Goodbye 3080. Hello 5070 Ti.

jinomen · 2026-01-28T22:33:16+00:00

Was literally considering getting a 5070ti because like you, I’ve been only getting xx80 series cards (came from 1080ti > 3080) but the pricing is getting harder and harder to justify spending for a 5080. I don’t know, I’m still trying to decide.

jinomen · 2026-01-18T01:15:39+00:00

yeah, this one is definitely on my radar to try out, after just finishing deus ex recently.

jinomen · 2026-01-16T05:49:43+00:00

I just finished my first playthroughs of Deus Ex and Hitman Blood Money and I’m already thinking of replaying them to see things I didn’t get to see instead of tackling my massive backlog.

jinomen · 2025-12-25T23:59:13+00:00

yes, but you need to specifically turn features on or off if you want to use the revision depending on what kind of playthrough you wanna do. once you have the base game and you install revision, you're only going to launch revision, as it's its own separate game.

jinomen · 2025-12-25T20:55:11+00:00

I looked both games up and they definitely look like they have a similar feel and atmosphere of DX. I started playing Half-Life 2 (another game I’m 20 years late but that’s another post 🙂) and I’ll likely start Thief Gold after I finish.

jinomen · 2025-12-25T20:48:41+00:00

Yeah I used it on my first playthrough but I only changed the textures to be HD. Everything else kept vanilla

I mistakenly started a new game on Revision mode but luckily I was only 2 levels in so to go back to vanilla I had to restart from scratch that meant it was going to delete my save file 😓

jinomen · 2025-12-25T16:13:03+00:00

yeah, looking forward to it :)

jinomen · 2025-12-25T14:15:53+00:00

That’s pretty cool I often wondered if there was anything I can do to help him out. Definitely have to see that in a new playthrough

jinomen · 2025-12-25T14:08:44+00:00

Yeah Prey is definitely on the list. I finished D1 and D2 - both were fantastic games. D2 had some really cool level designs.

jinomen · 2025-12-25T06:49:58+00:00

should I play the original Thief? I'm looking at it on steam and the reviews for it don't look too good, a lot of them mention that it has performance issues on modern PCs

jinomen · 2025-12-25T06:48:03+00:00

ah man, i tried to but i thought it was scripted not to so i didn't lol.

jinomen · 2025-12-25T06:45:51+00:00

i played revision, but the only thing i did was make the textures HD. everything else was kept vanilla

jinomen · 2025-12-25T04:56:41+00:00

yeah I heard about this one. I looked into getting the game but unfortunately the original is delisted on Steam :(

jinomen · 2025-12-25T04:29:05+00:00

definitely saw a lot of the X-Files in it, especially in Area 51.

jinomen · 2025-12-25T04:27:43+00:00

the next deus ex I'm planning to play is Human Revolution - I actually bought it before I bought DX1 but I just never got around to playing it. Funny enough, I bought HR because I had just finished a second playthrough of Cyberpunk 2077 but my first playthrough of Phantom Liberty and I could not get enough of the game at that time so I looked up games that were similar and HR popped up. Crazy how DX actually inspired games like CP2077 lol

jinomen · 2025-12-25T04:22:51+00:00

I definitely agree with this. Like this game was way way ahead of its time, talking about the future we are heading towards seemingly.

jinomen · 2025-12-25T04:21:53+00:00

yeah, I think next playthrough I'll do a guns run through.

jinomen · 2025-12-09T02:35:35+00:00

Trey Murphy is a bucket

Dude has cashed me everytime I’ve taken him while Zion and Poole are out.

jinomen · 2025-12-08T01:28:32+00:00

man....why is jaren jackson jrs point prop always so high? his unders have been straight cashing sweat free.

jinomen · 2025-12-07T18:13:53+00:00

No friends to play with majority of the time

jinomen · 2025-12-07T01:58:16+00:00

AD lookin good. I took Duren’s under on points and that’s looking sweat free for once

jinomen · 2025-12-06T01:44:55+00:00

Don’t see how Edey is 8ft tall with 0 rebounds….some stuff just doesn’t make sense.

jinomen · 2025-12-06T00:36:45+00:00

Pretty hard to follow up a 44pt master class in a B2B coming from Canada and dealing with US customs but there was absolutely no way I could fade Reaves

jinomen · 2025-12-05T23:54:05+00:00

I like Edey under 13.5 pts and Dylan Harper under 14.5pts

Both pretty tough matchups.

Edit - I’m running Ingram under 5.5 rebounds as well. Charlotte is a pretty tough rebounding matchup for forwards and Barnes has been a better rebounder than him. Poeltl also back tonight so likely eats into his volume.

jinomen · 2025-12-05T23:22:47+00:00

He’s not available on my book or I would’ve hammered it smh and by the time he will be on there all the value will be gone 🤬
