They’re still perfectly functional. As long as you’re happy not having ray tracing, and are willing to settle for not running everything on max gfx, there’s no reason to buy a 50, 40 or 30 series. I’m able to play most new games that interest me on medium gfx with no issues.


I’m still rocking my 1080ti and I paid $140 CAD when the 20 series dropped.


Yeah, I wasn’t able to get through xiii, too linear. XII is nice, mostly linear with some bounty hunting stuff to keep it fresh.



Don’t forget, 13 years on and multiple (re-)releases on various platforms, and there’s still bugs that are only fixed by mods.

Edit: ()







It’s already topped out fam…maybe it’s the shotgun I’m using…hmm…


I just played through the bulk of it, and it was quite good at first, but it started feeling very samey pretty quick. And now I’m so OP that all the gigs and missions I’m doing now are a dull cake walk. Just wading through dismembered viscera. I can’t even remember the last time I had to pop a heal…





Fuck off… that could literally mean anything… I’ve read Trump quotes that were more intelligible than that…


But even they eventually tacked goofy controllers onto an Android tablet and printed money by being the only console you can play on a bus.

There was a bit of hope from Sony with the PSP and then the Vita, but they didn’t seem to push it to the logical next step, like Nintendo did. Which was foolish, like the Vita had the PSTV version, and it was a bonehead move not to follow through with the trajectory they were already on.



And they do it because it works. It builds good will, shows that the product is high quality, clean and pure.


I like that indie games are bringing demos back. Like actually playable demos, not like a tech demo, the first 1-5 levels, so you can get a proper feel for the game before you shell out. 6 of the last 9 demos I played in the past year resulted in me purchasing the game.





This is a very common term. I encountered it back home in Canada frequently, and just as much here in the UK.


Cool… unfortunately my search is not turning up much. SCI.ai a science geared LLM was about 30% of my search results over Google and DDG. The other 70% is about Sierra’s Creative Interpreter, and a moisturizer additive had 2 hits.

Glad you gave me the synopsis, apparently I’m incapable of finding that info myself, regardless of what combination of AI/AGI/SCI/DIFFERENCES etcetcetc and nauseum.




I love that the Lemmy workshopped toaster has made it to the Steam page already.

Wish listed!


No worries for the context, it’s important to have as much info on a thing as possible.


They’re changing it because they discovered through this class action lawsuit that it’s cheaper to let it go to court.
I still think this is a good thing, but not necessarily being done for the good of the customer.



9/10 Game Publishers agree:
Pre-order is always the best order!


Oh totally! 1000%!!!

Just, uhhhh, trust me on that…no need to look into it, I already did that for you.


They probably would if they weren’t being payed by lobby groups not to. Or at least one would hope they would.


Did we all forget about the study from Mozilla on vehicle data collection?

The fact of the matter is that every single new connected product is collecting data on anyone who uses it. Once the data is collected, it’s sold. Once it’s on the market, that data is used by every country. China will eventually get data on US drivers regardless of what make they drive, the US government just wants first dibs.
I’m not one of those people who think that China and Russia are some kind of utopic ideal we should all be working towards. The US government is also not a shining beacon of ethics.



I mean… Skyrim is ok, I wouldn’t say it’s amazing…one of the weakest installments of TES. And then they beat every last cent out of it.

This game should have come out in 2016 at the latest.

Absolutely. I’m surprised they didn’t try to release a version for calculators…



Sorry, what?!?

Fucking getting this when I’m home from work!


This was a really good read, and I will definitely be keeping an eye out for any more you do.

The Jin-Roh reference? Fucking Chef’s Kiss!
One of my favourite movies of all time, not just anime, that film is SSS Tier cinematography and I don’t care if people think you shouldn’t use cinematography in reference to animation.
