Steve Yun posted:When I first played… I think it was the first expansion for Half Life? They had much larger rooms and brought my fps down to 5 in the sewers Doom 2 with 4 megabytes of RAM would go down to less than 1 fps (a frame every couple of seconds really) in the last map after it had spawned a bunch of monsters in the big open area. That's why I never finished the game (without using the no-clipping cheat) until visiting an uncle who happened to have the game and a better PC. Eventually upgrading to 8 MB of RAM fixed it. (Doom 1 was fine with 4 MB, and Doom 2 was entirely playable except for that last map) Zat fucked around with this message at 11:00 on Feb 27, 2024 |

While they’re patching Pentiment to address that 120fps thing, could they also patch in voice acting for all 100+ npcs in the game, please and thank you. e: Hmm that’s a big ask, maybe just make everyone do (15th century) Banjo-Kazooie noises Lube Enthusiast fucked around with this message at 10:11 on Feb 27, 2024 |

I only hear half of all voice acting because I skip to the next sentence when I'm done reading the current one. At least voice acting is better than that dreadful typewriter dialogue style.

webmeister posted:My favourite move in Counter-Strike circa 2001 was to lob a smoke grenade into a room and start blasting while everyone else’s computer was stuck on 5fps trying to render the smoke These days I used the low poly player models and my game looked almost like a Q3 tournament because I was rocking a GeForce 2 MX 32mb in early 2001 until I got a Geforce 3 Ti 200 later that year.

ColdPie posted:Final Fantasy 14 hit Xbox last week, though only for newly registered players until the full release in a month or two. There's a free trial that lets you go through all the content except the last couple expansions, I think. I've been playing it, plays great.

Quite interested in the takes on this from XBox gamers who haven't played it before (I'm a keen fan of it on the PC and the PS5). Looking forward to many new people joining Eorzea.

Ereban: Shadow Legacy, the 3D stealth-puzzle platformer first announced as a day 1 Game Pass title at the 2022 Xbox summer showcase, is apparently no longer coming to Game Pass at launch. Too bad, since the recent Steam demo was fairly promising. https://twitter.com/BabyRobotGames/status/1761142368340770992 Going by their Twitter timeline, it seems like this might be a result of Raw Fury dropping the game as a publisher and not something on Microsoft's end, but we'll see if this becomes a pattern; so far, the only other case I recall of a game being officially announced, and then un-announced, as a day 1 Game Pass title is Victoria 3.

When Sea of Thieves added the Monkey Island dlc, every dialogue line was also voiced by great voice actors. But it took so long for them to finish every sentence that I mostly skipped half of every line.

My favourite voice acting is all the dwarves in Deep Rock Galactic. I’ve heard every line a thousand times and I still enjoy them. Just the disdain for the job and management, the love for Karl, etc.

You can filter in the app, "Optimized for Touch". Fewer games seem to offer it lately. They finally added touch controls to the Xbox app, but 1) it needs to be installed on your console obviously, and 2) no 360/OG support.

I've figured they're just referring to bug queens or somesuch. Never found it being out of place. DRG Survivors is a passable VS clone, if a little too by the numbers at this stage.
