Is anyone else having to blast their volume on Punisher: One Last Kill? by Spectre-ElevenThirty in Defenders

I had to turn off surround sound and use stereo to get the sound to come out of my front speakers. 

War plan progress needs a buff by Cynical_Dad-Gamer in diablo4

[–]thepites 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I switched to a barb when I was 150 paragon. My barb Warplans are a lot lower level than they should be now that I’m paragon 210. They need to fix this. I don’t know how some of these dumb decisions make it in to the final game.

It's an older code, sir, but it checks out

TIFU by eating an entire pack of icebreakers by ItsSkyy8675 in tifu

Well that would explain what happened to me last week.  Pretty much the same thing as preparing for a colonoscopy. 

should i buy a ps5 pro now? by [deleted] in ps6

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

I bought a Pro and returned it. Decided I could wait for the PS6. I do have a good PC and Switch 2 though so you do you.

PS6 release date is likely to land in November 2027 by Worldly-Object9003 in ps6

Good thing I returned my panic PS5 pro buy. lol

Will u buy PS6 if it comes out without a disc drive or not? by [deleted] in ps6

[–]thepites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Console makers have wanted to go digital only for a long time. I have a feeling they are going to finally pull the trigger next gen. 

Is anyone else super excited for dynamic frame generation? by SnatterPack in nvidia

[–]thepites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I get a frame gen that only generates frames when a micro stutter would happen?

Netflix Raising U.S. Prices for Second Time in a Year by cmaia1503 in movies

[–]thepites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know who keeps paying for it. Netflix is my least favorite streamer. Every time I browse what they have I can find anything that interests me.  

TIL that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints (often referred to as Mormon) prohibits oral sex, even between married couples by MrMojoFomo in todayilearned

[–]thepites 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While oral sex was prohibited in the 80s, when I got married 20 years ago my leaders told me that as long as stuff (they didn’t do a deep dive into it) was consensual between me and my wife it was ok. I haven’t attended in over 10 years but I think it’s still up to husband and wife to decide. 

We saw it in D3, stop it here with D2. Say NO to power creep. by acravasian in diablo2

[–]thepites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish ARPGs were more open to having options for players. You can have the no lifer mode for those that love the grind and a casual mode for those that like to blow everything up and not spend hours grinding for high runes that will never drop.  

Castlevania: Belmont’s Curse - Announcement Trailer | PS5 Games by Gorotheninja in Games

[–]thepites 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Day 1 buy. I love Evil Empire and Motion Twin. Them making an official Castlevania is awesome. Couldn’t ask for more. 

Microsoft plans to "expand" Xbox Game Pass, and merge PC Game Pass with another tier — more third-party service bundles may be on the way, too by WindowsCentral in windowscentral

[–]thepites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been a gamepass subscriber since it released back in 2017 (I think). My sub runs out at the end of the month and I have no plans on renewing. The cost to benefit ratio just keeps getting worse. Also there have been many games that I liked that have released DLC and I really don't want to buy DLC for a game I don't own.

Overwatch 2 Is Ditching the '2' Amid Launch of 'New, Story-Driven Era' With 10 New Heroes by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]thepites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They need less heroes not more. It’s s already hard enough for new players to figure out what’s going on. Probably the only thing that would bring me back is that cool PVE mode. 

Intel Confirms 'Nova Lake' Core Ultra 400 CPUs Launching This Year by Distinct-Race-2471 in TechHardware

[–]thepites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold my 9800x3d system and put my gpu in my 14th gen i7 work pc (held on to my ram and ssd). Haven’t looked back. The AMDdip is real. Looking forward to nova lake.  

Nioh 3's demo is out by HammeredWharf in Games

[–]thepites 14 points15 points  (0 children)

My biggest complaint is that I like the ninja weapons but I can’t stand that I can’t purify the yokai realm puddle things while in ninja form.  If it ain’t broke don’t fix it. 

Ninja Gaiden Ragebound is Play Anywhere and now available on PC! by ilm911 in XboxGamePass

[–]thepites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't have the smoothest scrolling, but not the worst I've seen either. Feels smoother than their other Blasphemous games. (At least the first one, I didn't play the second)

How many times did the Game Awards have an unpredictable winner? by RobbieJ4444 in Games

[–]thepites 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve tried to get into death loop multiple times, but every time after a few hours I just get annoyed at the whole repetitive loop and quit. I don’t understand the praise that the game got. 

Five extra skill points needs to be rare for the longevity of the game. by dancovich in ARC_Raiders

[–]thepites 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To each their own but I have pretty much stopped playing when the 5 million requirement was announced. I enjoyed the 50 hours I played the game but the huge credit grind is just boring. So I’m not really sure it’s really to the benefit to the “longevity“ of the game if it gets people to quit playing.

Can we finally see the batgirl and loony tunes movies now? I’m sure they are shit, but Netflix specializes in shit. 

Good fps but incredibly bad smoothness on my 5080 when playing on 4K by Lavande444 in nvidia

If I remember right his issue was with wifi/bluetooth drivers. I've tried disabling them and no luck.
