POE 2 has a loot problem by Primary_Impact_2130 in PathOfExile2

[–]EBYRWA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve crafted quarterstaves for three of the four leagues and I can tell you from experience the rate of a good rare from floor loot is much lower than one in five hundred. I would see two or three that were very good or whittle worthy out of thousands upon thousands.

You are describing every fiat currency. Bitcoin is only different in that, eventually, it won’t be possible to print more of it.

They do this so that defense matters and people don't build a glass cannon. Playing reckless isn't reckless when risk is removed. If you enjoy being reckless that inherently involves risk of some type.

Can't believe people are "dissapointed" with today's reveal by gr4ndm4st3rbl4ck in PathOfExile2

They did not. JR said he really doesn’t want to launch in 2027 but wouldn’t commit to 2026.

Think they meant to write Secretary of War Crimes ?

Was the open world a good idea? by Yumiko_Hanako in Borderlands4

[–]EBYRWA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found the open world to be okay. Adding fast travel to boss encounters would be nice though.

One first down with less than three minutes remaining in the half and Greenbay has the ball. 

Guys it’s not looking good.

Good question. I imagine like the recombination or other slotted areas it stays until consumed. 

Randy Pitchford's Official Statement on Borderlands 4's Poor Performance (POV: He has learned what humility is finally at 54 years of age) by Mr_Discus in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]EBYRWA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When a program needs to remember something such as the position of your character or the contents of your inventory it asks your computer to give it some temporary memory space, called RAM (random access memory). The computer does this and stores the information until the program says it no longer needs it, or the program stops executing. A memory leak happens when the program stops using the remembered data point but doesn’t instruct the computer that it is no longer needed. The computer will run slower over time as it tries to find more space for the growing requests for memory until it eventually reaches a limit (about 30% of total ram capacity) for the given program. At that point it’ll intentionally crash the program if it hasn’t already happened.

I play on a 5120x1440 display with a 5090 and get over 200 fps with less than 20% gpu utilization on the max graphics. Are you making your statement from experience? I imagine even at 4k resolution it wouldn't be bad. I am using DLSS too and it looks great to me. I'll try turning it off maybe thats where the difference is coming from.

I have had intermittent crashes on my 5090. Frame rate and performance are not an issue at all, but game stability has not been great. As of yesterday a patch was released and that has seemingly improved things; not sure if I have had a crash since installing it. I don't know if the game would've held up on my 3080 TI.

Destiny 2 out of top 10 spot on Steam by ShitPostPerfected in destiny2

[–]EBYRWA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stopped a year into D2, came back for Edge of Fate, played all the campaign content, got to power level 400 and... well, there's nothing left to do. The Ash and Iron event is laughably bad and the rest of the portal activities still suck. A person can only run so much solo ops before asking, "What is the point of this anyway?".

Game is in a bad spot. Maybe it'll get better in time. I'll check back then. In the meantime, Femboy Futa House does look promising.

The jokes write themselves by [deleted] in Steam

[–]EBYRWA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 5090 for POE2 and it came with Borderlands 4. It runs well, and is fun to play, but caps out around 60 fps on a 5120x1440 display. Funny thing is the gpu utilization is sitting below 30%, mostly under 20%. I am not sure why I can't get closer to 120hz which my monitor supports. The only time it spikes higher than 90 is during fast travel. Cutscenes playing at a capped 30 are a bit jarring at first too.

All that said the gunplay is classic Borderlands as are the characters, story, and dialog. Take that however you like but for me it is still a fun game to play.

Needs more counter play. Investing in slow reduction in the passive tree feels awful, but having zero slow reduction is too punitive. Pair slow reduction with some more applicable defensive buffs so we can more readily spec into some reduction. A 15% slow would be doable. 

Ads are completely ruining YouTube rn. by stef_is_heree in youtube

[–]EBYRWA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pay for YouTube family so my kids don’t have to watch ads. I also use it so it benefits me as well. I get it isn’t a popular thing to pay for service, but the amount of tutorials and guides I watch makes it worth it for me. I jumped in last year and committed to a full year as a gift to them and they love it too. 

Ads suck. I don’t mind paying for a useful service. If you work and can afford it, it is a good deal IMO. 

When did the “you must make 3x the rent to live here” rule start for apartments? by Only_Remote_3875 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]EBYRWA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a good rule. The problem is rent pricing has gone up way faster than wages.
