  I basically never boot into windows except to play these anti cheat games with friends anyway, so I’ll just bite the bullet and deal with rebooting twice just to change OS to play the beta, but yeah it’s a weird ass requirement especially since it is apparently quite easy to exploit some vulnerable signed drivers to inject shit into memory anyway.

  It’s not a windows issue, BF6 has a some requirements for their anti cheat including secure boot and TPM

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon tries running live USB Linux on his dad's computer⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Fuck, I’m gonna have to enable secure boot (and use windows) to play the BF6 open beta, am I gonna get the same buillshit ?

  If it doesn’t affect my Linux drives I don’t care much tbh, I’ll probably just nuke windows and reinstall it

  Eh, there are plenty of FOSS software that implement it just fine, but I know for a fact that the default image viewers of some major distros don’t

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Look Mum No Computer is a musical twin-stick shooter action-RPG that looks wild⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Looks really similar to an old-ass flash game I used to play that was based on the same premise (sans the musical part)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For sure, it’s nice with big monitors. But it’s not that important for smaller ones imo, like the 27" one I’ve been using for years. I’d say 30" and over it starts to really matter. I stand pretty close to mine so I don’t really feel the need for a huge monitor

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Having tried it, I do think 120 fps feels a little smoother but I don’t think it’s worth the investment. 75 is already fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon witnesses excellent security⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There is an entire sub-industry and probably thousands of jobs being propped up by this stupid way of thinking about software. I can’t be mad at it because it pays the bills for a few of my friends…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Imo 4k is overkill anyway, and chasing even 60 fps (not to mention 120 which seems to be the norm these days) at this resolution for current/“next” gen games is basically a scam from hardware manufacturers to get us to buy their overly expensive “gamer” grade shit.

  Now I know it’s a bit of an extreme view in the gaming space, but imo this shit is not sustainable and doesn’t even bring that much to the table in terms of fidelity/enjoyment. 1440p works just fine and is much easier to work with, especially as your hardware gets older because fill rate really is a bitch with modern photorealistic games.

  Might be one of these mattresses with a “break” in the middle so you they fold better.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨HAAAAAAAANNNNKKKK⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes there was drama, but I feel like you’re downplaying just how bad they overpromised and underdelivered. As a huge CDPR fan since The Witcher 2, (I even preordered TW3 collectors edition the first day it was available for preorder, even though I usually don’t preorder). That release eroded a lot of the trust I had in them, even though I didn’t preorder this one since I could smell the bs from miles away.

  I actually got the game for like 6 bucks on Steam during the last sale and I’m now having a blast playing through the actually stable and release-ready version. But I feel like I can still see the scars of the rushed development on the game’s main story progression. Like, I’m convinced that act 1 was supposed to be much longer and more fleshed out. Because I can’t explain why a game that has quite literally the most immersive dialogue sequences in the entire industry (in a gigantic open world FPS, of all things) would have you watch a montage of you doing a bunch of cool things with a very cool character instead of actually having you playing through them. Also you can’t convince me that montage was literally supposed to be a vertical slice of act 1 but they had to “salvage” it and actually put it 1:1 in the game because they were legally on the hook for releasing it as an early story trailer with a giant “scenes captured in engine” text.

  They might go back on the “preorder worthy” list if they can abstain from blowing up the game’s hype to the moon and ride it regardless of the actual state of development. And burning out all their best talent on crunch death marches.

  Pretty sure Big Picture uses the exact same interface as the steam deck nowadays, which is a much better experience than the old thing. At least when I stream through Moonlight, I haven’t manually launched big picture in years.

  It’s usually a constant (or several ones with varying degrees of accuracy and size)

  As far as I know they can all act as a bootleg external wifi adapter though (via USB sharing)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Take the 9950X3D, your kid should thank you. It fares much better in games that are poorly optimized and should otherwise be just as good if not better than the Intel one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon is looking for a new video game⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  They make the biggest difference for each individual player. But an experienced player will take a CDDA character (scenario where you start with a bad character, naked, sick and with bad wounds all over in a flaming building in the middle of winter) and somewhat easily make them into the ultimate survivor, whereas you can give a seriously op character to a newbie with all the skill already maxed out and no negative traits and they’ll probably die to the first zombie encounter.

  A lot of words to say that PZ is neither a numbers game nor really a mechanics game. Ultimately it’s more of a knowledge game

  I’m having a lot of fun playing mount and blade : bannerlord. The combat is satisfying and the game has quite a lot of depth. It can be a bit overwhelming but I think it’s worth the 2h attempt.
