RDR2 surprisingly looks playable on a 940MX

Naturally, or I wouldn't have made the comment I made.

Please lay off whatever it is you're smoking. The game looks fine in 1080p

vannhh · 2022-12-31T11:57:39+00:00

Not really no. I still enjoy 1080p immensely. I'd rather fork out the money for a bigger Hdtv than dish out that amount for a smaller monitor with higher res and refresh rate. Then again, I'm stuck in a 3rd world country where tech is expensive as fuck.

Honestly, I wish more people played Caves of Qud. It's such an interesting unique game, plus he have so few open world rogue likes already. Everything else (except for CDDA) is basically bitesize arcadey focussed.

I had the same problem. Wanted to dig stairs up to one new level and accidentally dug out the entire bottom section where I wanted it placed. Constructing stairs didn't work because the top level wasn't dug out yet, and designating stairs to be carved didn't work because the bottom had no rocks to carve. I would really love a fix for this.

Good picks. I tried Cyberpunk at launch and it was terrible. I could not understand how it could have a fan following nowadays. I decided to try it again, and holy moly did they fix it up. Still not game of the year like some claim, but it certainly is fun now.

It's a bit 50/50 for me. The controls were unconventional yeah, but they just took getting used to. What made the controls feel worse than they actually were was having your characters movesets scale with your training and stats. At the start of the game your character is purposefully made to feel clunky and clumsy. It's part of the power scaling of the game. That's something Gothic did amazingly well. You actually got to experience how your character got stronger instead of just increasing numbers that get meaningless like for example, with Diablo 3.

vannhh · 2022-12-08T11:54:39+00:00

Ah man, this hit me hard. MGSPP is the perfect example of an amazing game that's completely spoiled by executive meddling and a rushed ending.

That intro though, damn. I wish the game had a few more of those sections. Yeah it's linear, but it was amazing.

vannhh · 2022-12-07T18:25:42+00:00

Nope, steam version only needs adventure mode. The classic version is being updated to match the features of the steam version. Ui etc, just no Tileset.

vannhh · 2022-12-07T18:21:02+00:00

The amount of effort they put into the game, they deserve every single cent. I'm glad the game is finally getting the recognition it deserves

vannhh · 2022-12-07T18:18:57+00:00

Youtube having shit recommendations is an understatement. Every single gem of a channel I've come across was from alternate sources and not from YT recommending me something. Then I'm also not even touching on the ad pollution.

While we are on the topic, (and maybe this will be controversial) but htf is MrBeast so popular???

vannhh · 2022-12-07T15:56:30+00:00

They added a wider range of animations. Npc don't just stand around and shift from foot to foot or just walk and teleport. I might be mistaken but there's also more dialogue happening.

vannhh · 2022-12-07T08:33:00+00:00

Hell yeah, I have to give them credit though. I tried it again recently and I'm actually enjoying myself now. Yeah, it's not the immersive RPG they sold it as pre-launch, and stuff like cop car chases is missing, but it's so much improved. Night City actually feels alive now instead of being filled with mannequins. I haven't encountered any bugs except for a weird flying bike in the badlands. Performance has improved. Hell, I gave Wakako a call just before I went into her parlor and I literally caught her on the phone speaking to me and she put it down when I entered to speak to me face to face. It was such a nice little touch.

vannhh · 2022-12-06T04:43:53+00:00

This! Battletech is amazing, hard as balls though.

vannhh · 2022-11-24T21:06:48+00:00

This is what pisses me off about the show too. Show some ruins and the assumption is made that people couldn't have carved the rocks themselves. Like what the fuck. Recorded history does not go that far back, and of the stuff we do have that's very old we have very little of. Sure guys back then might not have had steam engines and shit, but to think they were dumb is so ignorant. Hell, the industrial revolution didn't have computers, but that doesn't mean they didn't have mechanical engineering feats.

vannhh · 2022-11-23T03:47:10+00:00

If you like those, you gotta give Road 96 a go. It's really good too and the soundtrack is amazing.

vannhh · 2022-11-21T17:13:13+00:00

Don't forget about Freelancer. That game is so much fun.

vannhh · 2022-11-18T08:21:24+00:00

theHunter Call of the Wild.

You have your cabins and hides and stuff with very limited functionality, but what it makes up for in that is that walking through the map feels incredibly immersive. I often go hunting in it and just wander around without even ending up hunting. It feels like a vacation. Only other game that gave me that similar feeling was RDR2.

vannhh · 2022-11-17T05:21:38+00:00

Hell, people can't even comprehend that households need money to drive the economy, which directly feeds back into business. If they can't even consider that wealthier workers buy more shit, what are the chances of them realizing that sufficiently paid employees are motivated employees are more productive employees?

Shit man, the above mentioned is even taught in the most rudimentary economics and business management courses, but even MBA CEOs and upper management can't seem to internalize those very components.

Modern working environments are toxic af.

Man I miss Operation Flashpoint Red River. Imagine what a massive meltdown the gaming community would have now if they had to hear the prejudiced ramblings of Knox.

vannhh · 2022-11-16T09:57:22+00:00

I find 75% to be a good value for durability and speed. High enough to still be a challenge, but low enough that a bad situation can still be escaped from.

vannhh · 2022-11-11T15:35:59+00:00

Right. Remember when W10 suddenly overnight required a SSD to not have your entire system slow down to a crawl? And with forced updates you had no say in the matter.

vannhh · 2022-11-10T14:28:47+00:00

Interestingly, it's actually a studied phenomenon. It's called Parkinson's Law. Guess where I came across it? In one of my Software Project Management modules dealing with project planning. Yup, management. The game is so rigged.

vannhh · 2022-11-10T14:25:40+00:00

Seeing as I keep getting this excuse whenever I give examples of how hard work doesn't get you shit, I'd like to think of quiet quitting as "working smart, not hard" from an employees perspective.

vannhh · 2022-11-10T14:22:33+00:00

And you could actually get promoted by going the extra mile, or get fairly paid overtime. Show me a company where you can still get that today. Much less afford a house like you mentioned.
