He is only testing AAA games at top settings. And that’s the point AMD is “making”. Most pc gamers are out there playing Esport titles at the lowest possible settings in 1080p to get the max fps possible. They’re not wrong, but you could still say that it’s ridiculous to buy a brand-new modern card only expecting to run esport titles. Most people I know that buy modern GPUs will decide to play new hot games.

And better work at that

The calculation technically only takes 12 straight days to compute, but they had many interruptions over the process, sometimes having to fully restart the whole calculation.

I was replaying Sekiro recently after not playing it since release, thought I could at least put up a fight against tutorial Genichiro. Needless to say, I got my ass handed to me in under a minute.

AND AS I BREATHE

Isn’t Steam Deck APU RDNA 2 at oeast? If so, it’s technically RT capable.

I unironically love this ai tune. This is what AI is supposed to be used for.

Thief, home of the slave.

To add to this: the origin of the name comes from Castlevania games that were made in the style of Metroid games (above definition), it later became a definition for all games with similar gameplay where your map progression is gated behind gear/skill progression. Great examples are, obviously, Metroid and Castlevania, but “recently” we got Hollow Knight, Blasphemous, Grime and some others. Objectively you could say that Hollow Knight is the primary cause of the genre’s recent popularity with indie developers, as it was a super successful indie game.

Same. I could never understand how someone can be so out of themselves to break stuff they know costs quite a bit to replace. Just bang your head in the wall if you’re that angry.

The DLC areas are all incredible and unique, plus they make the biggest soul even bigger by a factor of two. It’s insane how much they add to the game.

I feel that DS2 is the most consistent of all 3 games. The game is an average 8 all the way through. While DS1 and DS3 have areas where the game hits an amazing 10, they also have areas where the game feels unfinished and the quality noticeably drops hard (after Anor Londo, after Abyss Sentinels), where it can feel you’re playing some weird AA shovelware project. BB is similar to DS2 in this aspect, but the whole game is at least a solid 9. Sekiro is the same again, the whole game is at least a solid 9.

I’m waiting to make a pc upgrade and buy new storage, then I’m switching.

“Art is never finished only abandoned” -someone

Can’t remember who said this, but it’s absolutely the truth. There’s always something which you feel that can be improved.

You live in a bubble. As a teacher, a lot of young students have already been indoctrinated into religion by the age of 12, most of them will never escape.

Is that pixel art? It looks like early 3d graphics.

I only remember the 3090 frying itself when playing New World, but, allegedly, that was only some units with faulty soldering.

It’s crazy that “lobbying budget” and “buying lobbyists” is a thing said in the openness and not illegal. Thanks for sharing this report, it’s a great (disgusting) read.

It’s a huge part of the business model. Social Media is valuable for its data on people, and for its ability to manipulate and influence people.

Biased, but absolutely right.

Being the devil’s advocate, I can somewhat think of these potential benefits:

• More energy efficient

• Faster memory speed with soldered memory (which this one in particular doesn’t use)

• Allows for increased performance and cooling of those chips

• Better integrated graphics

And maybe… hopefully… cheaper?
