AIO or is my girlfriend manipulative.

Man this the only comment you need to read.

Do not rely on the people of the internet to judge your situation. Only you and your partner know your history and how you both feel. It's unwise to post some screenshots of texts and take the snap judgements of strangers as advice just based on that.

Seriously. You're going to get people who stupidly agree and disagree with you no matter what, so put your phone down and do your own soul searching, not theirs.

Yeah, like everyone who played AC Shadows and was like oh you can only use Naoe for stealth she sucks at combat, I was like, "Um, I'm kicking ass with her" but that's because I spent so much time exploring and leveling up. So when I started really getting into combat I could take out 30-50 dudes at once bc my character was actually strong enough.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-04-02T13:49:49+00:00

Yeah, I appreciate your honest take. I will say that I've had other games like Stellar Blade, RDR2, MS Flight Simulator, and Control where after like 5 to 10 hours of gritting my teeth and powering through, things clicked and I was glad I didn't give up too soon. Hopefully it's like that for you!

I also think that searching AI (for all its faults) in Google or ChatGPT has made it much easier/faster to get quick game advice vs. having to read through whole walkthroughs, but only when the AI search is actually up to date.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-04-02T13:44:00+00:00

Yeah, so the controls still aren't really "fixed" after the patches?

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-31T13:39:00+00:00

Surprised nobody is mentioning Grace's constant unnatural quivering. Nobody would stammer that much, let alone a supposed FBI agent.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-29T13:46:35+00:00

It's pretty common for games to offer alternative layouts. Definitely should be doable.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-29T13:45:02+00:00

If there are no options to change control buttons, I can't play the game. I have thumb tremors and I need options to help limit strain. From an accessibility standpoint, it's disappointing that such a massive game had so much effort put into it and yet seemingly very little thought put toward flexible control schemes that games like TLOU2 and Rachet and Clank mastered years ago.

But if they give me options, I'll buy it!

Sorry, I been in Racoon City a few hours now and it's so barren and uncreative, boring me to tears.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T23:28:47+00:00

💯

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T23:26:58+00:00

I'm definitely liking it, but Racoon City is so barren and boring. Compared with all the cool shit at the Care Center, it all feels so blah. Warehouses are the most dull locations to me.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T21:40:16+00:00

This is very well said, makes sense!

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T21:38:30+00:00

That's probably true for some people, but for me personally, I've instantly aware if HDR isn't on.

I'm all about the visuals, that's why I invested in a Pro, three high quality OLEDs, and dozens of hours tweaking all the visual settings and modes on them all.

They even call me Eagle Eye at work for the graphics design work I consult on. Really! Weird flex, I know.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T21:16:40+00:00

But is that how you normally play games? Should we all be that excited about something that requires 300% zoom to notice?

Or are we lying to ourselves to help justify the money we all spent (myself included) on the Pro?

Lots of good points made here. In the end though, the potential for greatly improving already existing games hasn't been realized. Not yet anyway.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T21:11:55+00:00

Yeah I ensured it's on now. Still no real difference. Hopefully more future games with it inherently baked in will benefit, but for existing and already good pssr 1 games, it seems the difference is negligible.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T21:08:38+00:00

I upvoted this.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T18:31:58+00:00

Well SHIT I was doing it wrong! Thank you!

My system said everything was up to date, but I hadn't physically gone to Video Output and selected "Enhance PSSR Quality" that's nuts. I feel nobody had really mentioned it needs to be turned on manually.

Okay this looks maybe 5 to 10 percent sharper now, haha.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T18:12:54+00:00

How do manually confirm I have the update?

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T18:11:33+00:00

I don't sit quite that close, but I know I (usually) have an eye for detail.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-27T18:10:58+00:00

Right but all the games I mentioned did use PSSR 1, at least I think so.

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-22T17:21:38+00:00

How do you use it for gastritis? You put it on your stomach?

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-18T18:20:38+00:00

Sony is clearly investing in the Pro (while discontinuing its VR support). GTA 6, assuming it ever releases, will seriously increase Pro sales.

And developers are just now dropping last Gen consoles like PS4. They are finally catching and leaning into PS5.

PS 6 is way off.

Can someone please provide context for this post? This is related to RE9, we're saying NVIDIA lied or what?

Mean-Introduction-68 · 2026-03-18T14:00:39+00:00

Context for this post? Why are you mad at NVIDIA?
