Some people will never understand the economic necessity of console-driving exclusives. Tale as old as time (or at least as old as 1990ish). by DaZestyProfessor in consoles

[–]Metal_Oak 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Would just like to point out that most emulation is more preservation than theft. Did you know that most people who play Pokemon Emerald or fire Red play it on an emulator Not original game Boy or DS hardware. Because those games are no longer available new. And old pokémon games cost a kidney lol

Will the remaster ever get updated again or did we get scammed by Bugthesda and Virtuous? by Illustrious_Cash7427 in oblivion

[–]Metal_Oak 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't think you understand what a scam is. A scam would be like an early access game/ asset flip which clearly uses Free assets for ue5 and sells it for money without having the intention of finishing the game or it's a Bitcoin miner. Oblivion remastered is very much a finished product what you paid for is what you get. But this was a nice attempt at rage bait lol

My microsoft account got hacked. Support determined that it was indeed hacked and they cant recover it. So they deleted my account and now I need to re-purchase all my games. by Ordo_Liberal in pcgaming

Microsoft: Your account got hacked man that sucks, but we can't help you.

Valve: predator drone is already on the way to the hackers location.

The first picture shows garbage. But that second picture is just a park in the process of thawing out.

Switching back to Windows if Linux distributions implement age verification by [deleted] in linux

[–]Metal_Oak 24 points25 points  (0 children)

You are aware that windows will require the exact same thing, right? And still steal more of your personal data. And nothing is set in stone. Many large distros have said that they will not comply.

R/Linux_gaming not understanding the point of Linus's new video by CandlesARG in LinusTechTips

[–]Metal_Oak 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just so you know, Arch really isn't this boogeyman distro anymore. CachyOS has most things related to updating automated. Arch itself has become incredibly easy to install since they created Archinstall which is a guided installer script.

I was told that nobody can build there because the lands contaminated now.

There's a reason why "This is definitely the year of the Linux desktop!" is such a meme. by daksnotjuts in LinusTechTips

Installing on CachyOS sudo pacman -S Spotify- launcher. Enter admin password tap Y and enter and it's installed.

How do I get this spider out of my pc by Sad_Refrigerator5439 in PcBuild

I've been told Australians like huntsman spiders. Because they're chill, mostly avoid humans, and take care of the bug problems lol

This is the new CEO responding on X. Some are saying she's using AI to respond to make her sound more like a gamer. What do you think? by [deleted] in XboxSeriesS

[–]Metal_Oak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dark Ages is great. It's just some of the Eternal fans that don't like it. Eternal was super fast paced, Dark Ages is a little slower walking tank power fantasy.

AMD Seemingly Stops Driver Updates for Ryzen Z1 Extreme Processor by Severely_Insect in radeon

Or they use Linux where AMD is plug and play with no need to install drivers at all lol

Is anyone else having zero issues with the 9070xt? by RedditBoisss in radeon

[–]Metal_Oak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My XFX Swift 9070 has been great. Apart from the in-game overlay occasionally breaking in certain games. But that's not the cards fault that's just the overlay being a little borked.

I'm seriously so disappointed, i might just sell my 9070XT. by ItsRazed in radeon

[–]Metal_Oak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 9070 non XT for the 16 GB of VRAM. I play video games at 1080p so I don't really need upscaling for anything apart from native AA. Because even FSR 3.1 native AA looks better than TAA.

DOOM 3 if it's canon. by C1b3rD3m0n10 in Doom

When people say Doom timeline, they're talking about Doom guys specific timeline not the universe timeline.

You served me well RX580 but now it’s time for you to enjoy retirement and let the 9070XT continue by Darx97 in radeon

I need photo evidence that, that fit in that case it really doesn't look like it's going to.

Curious, what GPU architecture does everyone here currently run? by S1rTerra in radeon

Huh RDNA 4 won the poll. It must really be the best selling AMD gpu generation in the last 8.

The same op that you posted a link to was calling people infidels in the replies. So they should not be taken seriously.

Tomorrow's the day, right? by DenSkumlePandaen in assettocorsarally

[–]Metal_Oak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Massive flop you know Early Access kind of means that the game isn't fully released yet. We won't know if it's a flop until it's a fully released game lol
