God damnit; you had me sold up until the very end. :(

The gameplay is boring and the story is confusing; don’t bother unless you just want some eye candy to show off what your 4090/5090 can do. The game is a heavily polished turd.

Can anyone recommend a good multiplayer shooter with a high player population? (Either 2D or VR is fine.) Or any non-MMO, non-role-playing PvP game that is mostly online and has populated servers? Something my 37-year-old ass can just jump into and play a quick match without having to dedicate my life to it?

Getting sick of all the PUBGs, Counter-Strikes, Call of Duties, and Overwatches/Marvel Rivalses. My best gaming memories were during the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 days. I never had more fun in a shooter than when I was playing Rush. But unfortunately EA never managed to recapture that same magic in the sequels. After the 2042 flop I quit Battlefield for good.

Mafia 2 is the only one worth playing.

Because Borderlands is boring and repetitive, especially if you don’t have a friend group to play with.

You don’t play games or watch movies on your PC? Not even YouTube?

You seriously don’t know what HDR is? Really? Then we have nothing further to discuss.

If you don’t have a motherboard with a TPM in it by now, then you’re way overdue for an upgrade anyway.

They’re right though. 8.1 had the best of both 7 and 10, with none of the bloat. Only reason why I stopped using it was because I was forced to because literally no one supported it. Which is a damn shame cause it was considerably better than 7. Just got a bad rep because of 8.0.

Windows 11 is great with some tweaks and has by-far the best HDR implementation of any OS, bar none. I’m getting so sick and tired of people who don’t even use it hating on it constantly. Y’all have done this with every new Windows release except 7 and 98SE. Win11 is a great companion to Arch. Get over yourselves already.

Good god they’re such fucking losers.

Are you trying to make everyone hate you, Nintendo? Give it up already.

I don’t understand this game. It just looks like shitty video poker with joker cards involved for some reason. Why are there so many joker cards?

China exclusive models, labeled as such to get around regulations.

You’re forgetting about the #1 reason why Ray Tracing is so good: it saves hard drive space because you don’t need to pre-bake lighting, when it’s rendered in realtime. You should be a fan for that reason alone. Games have gotten too large.

The dialog is so much better in London.

It’s only a 35GB download; give it a chance.

Fallout: London is so good, I can’t believe that it’s a free mod. It feels like a standalone Fallout title. Can’t believe they convinced all those amazing voice actors to work for free. The level of detail put into the game world is beyond impressive as well.

Yeah seriously, no matter how much they tack on, it still doesn’t make the base game fun to play. Nothing more boring than a game that feels like a job.

That’s the one thing that frustrates me the most about these games, too. Minutes fly by like seconds, but the Sims move in realtime! There’s never enough time to actually do anything in the game! So I keep my Sims unemployed and just cheat.

Been playing The Sims since 2001; in all those years I have never seen anyone release a timescale mod for any of the games. So when do play, most of my time is spent in Build/Buy mode.

I want to enjoy this game but I just can not wrap my head around all the heroes and their abilities. There’s way too many of them.

Which is odd, because I didn’t have much issue figuring out Overwatch during the open beta back in 2016. Am I just getting old in my 30s, or is Marvel Heroes legitimately more complex than OW was back then?

I know. I commented before finishing your comment and immediately deleted it, but it didn’t actually delete. Happens to me all the time on Lemmy.

My bad; please ignore that comment.

My solution is to simply sit closer. I only need 125% scaling.

If that’s not an option for you, you can always hit WinKey++ for the hard-to-read parts. There’s also Ctrl++ for browsers.

Yes

lol good. Fuck Nintendo

It needs PvP though

No I don’t think it’s World of Warcraft

You don’t think corporate greed is evil? Not as evil as the shit going down in Israel and the current state of US politics (amongst so many other things), but still evil nonetheless.

I need Windows to die because I’m tired of having to use it just to get proper HDR and Nvidia support. Or at the very least, AMD GPUs need to get better.

That’s what pisses me off so much. Instead of releasing a console with decent performance, they rather sue their fans into oblivion, just because they want to run their games @ 4K 120Hz. I wouldn’t need a Switch emulator if their god damn console wasn’t so weak. It can’t even handle 30 FPS in many titles, let alone 120+. It’s not like these are demanding titles, either. I’ve played mobile games with better graphics. There’s no excuse.

I literally could not care less. Thanks to their relentless pursuit of emulator developers and fans who mod their games, Nintendo is dead to me. I’ll never understand why they choose to sue their biggest, most dedicated fans into oblivion. It’s pure evil.

It didn’t work before? I’ve been using it for years to find my devices and I’ve never had an issue.

Recommend some anyway. I can’t enjoy most single player games without mods (or at least a trainer).

Same. Mostly because I don’t want the experience to ever end (and because it’s been so long that I forgot where I was and what I was doing if I don’t start over). Apparently it’s an ADHD thing.

I’ll play one game at a time, binge the hell out of it, then stop right before I beat it (if it’s a single player title) and then never touch it again for at least 5 years.

Fallout: New Vegas

How? Did you dig an old PC out of storage?

I can’t get New Vegas to run on a modern PC without it constantly crashing, even when with the fan patches and mods that supposedly allow it to work on newer PCs. Please share your secrets.

Seriously. Don’t understand why people like those games. Boring lore and repetitive gameplay.

My phone just displays a little “6” where the plus sign is when I’m connected to WiFi 6.

How did this person find the time and dedication to complete so many god damn games in just a year? They beat more games this year than I have in my entire life! I get bored or run out of time before I get anywhere near finishing a game.

Where do you find the time to not only play, but beat so many games? No job and no SO?

In my 36 years here on earth, I’ve completed maybe 3-4 games total. In my entire life. I almost always get bored or don’t have the time to finish the ones I start. I prefer online games anyway because single player bots tend to be stupid and predictable.

I misread your comment and thought you said “RFK”. I have no idea what an “RFC” is. Some sort of teletype thing?
