Icon Of Sin posted:Got back into HBS Battletech. Kamea Arano is a vengeful god that will find those who wronged her, SLDF mechs are absolute monsters, quoting Vasudus that the intro is now my gold standard for game intros. Continues to be my favorite Battletech based game thusfar. MW5 just didn't compare. Kamea take no poo poo, team her up with Glitch and let the world burn.

Icon Of Sin posted:Just did the mission where she trades in her Kintaro for an Atlas II, and even the in-game enemies were screaming “here they com-OH poo poo THEY HAVE STAR LEAGUE MECHS, WE NEED REINFORCEMENTS YESTERDAY!! ” That mission was fun, and yeah not only to Kamea gut a couple mechs, I had her punch the lights out a couple of them as well. Watching light mechs take a single punch and die in one round is satisfying.

Diarrhea Elemental posted:It's microtransactions purely for cosmetic bullshit, chill. Microtx poo poo is natural for live service games nowadays, and after putting almost 24h in over the last 2 days I haven't run into a single "insert CC# here to make game easier" mechanic. Blizzard burned the bridge long ago for me.

Comrade Blyatlov posted:Anyone have anything to say about Starfield? Its a fun enough game, its a little bland, but overall the gameplay is nice and it hasn't been as buggy as I thought a Bethesda game should be. And yeah, its basically Fallout 4 in Space without the Apocalypse.

CP2077 is still one of my faves. Keanu Reeves helped a lot in making that game good

Tiny Timbs posted:The Cyberpunk 2.0 update is pretty incredible. They added in so many of the open world details and mechanics that people were expecting. Imagine if they'd been able to pull this off at release. I still enjoyed CP2077 both at release and now. It was a good game, with a good story, and an interesting world.

Hyrax Attack! posted:Glad Cyberpunk turned it around, still odd they allowed a PS4 release when it obviously couldn’t handle it, wonder if a bean counter saw the PS4 install base & forced them to do that. Kinda like how with the Switch they keep putting out Hitman 3 or Mortal Kombat 1. Yeah that was a major bungle and they should've done more testing before promising any system compatibility other than PC and modern consoles generations.

A.o.D. posted:The general collapse of crypto (rust in piss) has normalized GPU prices. For now. The rise of AI/LLM is starting to do the same that Crypto was doing. Not to the same degree but Nvidia is dedicating a lot of its chip manufacturing slots to workstation and server GPUs because of it. Finished Starfield - overall the gameplay is great, the main story is....meh. But the universe, ship building, and fighting was fun. Exploring was tons of fun. If you were the sort that got Skyrim and just wandered the world doing sidequests, its up your alley.

Oxygenpoisoning posted:I doubt AI/LLMs will affect it. Most high end poo poo is done on TPUs not GPUs. You can rent TPUs for model training for pennies on the dollar from AWS/Azure/GCP. Much more efficient and cost effective. Yeah, but not the entire story. What do you think is powering those TPUs. Nvidia silicon. There's a reason a large amount of servers come with Nvidia GPUs/TPUs as an option now, but GPUs are still more available and cheaper, companies are buying them up like hotcakes. Trust me dude. Nvidia GPUs are hot in servers right now. https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/nvidia-ai-gpus-shortage-price-hikes/ quote:You might be wondering how that will be a problem for consumers. After all, Nvidia’s AI graphics cards are very different from its gaming GPUs, and it’s not like AI companies are going to be snapping up shedloads of the RTX 4090. Surely that means ChatGPT won’t cause another shortage, right? CommieGIR fucked around with this message at 03:51 on Oct 1, 2023 |

Nuclear Tourist posted:Starfield review: this game is a mile wide but an inch deep Yeah, Bethesda just needs to take the L and learn from this - I did enjoy the game, but the story was shallow as gently caress and NG+ just sucks what life is left out of it.

CainFortea posted:They should have held off release for a while to give people time to forget bg3 and also polish it up I don't think it needed polish - it needed a re-write. The story wasn't very convincing, the enemies not very threatening or their cause very swaying. Of all the Bethesda stories, this one had the weakest plot and weakest motivations.

Eason the Fifth posted:Kings Quest II and III were my first real PC games and I'll always have a soft spot in my heart for Sierra. I probably mentioned it before, but Roberta Williams deserves being up there with Kojima or Carmack as a major name and influence on the entire goddamn medium. Same. Have good memories of Kings Quest.
