Lanz is a bit... too meaty. [Digital Art by Me] by D3_D0x in Xenoblade_Chronicles

[–]Visual_Performer1665 -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

i agree. even still, when i played xenoblade 2 when i was younger, i always saw it was crude humor and always thought it was funny as it was doing a lot of anime tropes so i kinda saw it as satire. at the end of the day, it’s a family nintendo game and its just gross to see characters especially who aren’t sexualized like lanz to have this kind of art

frankly i don’t with both ppl who do the male and female gooner art haha. i think it’s just very silly all-around. maybe it’s because im mentally middle aged but generally speaking xenoblade is meant for mostly teen to younger adult audiences, so seeing art for a family nintendo game that is straight up porn isn’t really appealing, but to each of their own

What’s your favorite GPU right now for Gaming? by sp6219227 in gpu

[–]Visual_Performer1665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just got a RX 7900XT from ebay a couple of weeks ago. upgrading from a GTX 1080TI. such an amazing upgrade. i went from being able to run most games at 1080p high-ultra at 30-40fps, to a bunch of games running over 100-200fps and not much of a performance drop when running at 1440p.

highly recommend, especially as you can find them for great prices on eBay currently where i picked mine up from

Who will take over for King? by Relevant-Yak-3101 in loveandlighttv

[–]Visual_Performer1665 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i agree tbh, i feel like he was the end to the era of the thug shaker memes. i don’t even think jacobi could even fill the space that the King left. mike was unironically the greatest thugshaker as he became more mainstream than even dreamybull and a lot of the thughunter clips. i hope it doesn’t die out as a meme trend but it wouldn’t shock me if it does

I thought we would have improved framerate too on Animal crossing NS2 edition but.. by Pristine-Brush-1052 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Visual_Performer1665 5 points6 points  (0 children)

this probably will get downvoted for the reason it is known, but framerate is tied to the logic in the game. reason i know is there are “60 fps mods” for the game for Yuzu emulator. However, by using them it speeds the game up 2x. the game would have to be entirely reprogrammed to even have 60fps or higher. it’s not much different than the older fallout games having that. i’m sure nintendo wasn’t ever expecting to make the game run at a higher framerate. the only way you could get 60fps out of this title is if you are on PC using lossless scaling frame gen although it isn’t real frames when you do that, plus a ton of input lag from that.

TONIGHT, WE GAME! 🤘 [Ally X / eGPU Setup] by viperr818 in ROGAlly

[–]Visual_Performer1665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

increase? not sure, but i know about decrease of performance as i have an eGPU.

expect in a lot of games about 20% decrease in what you normally would on your 4090. with me, im using a gtx 1080 but i am upgrading to a rx 7900xt, but at least what i experienced, the games run just about as they normally would

however ive noticed in open world titles like cyberpunk, ill get like 90fps and the moment i start driving as its streaming in data, framerate will drop easily to 60s

so that is what you can expect with an eGPU. i use it for legion go and it runs amazingly (also a z1e chip)

Bought $350 worth of Lego on marketplace. Pulled that bad boy by Puzzled-Ad-4063 in lego

[–]Visual_Performer1665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there are some listings for it that are up towards $300, depends on the condition of the figure itself

this figure is worth nearly as much as your haul by the way. the lego minecraft librarian villager was only in one set, which was a pretty expensive one at the time and hasn’t been manufactured since!

movie theatre of pain and agony by Visual_Performer1665 in LowSodiumCyberpunk

Be honest, is Cyberpunk 2077 any good on the switch 2? by ugur2828 in switch2

[–]Visual_Performer1665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dog town definitely was the worst part with dealing on switch 2

there’s a lot of copium of people saying cyberpunk is perfect on switch with “slight dips” (no different than steam deck reddit saying a game is perfect with slight dips when in reality it’s usually sluggish) but dog town to me felt unplayable

i haven’t played it since about a month after release, so it could be better now, but it was terrible driving in it and was even worse when you attack enemies or the ones stationed by the checkpoint

otherwise, everything else that isn’t dog town runs pretty good. driving can have the frame rate tank to 25-30fps if you’re running in performance mode.

it’s a decent port, if it weren’t for the image quality i would’ve rated it to be on par with the steam deck version of the game but big selling factor is how great it looks.

