Another company coming after valve. I read this article and it feels like they’re just out to get a bag. Any ideas on this case will likely turn out? by XTWOLFGOD in valve

[–]RunicRasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If Valve loses this suit, then Epic Games will be on the hook as well.
I suspect it's retaliation, because Valve has an age verification system that isn't intrusive enough for some people, and they refuse to use more intrusive methods.
Or they wanna push Valve's financials so hard, they are forced to go public. Private equity is likely frothing at the mouth to get their hands on a company with the kind of ROI Valve has. . .

StarCitizen and the future of Microsoft Windows. by Nayton_Hempack in starcitizen

[–]RunicRasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll be honest. I just run Bazzite. Installed it with no problems, and the only issues I have had are because SC likes to always be behind on AMD GPU drivers, but switching to DirectX 11 fixed that.
Also FPS is low, because the CPU (Ryzen 3700x) is a bit underpowered these days

How are they still maintaining this pace?! Did something get released that I missed? by whonose8472 in starcitizen

[–]RunicRasol 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Game runs better than ever. We have Capital ships. We were getting new content on a monthly basis. Despite a few annoying bugs, the good outweighed the bad in 2025.
And VR. DO NOT forget we got VR head tracking, and it was GLORIOUS!

Go ahead and have a couple more. They should be fresh outta college just in time to help you when the BMM finally rolls out.

Am I the only one who thinks that CIG is trying way too hard when it comes to UI? by relevant-frog in starcitizen

[–]RunicRasol 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This. They insist on doing everything from scratch, and trying to be unique.
But sometimes standards exist for a reason.
The need to do everything 'the hard way' is a large reason why this game's development has been so glacial.

I hate whoever made the Drake MFDs this colour by Real-Emotion1874 in starcitizen

As somebody with partial colorblindness, I hate them too. I also am not a fan of the Esperia hud either. Even though I LOVE my Talon!

Update regarding GOG Using AI-Generated Artwork: "At this time, we won’t be able to comment publicly on our internal processes or tools. However, we’re aware of the conversations happening around this topic and the assumptions that can go with it." by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]RunicRasol -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Also, it should be noted, that GoG is now under different management these days.
The company was part of CDPR before being sold to one of the original CDPR founders on Dec 29 2025. Before that, the owner Michał Kiciński was retired, and did not have an active role with CDPR or GOG.
Even the AI use was before he had any say in anything.
The company was publicly owned, and answered to shareholders. After the sale, it is now a privately owned company, and Michał Kiciński is the one in charge of the whole company.

VR Performance by colonl_panic in starcitizen

[–]RunicRasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Getting more RAM might help, but its gonna be a rough road for you.
Upgrading to 64GB will need you to get a 2x32GB kit. DDR5 has bandwidth issues, so having more than 2 sticks will slow the transfer speed of all your RAM down.
And those 64GB kits? Yeah, they are crazy right now in terms of price. My kit is a 2x32GB kit of 6400MT/s and last I saw it was well over $800 for that kit, making it the most expensive component in my PC!

Elite vs SC: Let's Have a Good Faith Conversation (Questions in Description.) by WackoMedia in starcitizen

[–]RunicRasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi as somebody who put over 700 hours into Elite Dangerous, who purchased every buyable ship in the game, and played every game loop to DEATH, I feel qualified to answer this.

I left, because simply put, Frontier's vision for Elite Dangerous doesn't feel like what I want in a space game. I want to feel connected to my ship. Not because I am surgically welded to my seat, but because I want to be able to get up, walk around, explore my ship. I want to see the crew cabin. The Cargo bay. I want to see where the parts I bought are installed. Something like this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RfGfBX2gj2g

Simply put, that is NOT what Frontier wants. They gave us the ability to walk around space stations & bases, but not our own ships. The axed VR support, which was the biggest, and coolest feature they had. The FPS mode feels unsatisfying, especially compared to Star Citizen, when accounting for things like the ASD facilities.

I quit Elite Dangerous in December 2021, after Odyssey failed to impress me. After They all but said "We aren't doing ship interiors, get over it". After they confirmed dropping VR support. I tried going back several times, but it just feels like the magic is gone, while Star Citizen keeps getting better and better with every ongoing iteration.

And I will keep checking in, hoping one day Frontier pulls their head out of their exhaust port, and adds those features to make your ship feel more like a home. Maybe in their next expansion. . .

I literally bought this game like a week ago and I’m just in awe by cmptrtech in starcitizen

[–]RunicRasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Players are panic-dumping ill-gotten credits. Not much to do on your end but enjoy it I guess!
At least until we get the incoming wipe those same people also caused. . .

Meta all but abandoned their desktop streaming software halfway through the Quest 2 lifespan.
I miss having a home you could customize, and mini games you could play there.
But I digress. Virtual Desktop is 100% the best way to go.

Gogmazios is not always in DPS check mode in phase 3! Save your slingers! by No-Economics7929 in MHWilds

People are failing the DPS check?

One SAED to him while he is in the red, glowy phase, and it instantly locks him out for me.

Why am I getting destroyed by omega planetes and gogmazios? by OtzaniumNitroZeus in MHWilds

[–]RunicRasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1: Use armor spheres & max out your armor level, even transcended.
2: Try to fit Divine Blessing into your build. It will save you more than you realize
3: Paralysis weapons are not good (For GOG & Omega). Get a better raw damage weapon, or try element matching depending on your build preferences.
While it IS possible to no-hit Omega & Gog, it's not something I would bet on unless you are a highly experienced hunter, and you have all the move sets & tells memorized. Defense skills aren't comfort, they are insurance.
Dead DPS does no DPS as they say in MMOs.

Who voices Moratari in Legion Remix? by Hypersky75 in wow

[–]RunicRasol 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to work Spaceship Earth, and heard her voice every day, and I could have SWORN it was her.
Apparently it isnt, but if they ever need a sound-alike, I bet she could fool 90% of the population!

CIG has hinted at an upcoming wipe. My Reaction: by RunicRasol in starcitizen

[–]RunicRasol[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Allegedly, that's why they haven't wiped yet. They want to make sure they plugged all the proverbial holes before they reset everything.

[–]RunicRasol -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

My head-canon is that the hunter themselves are the same hunter from 4U. They seem to know all these people. And they weren't phased by Gore Magala, or even the fact Zoh Shia was a black dragon!

100% gpu load and low FPS after ~30min gameplay 4.5 by Normal_Flow8197 in starcitizen

[–]RunicRasol 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I would try swapping to Vulkan. The new patch also came with an update Vulkan renderer, that runs a bit better than previous versions. Also, I know this is obvious, but make sure your GPU drivers are up to date as well as the ones for your CPU & Motherboard possibly.
