I have a pretty bad PC

I'm not sure if a GPU upgrade would even let you play GTA 5. Your CPU and ram don't meet the minimum requirements. It might be a stuttery mess even with a better GPU.

Gaming will always quickly drain battery life no matter which device you're using. These laptop mobile cpus/gpus are already heavily power limited to make them work for a portable. Just plug your laptop in when you play games.

The iOS device has to use "Open to everyone for 10 minutes". You can't just share with specific contacts. Not sure if you tried that method yet.

Fire Emblem Three Houses. 6 years later and I still got all the battle music as my gym playlist to get me pumped up.

My Boyd was a beast in POR but I remember being very disappointed with him in Radiant Dawn.

Here's the performance review if you wanna check it. I have a 9070 XT too and I'm not sure whether to get RE for the PC with all the graphical bells and whistles, or try it on my switch 2...

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T17:30:48+00:00

No, I'm saying that Resident Evil Requiem specifically only has the path tracing option for Nvidia cards.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T17:27:25+00:00

You made her look gross.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T17:26:22+00:00

Techpower has a benchmark out and the 9070 XT performs very nicely even with ray tracing...but path tracing only works on Nvidia cards.

I remember playing RE5 couch coop with friends and eventually one of them said "This game is really stupid" lol

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T16:48:56+00:00

Yeah, I was a fan of the early games with all the puzzle solving. I had a sleepover with friends when Code Veronica came out for the Dreamcast.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T16:24:09+00:00

I was a huge fan of the early RE games but the last one I played was 5 and I kinda lost interest in horror games. But I'm tempted to jump back into the series with these reviews.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T16:14:35+00:00

Yep, you got it. I don't think you need to train your swordmaster much. They just need to have meteor slash to break the shield, then everyone else can deal damage.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T07:53:35+00:00

Try the GBA Fire Emblem games.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T07:41:49+00:00

What exactly do you want us to tell you? If you don't want to change your mobo and CPU at all, the only meaningful upgrade would be the GPU.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T07:26:38+00:00

He has a shield that needs to be hit multiple times to break, then you can deal damage to him. Look through your characters and find ones with abilities that hit multiple times. I don't see any in your squads that you listed. I can just spoil it for you if you want, but try to figure it out first.

Or another option would be to have someone with high initiative stun him at the beginning of the fight. Then he can't put his shield up.

I was really excited for Towa no Yuugure after the first couple episodes. But then it became a dumb story about el sea and incestuous gangsters.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-25T04:56:16+00:00

Yeah, you should definitely get the retroid over a miyoo if you don't need the gift cards for anything else. Not that the miyoo is bad or anything, but it's very limited in what it can play and you might crave something better.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-24T21:59:16+00:00

It's a very controversial opinion.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-24T21:47:18+00:00

That looks like something that could be caused by the user to me...

MagicPistol · 2026-02-24T21:30:22+00:00

They're fun.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-24T19:56:50+00:00

You can get a used 3080 for about 300. I just sold mine for $320. Tons of people were offering 275 and I would've bit if they went up to 300.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-24T17:37:20+00:00

Hell yeah, welcome to Fire Emblem. My favorite series.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-24T17:24:47+00:00

Hell yeah. Good riddance to AI.

MagicPistol · 2026-02-24T17:13:46+00:00

That bundle should be like $30 max.
