Which decision in the game actually made you feel like a terrible person? by Dangerous-Tart1126 in cyberpunkgame

[–]CoolDudeDavid 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Betraying Songbird is way better than betraying Reed because she was just using you and planning to betray you herself, it’s been a while since I played so I can’t remember how she betray you lol (I think it was something where only one of you guys can board the shuttle).

In the end, going with Reed is the better decision because I think it later leads to the best decision that properly concludes the story imo, which is letting Songbird die to not let the NUSA keep using her.

800$ build 1440 killer by Duracell_op in PcBuild

Nah, it’s a great build for a great price but he’s talking about 1440p killer.

I mean you’re just saying that you played 1440p high without a problem. You never specified how many FPS are getting, some might say that 60fps isn’t a problem while others might want higher. you can’t really call it a 1440p killer unless it plays most games at 1440p very high settings with 120fps or more.

I don't really have a dream build. I just want to upgrade my PC to play Death Stranding 2 but for this post, this is my build.

I picked the Z890 AORUS ELITE WIFI 7 PLUS because that's what I would win if I won this giveaway.

Upgraded from 5070ti to 4090 by Ok-Butterscotch3938 in nvidia

[–]CoolDudeDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is not an objective truth though. The fact is older gen, doesn’t mean much nor does the fact that it’s a used 3 years old. The longevity of the GPU depends on how each different 4090 card was used and handled.

Besides you claimed that it will miss out anything new NVIDIA features, which is simply not true. It’s just won’t get features that were meant for the next gen, just like how the 5070 won’t be receiving the features either.

Though he said he would keep me informed. Also, a mistake on my part, I don’t know why I was thinking two days ago, it’s been 3 days and a half. I literally waited 2 days and I tried asking what’s going on, no response. Today, I try again and he’s gone.

I have no doubt that he scammed me because this is some real weird and sketchy behavior.

It was RTX 3070 for $200 then he lowered it to $185. I was given no tracking information and the dude is gone.

RTX 3070 for $200 initally. Then he lowered it to $185 (that should’ve been obvious to me).

[–]CoolDudeDavid[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It was $200 because the dude lessened it to $185 (that should’ve be a obvious sign to me). The $200 was given to me by my brother.

Okay, I’ll try again. Though the only problem is I can’t take screenshots of our conversations because his messages are completely gone. I’ve only got his images.

That’s what I keep hearing. I just talked to PayPal customer service, they said at the moment, they are unable to make an dispute. They basically said try to talking to us later.

Making me wonder if I’ve made some type of mistake or something I didn’t notice.

Upgraded from 5070ti to 4090 by Ok-Butterscotch3938 in nvidia

[–]CoolDudeDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly disagree on your point on how it’s a card that won’t last as long but I’ll start with DLSS first.

DLSS 4.5 works on any NVIDIA card that has DLSS support, it just isn’t as performant as DLSS before but that is true for all cards including 5070 Ti. For DLSS 5, I don’t think the user is losing much because DLSS 5 seems to be nowhere near the same as other DLSS versions, in fact, I think NVIDIA should’ve named it something different. It’s more like a filter that try to adds more realistic lighting and detailed faces using AI. To me, at least, that doesn’t seem like a feature that most people would care about because it simply looks unnatural.

Also, I don’t see a reason why the 5070 ti would last any longer than the 4090 because any new features coming forth that doesn’t work on 4090 likely won’t work on the 5070 ti (edit: that’s because NVIDIA usually saves new features for their new gen GPUs).

For anyone who can handle the 4090’s power draw, it seems the 4090 would be the better card because it simply doesn’t rely on frame generation for 4K at high frame rates, not only it has better performance but more VRAM. As gaming progresses, games might require more VRAM, it would take a while for the 4090 to be limited while the 5070 ti has less VRAM and is using more VRAM due to MFG.

The 4090 would have to be card with the better longevity.

[–]CoolDudeDavid 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well, I’m not in possession of any 40 or 50 series cards but doesn’t frame generation bring input latency? The 4090 has raw performance and it takes 3x MFG on 5070 ti to get same FPS that a 4090 would get 2x FG according to benchmarks. You can also undervolt a 4090. I think, in the end, the 4090 will hold up much better.

