I don’t know about mastering both, but Project Zomboid maybe?
It can be somewhat chill and even relaxing occasionally, but when it makes you anxious it makes you ANXIOUS (and queasy, eventually).

I haven’t played Starfield so I can’t say for sure, but I think people hate that the world is divided into instances rather than being seamless and associate loading screens with that critique… probably.
Nice to see that they’re efficient loading screens, though!

I know the drawbacks, if I lose anything that I put on RAID0 it’s a minor inconvenience at best - in fact, the two hard drives on RAID0 I mentioned are quite old and I’m not sure how long I can expect them to last (not that I use them often).

“Sea lioning” is a way of arguing in bad faith; specifically, asking for evidence or feigning ignorance every time the opposing party makes a claim, regardless of how trivial said claim is.
Nobody knows what BonkTheBonkTheAnnoyed thinks it has to do with anything though.

I’d rather take two SATAs, I have a cheap docking station with two SATA slots (currently housing hard disks) and putting them together on a RAID0 almost doubles a single one’s performance.
I could buy a docking station with two NVMe slots, it would be wise too, but then again, two NVMe SSDs would be faster than one, and again, it may or may not be worth the slight (potential) increase in price and decrease in reliability - especially considering the diminishing returns.

I can confirm that fully moving Windows from a HDD to an SSD makes all the difference in the world; for some reason, W10 and especially W11 are astoundingly slow on hard disks.
I have a W11 VM, and if I run it on a SATA SSD it boots up in ~30s; HDD, the same image on a HDD takes approximately 5 minutes to get to the login screen, then no less than 2 minutes to run applications.
Even considering that I disabled paging files. - Comment on How much does storage speed affect your games? 1 week ago:
I know DirectStorage helps with read performance, I can’t use it because Linux, and I’m not intrested in running benchmarks for the heck of it - I would rather like to know how much storage speed affects loading times in your (or anyone’s) experience, in practical scenarios, with all the CPU-bound, GPU-bound, memory-bound and network-bound loads included in your (or anyone’s) average gaming session.

- Comment on what are in you're top 3 favourite games of all time? 3 weeks ago:
- Halo 2
- TLoZ:OoT
- Half Life
I can’t deny that nostalgia has to do with the first two fossils in the list, though I still maintain that I like them more than their latest counterparts in their franchises.
Not Half Life though: it was ~15 years old when I first played it, no nostalgia there.Still, between the many games I would gladly build a monument to, those are games that I can play beginning to end without getting bored, annoyed or burnt out (as long as you allow me to use the Ship Of Harkinian randomizer for Z:OoT, otherwise replace that game with Perfect Dark ig).

That’s why I recommensed Dr. K’s take and Ross’, they didn’t lean into the drama.
Though, most of the critiques against Jason I’ve heard are sound; while it’s true that dramatubers search every nook and cranny of his past for slander, they find more stuff than any reasonably sympathetic person should have. - Comment on Does anyone else find it suspicious that there wasn't any criticism on here about Stop Killing Games until after it hit 1.4M signatures? 5 weeks ago:
The (alleged) swatting didn’t happen before “The End Of SKG”.
I also don’t think he deserves cancellation, but he has lied so many times, so confidently and so unrepentantly that he deservers very little credibility.I understand that some people would feel sympathy for the somewhat excessive negative attention he got (not from me, he lost my sympathy the first time I saw him blatantly lying and lobbing insults) but with the way he ALWAYS behaved, he absolutely had some of it coming.

From the 5-10 min of his videos
There’s the problem: you won’t get evidence of a murder if you ask the murderer for it.
He streams a lot, so the things he says or does are spread out, especially if you’re only looking for noticeably damning stuff like the rim job related rant against SKG.His confidence and speechcraft makes him very good at steering conversations by lying or deflecting, as long as you trust what he says.
Good places to start looking may be his conversation with Dr. K or Ross’ “The end of Stop Killing Games” on Youtube, both are hosted by level headed people.
I can only assume you haven’t seen the latter, because at the very least it makes it very apparent why people dislike him. - Comment on CTO reveals new AI plan... 1 month ago:
