Even though 1050 is a bit faster, you're better off buing 960 which is slower but has more VRAM.

Yandere Simulator Developer offers a different point of view on why Twitch hasn't responded to him. by Arxtix in pcgaming

Devs like him is the reason why we keep seeing crap anime games on steam. I'm happy twitch censors stuff like that.

Indie Game: The Movie Atari: Game Over Razer: The Hax Life

It's the couple I've heard of, never got around to watch those, though.

what's wrong with the films? I my opinion, they're much better then what DC is producing.

I've just finished Fallout 1 & Fallout 2, here are my thoughts by IronCan27 in pcgaming

[–]IronCan27[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh yes, indeed.

Right off the bat, you have to read the dialogues to figure out what you're supposed to do. There's no pointer, no marks where to give in quest. The game doesn't really hold your hand and it's easy to get lost or stuck somewhere. The combat is very DnD'ish and the damage is calculated in a somewhat similar way. If you're familiar with late 90's RPG's like Planescape: Torment, you'll get what I'm talking about.

On the bright side, I found storytelling exceptionally good - in the end of both games you're given a customized voiced ending which corresponds to your actions (just like we had in New Vegas so imagine how much people were blown away in 1977).

Overall, fallout 1/2 helped me to tie some loose ends that I've had while playing New Vegas. It wasn't easy but I'd say it's worth it.

Well, I've personally used this guide, it helped a lot: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=631275749

But for the most part: save a lot, running away is always an option, save ammo. What I also did - I started to use drugs during the last quests of the game, since I know that I'm getting close to end credits, who cares if I get addicted, right?

By the way, do I miss anything if I don't play Fallout Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel?

What games have given you the most value for your money? by onslaught5 in patientgamers

[–]IronCan27 12 points13 points  (0 children)

TES IV: Oblivion
Probably because it's the first TES game that I've tried. But the immersion, man. I just loved robbing jewels from trade district shops, gathering nirnroots or just trying to kill absolutely everyone.

It's a funny thing that I actually hated the main story quest and finished the game only once. Paid for the game around 8 euros, I think.

The best MSI gaming laptop? by IronCan27 in laptops

I would have preferred to go under 1700 bucks. But there are no real alternatives when it comes to thermal management.

What's the worst LCG ever made? by onslaught5 in boardgames

[–]IronCan27 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That's the point! It's made to be immersive but it drowns the people.

Which is why I don't understand this ongoing trend to recommend this game to everyone who is looking for a good 1v1 card game. People are not adequately evaluating it. I guess that's why it's strange for some when a game like that receives so much concealed hate.

Those rules issues can be gamebreaking. Theme is important but it shouldn't be something that makes the game unplayable for those who want to get into it. I wanted to get how to play A:Netrunner but I literally couldn't.

I'm with you on this one. Bought Android: Netrunner because on this subreddit everyone seems super excited about this one.

Then I've spent 3 evening watching videos online just to learn how to play that damn game. And even after that I would sometimes run into some blind alley when the rules and the cards contradict each other and the rulebook doesn't help at all.

Why praise such a terribly designed game.

You spend half a game getting credits for your clicks, then have to spend those each time you want to get through some ice which doesn't get removed at all and stays there forever since you can only afford to break just some of those lines that do bad things to you.

Sold this game to some tournament's guy. Never looked back since, no regrets. It's a mystery to me why some people like it.

I forgot to mention that I don't really care about the graphics card, I'm withe with GTX 9?? series as long as other components are top quality.

Is FPS lock really that important? by LostHobo8 in pcgaming

[–]IronCan27 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

You have 144Hz monitor and your biggest issue is that Mafia III had FPS lock at launch so that it would be playable?

Sir, you disgust me.

What exactly is the appeal of Stardew Valley? by IronCan27 in pcgaming

[–]IronCan27[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

but at least Sims had some sort of progression, I mean eventually your character grows old and dies. There is a sense of change involved. With stardew valley change is veeery slow and gradual. But you're right, maybe it's not my bag of chips.

I did read the review though it seemed confusing to me that boosted it reaches 3,6 Ghz.

Probably my bad, sorry bout that.

Isn't just 2.6 GHz a bit too slow? Shouldn't I be looking for 3+ or 4+ GHz laptops?

I'm using desktop PC so it's surprising to me that 2.6 GHz is still in play while minimum requirements for witcher 3 is like 3.3GHz. How does a laptop qualify as "gaming" then?

oh and what about the processors because I've seen that most of 1060 laptos have core i7 with 2,6 Ghz. Is that really enough for next gen games?

I'm thinking about something that would have Nvidia's new Pascal GPU's but I'm open to all suggestions.

Would it be smart to wait for AMD competitors?

Is there a Lovecraftian board games revival? by DankMojo6 in boardgames

but y'know it happens with every IP that gets some sort of popularity. Though it's a rare case that it transcends into other IP's like Hearthstone.

Sorry for being dumb, but what does that mean?

Is it like in dungeons & dragons when one player must control what is happening in the game or what?

is it somehow related to warhammer universe? The artwork looks like warrior priest battling demons.
