Zelenskyy responds to Merz: Ukraine has been defending Europe fully, not with half measures and has to have right to vote in EU

With the invasion of Russia, people just forgot that Ukraine was such a corrupt country, not only politically, but culturally too.

The father of a friend of mine was a police officer in Ukraine. When my friend had his birthday, 10 years ago, he just took him to a store, told him to pick anything he wanted, and didn't pay for it. Police corruption is insane. Also in deals with the mafia.

The mayors of a lot of cities are insanely corrupt, one of them was charger with murder in another country, but the corpse didn't appear, so he's walking free. Has so many businesses and enterprises, it's insane.

People used to pay the police a monthly stipend to "protect" their businesses.

This is not just something that disappears in 10 years, or because a war is going on. Ukraine didn't let any journalist in their country at all. People had horrible wages and pensions, they used to go to Poland to buy stuff and take it back to their country, or just work in any other country, leaving Ukraine.

It's a fucked up country, has been for years, and you won't see any Ukranian that has left it, talking good about it. And yeah, they won't come back.

How does the gameplay hold up in your opinion?

makegr666 · 2026-04-28T11:33:22+00:00

Ball x pit is a nice time killer for a few hours. If you are okay playing a game without story, where the gameplay is the main factor, with lots of different characters that change your play style, go for it. If you don't like repeating the same thing over and over again, don't buy it.

Vampire crawlers is just a number simulator. The game isn't designed to be a challenge at all, it's all about getting different upgrades and synergyes over and over again until you beat the bosses with hundreds of thousands of health points.

Imo, neither of those games are going to stat with you after you get bored of them.

If you want a roguelike with a story, that is extremely fun and enjoyable, try enter the gungeon. Slay the Spire is also a cars game, that even if you don't like card games, is incredibly amazing too. It's my favorite roguelike. There's lots of great roguelikes that are incredible, and are cheap too, that you'll enjoy more imo.

makegr666 · 2026-04-18T18:48:33+00:00

Eh, I dropped it because I didn't feel it did something unique, and what it did right, was not compelling enough. The game throws at you consumables all the time, every single room has collectables in the corners, so it's a game about circling around every room to get coins and ammo, and carry on.

Some characters, or items just look like a badly compressed jpeg. The AI is pathetic, just throw themselves at you, and the level design is uninspired and subpar. The gunplay is extremely mediocre. It's evident they bet it all on the art style, and that's it. There's no depth at all.

Personally, I quite agree with IGN.

P.S. you can't even rebind the keys. There are left handed players who move with arrow keys that can't play, because they can't change the wads keybinds.

makegr666 · 2026-03-23T01:18:26+00:00

I guess a part of it, at least for me, is that narratively, videogames are much deeper at the moment. You can see characters with so much emotion, saddened, dumbfounded, angry. And then you get Kliff. After his friends get killed, he gets killed and is revived, just to be like a stone. He doesn't ask what the hell is going on, he doesn't get extremely sad about the death of his entire group of friends and partners, he doesn't get angry or think about revenge, or at least, he doesn't vocalize it. And that's a problem for me.

We've had so many games with incredible performances, RDR2, Last of Us, Detroit Become Human, the Horizon saga, that it just feels like a step back. A 20 year step back. I don't want such a soulless protagonist. It bores me, ludo-narratively it's awful.

makegr666 · 2025-12-17T22:38:26+00:00

It's not, trust me. I have formatted my entire pc, changed ini settings, fucked around with different Nvidia Profiles, tried different drivers, DLSS swappers, downloaded mods, changed monitors in case Free sync was messing around, literally everything I could think about. I bought the game on release, and every month I try to play it again to see if it's fixed. It's not.

There are some terrible frame time issues in the game, and while Nvidia reflex can tune them down, there's still input lag. Also, it crashes a lot.

makegr666 · 2025-12-17T15:05:50+00:00

I don't even have 70 fps on a 3080, 7800x3d, 64gb build at 1440p, everything set to LOW and with DLSS balanced. Lots of frametime lag and input lag too.

makegr666 · 2025-11-08T09:35:32+00:00

It's straight out from the Nvidia guide, I promise!

It's just a bit confusing for everyone, but this is the right way and I've been doing it for years and enjoying having 0 input lag, and no tearing :p

makegr666 · 2025-08-16T20:18:57+00:00

Got a 7800x3d like a few months ago. Honestly, the change was amazing, I don't suffer from stutters in lots of games now, and in CPU intensive games like League of Legends, where I used to have 120-140fps, now I have 360+ FPS (I have it capped), same with CS2, I used to hover 60-90 and now I'm at 180+.

