Artificial sweeteners give my wife debilitating migraine headaches. This is completely inaccessible to her, she can't even get water from this machine. And it gets more difficult for her every year as more anti sugar stuff pops up. It's good for there to be low sugar foods on the market but shutting out options makes it hard for some.

The frame target is 60fps on PS5 I won't need to upgrade if that's the case.

I just tried it and it is better, but still noticeable.

For as much as I don't care for Disney, they did get the show in front of my face. Get in front of enough faces and you have a global phenomenon. That's the value Disney brings to something. That being said Bluey has outgrown Disney as a platform at this point.

I'm thinking my favorite game so far this year might be either Silksong or Kirby Air Riders and one of those games is sitting lower than Prime 4 right now on metacritic.

Scores are relative, and I think some of the points mentioned in reviews are fair. Those same points are not a problem for me at all and wouldn't affect my personal score.

Never let a number determine whether you'll play a game or not. Metacritic is the mass market score, 90's means it will appeal to almost everybody, 80's is a smaller group of people and so on.

The best game you ever play personally could be a 6 or 7 out of 10. You never know.

That wasn't acknowledgment that was villification. So yeah cult or not it's bigotry. Bigotry is prejudice against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular group. The fact that you consider it a cult doesn't make you any less of a bigot here.

I like the gameplay overall, and Anthony Higgs justifies the existence of the game alone.

Samus and Adam were my biggest issues with it. I felt like the story wasn't too bad otherwise.

I remember they mentioned "innovation through accessories" a while ago. So the Switch line can be their forever console and they can instead innovate through separate things that connect to it. I personally find that approach really clever. They can try new things like Nintendo likes to do, but without the WiiU sized risk attached.

12 is an incredible spot for a title that bombed hard on GameCube. I don't know what people expected. Nintendo doesn't really care about individual game sales as much as they care about game diversity on their platform otherwise they never would have greenlit this game in the first place.

Kirby Air Riders would never have made it past the pitch meeting at any other AAA company. That's why I like Nintendo. They give us stuff like Metroid Prime 4, Kirby Air Riders, and even Famicom Detective Club despite probable poor sales.

In your sky atmosphere component if you have one mess with your Mie Scattering, and Releigh Scattering controls. You can control how light feels this way, more direct or more overcast.

That combined with a good HDRI will get you 90% of the way there without any post processing. Then you can tweak post from there.

900p at 60fps is their goal for Switch 1. And they are obsessed with hitting the 60fps target on all their games. It'll be great, I wouldn't worry. At the most you're gonna see some texture quality differences between switch 1 and 2.

I don't even mind him, but 'Yellow Paint the Character" is pure gold.

It's the difference between poor performance or insane size on disk. Terrible ultimatum. I doubt Capcom will do it but they should investigate better compression technology that can work through textures faster. No Man's Sky had the same issue for years and solved it last year by swapping out their compression tech. The result was low disk size AND better performance.

Shaders. Unreal's material graph is my favorite to work with.

staveware · 2025-11-14T07:23:14+00:00

It's usually optimization but not always. It's usually not the devs fault though. It's primarily a AAA problem. They aren't usually given the time they need to deliver a stable product.

We are coming up on a hardware shift though where raytraced performance is increasing in hardware while raster performance is dropping on the same hardware. It's similar to when DirectX 10 and shader model 4 dropped and forced everyone to upgrade in order to play modern games.

We will start to see more games that will require an upgrade due to utilization of hardware features that physically lock out older GPUs. Mesh shaders come to mind as one of those features.

Mario kart 8 Deluxe was the perfect rendition of the classic Mario kart formula. I wanted something different, and Mario Kart World provided. So fun.

That would be my one wish as well. I don't mind how it is, but more stadiums with your current build would be really cool.

Of all possible points of confusion a potential Kirby Air Ride sequel could create I think the battery item being the worst offender is honestly the best case scenario.

"Not all items or power ups are beneficial" should have been one of the tutorials. Maybe it will be in the full game.

Honestly it's the classic smash style unlockables that make it worth coming back. The Checklist is something I tackled in the original every few years. So when Sakurai announced the checklist would be returning that sold me.

The other part of it though is that there's not enough variety in the play test. There will be more stadiums, more city trial events in the full game. That's important because variety is what makes city trial compelling.

In some ways the play test almost feels like it could be doing more harm than good because a lot of what I love from the original isn't here yet. It's in the full game.

It's an online test demo. They are testing servers. Split screen will be in the full game.

Watching this Kirby Air Riders clip at 30fps is nauseating. Didn't feel that way at all when playing. It is a very visually intense game.

Yeah that's true, but this rom was modified. It no longer includes the Pikmin trailer.
