CrossCode was SO good! It’s a great game and I’m always thrilled when I find others that played it.

Did you know its studio, Radical Fish, has another game coming?


Not OP, but I’m about 8 hours in and love it so far. It definitely has a few things I’d prefer it tweak, like a lack of HDR support on PC and no custom map markers, but they’re simply annoying, not deal breakers.



I didn’t have to vet your profile at all to figure out you’re worth blocking. You did all the work for me.


I made a mistake: point three was dripping with sarcasm, so I followed with a line meant to highlight this, but I unthinkingly wrote it in the same highly sarcastic manner.

Do you actually just assume random people are racist for zero reason in your day to day life?

I have no idea what you’re trying to infer. Please tell me this isn’t a prelude to “all racism has some truth to it”.


Things that break immersion for some gamers:

  1. Main character isn’t a white cishet male

  2. NPCs that don’t reinforce the primacy of white cishet males

  3. Acceptance of non-cis/het people in a story involving fantasy creatures that is otherwise totally believable, well-written, and, above all, where only this scene is clumsily delivered (and not the fact the supporting character’s hat appears to be a folded bird)

No sarcasm in the third point at all. (Edit: That’s more sarcasm where I’m indicating I’m being sarcastic in point three)


I agree 100%. I’d love a AAA game that uses the studio’s clout not for cutting edge graphics but a stellar, polished story and gameplay. The story doesn’t even need to be DEEP, just solid.



This makes sense, you get physical copies! I haven’t purchased a physical copy in so long it didn’t even occur to me. Thanks for the explanation.


But why? Why do you pre-order? Does it gain you something that waiting until the launch date doesn’t provide?


Same, I was tired of having my ass handed to me then being tea bagged by preteens talking shit about my lack of skills and/or my mother. Excuse me for not playing FPSs eight hours every day after school like you, good Sir Acne.


I also had a good Sea of Stars cry. Totally worth playing. It sounds like DLC for it will drop in 2025 too.





I agree, but I have a problem I don’t know how to overcome. Maybe someone here has an idea.

I’m ADHD as fuck.

It’s the inattentive type and it cuts both ways. It’s not uncommon for me to turn on my phone and get distracted from what I had intended to do by notifications. On the flip side, if I don’t have notifications to let me know to check something, I may just forget the app exists entirely. If it’s something important, that’s not great.

Anyone have any ideas?


Playing this game anew would be an upside to early onset dementia for me.



Their advice on pulling another thread is the way to go. Don’t even do something you think is related, just go do something new. You might find it’s related after all.


We Love Katamari REROLL+ Royal Reverie. I’m a huge Katamari fan and this port is just fantastic. Great for just relaxing and the soundtrack is fire.


Here’s my setup. We own a 65" LG G3 and I often game on it. We sit about 4 meters away. I’m a PC gamer and run a 3080. For what it’s worth, I have 20/10 vision (although the trade-off is I’m a bit far sighted).

While I can see a difference between 1080p and 4k, it’s pretty minimal for both 3D and 2D, to the point where I have to be looking for it. When I’m playing a game, it’s not really noticeable at all. It’s a bit more noticeable up close but I never have cause to sit just a meter away. This has all been confirmed by my wife and multiple friends and family members who have checked out our setup prior to buying a new television or done the same comparison themselves.

We even did a fun experiment (I’m a scientist so I love experiments). We ran the same game in 4k or 1080p with otherwise identical graphics settings, but with the resolution chosen at random by someone else, and tried to discern the resolution at our normal sitting distance while playing the game as we normally would. The results were equivalent to choosing randomly.

Lastly, a friend was all for buying an 8k television prior to my 1080p/4k demonstration. They now have the even larger 77" version of my television and, at about 5 meters away, the difference is still pretty minimal.

So I happily game at 1080p with the settings cranked up.


Oooh, that looks awesome! I’m not op but was browsing for ideas. Thanks for the recommendation.


They’re not shit, but a lot of people don’t realize that a big reason they’re quieter is because they don’t spin as fast, therefore they’re moving less air. Noctua is typically trading cooling performance for less noise, which can also be achieved by throwing a resistor inline on a non-Noctua fan.

That being said, their motors are higher quality and, at least in my experience, tend to last longer than cheap fans.


Absolutely the worst service. For my last motherboard, I had to RMA it four times before they fixed my issue. It took nearly five months to get running and lasted less than a year before dying again, this time out of warranty. Every ASUS monitor I’ve purchased in the last few years has died. I’ll never buy anything from ASUS again.
