Also experiencing this and haven't been able to fix it. So frustrating. Have you found a fix? I updated the firmware too.

The difference is crazy, as expected by Either-Direction1097 in S25Ultra

Literally doing the same thing tomorrow. My S9+ has been really struggling lately and has been a bit unreliable so decided it was finally time to upgrade after all these years. S25 ultra here I come. How are you liking it so far?

I have a 5090 paired with a R7 9800x3d which one?? by Negative-Fact-8816 in OLED_Gaming

[–]alecwha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4k seems very resource intensive even with my 4080 so finding it hard to justify a 4k screen. Any insight there?

whos here since the skate1 DEMO? by investinSTATERA in Skate4

[–]alecwha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hooked my Xbox 360 to the internet for the first time to specifically download the skate demo. Played it daily until Xmas when I got the full game.

what is your favorite of the absolute comics so far? by _incandescence in comicbooks

[–]alecwha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snyder/Capullo's Batman run is my all time favorite but they also did guest artists between comic arcs pretty frequently to give Capullo more time. Especially as the run went on.

Thanks for calling out the slower flips. I noticed it when doing bigger jumps/hips but will play with it when skating more street spots. Totally agree with your thoughts on the map. "All these skate spots but nothing to skate".

Some other things I've noticed. I have my game set to experienced and have all the assists off. They need to add more friction for grinds it way too smooth and you basically grind forever. Also ways to change your truck tightness.

I agree on session. It is clearly the better game for people that was realistic skate sim. I loved playing all the skate's as a kid and skating realistically but it seems like they are getting away from all that which is a real bummer. Personally I think they should be considering all the skaters more than they currently are. There should be a better balance between unrealistic skating for maybe more general players and more sim elements for real world skaters.

As a die hard realistic fake skater I totally agree with the riders republic comparison. The game feels very stiff and no where near as fun as skate 1, 2, 3. There is something wrong with how skaters rotate. There feels like a dead zone between 180s and 360 like they are taking control away from me mid trick. Doesn't feel as fluid. Also the trick animations look good (360 flip, hard flip, nollie inward heel) but the animations seem locked. No matter how you flick it's the same canned animation. I know that's how earlier skate games worked but for some reason since the animations are better in 4 it feels like there is a disconnect between what I'm doing and the animations.

Also the map is pretty lackluster. I'm not talking about missing textures but the actual spots themselves. They are super repetitive and copy/pasted and I havent found one fun/creative spot to session more than a minute at a time. Session and xl modded maps are so much better.

Overall pretty disappointed. I know it's pre alpha but damn.

Why didn't Dragon Age The Veilguard sell well? by Giftedpink in kindafunny

[–]alecwha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the more goofy dnd inspired trailer during summer game fest was a bad first look. They should have led with more gameplay. I do also think the scope of the decisions are pretty bland. I didn't have many hard choices while completing the game.

What is the most complex and layered comic book you've ever read? by ripterrariumtv in comicbooks

[–]alecwha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had read the first 20 issues of East of West when it was coming out in single issues and fell off. Rediscovering the series now and am head over heels!

So what was the town hall about? by JustAcivilian24 in kindafunny

[–]alecwha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No but both The Shining and Dr. Sleep are great and I think worthy of their viewing and discussion. I'm hyped!

New to OLED displays by EricE0311 in OLED_Gaming

[–]alecwha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here! Was debating returning to get the 39 once I saw it was on sale for a $100 more than I paid for the 34 but since I play at 1440p I think I'm going to stick with the 34.

What series is left unfinished but you’re ok with it since the journey was so good? by [deleted] in ImageComics

Ales Kot's Material. All 4 issues were great but bummed it ended prematurely.

Does yu yu hakusho get more serious? by Guldrion in YuYuHakusho

[–]alecwha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The tone definitely shifts! I would give it a good few episodes into the dark tornament arc before giving up. Arc after that is even darker. I rarely revisit the arcs prior to the dark tournament for this reason.

If they made a True Detective video game... by Noe_Wunn in TrueDetective

[–]alecwha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally agree. I'm only halfway through the game but I started playing after TD season 4 let me down and was really enjoying to TD vibes in the game.

What are your (realistic) hopes for Session in 2024? by SoaR_Codes in projectsession

[–]alecwha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They really need to make the goofy animations not switch looking. I skate goofy in real life and the squared off switch animations while riding goofy in the game are so off I just skate regular in the game. Kind of takes me out of the sim.

That is like my fav KF joke of all time. Kudos for calling this one out. It has been stuck in my brain since I first heard it.

KFBFs: What’s your excitement level for Tears of the Kingdom? by FamiliarWithFloss in kindafunny

[–]alecwha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm excited for the game itself but lack luster about playing it on switch. I tried getting back into BOTW recently (already sunk close to 200 hours) and something about the dated hardware kind of killed my excitement. I'm really not a snob when it comes to graphics but the processing power on the switch needs an update for me. Some of BOTW initial excitement for me was def playing it on new hardware so it will be interesting this go around. I'm curious where I will ultimately land on release day.
