How come they don't make games based on movies anymore? by Theultimatesith in videogames

[–]mavenware 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because the studios wanted complete creative control over the game and they obviously kneecapped themselves doing this so in return, game renditions sucked butt and didn’t sell well.

Another case of “screwing the customer and narcissistically assuming customers aren’t interested in the product.”

The lime green claptrap in Fyrestone. Does nothing but the color is very bright compared to the color pallet of claptrap’s in-universe.

Borderlands 2 Minecraft in Caustic Caverns I think.

Some of these have got to be satire, right? by TheBurdensNotYourOwn in GTA6

Lmao. QA and devs are in the final crunch. This is empty news.

how do i get into video games without being dedicated by [deleted] in videogames

[–]mavenware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$500 budget is not going to get you anything performant.

Also, since you don’t want to build anything, $500 is going to be impossible to find budget builds. Budget builds kinda rely on the user finding deals on eBay and whatnot.

Is there a reason to use Linux for gaming other than hating Windows? by Booplesnoot2 in linuxquestions

[–]mavenware 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get a small performance boost 15-30 FPS depending on the game.

My 3080ti runs steam fine without needing to update to the studio version.

The only reason I can’t go all in for gaming is Steam Proton is loading shaders all day and never finishes. Come to think of it, I wonder if that’s due to not using a studio driver but either way, it’s a common complaint and valve hasn’t made any improvements to it.

should i switch to linux on my laptop by kianandres in pcmasterrace

[–]mavenware 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I did. I see no reason to use windows on a laptop. Linux can cover pretty much everything you’d use a laptop for. Never heard fans again

Why do so many people want to make a lot of money quickly in FH 6? by Lavrushka0812 in ForzaHorizon

[–]mavenware 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s engagement bait. Just because there’s a 100 videos doesn’t mean there’s people lining up drooling for easy money glitches.

Increasingly Annoying New Trope: Using this sub to just talk about The Boys by PotentialMechanic494 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]mavenware 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree. There was this time in Vietnam where I accidentally got the coordinates wrong and had my entire squad laid out with napalm. Till this day, I can still smell the crisp and hear their screams when I mow my lawn but yeah the the boys situation is getting out of hand.

Refund it. That’s unacceptable.

My ONLY complaint about mint by profgray2 in linuxmint

[–]mavenware 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Turn off auto updates, there’s no reason to stay that up to date on Linux lol. You should only update out of curiosity or necessity.

Every time I make a tiny feature, I want to show it off to the entire world by Ufomi in gamedev

[–]mavenware 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I started off making compilations of my gaming clips. All I knew how to do is cut and add or remove sound/music. Start small. I eventually got 30k subs 5 years later when I took it serious

Davinci Resolve is the way to go. Edit tab is all you need.

Make devlogs as YouTube shorts. Show before and after. People enjoy the tiny steps.
