NineSwords,

Baldur’s Gate 3 would be just as fulfilling of an RPG at half the length

I could take courses on rhetoric for the rest of my life and still wouldn’t be able to disagree more with that statement. If anything the game could need an act or two more.

Honestly, whenever I see someone complaining about a long game I wonder why they are in such a rush to finish it. What’s the problem with a 500 hour game? Just take your time. No need to finish it whenever you’re done with it, even if it’s only years later. But I guess gamers today just need their next dopamine fix and can’t be bothered anymore to invest some time into a game. After all the next overhyped game is just a week or so away and it absolutely needs to be played right at release! Best make every game like a 2 minute tiktok so gamers can consume at an even higher rate!

NineSwords,

Now you’re talking about the quality of a game. That’s a completely different discussion. I obviously take a good, short game over a long, bad game as well. But given that the quality is equal in all aspects, I would always take the longer game over the shorter one.

NineSwords,

To me, FSR2 always looks like shit. I use it when playing on my SD or Ally and the results always look horrible.

The trust is gone and Unity will never be able to gain it back. The damage is done.

I also wonder if this is just playing out as planned by Unity. Try to push out a change that will piss people off by adding a more egregious change and then say “we hear you” and roll back to the change they wanted to push initially.

NineSwords,

Depends on the TV. For gaming, it would be essential that it has some form of gaming/low latency mode.

Also, why would you pay extra for a “good” main board? That’s literally the one thing where you can go cheap without a problem if you’re not investing in the high-end segments of the other components.

As a sidenote: have you looked at something like a SteamDeck for your kid? It’s a full fledged PC that you kid can hook up to the TV and if you want to watch something on it the kiddo can still use it with the build in display. the base model is also dirt cheap for what you get.

NineSwords,

Same here. The only obvious bug I encountered was that Gale somehow was convinced that he and I spent a night together, which we definitively didn’t. I liked Act 3 best though. It felt like all the threads that were set up in the first two acts were coming together for a satisfying /interesting conclusion (stuff like the stolen Gith egg for example). I feel like the 3rd act swims or sinks depending on how many plotlines you’ve set up in your game until then.

NineSwords,

I genuinely felt tears well up in my eyes as we watched the Torment Stag boss fight – that moment cemented the fact that I want to play this game.

I somehow have my problems trusting a reviewer who gets teary-eyed because of watching some gameplay video.

NineSwords,

Press the left stick during dialogue choices and a little window will tell you what stats are used and if you get any boni on the rolls.

NineSwords,

They allegedly are the great minds that managed to create a supposedly impossible holy grail of science, but they are unable to focus a camera for their great demonstration? really?

NineSwords,

I guess we have to welcome room temperature superconductor into the illustrious circle of Aliens, the Sasquatch and Nessi.

NineSwords,

“Artist”

NineSwords,

Personally, I’ve have a wallpaper folder with around 7k+ pictures I’ve SD create for me. Am I an artist now? Should I put that on my resume? No, I’m not more of an artist as someone who commissioned an art piece from someone else. The only difference is that I tell an AI what I want instead of some person.

I’m not opposed to AI art, but I’m opposed to people who call themself artist because they put in an AI prompt into a textfield. It’s just a fucking cringing joke if I see someone like that call themself artist or “AI artist”.
