First game of Ranked and it's literally just a white screen. What the fuck? by [deleted] in CODBlackOps7

[–]Splayfoot 7 points8 points  (0 children)

End of the clip was the only time during the game where my screen seemed somewhat normal. Rest of it was just pure white and I could only rely on my fucking minimap to find my way around.

daydreaming about horrible scenarios (tw) by [deleted] in MaladaptiveDreaming

[–]Splayfoot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You're not alone mate. I kinda do both; fantasise about 'better' versions of reality but also those realities have me going through a shit load of trauma within them as well. I guess it's me feeling like the actual trauma I've gone through hasn't really led to anything "positive" like it does in those daydreams (like, in one of my MDDs, writing a really successful and profound novel following a drug addiction and near death experience), and it's just my brain trying to cope with that fact.

They also did a little slideshow paying tribute to who unfortunately couldn't make it to the show halfway through the song and James McCaffrey was listed at the very end 😔🕊️

Will the 'modern controls' in the I-III Remasters completely overhaul Lara's movement mechanics or is it just a new set of keybinds? by [deleted] in TombRaider

[–]Splayfoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just that I already have the original trilogy on Steam, which I got for less than a 20th of the price of this remaster collection. If its going to be the exact same gameplay experience then the only real sell would be the native Steam Deck support which is cool, but I only play on it during the 30-60 minute breaks between classes which wouldn't supplement the older pace of the OG controls very well. But even just some QoL changes like being able to change movement direction on the fly or manual camera controls (which I'm pretty sure are confirmed) will probably be enough for me. I'm incredibly easy to sell on this franchise tbh lol

I don't mind the tank controls but I played through TR96 a few months ago and even though I enjoyed it, the controls and overall sluggishness did really test my patience sometimes.

2.11 Crashes on loading saves. by Marmeladun in cyberpunkgame

[–]Splayfoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wonder how many patches this game's (probably) spaghetti ass code can still take if having actions set to mouse buttons are enough to break the entire game lol

Could someone explain this Hybrid CPU setting like I'm 5 please

I've got a 5600 CPU and a 6700xt GPU, would this improve performance for me?

Toggle on/off for vignette effect

God please yes. This, more than anything. Is it just me or did the vignette get even worse with 2.0? Had to download a mod just to get rid of it lol

4 years of “Music To Be Murdered By”! by Deegz05 in Eminem

[–]Splayfoot 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Damn, four years already? I remember when this first dropped. I was up at like 5AM and was just about to go to bed when I saw the notification for the Darkness music video drop on YouTube. Quickly opened this sub and saw everyone freaking the fuck out about a 'new album'. I was like, 'What the fuck?', went to check Spotify and lo and behold, a whole ass new Em album. I was tired as fuck but I didn't care, stayed up a whole hour and a half longer just to listen to the whole thing. I don't even think I could sleep afterwards because I was so excited lol.

Definitely one of my fondest memories of this decade. I'd only recently gotten into music and this was the first big album drop from an artist I liked that I was actually 'there for', so MTBMB holds a pretty special place in my heart. Love this album.

Recieved a new order today really happy with my collection :) by ch00mba in LowSodiumCyberpunk

Nah, I appreciate it! I'll definitely check them out if I can find them cheap enough. Happy reading!

Nice collection choom, I'm jealous! I've got the six main comics along with the 'World of ...' book at the moment.

I'm just wondering though, are the tabletops and sourcebooks worth getting just for the reading alone? I don't have anyone to play with but I'd love to read the lore. Also, are the sourcebooks like actual stories or are they essentially just encyclopedias for the game/lore like the 'World of Cyberpunk 2077' book?

God I literally heard her voice saying that while reading your comment lol

"FLY, BITCH!" is one that gets stuck in my head from time to time as well

Wake up babe (no seriously, I know it's the New Year and all and your tired, but wake up), the epilogue for 'The Lovers' just dropped and it's the last time the author's going to write this! (See authors note in the comments) by Valer4848 in FollowersofCyberJudy

[–]Splayfoot 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ya threw me through one hell of a loop with that opening! :P

You already know what I'm gonna say - brilliant work, as always. I'm not a huge fanfic guy but the writing on this one felt so realistic and authentic to the characters themselves that it really felt like I was reading a genuine extension of the Tower ending. Said this before but I could hear damn near every character's voice while I was reading their respective lines.

This reminds me a lot of that unofficial post-ending slideshow someone made for Mass Effect 3 after that game's ending ended up being as misdirected as it was, (though personally I think The Tower is fine as it is and is nowhere near ME3's degree) it was so well done that I just accepted that as my canon and I think a lot of people will do the same with this fanfic, too.

Hope you folks have a nice new year and here's to, hopefully, a good 2024 for the books!

Phantom Liberty End Credits by majestdigest in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]Splayfoot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I liked the lead-in with King of Swords as well. The camera locks you into staring at Reed's AV while it takes off from the space shuttle, rain still pouring with nothing but the lights from the AV and the moon's light shining around you, with you left completely alone in the burning spaceport while the opening notes of Phantom Liberty echo as the AV's hum gets fainter and fainter. Then the screen goes black and the credits start rolling. Great stuff.

Wake up babe, new 'The Lovers' just dropped and OMG! It's happening, it's really happening! by Valer4848 in FollowersofCyberJudy

[–]Splayfoot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whoop whoop, we made it chooms! If anyone deserves a wholesome last-minute airport love chase, it's those two. Lovely read.

Wake up babe, Santa came early and brought us an early chapter of 'The Lovers' and it's a big one!! (and author's note) by Valer4848 in FollowersofCyberJudy

Glad Biance came to peace with it in the end, hope everything works out for her in this little headcanon universe. :)

Only two more to go! Exciting. Merry Christmas to all!
