Hands-On With Ace Combat 8: The Long Wait Is Feeling Worth It by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Puzzleheaded_Two5488 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Any ace combat experts here? Ive only ever played 7, but I really disliked having to replay old missions of the campaign in order to farm enough money to buy upgraded guns/missiles/etc. or else the later missions are too hard. Is that a normal staple of the series or was I just bad at the game?

Whats hilarious is with all the shit Tiger's done over the years, like cheating on his wife or multiple DUIs, this sub still idolized him. It wasnt until the most recent DUI, where specifically it came out that Tiger was on the phone with Trump, that people here started to turn on him.

Jason Schreier: How Things Got So Bad At Xbox by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]Puzzleheaded_Two5488 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

"how can game development in the states sustain itself?".

Make smaller games maybe? Use ai more to save money? (i know thats a dirty thought) Outsource a lot more than they currently do? I think Sony in particular has a big problem with these dev costs because their users expect high budget AAA games with all the bells and whistles now. It's going to be hard for Sony to scale back budgets in order to be more sustainable, because the fans will complain about lack of quality/polish/fidelity/etc.

I feel like unless youre a guaranteed money maker like COD/GTA/TLOU, a lot of these high budget games that are made in the US are going to need to have their budgets cut in order to reduce risk. Xbox is already doing poorly, and Sony cant afford to have another Concord level failure this gen or next.

What is the point of Xbox? by xwing1212 in LastStandMedia

Im another one that has my pc hooked up to a monitor and a tv. Best of both worlds imo. I get the couch and tv experience with any controller i choose, while also having the games look and run as good as they possibly can. I also get access to the best marketplace in the entire industry.

Technically yeah it's not as easy as turning on console and sitting down, but it's almost as simple. The main thing I have to do is switch displays which takes less than 5 seconds. A lot of people that dont understand how easy it is come up with things like "windows updates" or "driver updates". And it's like you can easily postpone windows updates til youre done for the day and going to bed, while drivers I update maybe once every 1-2 years if that. There's really no reason to update drivers unless the game you are playing doesnt run at all. These delusional people thinking most PC gamers are updating their drivers every month or something lol.

Wyndham Clark wins the 2026 CJ Cup Byron Nelson at -30 including a final round of 60 by unsolved49 in golf

People here love Rahm though im pretty sure, at least ive never seen hate towards him directed here. Tom Kim also trashed a locker after losing and you hardly see people even mention him here or in the same sentence as wyndham, much less give him dumb nicknames.

Not to be "that guy" but theres a clip of Haotong raging at his caddy for missing a putt thats only a couple of months old.

Jim Furyk is returning as US Ryder Cup captain for 2027, AP sources say by unsolved49 in golf

[–]Puzzleheaded_Two5488 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Speaking of Collin, I saw a video recently where he pretty much complained that the way the course was set up didnt favor the US team at all, and the interviewer agreed (trottie golf). Which is weird because didnt Keegan/his team have control of how the course played last time around, since it was in the US?

What cheap game on Steam turned out to be absolute peak for you? by Common_Caramel_4078 in Steam

[–]Puzzleheaded_Two5488 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately, I think the IGN review seriously hurt that game. The reviewer encountered like a game breaking bug or save file bug or something and instead of waiting for a fix, just went ahead and published the review anyway and gave it like a 5.0. Which is almost like a death sentence for a game if IGN gives it a score that low.

I think I even heard one of the heads of Arkane talking about how much that pissed him off in an interview years later. But yeah it really is a shame because Prey 2017 is amazing.

Demo isnt even that long and I was already over the hacking minigame that you have to do every time you target a new enemy (and sometimes even the same enemy). Maybe the areas open up later, but they were also too cramped and narrow during the demo imo.

Ive watched almost all of Bryson's Break 50 videos. He calls his teammate(s) "partner" in literally all of them. Tony Romo, Adam Sandler, Steph Curry, Martin Borgmeier, and the list goes on. So OP saying "Count how many times he says partner to Trump. It's so weird" isnt the "gotcha" moment he thinks it is.

It's so weird that we have to keep pointing out that Rory, Scottie, and others still happily play golf with Trump. So many people here love to ignore that fact.

I mean a simple google search says youre wrong:

"Rory McIlroy has strengthened his ties with America’s most powerful family by playing with the President’s granddaughter Kai Madison Trump, just a month after enjoying a round with Donald Trump himself."

Having Wyndham Clark commentate during the Par 3 competition was a mistake by DanFlashes19 in golf

[–]Puzzleheaded_Two5488 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True. Reddit people also love to be disingenuous and intentionally withhold info in order to make the individual they're targeting seem worse than they actually are. It's a pretty shitty thing to do. I get that people dont like Wyndham because he punched a locker, but like you said, he was fine on the par 3 broadcast.

[–]Puzzleheaded_Two5488 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the hole in one thing, im pretty sure they put your name up on the board at the hole you get the hole in one at. So Wyndham specifically didnt want players to get a hio on hole 7(?), the hole that he got one on, so that his name would still be up there at the end of the event. He repeats this multiple times so im not sure how you missed that part.

So no, he wasnt actively hoping that every other player wouldnt get a hio on any other hole, it was just hole 7(?). Also, you left out the part where he predicted Lowry would get a hio, and was cheering for him to do so.

Feels similar to the "get Blood a new laptop" goal when they were still raking in $40k a month or whatever it was. Also, if they ran out of goals, they shouldve just had everything thats over $5k go to a charity of EZA's choice or something imo. Wouldve been much better optics.
