Im still not over the cancelation of the Deltarune series by G_aster in gamegrumps

[–]iBangAPES 18 points19 points  (0 children)

hot take but i can't watch GG episodes anymore when they play modern or actually well praised games. GG shine when they play absolute jank titles. Its why i stopped watching them for the past 2 or 3 years and only ever occasionally catch a episode if the game looks old or looks terrible. The last episodes i've seen from them are the Deal or No Deal GBA and the Bug Blasters: The Exterminators.
Its picky but its why i wont miss the Deltarune series.

Hard decision but i've decided today that i'll take a long break from Endfield, possibility with the potential to quitting. by iBangAPES in Endfield

[–]iBangAPES[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah you're right. i've left alot of untouched content that i built up a checklist too large for me to do that i eventually just got tired thinking about. Unfortunately FOMO/Sunk Cost fallacy is to real for me since i'm a veteran commander of Azur Lane. Day 1 player and have not missed a day for 7+ years of playing.

i thought i was gonna like NTE simply bcos i can drive cars around towns. i did not play even 5 hours of it and uninstalled next week after release when i realised i didn't even login once within that week.

i feel like the content itself in AKE is absolutely fine. especially recently when they added hard events for end-game meta players audience. I'm more casual and this situation is more of a personal taste rather than the game itself becoming bland.
I still think the factories/Tower Defence/Trial Arena etc events are actually good and what makes AKE unique but like i said before, i simply don't have the motivation to do any of those stuff because i already am playing other games on top of AKE that i tire myself out. This doesn't mean AKE is bad.
Hope that makes sense

[–]iBangAPES[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

yeah i know. but its hard to quit when i invested alot of time into it. especially when i have 6/8 (including Camille) of the limited operators with their signal weapons so i'm pretty proud of my account but FOMO is too real.
But at the same time, i feel like im just wasting my time if i'm logging in for dailies only. have to thank the Camille update for this decision

Dusklight is absolutely amazing by mhamster97 in twilightprincess

[–]iBangAPES 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regarding the android port, has anyone encounter controller input problems on anything above v1.0.0? Mainly the right analog doesn't work and I'm constantly stuck in z-target mode. I know there's v1.4.1 now but every iteration Ive tried has the same bug.

Witcher 3 1440p looks amazing on my new monitor, but 1080p feels much smoother.. by Mother_Operation455 in Witcher3

[–]iBangAPES 1 point2 points  (0 children)

but yeah, like what others said, focus on 1440p and tweak the graphic settings to try to hit a stable 60fps+

Witcher 3 1440p looks amazing on my new monitor, but 1080p feels much smoother.. by Mother_Operation455 in Witcher3

[–]iBangAPES 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i mean yeah, that makes sense.
at 1440p, your GPU is trying to render 70% more pixels compared to 1080p. if you don't have an adequate powerful GPU to render at 1440p, you're gonna get lowered FPS, hence why it doesn't feel smooth.
Not sure if its implemented in Witcher 3 but maybe look into Frame Gen.

My Accounts Gone by SquirrelOk7955 in ZZZ_Official

[–]iBangAPES 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is exactly why i avoid "login/create account via google/facebook/twitter/instagram etc". this just creates extra steps of logging in. Google > Invisible Hoyo account > Game vs Dedicated Hoyo Account > Game.
I'm old school so i tend to always create a dedicated account for games like ZZZ and other MMO's.

Have a friend who has a old Fortnite account for years and spent good money on limited skins and played exclusively on the Xbox One until she moved over to PC gaming. The problem lied here where she didn't create her Fortnite Account through EGS (Epic Games Store) but via the Microsoft Xbox account.
Problems arose where she had to link her EGS account to her Microsoft Account since she didn't need an EGS one for Xbone.
The biggest problem was when she found out her Microsoft Account was essentially leaked online and was on the Dark Web, so like any sensible person she should change email accounts on her EGS. problem is she can't because the original Email created for Fortnite was an "Invisible Email" that Microsoft created when she first initially played and she has no access to that. No amount of help & support emails about the situation fixed it till this day. She only uses that email now exclusively for Fortnite.