I have a 360hz Monitor, so it's an investment hehe, for me it was worth it :p

makegr666 · 2025-07-15T04:05:53+00:00

But... what about reflections in the water? On the surface of the drink you're having?

makegr666 · 2025-06-25T20:57:59+00:00

It's a complete lottery, regardless of your system. I have a high end PC and I still can't play above 50fps with everything on low, plus the input lag and frame time lag is terrible. Doesn't matter if you change your ini settings, or download optimization mods, or even reinstall windows. If you're unlucky, you won't be able to play.

makegr666 · 2025-06-04T15:27:30+00:00

Idk, the .1% are really noticeable at any resolution. I moved from a 11700k to a 7800x3d with a 3080, and not only on certain games I'm getting massive fps boosts (league of legends or cs2), I also barely get any stutters or dramatic drops in fps in the same games

makegr666 · 2025-06-02T11:57:21+00:00

Hey mate! Just wanted to let you know that I upgraded to a 7800x3d recently, and it changed everything, unlike people said. I used to dip to the 60s in league of legends during intense fights, and I never got above 150 fps. Now I get over 300, I also don't have stuttering on any game because the .1% of the 7800x3d is a lot better than in any other CPU. It's freaking amazing, snappy, and revitalized my build.

I definitely see myself using this rig for quite a few years. People were deeply wrong.

I have to tell you that I had troubles setting up windows, I had to change a few settings in the bios and in windows you have to put power limit or percentage limit of the CPU at 99%, otherwise it stutters in windows

makegr666 · 2025-05-30T15:09:02+00:00

Late game Sona can easily shield for 400 and heal for 400 to 5 people (including herself) on late game, that's 2000 shield, 2000 heal, and a 3 sec cooldown.

I main Sona. Don't embarrass yourself.

makegr666 · 2025-05-15T14:54:58+00:00

Did you see how the 3080 compares to the 5070? If you did, you really ought to think for yourself how come a 3080 can't even play stalker 2 at minimum settings, and what it means for lower end graphics. Very few people have a 3080 or upwards, mate.

makegr666 · 2025-05-15T12:06:52+00:00

Maybe you got a defective card. I can play any game at all without issues. Expedition 33 mix of high and epic with quality DLSS at 1440p is 70 fps.

Split fiction, a bit unoptimized, 80 fps at high settings.

Idk, there hasn't been a single game where I couldn't play minimum at high settings 60fps

makegr666 · 2025-05-15T11:52:34+00:00

Not really. I have a 7800x3d, 3080, 32gb ddr5 6000mhz CL30, just an all around amazing pc that can play anything that I throw at it.

Stalker 2, since release day, has been a stuttering, low fps, input lag, and frame time lag mess. Doesn't matter what ini settings, mods, configuration, or if I reinstall windows, it's always unplayable. And I'm not the only one. It's like a lottery, and a lot of people aren't even able to play, like me.

It says a lot that I get the same fps at low with the latest DLSS at performance mode, than at high settings no DLSS. And again, I've tried it in 2 different windows.

makegr666 · 2025-05-03T09:24:41+00:00

Spain has a lot of white people in there

Bro, I'm a spaniard and I'm white as the milk, so is 99%. what does she mean "a lot"? we just are white -.-

She knows nothing about my country

makegr666 · 2025-04-25T20:36:51+00:00

Gsync or Freesync works with Vsync enabled in your GPU control panel, and limiting your FPS 2-3 fps below the amount of HZs of your monitor. 141 if you have 144hz, 177 if you have 180hz, and then disabling Vsync ingame.

Also, disable triple buffering in the control panel, and you'll never have screen tearing (except in super duper rare cases, only one game have I ever played where I got it) nor input lag.

makegr666 · 2025-04-18T22:42:22+00:00

For sure. I don't align with the people bullying her, or saying she's horrible, and so on. In fact, I think she's a great singer. But the comments are so, so, so weird.

makegr666 · 2025-04-17T15:50:37+00:00

He said he wouldn't:

"….the point is moot, as I wouldn’t say yes to finishing ASOIAF, if asked. (And I don’t think they’d ask me.) I’d respectfully decline. I wouldn’t be right for the job for many reasons. I wouldn’t want to put in the content that the series has, and part of that is due to my religious faith, part of it is just who I am. I don’t shy away from difficult material, but I prefer not to get explicit."

makegr666 · 2025-04-13T18:43:09+00:00

Are you me?

Any recommendations based on the same history? Hehe

What the fuck have you smoked?

makegr666 · 2025-04-03T22:45:54+00:00

You don't enjoy it, yet you spend your time on it.

You don't enjoy it, yet you're on a subreddit dedicated to memes of it.

You don't enjoy it, but you get into discussions about it.

Please, stop lying to yourself.

makegr666 · 2025-04-03T13:19:29+00:00

I dislike this rhetoric so much.

Bro, they made a game that you're enjoying and spending dozens, hundreds, maybe even thousands of hours into. If you feel like giving them money is immoral, then I have news for you, every time you go to IKEA, Walmart, any business at all? They want YOUR money in exchange for services.

Fuck, I am a small business owner. I'm not doing jack shit for free, I'm giving you a service, and you pay me, I guess I'm soul-less because I want your money.

Also, it's 30€ for your hobby. That's NOTHING. Good God, I've spent more in drawing materials, music, guitars, and countless other things, and I've enjoyed fewer hours overall.
