  1. This is old but always like how he did this video LOL
  2. Tje games that I do ahve Auto saves nowdays and I have not had any erors like that before, I mostly backup my saved files. But if the game offers a svae option that you can do it yourself then I do it πŸ™‚ same games you have console to open and type in a command to save the game πŸ™‚
  3. Honsite, Nothing to my minde at all since I just do not do consoles. I mean games that are made for PC are for PC and should be for PC only πŸ™‚ If they allow it for other platforms that more trolls and cheaters and whatnot will be just madness.
  4. I've been saying this for years that Indie is not synonymous with virtuous, better, or creative. It simply means "poor". The big studios, today, were once garage/basement projects. Give enough time and money to Indie studios, and they will become just like the AAA studios. The only difference is that the Indie studios are 30 years late to the party.
  5. It's not that people hate it, it's just that all the praise for the game drown out almost all of the criticism of the game. I think it's a thing that games will increasingly confront though, and that's the divide between games as a storytelling medium and games as an activity. The combat in Bioshock was, lame in my opinion anyway. The shooting was weak, it was extremely one dimensional, the powers were cool looking, but not really that interesting from a gameplay standpoint. It got to the point for me that the actual combat got in the way of the rest of the game. Most of it seemed like they were just looking for excuses to throw bodies at you in order to pad out the game's length with combat. As a pure story it felt like parts of it were sacrificed for the gunplay. But as a pure gunplay game it felt like it was just half baked. It was beautifully crafted and had some great themes and a wonderful setting, but I personally felt it fell really flat.
  6. CHeaper to get a desktop with GPU in it or make your own πŸ˜›
  7. Dark Souls seems to carry a lot of themes from Heidegger's Contributions, his lectures on Nietzsche and Nietzsche's Will to Power, especially the ideas of a eternal recurrence, fading flames and oblivion, although because both game and writer here are pretty difficult, that would be a tougher sell. I might expand on these ideas in a video at some point, if I find the time. If you want some philosophical games, I'd recommend the YouTube channel Errant Signal, who does more in-depth analysis' at games, especially more thought-provoking indie ones that might escape your radar otherwise.
  8. Depends on what work that you are doing, I have a gaming rig that's built for streaming and gaming, but can be used as everyday PC user for work also, Perfect since I have screens setup that's 27inch and nice and easy and good for work. On that note I have a 15inch laptop that I use allot also that can be used for everyday use.
  9. Now this is the weired of all weired videos 😜
  10. People keep saying that the TGP isn't going to make that big of a deal on the 3080s, but the Zephyrus Duo 15 SE was only pulling 27 FPS in Cyberpunk at 4k w/Ray Tracing and DLSS on. And that's not a cheap machine, at $3700. It's great to see the GE76 hitting 47 fps w/ the exact same settings. Maybe this generation of cards isn't just a dud after all. πŸ™‚
  11. Truly impressive level of performance in a thin and light 2-in-1. Perfect for those that are looking for something small and simple and raw power and is always on the go. G14 looked almost perfect, If it just had a webcam! Asus did it right with this one! Wounder if there is a Intel verion of this model and end of the day I still stick to Desktops.
  12. If people can't afford consoles, how can they afford an iphone, or an Internet connection fast and unlimited enough for game streaming? Google Stadia uses about 20GB per hour. That's bytes not bits. Your game will go to shit as soon as someone else in your house starts watching Netflix. Ten again you don't need an iPhone to use Stadia. Any 1080p Android device will probably be fine, but still. The appeal of Goodle Stadia is absolutely not exclusivity. It is about not having to buy games or hardware to play. The idea is not new, but previous efforts were hampered by lag. Google has a chance to pull it off because if anyone can overcome the technological problems, it's them, and because they own youtube.
  13. woah man this looks AMAZING 🀩 the animation is on point ! The person that made these animations must be very talented! LOVE IT ! Definitely gonna check this game out that has up-beat suspenseful dark music with every character in cinematic barely moving and showing no personality whatsoever besides the voice :v

    ASUS TUF Gaming F17

    Does look good but it's a 2020 model and now there are far more newer models πŸ™‚ I've heard bad things about the screens being high latency even with the 144hz and bad screen quality picture. I do not know if it was true or even been resloved, glad to see some models have 1660ti πŸ˜‰ even that they are not aiming at those cards anymore.
  15. Just wanna let you know ,that Acer has also decided to release their version with i5 for 89k in India ,but haven't declared the TDP of the 3060. ANd told that bios is not updated on the asus models LOL
  16. Used to with Xbox store or also known as gold, but I was paying for nothing and bad enough having amazon prime and twitch subs on channels and then NetFlix. But other then that nothing really.
  17. I've read books from the Halo series like, The Fall of Reach, The Flood. I also own Cryptum but have yet to finish it (can't get past the first couple chapters) Of the ones I've read, I'd recommend The Fall of Reach, First Strike. They were all written by the same guy, Eric Nylund and so they have a consistency to them that the other books don't quite have. I felt the other books were okay reads at best. If you''re into the Halo games, they have tons of backstory in them, but I don't know what it was about them that threw me off. Maybe the writing style or the fact that, aside from The Flood, they don't follow the Chief.
  18. Games that I do are mostly simulators and so it means I do realism and do realism as much as I can πŸ˜‰ Flight sims anso my point saying that realism gets my votes here.
  19. Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Indeed I think you have πŸ˜› Then again it is in away thought from the text video and talking about you know who πŸ˜›
  20. It's 2020 and nowdays you can pickup a beast of a system that you can do all in one πŸ™‚ Even at times people and myself can be shocked to what a PC can do, πŸ™‚ You can spend $3000 or more on one single gaming rig or have $1200 streaming PC and $2000 gaming system or less. Keep in mind that having two system setup also means you need more gear, like sounds, mixer and capture card and so on. My gaming PC does it all in one and with no proplems, It does it easy. Even doing MSFS2020 and streaming. OBS nowdays does not take or eat allot, improved as time goes on with hardware. I say build a beats of a PC (all in one) and do everything in one πŸ™‚ Cooling! not a proplem get AIO and the best.
  21. Bethesda's games are a perfect example. They were pretty clearly developed with first person in mind, the scale of every object and environment and the positioning of things makes sense with that viewpoint, and the animations are done with that in mind as well. Switching to third, sizes look off, animations are floaty and weird, and the whole thing just starts to look and feel terrible. For a reverse, see the first person mod for GTA IV (or was it V?). The game looks great in third person but when you switch to first person the sizes of things look off and the models start to look terrible when you're so close.
  22. In Dark Souls 3 there are these dudes called jailers, if they so much as look at you too long it deletes your life bar. I don’t mean it just does damage, it literally takes away 90% of your actual hp bar capacity. Thankfully it does come back, but quite slowly, so for the next few seconds pretty much anything will one shot you. Then there’s a room with 12 of those fuckers. Not fun.
  23. They are an amercian brand πŸ™‚ Makes a change for it not to be an China or where ever. Based in San Francisco, thy been going for 30 or more years now. No idea what year they started.
  24. They are, What I see between TUF vs ROG is that TUF is the lowest cheaper price range where you still get the bells and whistles but less tech and less build, as for the ROG you pay for a far better build, stronger plastic and refresh rate and other specs are higher. THen again with ROF series you do pay double amount. TUF and ROG same Monoitor alike yet $300 difference.
  25. Never gets old and I do like it though, I mean you have heard of this song before right? Back in the 90s πŸ™‚ Was not always the best but people like to play the song and it was big back then.
