- Comment on Rockstar baulks as a Charlie Kirk assassination mission is created in GTA Online, bans it and censors his name, but there's more out there 2 weeks ago:
Well, there goes the only legitimate reason to still play GTA online.
- Comment on Digital Foundry: Nvidia G-Sync Pulsar is a Motion Clarity Revelation 2 weeks ago:
Just go back to Alex’s review of RT in Dying Light 2 where he analyses the entrance to a church/mausoleum and completely misses he’s analysing a gamma crushed render due to a bug. It’s like being a surgeon and replacing a heart with a tennis ball. More than half of their coverage is sponsored content in a classical example of the eshitification of youtube and the rest is highly dubious nowadays.

Fuck Digital Foundry, they are a marketing tool for the same companies that are destroying our hobbies.

Those that write code for 3D graphics get paid a lot. That’s why most companies nowadays use middleware like UE5…

If only there was a pervasive tool nowadays that is famously inaccurate, likes to hallucinate and frequently cites deprecated data… Something artificial that

I see different figures for the list. The one in the infographic does not exist.
- Comment on The Best-Selling Video Games Since 2020 3 weeks ago:
Funny you should say that, because I checked the source and they haven’t compiled the 2025 list. You know what would definitely halucinate one…
- Comment on The Best-Selling Video Games Since 2020 3 weeks ago:
Not just out of date, complete and utter fabrication.
TIL people eat shit from the “visual capitalist” and swallow it whole. I’d bet my right nut this image took 15min of AI “prompt engineering” and 30 of photoshop copy-paste. None of if is remotely reliable.

Tahnk you for making my point. When I make goulash, I make goulash, that’s why the word exists.
- Comment on Pizza styles 4 weeks ago:
Usanians call food pizza the same way they call social democracy comunism or thin air, weapons of mass destruction. The entire country’s culture is based on bastardising things from the civilised world to the point they lose their original meaning.
- Comment on EU lawmakers to study ban 'loot boxes' and other addictive features in video games 4 weeks ago:
Study? What more study is needed, gambling is virtual heroin for kids. Just fucking kill it. Everyone and their mother is OK with causing millions in unployment due to “AI” because it’s “progress” but to actually protect children we need to “study” even more! GTFO with that bullshit.

Fucked home, come to fuck it up here too?
- Comment on 1 month ago:
In Europe the discounted PS5 slim costs roughly the same as a Switch 2 in several territories, the whole discount thesis falls of a cliff once one realises that at the same price people still preferred the PS5. Whoever wanted a switch 2, already got it at launch, everyone else can see the cash grab.

- Comment on 'Huge respect to the folks at Obsidian': Todd Howard invited Obsidian devs onto Fallout season 2's set so they could see New Vegas in the flesh 1 month ago:
Because neither fallout 3 or 4 are RPGs. They are sandbox shooters, dumbed down games, so tide pod eaters don’t get confused while playing them.

That assumes an equal proclivity and competence for reading, which is manifestly not the case…
- Comment on 2 months ago:
In the past decade, PC hobbyists have been the victims of the latest group of regards “getting the bag”. Crypto 1.0, 2.0 and now AI. It’s the biggest fool theory doing its thing. I fucking hate tech bros and crypto bros. They are the huma race’s macro analogy for cancer cells.
- Comment on One hour into Gears 5 and I feel its a lot better than 4 2 months ago:
20 and 80 seems about the right parallel, they both vote for fascists in droves so it kinda checks out. I’d wager the level of idiocy is neck and neck.

When you’re 80, your patience isn’t what it used to be 😏

These games feel like they were made for people 30y old than I am. The writing is atrocious…

Sonkey Kong is such an outlier as GOTY. They frequently need a nintendo game there to please the basement dwellers but still, Hades, HKSs and mainly ClairObscure are so far above DK it’s almost insulting seeing them together in the same category.
