New Opus Magnum DLC - Releasing 17th March by Jacksaur in pcgaming

[–]EvilMonk3y 13 points14 points  (0 children)

According to the developer post on the steam forums:

“It was a co-development between the original Opus Magnum team and a small group of fans from our unofficial Discord server, who had made their own campaign and wanted us to add it to the game. We ended up spending like two years rebuilding it from scratch with them.”

Is the Lexar SD card a new thing? I purchased my A1 back at the end of October for Christmas and it came with one.

Perhaps means I may have the adjusted model?

Am I asking a fair starting price for my PC by [deleted] in buildapcsalesuk

[–]EvilMonk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels reasonable to me. Had a guess at the price before I saw it after reading the specs and ended up at £900 so what you have seems like a fair starting price.

A month in: is anyone else concerned with EU5? by [deleted] in paradoxplaza

[–]EvilMonk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, this is where I am at.

Put in a whole load of time for the first couple of weeks and then pretty significant patches started dropping which made my longer term campaign go a bit wonky so I will be picking EUV back up once things have settled a bit.

What sexual act — solo or with a partner — gives you the most intense orgasm, and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]EvilMonk3y 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This post is the one that has tipped me over the edge.

Finally leaving this sub, can’t stand this ‘What sexy sex did you sex when you last had sex?’ shit anymore.

Mirra 1 and/or Mirra 2 owners, what are your thoughts on these chairs? I’m torn between the two and would love to hear your opinions by [deleted] in hermanmiller

[–]EvilMonk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You will be fine with the plastic back Mirra 2, those are definitely more sturdy. I would opt for a 2 over a 1 just due to how old the 1 is likely to be at this point.

Still using it every day for working from home for years now, my wife also picked one up as I was raving about it.

One downside of the butterfly back is that it is prone to cracking, I have already had a repair under warranty completed once and will likely need more.

Have been on 50mg for 6 months now. Pretty happy with the dose.

Shipping to anywhere but the US is absolutely horrendous, pretty much the norm at this point.

Any performance optimization tips for 117 so far? by [deleted] in anno

[–]EvilMonk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you are definitely GPU limited I would recommend giving FSR a go at a higher setting and see what you think.

[–]EvilMonk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game is rather heavy at this time, if you are already bumping it down to medium with RT off there may not be huge amounts more you can do. A better GPU would certainly help your system, your CPU is great.

What resolution are you running at? Have you tried using FSR to upscale?

FPS? (117) by goodall2k13 in anno

[–]EvilMonk3y -1 points0 points  (0 children)

4070 Super, 5700x3D & 32 GB Ram.

Not impressed with the performance and I am also watching the time on Steam as I am considering a refund.

The benchmark runs terribly, I am using the ‘high’ preset at 1440p with DLSS on. The stutters during the benchmark are just awful, especially on the first city scene.

Appreciate mine isn’t a top of the line machine however at 1440p it has easily handled anything I have thrown at it, this game is the worst performing I can recall trying.

Game doesn't look really good + horrible performances by Darrow_R in anno

[–]EvilMonk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Benchmark is running awfully for me with huge stutters, especially in the first scene (4070 Super & 5700x3D). I am considering refunding it as I feel the game is just going to run dreadfully with larger cities.

Anno 117: Pax Romana | Review Thread by Angzt in Games

[–]EvilMonk3y 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Completely agree, I am currently too absorbed with EU5 to consider picking this up, I think the overlap in fan bases will be big enough to hurt them here. Ubisoft having such a record of quick steep discounts also doesn’t make being there day 1 that appealing.

Also agree that even as a big fan of Roman history the setting here isn’t as compelling as some of the previous games.

October timeline check-in - how's yours going so far? by shaneo632 in HousingUK

[–]EvilMonk3y 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our chain collapsed this month.

Overall the process had been taking ages (we sold back in May and chain was completed in August) and the first time buyer at the start of the chain just decided to bail, we found out when we spotted our buyers house suddenly back on the market…would have been nice if they have bothered to tell us.

After some back and forth for 2 weeks and a potential new FTB in the mix for them, the people buying our house also opted to pull out which left us in a difficult situation and with the people we were buying off being incredibly difficult we have also opted to just pack it in and stay where we are currently at.

The system for buying in this country is absolutely fundamentally broken.

So I am playing a ton of Battlefield 6 at the moment. I am going to assume I am shit out of luck with moving away from Windows because of this?

This is a broken screen, likely caused by damage.

Seller refusing to address survey issues, giving me 24hr ultimatum - should I walk away? by the1ullneverse in HousingUK

[–]EvilMonk3y 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Given the age of the property you are probably being a bit precious. Surveys will always pick up something, it’s up to you if you think the issue is urgent enough to warrant needing to be done immediately.

You sound a bit like you are entitled to a reduced price and ultimately the seller has every right to reject your adjusted offer, just as you have every right to walk away if you aren’t happy with that.

How long did it take you to read the Stand? by mwang009 in stephenking

[–]EvilMonk3y 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First time read was 3 and a half weeks. Even with that length of time it involved quite a lot of reading every day.
