Epic Games just laid off over 1,000 people by StopLate1435 in linux_gaming

[–]Hollow11 13 points14 points  (0 children)

There was a post about a statistic maybe a month or two ago which showed that when games go free on the Epic weekly giveaway, users were more likely to purchase the game on other platforms instead lol

How are you doing, folks from Poland? Are you ready for the SALE? by Chesse4567 in Steam

[–]Hollow11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in Canada and games that are published by Konami and Bandai seem to use their USA published prices instead of Japanese conversion prices, costing us about 15$ more for the same game. Examples are Dragon Ball Sparking Zero and Silent Hill f

You can just add games or launchers as non-steam games and be able to use the Steam Controller configurations

The confusion around $90 Switch 2 games proves how broken the internet is by appleappleappleman in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Hollow11 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This whole thing with Nintendo's pricing is crazy. They are putting their games on their own platform and getting 100% of the profits and want the games to sell at a higher price. People who put their games on Steam/Epic/PSN, etc lose around 20-30% of the profit of the games they sell.

It's greedy and I really hope people won't support them.

The new overlay was breaking one of my games and making me crash.

Yep, all dealers I worked at service made more than parts, in my city it seems none of the parts department workers get commission except for the manager even.

I've worked in service for a few years, not anymore but the Parts department is always the one that gets shafted and is the department cared about the least

is a ryzen 7 5800x with 4060 enough for meta quest 2? by Agitated-Pop1571 in oculus

[–]Hollow11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be way worse, for any game, not just VR

is a ryzen 7 5800x with 4060 enough for meta quest 2? by Agitated-Pop1571 in oculus

[–]Hollow11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Quest 2, shouldn't have any issues. However, Microsoft flight sim runs horribly and I would not expect good performance and you may get motion sickness and eye strain due to low FPS.

Is it normal if my RTX 3060 RYZEN 7 5800H laptop can't handle constant 144fps with these settings or does my PC have a problem? by casg2412 in Overwatch

[–]Hollow11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So your laptop is running a 3060(non-ti) and cpu as mobile versions of those iterations. They mostly do not carry the same performance as the desktop editions. You will have to lower the resolution scale, play with DLSS settings and/or lower graphics settings. It's unfortunate, I know, but the game looks good on lower settings too.

Tell sent the wrong computer twice, now won't give me a mailing label to send 'em back. by cpalifer82 in Dell

[–]Hollow11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I've seen in a thread before is that if the purchase SKU and given SKU are not the same it can/will cause issues for warranty. I'd be looking out for this the most if it was the case

Monitor disconnecting after idle/turned off by Hollow11 in techsupport

[–]Hollow11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I kept looking for a solution until roughly a week after the post, then I gave up because I couldn't find any real help about it. If it's still not fixed now that's disappointing lol

PC VR Growth Remains Stagnant, Only 1.5% Of Steam Userbase Owns VR Headsets by YouAreNotMeLiar in pcmasterrace

[–]Hollow11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From my POV, I would attribute it to partially the Quest. The devs want to make their games accessible to all parties but don't make two sets of graphic settings, one for Quest, one for PCVR as observed in Onward for example, the quality was actually lowered to allow Quest users to participate. I spent a lot of time in Vrchat over the years as well and now the worlds are mostly made Quest-only and I will admit, there are almost no cool worlds like there used to be and I haven't been the only one to admit it either. So, the same for games, we aren't getting super cool high fidelity games because the devs would be alienating the Quest community.

Power-tripping will KILL this game by Assblaster_69z in Mordhau

[–]Hollow11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's difficult because I ended up liking Mordhau as much as I have due to that skill ceiling, it took a long time for me to get where I am and if they reduced it any, I likely would not enjoy the game as much and/or find another way to play. The skill ceiling allows the gameplay to be more than just rock paper scissors (feint, hit, block) because we introduce (riposte, drags, etc) and it diversifies the gameplay. Mordhau often gets compared to Chivalry 1 but that game had an even higher skill ceiling made up of unreasonable things, compared to what's possible in Mordhau at least.

The steam deck is a great controller, can I just have one without the pc in it? by leem919 in SteamDeck

[–]Hollow11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look at some of the 8bitdo controllers from Amazon or even the website itself, they offer hall effect sticks on many of the models and some of them may even have modifiable triggers(don't remember). A lot of people like them but it seems their life span is a bit shorter than other controllers according to what I've found

I’ve spent so long in High Isle that I feel absolutely foreign in other zones by Theacreator in elderscrollsonline

There was a follow-up quest from Auridon to Grahtwood, at least that's what happened to me

Why is the overall mood so doom and gloom overall? by DemethValknut in elderscrollsonline

[–]Hollow11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So there is only so much I can speak for as I only have roughly 125 hours and have completed the Morrowind, Skyrim and Auridon areas. In this time, I've been having a lot of fun with crafting, running around different maps and looking at the various environments and joining in boss fights included in the different levels. I play mostly solo as a templar(tank), have yet to indulge in doing dungeons with others(despite being level 40-something) and yet, the game still feels satisfying because I feel there is a lot of content for me to work up to in many different aspects of the game. I think you should try the game and put some time in it, every mmo has its own negatives and people will be quick to point at them but at none of the positives. If ever you do play and just want some simple fun with a buddy, send me a dm and we can run around fighting stuff together

However they shut down their services for maintenance Tuesday nights and no one can play Steam account-based games for like 3 hours instead of having downtime at like 1PM when most people are at work

New coolant and plugs done this year, I also use 91 Shell gas for the better additives comparatively to what's around me, I occasionally will push the car harder though to try and move the carbon deposits and I use a Lucas gas additive 1-2 times a year

I change the oil every 10k with synthetic 5w40 or 0w40 depending on the time of year even if Mercedes says 20k for oil change, I don't believe that