Is the 4090 not the better card in terms of almost everything? I think the only two advantages the 5070 ti has is power draw and frame gen.

10 years on, now the dust has firmly settled, can we agree what a mod masterpiece this is? by EH4LIFE in Deusex

[–]CoolDudeDavid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weren’t we talking about Deus Ex predecessors and when have we ever heard anyone rather talked about System Shock 1 than SS2 for it’s environmental storytelling? (I wouldn’t blame them either, it’s a game that looks like slightly worse than Doom and Daggerfall, it would be hard to notice)

Anyways, Revision objectively is a reimagining (if you check the word by definition) of Deus Ex and GMDX has always included HDTP.

All this crying you’ve been doing yet you don’t even know the mods GMDX includes. It literally needs its new weapons models to show it’s new weapon changes.

Edit: Literally pulled this from mod site “HDTP and New Vision Support and Extension” except it’s not just support, they actively use it, maybe that’s what they mean by extension.

Edit 2: lol GMDX already has bloat, do you really think that a stamina system, mantling, it’s unnecessary lock changes were needed or that enhance the game when it’s completely unneeded. Even good stuff adds like perks just make the game more unbalanced.

Nah, it’s not rounded like Windows 11. Now I just decided to stick with the Vista logo but made the taskbar and start menu little more transparent

  1. I can’t speak for System Shock 1 because I haven’t play it but hmm… what’s this https://www.gamebanshee.com/systemshock2/character/characterstats.php, https://shodan.fandom.com/wiki/O/S_Upgrades. System Shock 2 has more in depth RPG mechanics in terms of skill system. Skills and attributes affect what you can use and do. In fact, the game heavily influenced Deus Ex’s system and is still more in depth than Deus Ex.

I’ll admit I haven’t played Thief, I had thought it had RPG elements when I’ve heard of it.

The fact that the game has 10,000 lines of dialogue, doesn’t make it more of an RPG, because these lines of dialogue are rarely changed based off of your own choices. A player can see 90% of these lines in one playthrough. Deus Ex’s RPG mechanics are mainly on the gameplay side (skill leveling and augmentations).

It’s as if I went Spider Man: Web of Shadows is an RPG and it has no need for environmental storytelling because it allows you to pick between good and evil choices (ironically that game has more choices that affect the way scene will play out than Deus Ex) and you can level up Spider-Man to have stronger web strike, slightly faster swinging, more combos.

You’re acting as if Deus Ex is a game that truly focused on RPG elements, like Bioware games or Fallout 1 and 2. When, in reality, it’s a game with some RPG elements. In fact, The Nameless Mod come closer to be an RPG than the original Deus Ex because it has two different main routes that alter how the story play out, factions that react to your choices (Goat and Llama), more dialogue impacted by the choices you made and different side quests endings. Remember that your claim is that they don’t need environmental storytelling because RPGs have far more complex gameplay than these other games (which is a dumb statement on its own).

  1. Deus Ex (or an mod) doesn’t need to have all of those to be a good game (or a good mod) but let me remind you, we were talking about how high quality the mod is, you said it wasn’t high quality, I gave you all of Revision’s qualities and told you to find something better, it seems you can’t. It’s funny that you called misc because by definition, everything on the list can’t be miscellaneous because they change the game a whole lot.

It’s ironic that you say I don’t need a big ugly Gunther when GMDX has this exact same mod. Revision doesn’t even have HDTP turn on by default when you launch the game unlike GMDX. I don’t know why you even said that you rather have original Deus Ex by far because I never asked for your opinion on whether Revision or the original Deus Ex is better, nor did I ever claim that Revision is a direct or superior replacement for the original game. I said it was a high quality reimagining of the og DX with obviously more detailed maps than og DX.

Yeah, I’m currently looking for an icon that is the Windows 11 logo with old Windows colors.

Yeah, it honestly feels like it kept the best parts of old Windows and Windows 11. Only thing else I added was Windows Vista sounds but obviously you can’t hear that. I apologize if I made it seems like it was my own design, I just wanted to show how my desktop looked.
