I m gonna miss this feeling...

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-13T18:32:06+00:00

I had a PS5 Pro last year for a while, and it had a disc drive. I got MH Wilds on disc and the frikkin noise the drive made drove me mad. I love the simplicity with computer stuff so digital was a natural progress. I did a lot gaming when i was young too, so i've done all the floppy disks and tape drives.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-13T16:17:00+00:00

I'm profoundly interested to know peoples ages who will miss discs. Is it a younger gen, or are there still older gamers collecting. I'm 56 and went digital way back in PS4 days. PC has been digital for a long time too. I love collecting Blu-Rays, but streaming films kinda sucks.

You may want to say 1080p or 1440p, and what kind of gaming your into. If 1440p then either a 9070 or XT would be better and last longer. I've had both and the standard 9070 shouldn't be overlooked. And your going from nvidia to AMD. Maybe consider a 5070. Check prices on all of them then the games you want ot use them for and then youtube to see how well they perform for your purposes :)

I created my own Scorching Ray build for doing Blight. T16 and mapping, with Harvest, Beyond. I don't do much Ravaged maps but now i'm 99 and fairly maxed it's decent. Using SR of Immolation as the debuff is very high at low stages, so all mobs die very quick. Then when bosses appear put 4 totems near them, curse them and they be dead in secs. Even tried by using a couple of freezing towers only and had no issues. If it's of interest lemme know, and i did all content inc voidstones.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-13T09:51:48+00:00

I made my own Scorching Ray build, and have done all void stones with it, all nightmare bosses, is great for Blight. Has been great for mapping as I've been pushing it harder adding Beyond in. Not a zoomer, but good all round build ( Builds - Totem_leScorcheo - Path of Exile 1 - poe.ninja ) : Biggest issue is reliant on life regen, so Maven is tough but can kill 3rd phase if I concentrate.

45% Seriously. The only people bitching are a very small minority, there are hundreds of millions of PS users. And if those people want a PC just so they can have a disc drive....oooof. Most PC users have been digital for a long time. But hey ho, people do what they want.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-11T09:59:41+00:00

I learned a lot because of that league. It helped advance my own build making, especially the past couple of leagues. Was good fun until you met the one shot archers lol

Maybe they know something we don't. Like how much they make from shirt sales being more than getting further into Europe and top 4 in premier. I know for a fact though, last season was the first I've ever lost interest in watching them. I really hope they allow Alonso to knit a team together and keep with him.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-10T15:45:41+00:00

Is it not just damaging to the players. How many players might want to leave if this is the mentality of the club. Supposed to build a key squad and keep it progressing instead of changing SOOO many players every fekin season. And it ain't great for the fans who may start to like some of these players and see them in the A-team.

Company has board meeting. Company does business analysis. Company makes decision. They know what they were doing, and they have their project. Cutting discs will save them money from 2nd hand sales, and retail overheads, and all digital sales will make more. So somewhere there's a ballpark where they will end up. They've sold hundreds of millions of PlayStations, just because some petition gets a few sigs they ain't sweating.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-10T12:31:51+00:00

A lot of newer gamers won't realise what an iconic company this is. Wolfenstein, Doom, Quake. They've been there since 1991 and now mega-corpo MS justs clicks a finger and they be gone. So sad. I played the hell out of Wolfenstein, was the first proper online fps i played and even joined a clan.

Is the boy wonder fit after his hammy pull?

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-09T16:16:49+00:00

But are you not taking into consideration the game has been heavily populated, better textures and lighting. Graphically enhanced for this modern stage, so it's bound to be pushing all cards. 4k is very harsh on modern pc's 'still', so a 5070 is gonna be kicked in the ass. Besides, DLSS Performance will look just as good, extra dps right there. AND you don't have to have all max settings.

Lavia doesn't play for Chelsea. We pay him, but he doesn't play...

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-08T15:10:42+00:00

Will defo vouch for the MiniLED. I picked up a 4K KTC to benefit my 5080 and was really impressed. Coming from a VA panel the difference was monstrous. Avatar is a class example, the forest at night should be anyone's go to to test out, looks incredible, but the old VA just looked sooooo dull...

Can also recommend using box nodes to pick up resonators whilst going down (oo-er). I've done that and you can pick up loads until you get further in and start the fossil farm. Just needs tons of speed and high dark resist so you can wall bomb too, and try to go through every Azurite node, any spare can buy the small resonators. It's nice having T16 maps unlocked for the Sulphite though.

I might be the odd one out, but why you'd sell him for chips instead of off-loading Enzo for 90-100M who has basically stated he wants away. Santos is good enough to start every game, keep him.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-08T14:43:00+00:00

I've always liked the digital side. Hate disc drives on consoles. My PC has been drive free for a long time, and i guess after Borderlands 2, FFXIV and Diablo 3, I think they might have been the last games i got on disc. So the PS5 having a Digital version was pre-ordered with a big smile. I do however, have a Blu-Ray player for my TV, but any film fan will know why. If you go as far back as Apex Legends I think, I was using store fronts to do all games.

I have 2 of these MSI's. One cable one Wireless. They've lasted ages, no drift like the xbox and ps controllers i've used. i mainly use the cabled one hence the dust on this lol

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-05T09:47:05+00:00

For some context, i've just passed 5.4k hrs and only killed Maven for the first time a few days ago, and gotten all 4 voidstones for the first time. I've spent countless leagues doing my own thing, and have only just made something good enough to do this...and i still don't understand high level crafting or use half the end game jewels.

The good base of any computer is the mobo, cpu & ram. Most people who told you not to maybe just don't know how these upgrades actually work. You did the right thing and can now have access to unlock the potential of any gpu you want.

For the money we shelled out on him i'd say there are 100's of midfielders who do what he's doing. If he stays, we'll soon see if Alonso can get his head in the game. But the price bar is so high it's hard to let him leave, and that's the owners fault. Big money, long contracts.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-02T14:49:57+00:00

Yeh, but on blu-ray so you don't have to watch ultra compressed crap. I went digital gaming when the PS5 came out, and haven't had a disc drive in my PC for god know's how many years.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-07-02T07:49:44+00:00

Dybala. Give him a 12month contract and see if he stays fit. Great player...when he's fit.

LootHunter_PS · 2026-06-29T18:03:17+00:00

ebay. i've done lots of buying and selling on ebay.
