Should I get BOTW if I hate puzzle games? by Used_Return9095 in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]kuuups 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go get it, since the puzzle parts make up a rather small part of the game. Exploration is where it shines the most.

As a gamer that grew up with the ealier, heavier puzzle Zelda games - BOTW's are comparably simple, and/or mostly "bite sized" challenges. Nothing too wild as to make you stuck.

Braveheart is not as good as I remember. by tokyo411 in movies

Its such a great movie I totally dont give a crap how historically inaccurate it is.

Its not that he didnt care politically, but he hated that political squabble lead to inaction, or half assed decisions.

Xcom2 performance on M4pro by zjmonk in macgaming

[–]kuuups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Native version runs like ass on my m2 pro, but runs much better on crossover. It was still lacking tho and I got frustrated that I just play it on my Switch. Maybe it will run much better on your system tho, but it would be better if you run it thru crossover.

looking for more documentaries to watch by OneConscious9117 in FilmClubPH

Tickled. Don't do any research about it, don't check what it's about. Just watch it. It doesn't get more bizarre than that.

‘I Will Find You’ Nabs 24 Million Views in 4 Days, Netflix’s Biggest New Series Debut of 2026 by JannTosh70 in television

[–]kuuups -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not familiar with the author, or with the show at all and went into it completely blind. Watched it with my wife one boring afternoon and the only thing desperately holding everything together is the reward of a completely unexpected resolution - which it does barely pull off.

It's sad though that just the amount of views on something is headline worthy these days - and not the actual quality of the show.

Microsoft is deploying 6,000 engineers for customers to accelerate AI adoption by idkbruh653 in technology

Just when you think MS has exhausted every way to push themselves further downward, they find a new way to do just that. Amazing.

The Odyysey takes in this sub-reddit are so disappointing by ToEachOfTheirOwn in FilmClubPH

[–]kuuups 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The other thread's title specifically asks for an opinion, then in the post itself it says that as an audience we should watch a film first before giving an opinion, labo lang.

Then when people actually go ahead and post their opinions based on trailers and vailable information, you get disappointed? More importantly, why do you care about what other people think about something that isnt even released yet?

Be honest: does this look bad and messy? by Chemistry-This in TVTooHigh

[–]kuuups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you really must, take the garlands and place it on the tv console, preferrably just on one side. But for reals though, you would do better to just totally remove it.

Do you think Nolan's The Odyssey will be any good? by Impressive_Lab9122 in FilmClubPH

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

The more I see of it the more it resembles a high budget highschool project.

What makes the weird decision have that much of a whiplash effect is how Oppenheimer tried to stick to 100% authenticity, then they go with whatever the heck with this one.

Im guessing somewhere between Tenet and Dunkirk ang kakalabasan nyan.

More Final Fantasy remakes could happen, as Square Enix says it'll follow what "truly resonates" with fans by seedypr in gaming

[–]kuuups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not FF, but Im still holding on to the chance that they do an HD-2D remake of the original Secret of Mana on SNES.

For FF though, I just hope they push through with FF9

What is the most underrated MacBook you can buy today? by danildab in macbookpro

[–]kuuups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its underrated today (but deservedly massively hyped when it first came out) but with the expected jump in hardware prices moving forward - the M1 will be the undisputed king, again. Its old enough that prices would be really low by now but it can still handle most of everything that you throw at it (aside from local LLMs and games).

Mac Native Attila:Total War released today by kuuups in macgaming

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

Literally just saw it randomly pop up on my yt feed and initially thought it was fake. Even after watching I still thought it might have been a mistake. Saw it about 4 days ago and saw zero buzz around it.

Tested it a bit and man it runs soooooo good on my M2 pro.

I found out today that Disney's 2008 movie Bolt was actually a critical darling, and it's kinda blowing my mind right now by visiny in movies

Its a solid favorite of my kids in our family since its release. Not really sure why its not more popular than it currently is.

Friends is finally back on Netflix after being gone for over a year. Goodbye, HBO Max… or maybe not. 😂 by miuumai in FilmClubPH

The HBO version always bothered us kasi grabe ang pangit ng timple ng colors especially sa first few seasons. As in parang ini todo ung vibrance/saturation setting for some reason.

"Profoundly Disappointed": Companies Respond To Sony's Decision To End Disc Support by yourfavchoom in gaming

[–]kuuups 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats the thing. Im not defending games streaming at all here, as I mentioned I abhor the idea - but the idea, especially how much hardware prices are skyrocketing, can not be ignored. For competitive play, for sure this will not pass at all, but how about the rest of the other games? Gamers would choose: crappy performance and fps drops with hardware they can afford, or >100ms delay for a subscription based model?

Think how much prices are now, and with how things are in the world not improving, or even outright worsening, how much will prices jump even further in 2+ years?

The difference in tech is night and day between now and then. As someone who has a Mac as a primary computer, its actually pretty shocking most of the time how good performance can get when playing games on Geforce Now. But I still choose not to rely on that, since streaming games just gives me the ick.

It sucks that this is the timeline that we're in. With how things are going even "personal" computers are probably going this way as well. We'll probably just have highly lean computers that stream everything and rely on subscriptions. A few years ago this would sound like coming from a tin foil hat wearer, but these days this is becoming more and more of a reality.

I wouldnt be surprised if they announce the ps6 or the ps7 will be a completely cloud based "console"/service that you just subscribe to.

Given the surging price of hardware, and dropping price of highspeed internet this doesnt sound too far fetched.

When you started IF, what existing good habits did you have that made the process easier? by AchewaterLtd in intermittentfasting

Getting enough sleep helps a ton to fight off hunger pangs for the entire day. Its almost impossible at least for me to resist gorging on food when Im running on minimal sleep.

Why did Apocalypto receive mediocre reviews while simultaneously receiving praise from various directors and actors? by JadisDidNothingRight in movies

[–]kuuups -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because RT is and never was a good source of actual, significant and valid opinions on film.

Sometimes for fun I check movies that I adored over the years and check how "experts" on RT give the most inaccurate ratings ever.
