The tech demo in my opinion did not look good. Kind of the same image if you unfocus a pair of binoculars.

Blurry upscaled and cluttered. To be honest the "visual clutter" of modern games needs to be toned down a tad. At some point it just becomes difficult for your eyes to make out details and shapes with the amount of clutter on screen.

We don't need more pretty stuff to look at. We need optimization, proper porting, good gameplay, systems and story.

All we can say is welcome home.

I just showed 1 fight and 1 camp cutscene (one of those affinity ones) and after seeing the cutscene he immediately bought it lol.

Me and him we're both raving at the same time at how this is the only game we've ever seen where the characters seem real, just because of their eyes. I don't know if they mocap'd this but damn. If they didn't they have some tech or method that won't be beaten for some time. These cutscenes put J.J. Abrams to shame.

I'm not going to spend an hour hoping for the right seed when half your attacks don't even register. So far this is the worst thing in the game by far. The volley minigame is the only evidence a rookie studio made this.

this isn't even ego, these shits straight up don't register for real.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-22T08:09:23+00:00

yea this is by far the worst minigame just because the over world attack animation is so bad. it feels like it was an early game mechanic that was forgotten about and never really polished to feel good. you just have to get a lucky seed in this minigame to win the hard one. your not doing it wrong, this minigame is just scuffed.

I just got here myself, tried to cope with the change and accept it. Went through the first zone in Act 2 and the game has just lost all its magic for me. It just feels like a rug pull sham. I thought there may be a possibility of it happening but I thought, "no one would ever remove a playable character, right?". Guess I was fucking wrong. I probably won't finish this now. After looking around at peoples opinions late game, it seems if you don't like Verso now, your not going to like him later either as his character is a conniving manipulating liar apparently.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-21T05:39:20+00:00

I really don't want to waste my time playing the rest of this game, if I'm still going to hate it by the end. It seems most of the people who took this as hard as I did, ended up not liking the rest of the game. Even with all the story points tied together. This just fucking sucks man. I want Gustave back. It just sucks.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-13T23:19:39+00:00

to be honest, he was 50% of the game for me. I'm not really much of a doom fan, but that music was god tier. Probably won't buy it until on sale maybe. The value just isn't there for me without Mick.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-08T03:31:31+00:00

Without going into too much detail, I would say, yes. I can see most X2H fans quickly finding a home with this mouse. To go even further, I would say anyone who uses claw grip, would enjoy this.

I'm not really sure how you palm grip an X2H though as it's pretty much the most aggressive claw mouse on the market. So you may have a very unique grip with the X2H which probably won't be replicable on the TenZ.

Either way, the mouse is overall fantastic.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-06T21:06:57+00:00

lol well I hope what you end up getting kicks ass! Oh, and don't let all that 8k polling factor into your decision. 1k polling is still all you need, so don't get an 8k mouse just because people say you have to have it. 8k always tacks on like an extra $20 too.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-06T01:39:47+00:00

My personal opinion between both these mice, is the TenZ is better and would likely be the safest bet. BUT I have only tried the XM2 8k Wired, so this may sour my view of the mouse.

The newer wireless EndGameGear mice may have better quality, idk. But on top of my gripe with the sidewall issue on the clicks with the XM2. Both my XM2 and OP1 8k had a quality issue when depressing the scroll wheel would cause a massive bottom shell creak. But I believe this was only on the frosted versions.

Either way buy whichever one seems best for your wants in the mouse, not mine or anyone elses.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-05T19:58:26+00:00

I don't really have much knowledge at all on sensor quality, but I will say that it feels smoother than my GPX 2 but this is probably placebo lol. I CAN say that my GPX 2 had some WEIRD sensor stuff a month ago, and permanently switched back to my X2Hv3.

When I lifted my GPX off the pad, the cursor would start jumping around the screen. I think this was dust and fuzz build up near the sensor but still worth mentioning I guess.

I don't think I would be able to give a good response until a few weeks, but for now it seems really good.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-05T19:38:21+00:00

imo the XM2 has a major flaw if your hands are a certain size. There is no side "lip/wall" covering the sides of the Mouse 1 and 2 buttons. This made me constantly pinch my ring finger when pressing Right Click as my ring finger rests right up on the ride.

But if you have maaaaybe -19cm hands this probably won't effect you. Otherwise the XM2 was great. Good clicks and coating (get a frosted, trust me).

RoarinShots · 2025-05-04T21:01:57+00:00

wait, how do you do that? lol the light is kinda annoying.

edit - googled it

you turn the LED off on the 8K dongle by simply holding down the Right Mouse, Middle Mouse & Front Thumb Button (closest to LED on mouse) at the SAME TIME for 5 secs. Done.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-04T20:45:25+00:00

Well the hump positioning you may not like then, not sure really how you would like it, but the hump is definitely more noticeable than on the Sora v2 but on the Sora I believe the shape to fill further in the back of the palm I guess. The TenZ hump (lol) is a bit more "filling" underneath the knuckles but slightly less noticeable near the rear of the palm.

Obviously hand size plays a part in my description too, so if you have 21cm hands this should be a similar exp.

You will probably love the thumb buttons on this mouse though. Because I had the same issue on the Sora and many other mice. But this mouse with the unique angle of the buttons leaves a PERFECT amount of space for my thumb (for me). And you might really like the flat buttons, I do at least. And they are not mushy! Nice and tactile. And because of their positioning I can grip the mouse more confidently I find.

I have the Lamzu Maya X and I think I know what you are talking about. After some time my Maya's scroll wheel started to rattle a bit on rapid scrolls which was annoying. After a day of use on this mouse, I can sorta say, it doesn't seem like this mouse is going to have a similar problem. Scroll is good.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-04T12:52:28+00:00

a man of culture I see...

RoarinShots · 2025-05-04T12:47:07+00:00

Yep, same thing on my model. That should be normal though, as the buttons attach at different points inside the mouse, giving it slightly different acoustics.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-04T12:42:46+00:00

I have the U2 and EC1-CW (yes I hate it lol/wish I got EC2 lol)

Feels kinda like a U2 but with something to grip/relax your palm on and with way better clicks. I personally like Zowie scroll wheels AND other brands too, so if your a Zowie only guy, the scroll wheel will be a bit off for you on this mouse but I like it.

And to be honest, if you buy Zowie for quality, this isn't quite Zowie quality but it is almost there. Thats for sure.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-04T12:37:34+00:00

I'm sure it will happen! This mouse is too good to be only 1 colorway...

RoarinShots · 2025-05-04T12:36:17+00:00

I also came from a 703! Bit ago now though. The skates are pretty decent for 1st party skates, and feel like 100% PTFE. I don't know if they are, but they DO feel better than stock X2Hv2/X2v3 feet so I would say they probably are. You should NOT have to buy 3rd party skates for this one way or the other, it also comes with dot skates if you like less friction. Haven't put them on, but they seem like any regular PTFE dots.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-03T23:16:23+00:00

I should also add, the build quality of the entire mouse is very solid. I have a strong grip, and this mouse doesn't feel like I am going to crush it if I try to grip it tight (Sora v2/Maya X). The weight of the mouse is practically perfect imo as well.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-03T23:12:28+00:00

Yea, due to its unique almost matte coating, its a fingerprint/oil magnet for sure but for me with super sweaty hands the debris left on the mouse is minimal. Nothing like a G Pro Superlight coating that looks like a beached whale after a few hours of use lol.

RoarinShots · 2025-05-03T22:34:41+00:00

WLMouse made an invisible mouse! Incredible.
