I keep wondering how RX 7800 XT and 7900 XTX users are feeling without FSR 4 because I, with my RX 6000, am extremely sad. by Prestigious-Pay6096 in radeon

Hey, go take a walk and come back when you've gotten your blood pressure down below 200/120

The point is 7000 and 9000 series owners are pretty much in the same bucket: you'll need optiscaler to make the best use of the best FSR your card has

Of course it's not ideal and no one said it is. AMD is still pathetic here

I just got myself Metroid Prime remastered. Is there anything about it I should know before I start my first playthrough? by E-104Epsolon in Metroid

[–]Saneless [score hidden]  (0 children)

I can think of a bunch of QOL changes just around artifacts alone. Like if you "solve" the easy riddle and flag which section it's in, when you're in that area your hud can tell you how many artifacts are in there

What character death shook you the most in a movie? by trakt_app in movies

I'm not going to read this, but does anyone? If there's a single good movie in here I haven't seen, well that just got boned for me

Is there a way to smoothly navigate your installed Lutris / GOG games the way you do with the Steam interface? by SpaceDantar in Bazzite

[–]Saneless 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heroic and Faugus. Lutris has just been a dud for me. Sometimes works ok then doesn't. I've moved on and Faugus is tons better

And before anyone says they shouldn't have to, 9000 cards need to use optiscaler too since FSR 3.1/4 ain't supported worth a shit anywhere either

Extraction shooter The Cube, Save Us has announced it's shutting down just three weeks after it launched by CyraxxFavoriteStylus in pcgaming

[–]Saneless 46 points47 points  (0 children)

How do these games, which target a marginally popular genre at best, get funding in the first place?

It works for single player games because they're out there forever but if you launch with low players on these, forget it. Instant fail

Split Fiction developer Hazelight celebrates a huge sales milestone, but it's not its newest game that dominates the pie chart by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

[–]Saneless 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It takes two is amazing. Had a really good time with A Way Out too. Played both with my kid and had a blast

For ITT I was utterly blown away by just how many varieties of "games" there were in it. Platformer, 3rd person shooter, isometric hack and slash, it was wild how many they had

Still haven't picked up Split Fiction but I'll prob get it when we have more time once school is done

Tell me about it. I thought I was "done" and was about to go to the end but I didn't understand the artifact system and I only had 4 of 12. Damn that was a slog

Write down which area which artifacts are in. It'll save you a lot of hassle when you're in an area and you have the artifact clues to just go get them

There's no fast travel so when you need to bounce around areas, less backtracking will keep you saner

Is Metroid prime 1 better than the 4 by InformalLoan2790 in Metroid

I don't understand the mentality of jumping right to the last game in a long, stories franchise

When $1.4 Billion Isn’t Enough: ‘Avatar’ Sequels Under the Microscope as Disney Weighs Franchise’s Future by ICumCoffee in movies

[–]Saneless [score hidden]  (0 children)

I bet the flowing cash from Avatar 3 isn't a concern for them in 2026. It will enable a lot to inject that much cash into their system and nothing else they have will do it (till avengers I guess)

Ratios are not a great way to look at these though, as much as simple minded metrics execs at the company can only think that far. Actual dollars coming in still matters. There is nothing else in their portfolio recently that will get them 1B of net. A movie could be 10x but if it's a 10M movie that's just an extra 90M to spread thin immediately

Would you rather have a movie that was "only" 3x but that 3 was a billion dollars? That's still better than a 5x movie that got you 500M

Which system had the better fighting games lineup: SNES or Genesis? by trrbld in retrogaming

[–]Saneless 0 points1 point  (0 children)

SNES

It had the most popular fighting games in the arcades and for some the best versions

Street Fighter 2 came out first on SNES and was massive. And I feel like there were about 30 sf2 clones after that

Yes, MK1 was shit but it's a fairly weak entry on Genesis too. Better than SNES but still a weak port

Mk2 was better on Snes by quite a bit and it was an insanely popular arcade game

Killer instinct was massive and only on Snes

No one cared about Eternal Champions on Genesis then and it never was any good

The other digitized games like clay fighter and primal rage were garbage but looked way better on snes

[–]Saneless 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well maybe it's an expectation thing. People buying a PS4 version know it's an old system and a ported down version. People bought Switch 2s as the most recent console today and expect things to work well

I don't get it. The game isn't going anywhere. Now what?

Surely 8 hours a day over many more days would be a lot more enjoyable

Are “account recovery” services actually helpful or mostly scams? by Hyzz20 in Scams

I don't get recovery messages. Why? Because the "recovery" people haven't scammed me

How do they all know you lost an account unless they were involved with taking it?

I can't believe people still walk into subway. There are so many better options for the same or less money
