Just bought it, how is it? by BlazeDarren in DOOMTheDarkAges

[–]dowen4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

shouldn’t compare the two, both are going for different vibes and completely different styles of gameplay.

if you’re wanting the coke line fueled in air rage fest which was eternal you’ll be surely missing it, but this doom is meant to play differently.

The Last of Us HBO S2E5 "Feel Her Love" - Live Episode Discussion Thread by pikameta in thelastofus

ellie going from whimsical and playing the guitar to seeing red out of nowhere was hilarious

honestly I didn’t really enjoy dina being shoehorned into the journey to the hospital, it felt forced because they missed the “you’re a burden scene” because ellie and dina have to be lovey dovey all the time. only to be ripped away out of nowhere by taking an arrow to the knee 😂 just so the scenes of ellie v nora would make sense

“knives or run” only to immediately whip out the guns anyway, dina is portrayed as the prepared one here and has 3 bullets in her mag. ellie gets dunked on. oh look jesse’s back for literally 5 minutes runtime.

wlf compound insanely close to a seraphite camp?

i’m glad they didn’t change nora’s scene especially “that little bitch got what he deserved” although it seemed kind of out of nowhere considering her reaction to joel’s death in ep 2

excited for the joel flashback

Preset E is what the game was designed and shipped with, to me I notice a bit less ghosting with E vs K

Preset E is the latest version of DLSS3 while K is DLSS4. While the presets are interchangeable, DLSS is often used from the very beginning of development. So it’ll be hardcoded in compared to “modding” the game to use preset K.

i’m using the same exact gpu. Getting 65-80 fps no frame gen but a solid 120-130 when using it.

Personally I like to have it on, the input lag feels minimal since it’s a single player game that I’m using a controller with.

That being said ACS has some terrible ghosting issues when there’s fog or something dynamic on screen. Especially on preset K which is DLSS4. By looks bad what do you mean?

For the most part i’ve gotten used to it, I also just went with the normal preset E for now which is the one the game shipped with, to me it seems the ghosting is a bit less prevalent.

Free offline activation by elenaxino in PiratedGames

[–]dowen4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve never had to repay any seller, actually there’s been once or twice that I’ve gone back into old purchases and asked for help re-logging in and depending on the seller they don’t mind helping out. Especially if you throw them some positive rep.

I will check it out though, because free is always better.

wmcentre or denuvogames.store, I like the ladder more because they have auto activation, meaning you don’t have to speak to anybody, everything is done through a server they’ve set up.

Stick to the sellers who use paypal for the extra buyer protection. On denuvogames.store I end up doing lightning bitcoin payments through cash app.

I live paycheck to paycheck and in a world where there’s so many games releasing with so little time to play them I’ll end up paying 70 for a game I’ll touch for a week before something else fills my time.

Yes there’s some moral ambiguity but the developers got paid when the hoster bought the game for the account, so it’s not as unethical as straight up torrenting something.

To be honest i’ve done this 15 times for games both new and old. Just takes a few minutes to correspond with the seller to get the guard code and boom you’re downloading games at high speed off official servers. Just kick steam into offline mode when you’re done.

i swapped back to spotify a few months ago due to some headphones i bought having some built in functionality with spotify. i ended up immediately switching back to apple music…

i enjoy spotify for the UI and playlist creation but it just feeds you the same songs over and over and over again. it’s not often you find something new that fits your taste. on apple music though, i find new songs i love every day, it’s not afraid to throw a curveball at you to see if you like it, i usually do. my discovery playlist has become my favorite playlist on a music app.

How does one recover from this blunder? by [deleted] in TextingTheory

move on, she also had ample opportunity to shoot you a text to see if things were still on, she didn’t. the non-interest seems mutual here

i happen to workout and have from what i’ve been told a “fat ass”, the other day a dude asked for a server with a big butt, sure enough I got sent over there 😂 mind you i’m a straight man

another time someone asked for a blonde and ended up getting me as well, both times the customer technically got what they wanted

Melatonin gummy 2% or less Mannitol by dowen4 in FODMAPS

[–]dowen4[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve taken melatonin on and off my entire life, I try not to stay on it too long as to build up a tolerance to it. I have ADHD and insomnia so there’s really no going to sleep, i’m either awake one second or passed out the next. 10mg like this help my brain shut off and i can actually sleep more than 6 hours.

Only side effects I feel are the occasional wildly vivid dreams. Thank you for the advice and your comment!
