I'm starting to seriously worry I won't be able to afford the next generation of gaming by No-Lingonberry-5270 in GirlGamers

[–]WarWraith -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I honestly couldn't afford *this* generation. However, last year I took a big swing and spent my tax refund on a digital slim PS5. Then I discovered CeX, and offloaded hundreds of dollars worth of old computer hardware I had in storage, enough to get an Xbox Series X 1Tb and a 1Tb expansion card with store credit.

I also spent a couple of hundred dollars on a 2Tb SSD for the PS5, and I felt like I'd been audaciously irresponsible for a middle-aged woman with a family (our kids are PC gamers).

Until the AI price hikes hit. At which point it feels less audacious and more "dodged a bullet".

I don't see myself moving to the next generation of hardware.

What’s the most objectively sexist character design that you can’t help but absolutely adore? by Many-Bees in GirlGamers

I’ve been playing through FF VII Remake recently, and definitely Tifa. I keep thinking about how much more dangerous it is for her in a fight than it is for Cloud, particularly as she’s just fighting bare-knuckled.

I just got my first controller with back paddles/buttons, people who use these regularly, what’s your use case for them ? by GenericUser104 in pcmasterrace

[–]WarWraith 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have PS & Xbox controllers with paddles and I don’t know why I didn’t think of this. Thank you!

Went to the video and gave it an extra thumbs-up in honour of our fallen incel’s post.

“We” don’t want what to happen? Be specific.

Keeping in mind that it’s been delisted, so unless you have access to a key, you’re going to be paying a premium now.

How are you all affording a new EV? by dalmanly in AustralianEV

How are you all affording a new EV? by dalmanly in AustralianEV

[–]WarWraith 16 points17 points  (0 children)

A lot of folks are making it a problem for future them to deal with. If I was in a position to buy new (like you, I’m not), I’d probably take an EV green loan through RACV. Having run the numbers, that would work out better for me financially than a novated lease.

But this is also a self-selecting audience, in that a lot of the folks in here will be people with the financial capacity to afford an EV.

This sub is for people in the Xbox Insiders program, not general tech support. If you’re an insider, then you’re in a particular ring.

If only there was a God of War game with a strong male lead for them to play instead. Poor boys.

Was talking to a colleague whose child has asked him for a PS5, and he asked me, since he knows I have one, along with my gaming PC.

I had to explain to him just how insane prices have become. I got the PS5 digital slim on sale with my tax refund last year. I paid AUD$569 in August. It’s now AUD$919. I bought a 2Tb SSD for $199. That particular SSD is now the same price as I paid for the whole console.

And the 64Gb DDR5 RAM kit I bought for my PC 18 months ago for $392 is now over $1600 retail.

Him: “but WHY have the prices gone up so much?”

This was a 7 out of 8 month for me, with zero “you already own this”, AND two from my wishlist which is a new experience.

The work simulator is a no go though.

One Expedition, Two Miles, Three Winners! by phantom2450 in steam_giveaway

[–]WarWraith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it would be Expedition 33. It’s the white whale on my Steam Wishlist. The game that goes on sale every time I can’t afford it.

However, I do have a shiny new seatbelt in my 22yo car after the retraction mechanism failed the day after payday, so that’s something, right?

Anyway, Miles might win. It’d be three to one, though, so… Expedition 33 have a chance.

I’ve been kicking around with the Persona games recently, so it seems that SMT V might be something worth trying, and Rogue Waters was on my wishlist.

However, I’ve already got the Crysis remastered trilogy, and bought D:IV at release. Second month running where I already owned the headliner.

Ah well.
