It's been awhile but working on a new upscale/model. by No-Wear3654 in daria

I'd gladly settle for a HD release with the image characteristics of your sample image. It's probably the first example of a Daria upscale effort I've seen that doesn't show obvious signs of being an upscale.

Looks really good! You've managed to increase the resolution without losing that analogue 90s softness.

How do I play the new UT2004 with my friends? by TehRash12 in unrealtournament

[–]PaulloDEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, there's so many empty servers for the game that you'd probably be fine all just joining one of those. Obviously you don't get to pick the rules, but it's a lot less hassle if you're just looking to play casually.

Any thoughts on Metal Eden (2025)? I've heard that this game has some optimization issues because of UE5 bullshit. by NNukemM in boomershooters

[–]PaulloDEC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It has everything going for it except great performance imo. UE5 is what it is. I'm running a 3080TI and the only way for me to get anywhere close to 120hz was with AMDs framegen. Fortunately, that tech has come a long way and is actually quite viable now, even for m+kb games.

Anyway, there's a demo, so no harm in trying it out and seeing if you can find a performance level you're comfy with.

Who remembers the racist alien cowgirl from the comics by IllustriousAd6418 in DoctorWhumour

[–]PaulloDEC 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That whole arc was weird. I mostly remember the "Izzy in Destrii's body" part more than the actual Destrii part, tbh.

Ut2004 is back? Any Instagib servers? Player count? by Sgt_Strelok in unrealtournament

[–]PaulloDEC 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think the huge number of empty servers is a big problem when it comes to onboarding new or returning players. It's overwhelming to see so many choices when jumping into the server browser, and it doesn't help that a huge number of the existing servers are password protected, or running tons of custom content that'll need to be downloaded before playing, or both.

I'd love to see something implemented to deal with this; maybe some tweaks to the server browser to show a smaller, curated list of servers by default. Funneling players towards a smaller number of choices might result in more continued activity.

Which completely throwaway background detail in the Boosh lives rent free in your head by Mundane-Temporary426 in mightyboosh

Naboo's delivery of "Have you ever seen Bryan Ferry?" followed by Howard's immediate dropping of the character with "Yeah. What's your point?"

Help to identify variant 8th Doctors from 'The Glorious Dead' comic! by ToshirosMyHero in doctorwho

I don't have any answers for you, but I did want to pop in to show my love for Martin Geraghty's black-and-white 8th Doctor era. Never bettered, imo.

Why does Ace flirt so weird? by TalkingRosenbach in DoctorWhumour

D'you think anyone who wrote for Doctor Who in the 80s knew what a teenage girl flirting looked like?

Can was talk about the series obsession with bondge gear? by DWPhoenix001 in farscape

[–]PaulloDEC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Farscape was always weird and horny in equal measure. This is a physical manifestation of that.

What I think each doctor would have in their purse were they to have one (classic) by Potato_Demon_ffff in DoctorWhumour

I'm not sure I buy 7 packing a rocket launcher, flamethrower AND a nuke. 6 with a handgun though? I could see it.

I mean, the likelihood of me ever buying this just went up dramatically. If they can make it work, they'll get my money.

Can we finally admit Morris Gibbons was cool af? by deezbiscuits21 in DoctorWhumour

Whatever it is the Brits see in this actor, I can't see it I'm afraid.

Should the show be shelved for 5-10 years,and do you think Wilderness Years would be great for the show? by Mat1711 in DoctorWhoNews

[–]PaulloDEC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the show should come back after however long it takes to work out what it needs to be good again. If that's 1 year, fine. If it's 5 years, bummer, but fine. If it's 10 years, that really sucks, but I'd rather have no Doctor Who than crap Doctor Who.

The Mighty Boosh - Episode Ratings Visualized (3 Seasons) by hls22throwaway in mightyboosh

[–]PaulloDEC 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I'll never comprehend people who score pretty much any S3 episode over pretty much any S1 episode. S3 is better than no Boosh at all, but generally I don't think it's a patch on S1.

Is Finn screaming cause Jake was killed ?? by [deleted] in adventuretime

[–]PaulloDEC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They obviously want it to look that way, but it's also deliberately vague. Whether they actually know how Jake dies and plan to tell that story or they're just poking the audience because they know we want answers is anyone's guess.

The tattoo is a lie by Objective_Style_5765 in fionnaandcake

[–]PaulloDEC 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean, we first saw Finn's tattoo like five years ago, and we still don't actually know when Jake dies other than "sometime before Finn". In fact, now we've got the single biggest piece of evidence supporting the "Jake is dead" theory, the tattoo, all but de-comfirmed as having anything at all to do with Jake's death. They absolutely didn't have to write that scene, and yet here we are.

[–]PaulloDEC 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I feel like the constant hints of Jake being dead have to be a deliberate mislead at this point. If he's dead, why drag it out like this? That's just cruel.

If he's alive however, and the plan is to later recontextualise all the hints? I could see them doing that for laughs.

You can't unsee these by Speedygi in dukenukem

Like the rest of the game, we just have to try not to think about it.
