There’s story videos now, dafuq…

Follow him on nebula. It’s a nice platform afaik, and remunerates content creators better.

It’s not even skill, it’s laziness and pride. The game has a quest tracker (limited to 3 concurrent quests) and also tracks quest characters. It’s just sheer utter laziness and refusal to read anything beyond a sentence and the hubris to think that if they are stuck, it’s the game’s problem, the issue is never them, they are never to blame for any shortcoming or inadequacy. That’s why they mentioned Avowed, it’s as deprived of any actual interactivity as it can be. It’s completely a fantasy on rails shooter. It’s basically a mobile game sold on steam for 70€.

That was exactly the reason, it was factual that simplicity played a massive role in this discussion. The game has quest tracking but it’s limited to 3 active quests. It also has an extensive quest log. Rather than calling out their obvious incapability of reading a sentence, I opted to direct them towards games more geared to the effort they are ostensibly willing to put into a game. The fact them and their alt/cronies turned this into a brigade, should inform anyone what is the level of human being we’re dealing with here. Victimhood olympics, the US merican specials. Hasan Minaj put it better than I ever will be able to. Anything for fake sympathy points.

So, reddit…

Headline in a couple of years:

Open AI’s Cop GPT opens fire on an unsuspecting black family visiting texas from Georgia. Sam Altman claims auto pilot disengaged 1ms before the trigger was pressed so it’s the fault of the soldier holding the abort button.

George is a veritable treasure. Highly recommend his videos on Pentiment.

I feel your pain fellow SFF enthusiast. I did my homework this time though, and that’s why I paid a bit above MSRP but it did take a bit of attention and careful planning, including dedication to snatch a fitting model from the claws of the scalpers. All in all I paid roughly 110% MSRP for a nice custom model. Also, the Louqe Raw S1 is just an absolutely amazing sff if you don’t have special requirements for storage space.

Xtx for 900$ last year is a helluva good deal. You’re not missing out, with the added bonus you can load some hefty LLMs with that massive VRAM for consumer GPU standards, while paying a fraction of the only other worthy competitor, the 4090. Kudos

I can see some 5080s in the same picture. They can gtfo with those ridiculous prices. I got my 9070xt at close to MSRP, little more than 1/3 of local 5080 prices for 85-90% of the performance (and day one support for open source drivers…)

Good luck trying this within the EU.

COPD is the fourth leading cause of death worldwide. That’s the entire universe of people in the world.

I guess WHO also downplays mental health because their take is actually quite similar to my take, you know, the only responsible adult in this thread…

I don’t know why I’m even bothering to entertain this conversation. Good day.

Oh ffs, grow up. Nobody is downplaying the effects of mental health, just asking people to be reasonable. That’s, however, anno 2025, too much to ask. Everyone exists in hyperbole and asinine takes.

PTSD is eminently treatable and manageable. It doesn’t naturally degenerate, it sucks but you can live till you’re old. Black lung, COPD are chronic, degenerative diseases that will eventually make you gasp for air till you die while your loved ones look on without being able to do anything.

This is beyond stupid, I don’t know when we, as a civilisation, reached a point where people can’t understand shades of grey anymore and live in absolutes only.

I hope not, i seriously hope not…

Every single one of the components of my comment are factual, I did not insult anyone, and gave pretty good advice, recommending a good game that a lot of people like. The way they are interpreted is not on me.

Is it though? In a world of limited time refunds, someone complains about something that is the exact ethos of a game, I tell them, probably not for you, play AC shadows, which is undoubtedly a good game for people who want a more accessible open world experience than KCD that is less demanding of your attention and less punishing of your time. Likely, in time for a full refund so they’re not stuck with something they find obnoxious, but I’m the ass for telling someone not to stick to something they clearly don’t like and get something more tailored to their taste. Maybe you should take your own advice, stick with me, ask me what I mean, go past whatever you interpreted my comment meant initially and see if it’s better to have someone frustrated at a game or have them play something they will like better.

Wholeheartedly disagree, these are the same arguments levied against the souls games and yet, it’s that opaqueness and steep learning curve that created such a tight knit and engrossing community. Arguably, some of the best games ever made.

Don’t have to but highly advised to do so. It will contextualise significant parts of the background and character histories. The first one is also a masterpiece, so you should try it out and see if the game type is your cup of tea, with the benefit of a lower upfront investment. If you like it, when you’re done with it, the second one may even be cheaper at the time and you get some more of that warhorse goodness.
