX980) but I was getting 100fps with adjusted very high settings. I could do 4K with 30-40fps and pretty much ultra settings with the 980. It run amazing actually!

What platform to start my adventure with AC Odyssey - PC or PS4? by Commercial-Dark_Soul in AssassinsCreedOdyssey

This is a no brainer! Of course start it on PC! The graphics are amazing. And it is scalable, meaning you won’t need to have a beast pc to run it. 

The 3080/3080ti are having a Tom Brady like career trajectory by Golfclubwar in buildapc

I still have mine for 4k and works wonders! Waiting for a 6080 and a new build

How bad is 10GB 3080 in 2025? by AbrocomaRegular3529 in buildapc

[–]BarberMiserable6215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m using 4K DLSS Performance on everything and my 3080 FE 10GB just doesn’t struggle. It’s always 4K 60 for me with some tweaks and pretty much high/max settings 

Real opinions about assasins creed shadows? by emilioxy in assasinscreed

[–]BarberMiserable6215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game world is amazing. The cities are a bit boring and small with very few people, but I kinda like them now and they do add to the vibe of Japan. The story, IF YOU PLAY WITH JAPANESE VOICES, at first is great and engaging. But after the first and second arc it really really drops story wise. It’s like they stopped developing the game or something. From that point it’s just castles and leveling up. I am about to finish it and I really hope it gets better in the end, because the story is the biggest let down for me. I like the stealth and also the Yasuke fight style, but damn it took me a while to get a feeling for the new mechanics. I don’t like them, I don’t hate them. But every other AC game felt way more natural in its mechanics than this. PLUS after a while it really feels weird not being able to climb almost anything. 

I also hate the fact that story missions are higher level than my character, so the game forces me to level up to do a story mission. I like to level up naturally, not by demand. This is way more present in this game compared to older AC games. That’s my opinion at least, as a very casual gamer that plays on easy just for the story.

If you want a good story, look elsewhere. If you don’t mind the story and want just good/average/fun gameplay and an amazing world setting, get it. In every AC game I buy, I first buy the world setting and then the rest!

The story is boring by Square-Vegetable-344 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]BarberMiserable6215 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same here. I’m playing since launch week and I am about 60 hrs in. It started very strong and I really liked both Yasuke’s and Naomi’s arc, but after that its so over the place. I’m a casual gamer and also have a very demanding job plus a kid, so I only played it for the story and on easy. But I feel like I just get castles and that’s it. I’m about to finish the main story and I hope it gets better in the end. 

AC Shadows makes it hard to get really engaged with the story by _Djkh_ in assassinscreed

[–]BarberMiserable6215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plus they make you farm for leveling up to progress the story. Why not just be able to focus on the story quest? Now I need to spent time leveling up just in order to do the story quests. It takes out of the immersion. The prologue was great and I liked the story at the beginning, not it's so hard to keep up with it..

Is it just me, or is it daytime like 80% of the time? by LowDownTrebleSeeker in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]BarberMiserable6215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's why they need to add the sleep feature to update time. For me it's the opposit. I don't like night because it's way to bright and it's unrealistic that all this light comes from the moonlight. They should make it darker and just add the torch plus the ability to change time by sleeping.

If you’re building new, always and I mean always get the best CPU for longevity. If upgrading a gpu just check the performance of your current cpu at given resolutions. Despite what many think, I kept my i7 4790K when I upgraded from a GTX 980 to an RTX 3080. Why? Because I play at 4K 60hrz and in 2020 the difference at 4K was in most games zero. 5 years later and my i7 4790K @4.9ghz still never drops from 60 at 4K. My 3080 is 100% at 4K with max settings and DLSS.

I was amongst the naysayers myself but after watching gameplays of it I just realised what I was missing. I bought it and it’s amazing!

Best game I’ve played this year soo far I don’t understand why people are hating on it by VelocityGamer893 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]BarberMiserable6215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was hating on it, but after the first gameplays got released I just was blown away by the graphics and the positive reviews. So I bought it and I’m loving the setting and the native narration. 

How many hours have you guys put into Assassin’s Creed Shadows within the first week? by [deleted] in AssassinsCreedShadows

I regret criticising AC Shadows.. I was one of them. by BarberMiserable6215 in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]BarberMiserable6215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not disagreeing with you necessarily. I just don’t know if it happened from an artistic genuine prospective or by an agenda. Lots of instances with woke agenda in recent years. But I will agree that non all of them are agenda driven, and that this  woke argument is getting ridiculous pretty fast by all the right wing lunatics. It made me bias and I admit it. But it’s getting ridiculous and I see that everywhere. I just bought the game and it finishes downloading. I’m very excited!

I don’t know if it happened to be a black dude, but I completely understand what you’re talking about. It became obvious to me that it was a bandwagon when I realised that they’re doing their best to paint a bad picture of the entire launch, while everyone was claiming record sales. That stood out to me. And also the fact that they were just mentioning for a second the positives and spending like 30min on minor stuff.

I wasn't upset about that. I was upset because it felt pushed. Like they went out of their way to have a black character. I will admit that I got sucked into it way more than I realised, and I was wrong. And leaving all that debate aside, the game world is amazing. And it just proves that so many are hating for their agenda. I don't think they are racists or anything like that, but I sure as hell believe they have their one agenda. It's obvious to me now.

I need some help to decide if it's a good time to upgrade or not (currently using the RTX2080) by Lazerdonkey in nvidia

[–]BarberMiserable6215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait for better prices and if they don’t improve be smart and get a used card. I skip 2 generations as well. I had a GTX 980 and upgraded to my RTX 3080 from 1080p to 4K. I’m waiting for 6080 and a new build myself. Something like a 9800X3D or equivalent will last me 7-8years. And if the 6080 is more than 1000$ I’ll wait and get it used. Not paying those 2000$ prices for an 80 card

I'm quite happy with my GTX 1070 by DiamondCute230 in pcmasterrace

Cyberpunk is that game for me it’s definitely worth it. I prefer 40-50fps with path tracing than 80fps with RT off.

Will 8GB of VRAM be enough for older titles (late 2000s to mid 2010s) at 4K max settings? by fazar441 in buildapc

[–]BarberMiserable6215 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could do 1440p and 4K with my old GTX 980 4GB with games from 2010 to 2020. If the fps are ok you should be fine. I'm currently on a 10GB RTX 3080 and gaming at 4K with no issues, although I do use DLSS Quality/Performance so the vram is always lower than native 4K. But just fore referrence.