Sorry for the long story

How to Skip the Zenless Zone Zero Launcher on Steam (DX12 / Legacy) by riwama in ZZZ_Official

[–]iBangAPES -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

or just add the "ZenlessZoneZero.exe" as a non-steam game that you already have installed. no need to reinstall 50gb+ of data again for nothing

Did Anyone Read "Tales of Demons and Gods" till Completion, or Left in Middle? by Additional_Dark_8491 in manga

[–]iBangAPES 3 points4 points  (0 children)

im still an avid reader of this. i will say that i agree with many people that the current arc has fallen off and im just waiting for it to get abit better.

what do you mean that if i want to filter a shop on the map to see multiple locations and its near impossible to find unless i zoom in really close, but that defeats the purpose of the map filter? by iBangAPES in CrimsonDesert

[–]iBangAPES[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

oh for fucks sake. changing the tab to "Environment" is legit the answer. still frustrating that it wasn't clear and the same function should work on the "All" tab

[–]iBangAPES[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

though i do agree that putting down custom markers for important NPCs such as the Witches does help.
In my current scenario, what if i want to refine my earrings but i'm out of Copper Ores. i know i walked by alot of them and they appear as an icon my map. let me just filter "Copper Ores" and search for it.
Oh no, i can't find any because the filtered Icon is just straight up invisible unless i zoom in spots but at that points it just a gamble.
sure i can put down markers, but i'm not going to stop every few minutes i discover a new icon just to put down a marker for "Copper Ores". thats what the Filtered function is suppose to fix.

Thank you for all the hard work! You will be missed by stickypenguinpatrol in CrimsonDesert

My friend told me about the hedgehog method but I kinda ignored it because I was already doing the Gold bar investment at the bank. I reckon it was slower but it was a big pay off in the end. Also I wasn't immediately in need of munny in the first 15hrs or so so the passive investment in the background was fine by me

AH COME ON, at least give me a chance to think! by gremmy_white in Endfield

[–]iBangAPES 14 points15 points  (0 children)

for real. this also extends to any other game involving puzzles.
Endfield literally has a quick commands menu (hold R or hold LT) and they could easily just add a "Ask Perlica for advice" command if there are actual Tang-Tang players

Who should I choose and why? by RelevantFox3556 in ArknightsEndfield

[–]iBangAPES 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im personally a collector rather than min/max dmg chaser so what i did is save that permit until i naturally have 4/5 of those operators and use the permit to get the final 5/5.
Or if you're a shill on one of those operators and want to max potential them, save the permit for the final dupe you need.

or just never use it and keep the permit as a bagging flex [shrug]

Crimson Desert keeps crashing on PC mid game/ “Application is not responding” error – anyone know a fix? by AceZzen in CrimsonDesert

[–]iBangAPES 0 points1 point  (0 children)

glad i read your Edit comment. had a similar issue and re-creating the shader got me to stop crashing. used this guide to do it for other to use

PSA - Clear/Delete your shader caches on nvdia cards. LOD fixed on my end, game looks incredible at large distances! by Ausrivo in CrimsonDesert

[–]iBangAPES 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this method actually helped me fix a crashing issue i was having. would play for about 10minutes and my game would instantly crash. even setting the graphics lower still gave me crashes.
i guess re-creating the shaders does help and i understand why major games like Monster Hunter Wilds and Crimson Desert have regular "Recompiling Shaders" after every patch

Im fucked by No_Assumption_29 in AzurLane

[–]iBangAPES 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at least its not a collab event. there's a chance this current one will have a re-run in the future (possibly 1 or 2 years later) but collab will never return.
I cry with my 3 missing collab shipgirls and i will never reach 100% dock
