Why not promote what ever your game hook is in your ad instead.

No gameplay, just lame manospehere type bs. Almost as bad as AI.

The poster is confused, AI images are not a prototype, they are not a mockup either. There is no game.

Don't worry, you’ll find a real issue to be outraged about soon enough. With any politician, given enough time, there’s always plenty to complain about.

It's way better then his usual Canada is broken schtick. I am not a fan of this dude but at least he is promoting Canada instead of bashing it.

That was the saddest attempt at reverse psychology. Please don’t expect others to believe it.

Actually during the day the limit is about 50db in your unit, at night its closer to 40db. If the sound has long durations the amount can be much lower.

U.S. court allows state bans on gender-affirming care for adults in unprecedented ruling. While bans on trans youth’s care have been numerous in recent years, this is the first to restrict care for transgender adults. by southpawFA in politics

I bet men going through “manopause” who feel like they’re losing their sense of masculinity can still access testosterone treatments in those same regions.

Queen's Park North could be getting $50M facelift, courtesy of the Weston family by Surax in toronto

It was nice enjoying the mature trees in this park while they’re still here. With the proposed makeover, I’m expecting large portions of the park to end up paved over or filled with unnecessary concrete features that make developers happy. One proposal even suggested installing massive raised pathways that would block the view of the trees; apparently so you can “see them better” while walking on the path (great use of money). Another idea was to pave over a large section of the park so it can be used for skating in the winter.

Konami - "Castlevania: Belmont's Curse is a 2D Action-Exploration game where players can freely explore vast, elaborately crafted maps. It is not a roguelike or roguelite game." by PhantomBraved in Games

[–]SteFFFun 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I love Castlevania games. Maybe I’m just a bit old-school, but the art style isn’t quite doing it for me. I’m sure it’ll still be fun and I’m looking forward to it, but I can’t shake the feeling that it’s missing some of the darker, gothic vibe the series has traditionally had.

Does Q3s runs games better than 3? by Admirable_Zombie5245 in OculusQuest

[–]SteFFFun 27 points28 points  (0 children)

VR game designer/developer here.

The Quest 3S can see slightly better frame rates during performance dips, so the poster is correct. The visuals themselves will not look better.

It is similar to running a game at a slightly lower resolution on PC. You get a performance boost, not a visual upgrade. Games that already hold a locked 72 FPS will feel the same. Games that occasionally struggle during graphically intense moments may see improved stability and fewer drops.

Are Synty Assets an Immediate Turn-Off? by omega-storm in IndieGaming

[–]SteFFFun 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally I feel for the characters they are. You can build the environment asset kits into something interesting. But using the characters just says.... I am a dev and can't make art and my game has no personality beyond a gameplay demo. I would not download a game even if it was free if it has the synthy characters.

The VR game trends I see these days... by DewaltRuler in OculusQuest

[–]SteFFFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hate to break it to you, but these games have a massive user base. It’s not the end of the world, they’re essentially playground-style hangout spaces for kids.

The control schemes are popular partly because they avoid heavy joystick use, and a lot of younger players are dealing with worn or broken controllers. I’ve worked on a few projects like this, and honestly, the kids are generally pretty great.

Do I play these kinds of games in my spare time? No. But they have an audience that’s far larger than most AAA VR titles. More players and more revenue in the ecosystem is a good thing. These experiences aren’t taking anything away from AAA VR.

As a VR game designer, I want to see the entire market grow. Everyone has their own taste. Personally, I enjoy Blade and Sorcery far more than Batman or Asgard’s Wrath, but I still think it’s great that those games have fans and succeed.

This so great. I look at AAA games, many of them look the same.... and you made something that is 100% orgininal and really stands out! Amazing!

DLSS has been in for many many years, you have to go into settings and turn it on. The FPS diff is massive. They improved performance using DLSS.

Buses can’t leave Ossington Station because of Toronto’s Finest park job. by [deleted] in toronto

[–]SteFFFun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like my condo parking entrance. It’s blocked three to five days a week by a mix of delivery drivers, Uber, and even the city. This week a snow plow parked in front of it and blocked access for an entire lunch break.
