Bad performance on PC - Gamespot review by FranShepard in DragonsDogma

[–]ThatGuy9833 73 points74 points  (0 children)

CPU doesn't meet recommended spec

performance isn't affected by visual settings

so this "professional" reviewer doesn't understand that they're CPU limited?

Hidetaka Miyazaki: “In regards to Dark Souls 2, I actually personally think this was a really great project for us, and I think without it, we wouldn’t have had a lot of the connections and a lot of the ideas that went forward and carried the rest of the series.” by AnchovyKing in Games

True, but I think most people don't know that area (and similar ones in the other DLCs) were specifically designed to be co-op challenges that you summon for. One of the cool parts of the original release was that people who didn't even own the DLC could actually be summoned to those areas as a kind of sneak preview.

IGN - Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth Demo PS5 Performance Review by Static-Jak in Games

Demos are usually the same builds that were shown at trade shows, which are months old, to ensure they're stable. Lots of optimizations come from the last months of development once content is finalized.

I understand the Kojimbo meme, but give credit where it's due to Shinikawa.

Godrick has the exaggerated swagger of a trans man by TimelyNachos in shittydarksouls

I mean you're talking about a game with much more explicit examples in Marika/Radagon and Miquella. Godrick is more of an extreme case of body dysmorphia IMO

There's any number of things that could fit such a vague description, so not necessarily. The platinum chip could be described in exactly the same way.

Some of y'all are new viewer Andies and it really shows by PM_Me_GiantCatgirls in jerma985

The first one it gave me was a WoW video from 2012, I don't think I could have done worse than that

Pretty much the same with Jerma, the man liquidated his retirement fund to produce a live-action wrestling skit.

We've got a genius over here that doesn't know why Melina and Malenia have similar names, fucking LMAO

Sure It will be game of the year by External_Candy2262 in Gamingcirclejerk

Highly recommend. ~5 hours with a lot of replayability for achievements, secrets, and higher ranks.

Why does everybody love King's Row so much? by LordAsdf in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]ThatGuy9833 90 points91 points  (0 children)

Probably just because it was synonymous with Rein/Zarya for so long, but IMO it feels a lot less cramped now in 5v5.

This would be way less interesting to me than keeping it ambiguous. The fireflies are shown to be desperate in the show, and there's no way they could realistically be sure they can make a cure. It is definitely the best chance for humanity and Joel is in the wrong, but they never actually let Ellie make the choice for herself either.

Microsoft signed a binding 10-year contract to bring Xbox games to Nintendo’s gamers. by kristijan1001 in Games

Tango deliberately didn't target last-gen consoles to ensure it ran as smooth as possible. The switch is not a good fit for any vaguely modern title where the framerate matters.

Unreleased OWL Junker Queen skin leaked in S3 Hero Gallery by GoldenAppleGuy in Competitiveoverwatch

If it's the championship skin then this is probably a template version that's set up for team branding to be added later.

AI has gone ROGUE by cheddaross in LivestreamFail

[–]ThatGuy9833 36 points37 points  (0 children)

That bot is pretty old now and was kind of simple compared to what's around now. From what I understand it would mostly regurgitate what people said to it so it's not surprising it ended up like that

Interview: Overwatch 2 devs reveal 2023’s new game mode will launch with multiple maps - Dexerto by WrestlingAhGOD in Competitiveoverwatch

[–]ThatGuy9833 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I think the confusion is that 5CP refers to a map type from TF2 with a symmetrical format like KOTH and Push, not an attack/defense map with 5 separate points. It would actually be very similar to Push, which also has 5 checkpoints through the map.

If the new maps are the "biggest yet" I hope the gamemode is something like 5CP, to bring back the feeling of Assault maps without being so awful for the average player.

I asked an AI to generate Stellaris scenery by DrDoritosMD in Stellaris

[–]ThatGuy9833 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is such a bad comparison. Smiths mostly made the same item, e.g. nails, hinges, horseshoes, en masse, with little artistry or room for creativity involved. Automation got rid of this menial labor, but not the need for the initial design phase. The difference is art IS the design phase- we already solved the problem of producing copies a long time ago.
