It’s usually a constant (or several ones with varying degrees of accuracy and size)
- Comment on A game you "didn't know it was bad 'til people told you so"? 1 day ago:
I loved enter the matrix. It was lowkey more fun with the cheats though
- Comment on I hate Samsung and their dumb software design choices, and this is one of them. Why do I need a SIM card to enable a hotspot whereas every other phone works without one? 1 week ago:
As far as I know they can all act as a bootleg external wifi adapter though (via USB sharing)

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.

a polygon (/ˈpɒlɪɡɒn/) is a plane figure made up of line segments connected to form a closed polygonal chain.
Appears so
- Comment on Anon is looking for a new video game 1 week 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
- Comment on Anon considers LASIK 1 week ago:
Same reason why squinting also kind of works iirc
- Comment on Self insert power fantasy recommendations? 1 week ago:
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.

- Comment on Nintendo warns Switch 2 GameChat users: “Your chat is recorded” 1 week ago:
Yeah I’m not sure why that’s news. At least Nintendo is being somewhat transparent about if
- Comment on Sony will be releasing "MONTY PYTHON AND THE HOLY GRAIL" on 4K Ultra HD on August 26. 1 week ago:
Iirc they were broke. So probably not using great cameras that produce great results in 4k
- Comment on Who is Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and why is she in my toothpaste? 😡🤬😡 1 week ago:
Children could also swallow the toothpaste. Not a huge deal if they do it once but iirc it can be pretty dangerous in the long run

Nah it’s too often the PSU to actually be the proper equivalent
- Comment on Zynga shuts down Torchlight 3 developer four years after its acquisition 1 week ago:
Last epoch’s campaign is so mid too. I feel like they somehow both underplayed and overplayed the time travel stuff. At least it’s pretty short
- Comment on The Witcher 4 | Gameplay Tech Demo 1 week ago:
No one has been doing that kind of claims directly since… TW3 actually ? Or maybe Watch Dogs. Epic Games and CDPR know that every content creator under the sun will run with that and make these claims for them to start the hype machine.
- Comment on The Witcher 4 | Gameplay Tech Demo 1 week ago:
That’s not unbelievable. If the trees voxelization thing is just a visualisation mode in the engine, it’s stupidly easy to “ship” it into a dev build and activate it with a shortcut. Hell the nanite visualisation thing they showed on foliage before that one is exactly that, and iirc enabled by default in dev, you just need to toggle a cvar to see it.
Source : have worked on UE5 games
- Comment on The Witcher 4 | Gameplay Tech Demo 1 week ago:
I believe it. I’ve had access to a ps5 devkit and UE5 in the past.
What I don’t believe is that they can actually run a full-fledged game on the same hardware at the same level of fidelity
- Comment on I'm sure it's just a coincidence that everything that can be wielded against them either just isn't implemented (good mod tooling) or doesn't work properly (user/instance blocking) 2 weeks ago:
I think that’s a weak attack, if only because the tankie instances heavily really on it too
- Comment on Does anyone use a phone without a protective case? 2 weeks ago:
Not using one with my fairphone, it’s bulky enough already, the entire back is replaceable for cheap and the frame looks solid. I dropped it quite a lot, including on some hard surfaces, and it’s only made a few superficial marks, like it scraped the frame’s shiny coating in that spot, but that’s about it.
- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy teo longest eunning best friends. 2 weeks ago:
Yeah I say let them cook. Their “worst” game is Pyre (iirc it really didn’t sell well) and it’s still a very good game.
- Comment on Had a take about Supergiant Games that recieved a lot of pushback fromy teo longest eunning best friends. 2 weeks ago:
IIRC they (or at least their design lead) explicitly stated that since the founders were Diablo fans, something like Hades was basically their dream.(And imo you can already see some of that in Bastion and Transistor so I don’t think it was PR talk) So it’s not surprising they’d go for a sequel given how well it was received. But I’m sure they’ll stop soon enough, they don’t seem to be the kind of studio that is in it for the money and I’m sure Hades and Hades 2 are given them more than enough money to take creative risks in the future.

GameCubes also had ATI GPUs. Never heard of any issues with these

- Comment on Tech CEOs are using AI to replace themselves / CEOs from Zoom and Klarna used AI avatars while reporting earnings 3 weeks ago:
Sounds like they could be fully replaced with AI. Not sure we’d lose much there
- Comment on Anon isn't fooled by planes 3 weeks ago:
Though given that hovering birds don’t look funny, maybe this is a silly observation…
Birds flying against the wind and staying in the same spot as a result do look kinda weird though. Especially if you are not aware/don’t notice there is mstrong winds
- Comment on As Gamers Express Concern About Borderlands 4 Potentially Costing $80, Gearbox Chief Randy Pitchford Says: ‘If You’re a Real Fan, You’ll Find a Way to Make It Happen’ 4 weeks ago:
Does Randy even realize how much the industry’s landscape has changed ?
First of all you’re in competition with your older games. BDL1 and 2 had soul and were good. BDL 3 is still ok (no idea about the pre-sequel but I heard it was the beginning of the downwards trend). Not to mention the literal hundreds (even thousands for some of us) of other good games sitting in our libraries. And the indie bangers consistently proving that we don’t need to pay 80$ and download a 200 Go day one patch to enjoy the medium in 2025. I hope this bankrupts Gearbox at this point.
- Comment on What level of interest do you have in "empire building" location based games? 4 weeks ago:
Idk about the whole corporation vibe. I’d personally go for “pure” industry.
