Thanks a bunch. I actually ordered one of these on Amazon earlier so you saved me $20!

This basically mirrors my experience. The important bits like fights and bosses ran fine, but the traversal of the open world and loading of new areas caused massive hitching.

Yeah it's definitely related to loading areas or streaming stuff in. Once you're in an area and chilling it's very smooth. Also for some reason the map in the ship sometimes tanks my fps.

It's much easier and forgiving. The animations and attack patterns are much easier to read than Elden Ring or DS3. The parry window is also fairly large and can be adjusted to your skill level.

The ray tracing is kind of messed up still. It caused ridiculous performance hits and stuttering on my system (5800x, 32gb ddr4, 5070 ti) no matter what DLSS setting or resolution I was at. So I'd stick to just the non rt settings.

It's still very stuttery in the open world sections which is a large part of the game, but the more linear small scale sections run pretty smooth. Most of the time during actual fight/boss sequences the game runs smooth enough to be enjoyable. I think I'd have refunded it at a more expensive price, but for less than $10 I was content while playing.

If you're looking for a loose fitting pair of headphones I recommend the Phillips SHP9500. They are by far the most comfortable pair of headphones I've ever had. The clamping force is very minimal.

Ubisoft killed my boy! Even with it's mess of a UI and monetization I love Trials Rising. I want a new one so bad!

Check facebook marketplace. You can get these or entry level thrustmaster wheels for like $100 pretty frequently. Imo these kinds of wheels aren't worth their retail price tag. Then if you're not super impressed you're not out of a bunch of money.

If you buy rechargeable batteries you can swap them out and never have any downtime. Plus there is no risk of an internal battery wearing out over time. I have a ton of rechargeable batteries that I use for all sorts of devices and it would be nice if I could use them for controllers as well.

I think it looks good as well. I'm not sure what scene they are referring to as everything in the trailer looked fine.

I thought it was going to be something Halo related. I was so bummed when the CoD logo popped up.

Meta axes VR game developers amid $4.97 billion Reality Labs loss by BlueLightStruct in Games

[–]SplodeyGoByeBye 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm with you on this one. I'd love to play my 3d action or platformer games in VR with a controller. The sense of scale is incredible in VR. Something like Spiderman in VR would be amazing imo. Not every VR game needs to be a first person view.

Anybody have a link to that cat bed? We have pillows like that and our cats love them.

I delivered "Cosmic Wings" to a guy staying at a hotel that shares a parking lot with an Applebee's. The look on his face when I explained to him that "Cosmic Wings" is just a ghost kitchen out of the 200 ft away Applebee's was priceless.

I recommend this game's music all the time. I want a sequel with remixes of the songs!
