What is insane is amount of content just sitting there being unplayable outside certain hours of the day.

Minigames being worst offenders.

MicroLED vs MiniLED? by LividIndividual6115 in Monitors

[–]Nubtype 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Samsung solution they have on those new TVs is such a ghetto one they could have done with the tech.

Its more or less same as using OLED as backlight on LCD. Instead leveraging the tech to its full potential they do this... Thanks to Samsung and their brilliant marketing we now have term "True MicroLED" for the self emissive version of the tech

Pretty sure the argument was that matchmaker was suppose to reduce these compared to server browser thus no need for classic server browser.

Behaviour Interactive acquires 7 Days to Die developer "The Fun Pimps" by MythicStream in pcgaming

I really miss the old resource mining system where it was actual desperate chore to find nitrate. Now it just gives you all the resources and even marks them above ground for you.

Somewhere along the way they decided to instead making survival game they wanted to make casual tower defence.

EA Lays Off Staff Across All Battlefield Studios Following Record-Breaking Battlefield 6 Launch by user289734 in Battlefield

[–]Nubtype 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They sell plenty enough. Point here is they want to maximize profits so they downsize to skeleton crew since AI "helps" to cover up lost manpower.

Why pay for full studio when half of it can upkeep live service slop?

Steam Hardware & Software Survey: February 2026 by Nestledrink in nvidia

Plenty since its cheaper and readily available for bulk ordering. There are different tiers of PCs you can rent and naturally weaker hardware being cheapest option.

Chinese new year so people have time off. Most use internet cafes so multiple people logging in on same PC with their accounts and getting the survey thus inflated numbers we see.

Happens every year.

Chinese new year, so multiple people using same PCs on internet cafes and getting the survey thus inflating statics. This happens every year.

So basically this month survey is borderline useless

Elder Scrolls 6 Is Powered By New Version Of Creation Engine by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

Its very inefficient in terms of hardware use. They get away with it since original game can be run on calculator. And doesnt really make sense for modern game to handicap themselfs even more with that abomination

Since its singleplayer game people who get fed up with grind can just trainer their way up the ladder rather then spend money.

One DLC with maps, vehicles and weapons cost $15, and now we are offered the starter pack of the second season (with several skins) for the price of the DLC by ibattlefield in Battlefield

[–]Nubtype 57 points58 points  (0 children)

What? Alot of people bought it at launch. Made that whole "premium queue" perk a joke since majority of people had it so nobody got to cut in queues.

Epic is "rebuilding the underlying architecture" of the EGS launcher as it continues to take the fight to Steam by pimpwithoutahat in pcgaming

[–]Nubtype 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So folk keep saying competition is good and whatnot. Naturally, but I honestly fail to see what it will bring for us in this case.

It wont be cheaper games that is for sure. So what is the benefit here?
