⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Your CV is not fit for the 21st century⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Thank you for the information! Yeah, I don’t really trust them. They feel flimsy and unreliable for most things. Sometimes, they have their moments where they seem actually helpful.

I hate their usage overall, I just figure if I need it to help me land a job at some point, I should probably just have some extra options ready.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Your CV is not fit for the 21st century⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is there a good place to figure out how to run LLM’s locally? Seems safer than entering personal data onto a server somewhere
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would you rather stop playing a game than lower the difficulty? The First Berserker: Khazan devs reckon you would | Eurogamer⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:
Depends on when I hit that difficulty spike and how changing the difficulty works.

I was playing the evil within 1. I was at the end of the game right before the final boss. The game up to that point was balanced on hard. It gave a good survival horror experience. Every boss fight or mini boss felt reasonable.

At the end of the game, they suddenly throw you into an arena with a ton of enemy waves that wouldn’t drop enough ammo to deal with them all. Suddenly, the game went from being fun to frustrating. I didn’t wana have to replay the level so at that point I hung up the towel and moved on.

Great game otherwise! Might replay it on normal one day lol

Remember when it was announced for the switch 1? Lol

The Patriot Act wasn’t enough already?

Good grief. It makes me sad that the internet is becoming a major source for data harvesting. It goes against what I think it should be about. Free, open, knowledge sharing.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Collective Shout Purge Sees Horror Games In Crosshairs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
So, while this is going on, does anyone know of must-have games that could get targeted soon? My wishlist is pretty big, and I usually sit on stuff until I feel the need to play it, but if an indie dev is going to be unfairly targeted, I might as well grab stuff now.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Collective Shout Purge Sees Horror Games In Crosshairs⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Unfortunately, there’s bad guys no matter where you go in the world. Fortunately, there are also good guys, too

Does anyone else find it ironic that the employees were hesitant to do this? I’m sure many of them have their reasons for working that job. But it seems funny when AI is built off of stolen data, and then the employees are like “hey wait a minute, though. Don’t use my data.”
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Splitgate 2 is ‘unlaunching’ as developer 1047 Games cuts staff | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
This comes just after the whole “Make fps great again” issue happened. Not a good time to be on that team
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨FromSoftware reportedly has another unannounced game that ‘could release next year’ | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
From needs to slow their roll a bit. People might get tired. That’s a crazy release schedule. That being said I am curious as to what it’ll be
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨'Friendslop' Isn't Real, But People Love Posting About It Anyway | Aftermath⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I’m digging indie titles taking some risks and trying new stuff. They’re usually decently cheap and fun with some friends. As AAA titles begin to adopt the new $80-85 price tags, indies have a time to shine.

Live action seems like such a weird choice for this
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Donkey Kong Bananza Review Thread⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I kinda wish it was more Mario, but I’m excited that they’re trying something new. I’ll definitely try it eventually. Not now, but one day lol
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨You’ve got less than a week to buy this John Wick game before it’s delisted | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Got a 76% critc score and a 60% user score on metacritic for those who are interested
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube Forces Dubs Now⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
That sounds frustrating! I’ve been seeing similar messages on various comment sections now. You would think there would be some kind of QA testing prior to launching this lol.

Kinda not surprising though, because youtube seems to launch experiments very haphazardly.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA-backed car culture site winds down, as Need for Speed series is ‘shelved’ | VGC⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I’ve been looking for a copy locally for years. I feel like I gotta just grab a copy off ebay at this point
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YouTube Forces Dubs Now⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I’m not sure why but I’m able to disable them on mobile. The tricky part is guessing what the original track is. I’m on YT premium which might be why?

I think the ideal functionality would be having (ORIGINAL) next to the audio track that isn’t dubbed and have that set to the default setting.

I think if they can get the dubbing correct and actually working as intended, that would be incredible for opening up cultures for everyone. I think crossing language barriers is really cool.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Nintendo is ending the Nintendo Switch Game Voucher service [VGC]⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
It really feels like the tone has drastically shifted with how they operate. I miss Reggie and Iwata
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨EA Connect. How do I get in contact with a real Human?? Need Support.⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Sorry I don’t have a way to help. I noticed this changed recently as well and was really frustrated by it.

Believe it or not, a decade ago, EA support was actually good. I know it sounds insane but I had the BEST customer service call with someone from the Midwest US. I was trying to get into the time trials in the game Mirrors Edge. For some reason, I was getting a weird connection error.

I spoke to this customer service rep who walked me through some bizarre steps, which seemed effectively like clearing the cache of my xbox. All the while, we just shot the shit and discussed games. It was just a casual call, she was genuinely helpful and SO efficient.

At the end of it I didn’t wana hang up the phone LOL. It was the best customer service call I’ve ever had and it kills me knowing that they axed these people at some point. It was a call that I think is rare to experience nowadays with service reps being overworked and monitored to hell and back.

⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Future of Forums is Lies, I Guess⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I was going to say “but someone could post a picture with the date and their username” and then realized that can be spoofed. And then I thought what about some kind of video? Wait that could probably be spoofed too.

Maybe you could have it so only real people could get in via word of mouth? But eventually I’m sure someone with bad intentions could enter
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are signs that the game devs aren't gamers themselves?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I’ve been streaming recently, and one thing that stands out to me is when you first boot up a game and it doesn’t have a start menu with settings.

I noticed it before, but now I really notice it. If something is wrong with the settings, sometimes that intro is unplayable or a less than optimal experience. So you have to try and skip, fix the issue, and then restart the game and try again.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are signs that the game devs aren't gamers themselves?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Oooh, grounded felt like they didn’t play test for solo players. The end game suddenly got very grindy, and I decided not to finish because of it.
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are signs that the game devs aren't gamers themselves?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
Playing the metal gear collection and this immediately stood out. The cutscenes are long

So I had never tried duckduckgo until just now and it seems they recently added ai summaries, too, lol. Dang it. I’ll try start page in a sec
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Windows 11 has finally overtaken Windows 10 as the most used desktop OS⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I needed to upgrade my pc. If I knew i had reliable security updates going forward, I would keep using Windows 10. Remember when Windows 10 was supposed to be the last windows? Hah
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does anyone play Final Fantasy XIV?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
This was also my complaint. I felt like it was missing the cooperative aspect of an MMO that I wanted. I think FFXI is closer to what I want, but it’s understandably older and less accessible for a lot of people. I’m still debating when/if i wana take the plunge and just play that for a while
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google’s electricity demand is skyrocketing⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:
I was wondering about this. AI info on every search seems ridiculous
⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft is closing down Xbox studio The Initiative, with Perfect Dark killed as well⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:
That was the ONE trailer from this Xbox announcement that I was actually looking forward to. It looked in a fairly playable state, too. I feel like a very broken record, but this is yet another reason why it feels like Microsoft is pulling out of gaming.
