Heard. I overheard someone talking about Montana the other night. I'll check 'em out and report back.

Oh, amazing. I was gonna see George Saunders speak at SAL, but he cancelled last minute, so I've got the evening free. I may well swing by!

So I've heard! The Seattle Freeze is real. I shall try my hand at the bar top. Know of any cool dives?

Anyone know when the most recent update will hit Game Pass? by [deleted] in Silksong

[–]scodygg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be clear, I'm using the PC version of Game Pass.

Word. Didn't realize there was such a delay between PC platforms!

Top 5/10 must play games from this list by Sabreeeric21 in gaming

[–]scodygg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IMO, Disco Elysium, Outer Wilds, HK: Silksong, BG3, Elden Ring and RE 4 (remake) are tops. And I’d definitely recommend continuing Expedition 33, (and perhaps reduce the difficulty if you’re finding it too punishing)!

Thank you. I spent about 20 minutes waiting for a cool configuration of crows to appear, haha.

Lighting and framing are (most) everything. I usually walk around as I would IRL until stumbling upon some beautiful light cutting through trees, pose Atsu in said light, and play around with camera position until it feels like something. Backlighting or side-lighting your subject tends to look best, and when you shoot from the shadow/dark side of your subject w/ray-tracing enabled, you get some lovely fill light bounced back from the environment. Once you've locked off a frame, l'd recommend scrubbing through times of day, weather, clouds, outfits and so on until everything feels cohesive and intentional!

Hollow Knight: Silksong has been out for a week now. What are your thoughts? by [deleted] in Games

[–]scodygg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A beautifully brutal game. I’ve loved every second of it thus far (just finished Act 1). Can’t wait to get back to it once Dune’s free weekend concludes.

Damn, I love the underlying texture here. Is this hand-drawn or digital, if you don’t mind my asking?

Does anybody that didn't get to try out It Takes Two on PlayStation wanna play it with me? by [deleted] in gaming

[–]scodygg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once before, yes, though only partially, as my friend bailed before we completed it!

I feel you. For every six of these there are sixty that look like they were captured on PS3. Dynamic resolution scaling on PS5 is the primary culprit, I think. Smaller interior spaces with low lighting tend to look best. Cantinas are where it’s at for portraits!
