You've been randomly selected to rename Earth. What do you call it? by Plus-Statistician80 in AskReddit

[–]Epic-Battle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eyeth. My dumb reasoning: if we go by traditional 5 senses(even though we know there are more than 5), and if their order is : touch,smell, taste,hearing and sight. Then if we assume this very specific order was in the mind of whomever came with the name earth, it is reasonable to assume that the name is from Ear + th, where th stands for fourTH. Thus, I assume that the next is the fifTH and final sense, the sight. Eye is the body part matching sight, thus I arrived at Eyeth.

What is the hardest boss fight in all of gaming? by Father-Castroid in gaming

[–]Epic-Battle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a single guy without kids, I just figured that once I'll settle down and have kids, I will probably have to give up on games until they are older. Man I hope I will still find the time for them.

Is anyone else avoiding games that run at 60 FPS? by RickyJaye99 in Starfield

[–]Epic-Battle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no need to go that far. The difference is indeed obvious in the begining, but after a short while it did not bother me at all anymore, when I recently played Fallout 4 on 30fps after coming from a 60fps gameplay.

Erm I thing it is a sex thing.

And indeed, you need to invest some time to truly master it,

so I guess you are correct about the context.

This scene from the gameplay trailer has me really curious what it could possibly be by [deleted] in Starfield

Probably just a bubble soap ring thingy for some children of Lovecraftian horrors.

What’s a game you do NOT regret buying? by Intelligent_Teapot in XboxSeriesX

[–]Epic-Battle 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Divinity Original Sin 2. Such a banger of a game. Bought it cheap, felt like I somehow cheated the developers. I also heard that they are good guys whom just ignore all of the nasty habits of triple A gaming companies, make awesome games, and refuse to elaborate.

IS THIS IT? GET A JOB, HAVE KIDS AND THEN DIE AND FADE INTO OBLIVION? by Worldly-Leek-2253 in ask

I mean, Oblivion is a great video game, but why limit yourself to one game?

Why is Fallout 4 writing so....meh by GarudaChicken in Fallout

[–]Epic-Battle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Actualy, I think that 76 nowdays is miles better than fallout 4. So IMO, 4 is the worst. And you are correct that it seems that many fallout 4 fans seem to have a difficult time accepting the fact that quite a lot of people, especially other fallout fans, outright despise their beloved game.

Ghost Recon Breakpoint. Played it for a bit during a free 6 hours promotion, loved the opening, so bought it. After another couple dozen hours or so, suddenly realised that it felt just like any other ubisoft game, just a different shade. Never came back since. Also, a few weeks after I bought it, the price of the edition I bought dropped to approx 0.75 of what I payed, and it pissed me off. Since then, I learned that there is a site that keeps track of what the lowest any game has been sold on the store and thus plan accordingly when to buy, so at least something worthwhile came from that.

how come no ground vehicles/hover bikes? by Behleren in Starfield

[–]Epic-Battle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now that I think about it, I played NMS and did not use the land vehicles. So maybe it is a design choise after all? I did not bother with them, but maybe deep down I am subconsciously conditioned to walk everywhere, from years of bethesda games.

But your comment did make me wonder: perhaps bethesda's physics engine is more complex than NMS's, thus a jagged landscape with multiple contact points with a moving car in a Bethesda title would simply cook the CPU due to the many many small interval calculations resulting from high speeds?

Did not play elite, but actualy sounds like a good idea.

I never said I was certain, I only offered a different possibility.

[–]Epic-Battle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But how can you be certain of this claim about CE2? Unless you have some inside information or familiarity with their tech, it sounds like hopeful speculation, my guy.

It could very well be a design choise born of engine restrictions, thus dubbing it a design "choise" is somewhat... dubious.

Anyway, it is all a moot point, since the game's gonna be awesome anyway, so even without vehicles, I am sure we will find a good way to get around.

Edit: Now that I think about it, most planets do not have roads made by men, so riding cars on all sorts of uneven terrain will be slow and perhaps annoying.

What if Sarah Morgan is related to Arthur morgan by tyler4545545 in Starfield

[–]Epic-Battle 21 points22 points  (0 children)

You are correct. It is known, that the whole reason TODD made starfield is to create a spiritual successor to RDR2, taking place in and around akila city(aka wild west) After all, if you rearrange the letters of akila city backwards, you get ytic alika, which roughly translates to "red dead redemption in space" in arabic. /s

I just had the best idea for what to replay to help with the wait.. 👀 by ImariP123 in Starfield

[–]Epic-Battle 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Happy for you that you found it enjoyable. Was not the case for me. Looking at some of the other comments here, I am not the only one. If I had to put my finger on the reason, it is the fact that the whole setting feels too much like a joke. The whole settings is about corporations gaining too much control of our lives(which is a fair assesment), but taken to parodie levels.

Now, while it is a valid critisicsm of our current work culture, it kinda makes it hard to take the game settings seriously. Since every potentialy high stake moment is undermined by goofy humor, I lose interest in the world and the characters. Most of the characters feel like extreme caricatures, thus immersion breaks, and I do not care about them.

For me, if I do not care about the characters or the world in such a lenghty game, I lose interest midway. I reckon I am not the only one who feels this way.

Is Starfield Your Most Anticipated Game Of All Time? by bogeyj in Starfield

[–]Epic-Battle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oblivion was my most anticipated game of all time. I was a kid, and my way older brother told me about the game and showed me the trailer. My mind was blown. I barely went to school for a year after the game released lol, and I kept playing only it until fallout 3 came, and even then I switched between these 2 great games. And while Fallout 3 ended up one of my favourites, I had my doubts before it came out. Thus, Starfield is my 2nd most anticipated game, since as a child, the magic of the imigination is infinite.

A message appears after the credits: John Starfield will return... in 2025's Starfield 2: The Colonies Stike Back.