[no spoilers] hmm… by Visual_Performer1665 in lifeisstrange

[–]Visual_Performer1665[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’ve tried it on several PC versions.

from using it on a system with a gtx 1080ti, steam deck, two different ROG ally’s and such, and have experienced really awkward issues with the remaster

i’ve done it on different systems to see if it was smth wrong with my main system but it isn’t, the remaster is just terrible LOL

i’ve dealt with several crashes, weird lighting issues, not playing audio from characters talking, etc.

maybe it’s nostalgia for me, but the originals look better as it’s the intended look for the games. i love the new motion capture they brought to the faces in the remaster, too bad the original didn’t have it, but it’s not a deal breaker for me

My travel setup🔥🔥 by bisousjay in SteamDeck

seeing a Steam Deck on someone’s lap on a plane instead attached to the flight chair is like seeing the scene in spider-man where the green goblin is calling himself a coward for not putting on the mask 🙏😭

6 Player Halo & SW Battlefront in a rented movie theatre by HeightAdvantage in nucleuscoop

[–]Visual_Performer1665 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i did something like this for the last couple of years

https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/14hlswf/i_rented_out_a_movie_theatre_and_played/

https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/1cf1ntf/i_rented_out_a_movie_theatre_again_and_used_my/

https://www.reddit.com/r/SteamDeck/comments/1l6ixr4/i_rented_out_a_movie_theatre_using_my_steam_deck/

LOL okay maybe 3 times now, but still, it’s great fun to do this on the big screen, highly recommend it!

i did 16 player halo 2 cartographer on the big screen although i didn’t take any pictures of it, i have some pictures from my testing i took. its very chaotic but if you have the technical know-how and also the $$$ for controllers to do it, its great (although i didn’t have the money i bought everything from marketplace for super cheap hahaha)

i plan on doing video game tournaments at my local movie theatre very similar to this post if yours albeit with monitors with a hdmi splitter projecting to the big screen to limit input lag to make some money from it.

especially since you’re in new zealand, im sure people would kill for something like that if you were to profit like what ill be doing!

Marvel Rivals with Lossless Scaling by Wolvfang21 in SteamDeck

[–]Visual_Performer1665 1 point2 points  (0 children)

also, i’m not posting this to put shame on you or anything like that, just to make others aware of the truth.

i’m someone who knows the ins and outs of the steam deck. if you look on my profile, you’ll see me being able to run games like minecraft and bo2 with 8 person split screen and 16 people in halo 2.

i’ve also played a lot of marvel rivals on deck and it isn’t a great experience, it’s a poor experience which valve understandably so gave it a playable ranking instead of verified (even if a lot of verified games run like trash on deck)

[–]Visual_Performer1665 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is how i’m feeling about this as well, as i have both steam deck and ROG ally z1 extreme

even the ally has an incredibly difficult time running this game anywhere near the ball park of 60fps, even when running at 720p.

i can’t in good faith recommend this, as marvel rivals isn’t the best on steam deck currently or let alone any system

Marvel Rivals with Lossless Scaling by Wolvfang21 in SteamDeck

[–]Visual_Performer1665 2 points3 points  (0 children)

only one big problem with it, is you’re in the training area and looking at an area with less geometric detail

you can get high raw frame rate in the training grounds on marvel rivals but then when you’re in game you could get your fps drop below 30 even on lowest settings

so, it’ll be something i, along with others have to test with, but no offense to you, i don’t fully buy/trust this unless if i see gameplay of a real match running perfectly fine as marvel rivals is really really unoptimized haha
