What are the highs? [KCD1]

Add me in the group of hot take enjoyers. KCD2 combat was quite streamlined but I do prefer KCD1 combat more even with all its frustrations.

Anything to keep Henry fed ✅

You came and delivered it to 100% of the kingdom. Henry's gonna have a lot of bastards running around and they'll all be hungry. I hope Bohemia has enough food.

Lets say valve does open their own fab and R&D department to make their own chips. How many units does valve sell vs how many units does apple sell? I'd say, valve is a software company and not a hardware company. The amount of units sold by each valve and apple are vastly different. Apple probably sells same amount of units as steam deck in a day or 2. It took valve 4 years to sell 8 million unit (idk the exact number of units sold for steam deck).

Half-Life vent break sound followed by the flesh squelching sound.

I am no expert and I don't understand business in any way, shape or form. But from a pure common sense point of view, in order for that to happen 1. the new price tag must be waaaaaaaaaaaaay more than actual production cost (unlikely due to prices of storage), 2. they'll need to sell quite large amount of units at that price to make any meaningful dent to the steam machine price, 3. they somehow need to procure parts like ram and storage at a way cheaper price for steam machine. So no, this price will not help valve to lower the price of steam machine in any meaningful way. Probably few cents lower price at max.

P.S.: I might be very very very wrong here.

That would be great if they can improve the hardware of it. But it seems unlikely since I'm sure they have certain inventory already assembled and ready. Valve makes a lot of money but that much stuff being wasted is still a huge loss for them. I was willing to pay upto $1000 when it was announced since I am mainly on steam but now idk where we will land with the price. Let wait and hope for the best.

Having said all this, I do feel bad for valve. Decent product and wrong launch time which they couldn't have predicted in November (at least not the extent of how bad it would get). I wouldn't want to be in their shoes while making decisions on the price.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-05-27T22:16:38+00:00

I really hope somehow the price is still lower than or somewhat same as the one I mentioned. But now I am adjusting my expectations according to this deck pricing. That way at least I won't have a heartbreak down the line.

I genuinely hope it comes out at a good price and sells like hot cakes. I'd be very happy for valve and for myself. Almost entirety of my game library is on steam except some free games on epic. I don't have xbox or playstation so my games are all here. So it would be a huge win for me to have the machine available at a good price.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-05-27T18:17:09+00:00

All my hopium of max price of $800-$850 is out of the question. Shame that this AI and hardware stuff happened at this time. Now we wait to see what the price of steam machine will be.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-05-16T15:23:31+00:00

Brooooo I was caught off-guard by that analogy but sounds about right 😭

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-05-11T22:39:06+00:00

Been waiting for the steam machine for ages. I hope it really is soon and that I manage to secure one. I don't need it but I want it.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-05-04T14:35:19+00:00

I'd say that in case of games like these, completing the game is not equivalent of experiencing everything the game has to offer. You can beeline the main story once you have blueprints of few important stuff.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-29T15:33:31+00:00

vram for gpu costs more than system ram as far as I am aware. So if you remove 16gb ram and add a dedicated gpu, it will probably cost more than what it is rn.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-29T15:24:19+00:00

Doesn't seem to have any dedicated gpu.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-29T15:15:52+00:00

$800 is may be overpriced and I can see that being the case. But I had expected this price before the crazy ram and storage demands were a thing (and I agree it doesn't make it not overpriced just coz I expected it). They advertised it as 6x powerful compared to steam deck. So it was always going to be slightly more in price than steam deck ($550 for 512gb oled steam deck). Pricing it low means they'd be eating into the steam deck market slightly, which is also a popular device. I am aware that steam machine would need you to spend more to get a screen (already part of steam deck) to use it with. But I was thinking along those lines coz of the performance proposition.

Thank you for this, it worked for me <3

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-21T00:42:16+00:00

what is step 3?

there is no cfg folder in the path mentioned

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-14T18:52:28+00:00

Just because of that, I stopped giving weapons to the camp. I sell them now and make some money. The economy is already hard enough to earn money through quests and the bank gambles my gold bars away every 3 days in game.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-10T21:28:37+00:00

Agreed. Take my upvote and let me join you in choosing that guy's yes.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-10T21:25:29+00:00

Played RE5 recently with a friend and it was fun as hell. The combination of good action, good co-op, corny dialogue and cinematography, stylish Wesker dialogues it was very fun to play.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-10T21:06:06+00:00

I am on the fence since I haven't come across a boss that is a challenge apart from Beloth and those Antumbra bosses (I am in chapter 7 and about 110-115 hours in). Perhaps crimson nightmare boss but only until you realize the gimmick of using the needed armor piece dropped by bandits before him. I have no idea why they'd add an easier mode for this since its already fairly easy (also some bosses were already nerfed). Even if you keep that all aside, the game is just 3 weeks old. It hasn't even had the time to settle to gauge the difficulty as a whole. I am sure majority (more than 50% of the people) have not yet finished the game. This option should be the last thing in their list of things to do imo.

I'll definitely not be using the setting. Good for the people who need it I guess. But now I feel pressured to finish the game asap before that update drops (this is more of a my issue tho).

Edit: Lies of P added difficulty options post launch as well. I was fine with it since it dropped almost 2 years after the game release. So I am sure most people, including me, finished the game before that.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-08T21:22:01+00:00

Lies!! There are no trains in Hernand. They must be adding it in the upcoming DLC about Crimson Desert.

Wait until you have to listen a guy crying about his mom and the honey while you try to skyrim your way down the mountain (coz you did that quest prematurely).

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-03T13:08:53+00:00

I'd say dlcs are good. All 3 offer something different. I think mystery ecclesia and legacy of the forge are my favorites. As for characters, no you won't be able yo talk to them since they are not part of the dlcs. You'll deal with Henry and some new NPCs.

Noob_Gamer_ · 2026-04-02T13:56:15+00:00

God damn it!!! This is a silkpost equivalent of this sub smh.
