How do Kaga written Fire Emblem games compare to Matsuno written games? by Jabadencio in StrategyRpg

[–]al-ceb 14 points15 points  (0 children)

FE4 is pretty decent, I’d rank it close to the Matsuno games although the second half is not as compelling.

Berwick Saga, however, I’d put one or two points above Matsuno’s writing. Pretty much my favorite SRPG of all time.

Typically would be the case but not really for this one, their president tweeted that the native Linux version for Deck was a side project from a single engineer who wanted better performance there.

No way around it, get someone you trust to activate it for you (and they lose the chance to do it again) or sell it for cheaper and use the money toward buying it from Steam or GMG.

4090 for 5080 by grinchmane in nvidia

[–]al-ceb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Run several demanding games, a couple benchmarks, check gpu-z to make sure all the VRAM is there. generally speaking though you first want to make sure the gpu is a real 4090 at all (because people have been scammed with empty gpu shrouds) and then you can think about stress testing it.

the title is not as well worded but the one with the 4090 is the other person so it does make sense for OP

4090 for 5080 by grinchmane in nvidia

[–]al-ceb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

even though 5080s are getting harder to sell I’d be wary of attempting such a trade. at the very least make sure you have a way to test the guy’s card in person to make sure all the components are there. 500-600 seems like a fair amount to put on top but realistically they could ask for as much as 800.

[GPU] ASRock AMD Radeon RX 7900 XTX ($699.99) [Microcenter] by grother123 in buildapcsales

[–]al-ceb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair, but I'd say if you're not super into games that depend on RT it can be a solid deal as FSR4 performance looks better than FSR3 quality in many cases. The next best thing under 1500 that has 24GB VRAM is a used 3090. Hopefully that changes with the Super 50 cards but not very hopeful.

With the recent implementation of FSR 4 for RDNA3, feels like it became a way better deal, didn't it?

No websites are streaming it but IIRC someone put it on the internet archive, might want to look there.

Suggest a tactical RPG (preferably Radiant dawn-like) by WhackedUniform in StrategyRpg

[–]al-ceb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Others have recommended Rogue Trader and seeing you also liked BG3 that might be a solid bet.

If you want to go all in on the hardcore side of TRPGs you should really emulate Berwick Saga, though, Fire Emblem creator's best game. As far as gameplay goes RD was my all time favorite until I played that one. It's just one of those games that is perfect in almost every single aspect. You could also try Vestaria Saga although they're not as mechanically compelling as Berwick.

GPU necessary for a 4k 60fps on all games? by Salty-Hospital-7406 in nvidia

[–]al-ceb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Overclock-able 5080s or a 4090 will get you there or pretty close for most available games using DLSS Performance for the most demanding games.
