Competitive gaming is a cesspool regardless of gender but I feel for women who have to deal with sexism on top of the default toxicity. Hopefully things will improve over time but i don’t have high hope for the near future sadly

In no particular order:

• Warhammer 40k Mechanicus
• Total Annihilation
• Doom 2016
• Hotline Miami
• Rome Total War
• Witcher 3
• Halo
• StarCraft

Couldn’t even answer my question lol

Well the votes need to mean something obviously. North Koreans also vote, would you class NK as a democracy?

Hope its good! I havent been a fan of the last couple of BF games but have many many hours in bad company 2 and bf3

Hmm, yeah the ethno-state that is china has never done anything wrong, especially not to its own citizens.

What will the Chinese government do to me?

What will a democratic government do to you?

Nations are allowed to choose alternative forms

Sure, but the people of china don’t have much say. If they voice a critical opinion they’re silenced, doesn’t seem like they’re allowed to choose.

I’m sure you’ve heard the Churchill quote: “Indeed it has been said that democracy is the worst form of Government except for all those other forms that have been tried from time to time.”

You’d rather live under a dictatorship than in a democracy? That’s an interesting opinion, not without its merit I’ll admit. A benevolent dictator can be the most effective form of government, the problem is what happens after they’re gone.

This discussion started with the question “is it better to have a democracy or a dictatorship spy on you” but sure.

China is a communist country governed by one political party that allows only limited democratic activity.

Interesting quote from your link. I’f they adopt democracy and allow fair elections then it wouldn’t be a problem but maybe that’s too European for your liking

This was never about performance, I hope we get more competitive products.

A democracy is the people voting lol. You also get what you vote for, some people vote against themselves. Nice thing about China is the state knows best and you dont need to vote :)

Yeah, North Korea too

It’s theoretically a democracy, china isnt

Imagine the audacity of a video creator to publish a video on a video platform, what has society come to smh

Not arguing FPS here lol. Arguing 4k, which you can run in 144hz in a lot of games even without a 5090, you failed to mention if you had tried 4k which I assume you haven’t based on the switch to FPS instead of resolution

The entire move to the realtime raytracing paradigm, which has enabled AAA game devs to get very sloppy with development by not really bothering to optimize any lighting, nor textures

You clearly don’t know what you’re talking about here. Ray tracing has nothing to do with textures and very few games force you to use RT. What is “allowing” devs to skimp on optimization (which is also questionable, older games weren’t perfect either) is DLSS and other dynamic resolution + upscaling tech

Have you tried 4k? The difference is definitely noticeable unless you play on like a 20" screen

Good video! Slightly annoying that it’s one of those “group channels” with multiple creators uploading. I’d like to subscribe to this guy but then I’ll get a bunch of other random videos I don’t care for :(

Yeah I commented before I watched it. Good video though and I wonder how this ends now with him figuring out they’re from Russia and might be connected with the day before

Really reminds me of Dredge, I don’t usually use the term but this really seems like a copycat game. All of this looks prerendered as well so I wonder how much of a game they actually have

EvoPsych?

That’d be neat, I’ll Google to see if someone has tried it. Otherwise I’ll just wait till it comes to steam, which I hope it will eventually

Ah nice, missed that it released. Shame about the epic store limitation but nice of them to allow you to buy it from them directly. Would prefer to buy it on Steam so i can play it on my deck though

I generally agree with you but watch this video, it’ll show what steam could look like

Probably correct lol, twitch chat is the worst

It had me intrigued at first but it didn’t really lead anywhere. Overrated game with pretty dated graphics imho

Or they could release one per week, two batches isn’t really “starting to get wise to that” imho. Either way, being patient is the best and only paying for one month

Ticktick is great but op said they weren’t looking for subscriptions
