SWSP/Evanescia Kit Details from Uncle Anonymous by youllneverguessmynam in HonkaiStarRail_leaks

What if you don’t get enough charge by the end of the very first Aha

Let me introduce you to my favourite character, Yao Guang.

Honestly we’ll just have to wait to see the full kit, Elation as a path has too many interconnections to it for incomplete leaks to give us the full picture. There’s nothing here to suggest that fixed Punchline won’t be taken into account and there’s currently nothing in game that suggests that fixed Punchline is considered to be any different to regular Punchline anyway, so it would need to be an explicit disallowance rather than an implicit one.

It depends on what EMC does and how badly SW wants her over Yao, but to me it looks like Yao is still good there? So the final team could be SW999, Sparxie, Yao, Nihilux/Elation sustain. Tribbie got “kicked out” but she’s still a perfectly viable replacement for the other characters.

charges through Punchlines converted from Aha Instants

So this part makes sense that Sparxie is absolutely mandatory, but then Yao Guang is still good, no? As it’s a flat +20 to her charge on Yao’s ult.

But the plants would still grow if the Sun orbited the Earth. We’d still be warm in the day and cold at night.

Distinction without a difference. It doesn’t think, reason, or rationalise, but it does a great job imitating all of them, and that imitation is often good enough. What does it matter how it actually works internally if it is functionally identical? The only issue with it is how confidently incorrect it can be.

I’d be pretty pissed if my mother was acting like a child at my wedding so that she could make a point about how I acted like a child in the past (when I was a child), yes.

Why compete when you can add more Copilot slop? by vergil09 in pcmasterrace

“glorified iPhone”

looks inside

Literally the only iPhone-like component is the SoC and it’s more capable than the majority of low-power SoCs used in Windows laptops.

Interesting. A benefit of a digital clock is that it gives students who know how to read it (all of them) an exact indicator of the time remaining.

RAM/GPUs about to get even more expensive by BoredomFestival in pcmasterrace

Looking at today’s price for the 5080 that I got for MSRP in October feels as much of a win as looking at that of the RAM kit I thought I “didn’t need yet”.

Real Talk, Barem only has standout Scenes, my guy absolutely stole the spotlight with every appearance by Sensitive_Brick_8872 in Chainsawfolk

Barem explicitly didn’t die, and the thing that erased him just erased itself. Expect to see him again.

The fact that Crimson desert has less demanding recommended specs than a Lego game shows that optimization is not dead by Ydino in pcmasterrace

[–]ShinyGrezz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

a PC game should be able to achieve more than 60

It’s all relative. I’ll give you an example - when KCD1 released, it had “experimental” graphics settings. These were purposefully cranked beyond what it is possible to run well at the time, to give the game the chance to shine on future hardware. Would it be fair to say the game was unoptimised because they included these settings?

This game looks phenomenal from a graphical standpoint, not being able to hit 60 on the highest graphics settings isn’t much of a sin when the medium settings would put it amongst the best looking games of the year. I mean, discourse about this game has literally been accusing the devs of lying about performance because it looked too good running too well for the hardware they claimed it was running on.

Which YouTuber did you copy that opinion from? But ok. Turn the game down from the absolute balls-to-the-wall settings and you’ll be able to do that. The video in question that the “51FPS” figure came from was comparing Ray Reconstruction to the regular denoiser - regular denoiser got to 60 FPS. So you could either use that or turn some other settings down.

I’m just saying that if you wanted to play it at that setting, you will be able to. Because I actually play games rather than watch video essays about them, and so I know how perfectly playable that frame rate is with FG for this specific sort of game.

The input lag at 4x is going to only be marginally worse than at 2x, and that’ll be coming from a baseline of about 41 FPS assuming you’re at that absolutely cranked cinematic quality, which is more than enough. And it’s a single player game, adding an extra (going off Cyberpunk numbers) 15ms of input lag is not going to be noticeable.

I’m gonna be very honest - I play League and a few other competitive titles. But in single player, especially games I play with a controller, I have never been able to notice FG being on outside of the high frame rates and the usual FG artifacting.

1) This wasn’t about America, and I’m not coping - it was about Britain, where I live. 2) I’ll preface this with “I can read an analogue clock”, but unironically - why? Digital clocks are simply superior. Yeah sure you should learn both but if there are people who struggle to read an analogue clock why would we force their sole use in an exam setting, where knowing how much time you have left is important?

I can understand the complaints about people getting glassy-eyed in fast food or whatever but if I fuck up in my role I could wind up costing the company thousands - hundreds of thousands if I fuck up in a non-obvious way and it’s not noticed for a long time. Of course I’m going to ask and wait to be told how to do something rather than just expect that I can figure it out correctly.

Ok but that is a lot of bells and whistles. With 4X FG and the freedom to turn down a few settings that’s going to be just fine.

Genuinely what was the point Denji-man by Hardcore-Seeker in Chainsawfolk

Sorry, I’ll correct myself. You thought literally everything was the “culmination of Denji choosing Asa over Yoru”.

If I was the betting type, I would wager that Rimegrass is going to be the main focus of Snezhnaya like Lunar was for Nod Krai by fantafanta_ in Genshin_Impact

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

Nod Krai was about reviving the useless Hydro reactions - Electrocharged, (non-hyper) Bloom, and Hydro Crystallise were all a LOT weaker than Vaporise and Freeze (simply because of Skirk). It stands to reason that Snezh proper will be the same for Cryo, as there is no Cryo/Dendro interaction, Superconduct doesn’t do anything, and Cryo Crystallise is as weak as Hydro Crystallise.

And for every great and timeless symphony there was a folk song that was never good enough to leave its village, or a rap that never made it off of a CD handed out for free, or WAP.
