Welcome to any gaming community! There’s always a few miserable people who aren’t happy with anything.

And if you don’t upgrade you won’t be able to play at all!

I play in 4k with DLSS turned off!

I first played it on a 5 year old computer and could barely get 10 fps on the lowest settings. I upgraded knowing that pretty much every other game now is wanting crazy hardware to run. I now have a very expensive top of the line rig that can run the game on max settings with a silky smooth 40 fps…which seems to be the max anyone can get even in benchmarking videos. I haven’t played this patch so not sure if that’s fixed yet.

Other than the ridiculous hardware requirements, the game is very much like all the other STALKER games. You wander around dreary forests and swamps completing quests or searching for items. If you liked the other games you’ll like this one.

Annoying parts for me have been all the walking and the mutants being bullet sponges. Walking takes up a lot of game time and I wish there was an option for fast travel. I know not everyone would want that but I’d personally like the choice. Sometimes I just want to get back to the settlement to trade my loot and don’t want to spend 20 minutes walking through an empty forest. I often run from mutants when I can because it’ll take 100 rounds to kill one and they don’t drop any loot.

Rust has become a very popular language for hobby projects but hasn’t gained lots of traction in professional development. It’s a joke to say finished Rust programs are like unicorns.

The Tumblr Effect

Because I’m a Gamer! A Gamer! The most oppressed minority on the planet!

But the author’s actual reason is:

Our hobby deserves better from the companies that made their billions on the backs of PC gaming

Which seems about as true as saying Microsoft made their billions on the backs of PC gaming.

The lead developers of Lemmy. They also develop the mobile Lemmy app Jerboa (personally, not my first choice).

You don’t program in Rust because you want to finish a project.

I believe it’s Steam Keys can be sold anywhere but they have to be for the same price as buying the game through Steam itself.

Also, Japan. My understanding is that everyone and their shiba inu plays MonHun in Japan.

That said, I ultimately think the 4k, 144+ fps gamers running expensive GPUs are offended that they can’t play this one on the highest settings, and are review bombing the hell out of this title.

I can understand. I haven’t played this game but I do have an expensive rig. If turning on dynamic lighting causes the game to stutter, then the dynamic lighting feature is broken. That’s not my machine’s fault. I don’t know exactly what settings aren’t working, but it seems like there are a few nobody can actually use. Negative reviews for a game with broken features is justified.

The person who wrote in “married sex”. I bet that deviant is probably into hand holding too.

More like banning USB sticks because between 2011 and 2021 KIA and Hyundai removed engine immobilizers from their car designs to save a few dollars which allowed their cars to be started by turning the ignition with literally anything.

It’s a flash game from 2008 and satirical.

That’s Richard Stallman. He made FreeBSD which is a distro of Linux.

You ever try to put together a GUI? I absolutely get why they look like crap! Although I have been having fun playing around with egui.

Can’t recommend it enough! I’ve tried Linux distros in the past but always found that there were hardware issues or certain programs didn’t work. Not to mention I essentially had to give up gaming. Linux was cool but I just couldn’t use it as my daily driver.

I switched to Pop!_OS last month and I’ve been blown away. The install was simple and straightforward and the only hardware that required special config was my gaming mouse that needed “libratbag” and “piper” to remap the extra buttons and adjust the RGB.

Other than that, all the programs I normally use like Discord, Dropbox, Steam, and every game I’ve tested so far work flawlessly. I don’t feel like I’m missing anything or had to give up something like I did before. I actually feel like I’ve upgraded since I’m loving the auto tiling window manager and multiple desktops that Pop!_OS has as options.

Every government does. I can’t think of a single law that exists because people signed a petition and not because there was massive social unrest surrounding the issue.

always read the contract. No matter what they tell you, what’s written there is what can be enforced

My friend signed with a publisher when he released his game. The reason he did it was because they offered to port his game to consoles as well as localize it to several languages. They said the fees for those services would be taken out of sales. My friend agreed because he though it gave him far more reach than if he just put the game up on Steam himself.

They charged him $50,000 for the porting and localization. The game hasn’t sold anywhere near that amount and he doesn’t expect it ever will. They will continue to take 70% of revenue (after Steam takes their cut!) until he makes up that debt. He’s lucky he asked for a cut because originally the contract read 100% to publisher until he pays off the debt. He wouldn’t have made any money at all!
