Maybe. I feel like there have been a ton of losers on here over the years that are cut from the same cloth

Ask me about my XCOM and controller collection

word.

I think it’s a more common scenario than we would all hope. Years ago my wife and I were driving home from dinner and this kid ran out into the street in front of our car wearing a towel around his neck like a cape. He was playing “super hero” while his filthy parents were inside the house neglecting him playing I think WoW. We had to wait while the police showed up and all that fun stuff.

Ugh the truth hurts. I was just thinking about this today. I'm pretty sure players have never been this spoiled for choice ever and people like to joke about backlogs but man, at some point ya, I rather, gotta stop buying poo poo lol.

I remember the big thread about it, and yeah, he started by doubling down (as is tradition) and by the end of it they were doing okay and I think he posted an update a while later going "still got our poo poo together" so sometimes, just sometimes, it goes okay.

Also, just checking, it's been ages so those big QoL and changes for Redfall and Starfield have obviously come out and fixed all the really obvious, glaring and simple to fix issues already right? Like it was six months ago haha of course they have.

Did they at least add local maps for when you’re in a city to Starfield?

Fallout 4 update just went live.

Native PS5 and Xbox Series applications. Includes performance and quality mode options.
Performance mode: 60 FPS target, 4k resolution, standard settings, relying on dynamic resolution scaling.
Quality mode: 30 FPS*, 4k resolution, ultra settings, should not require dynamic resolution scaling.


I especially like this part :

When connected to a 120Hz display, Quality mode will target 40 FPS.

Huh, is that the first Series X title with a 40fps 120hz mode? At least the first (now) first-party one right?

On Playstation it's a separate title to claim and download. How does it work on Xbox? I have the game updating on my XSX. Is that's all that's needed? I have seen some games that do let you pick between the Xbox One version and the S/X versions, but I don't see that option here so I figure I'm good to go once it finishes updating.

Yeah is just like that. On PS5 is a separate download and on Xbox Series it'll update automatically from the Xbone version due to smart delivery.

Edit: on the PS5 version you have to claim again all addons if you got the GOTY edition. They will show up as free but need to do it manually.

If you have a Series console, you get the next-gen version automatically as a normal update. If you have a XBone, you get a different update with just the bugfixes.

New Vegas has a lot of invisible walls in its map tied with some worse gunplay, irritating enemies, weapon degradation, and being saddled with Fallout 3's inferior radiation system among other mechanical issues I have.

Main Story in 4 isn't very good and NV has more interesting factions but you're talking to the person who the canceled hypothetical "leave" ending was for so I can tell you NVs main story never got a motivating hook into me so its not leagues better for me like it is for some.

Edit: Also I triggered a bug in NV where all of my save files could no longer open doors so that killed my run dead

The pirate code is really more of a guideline, than actual rules.

Just beat the story in Jusant.

Pro: it's very pretty and climbing is Hella Fun
Con: what the gently caress is going on in this game?!

Granted, I stopped reading al the notes roughly 10 minutes in because gently caress that, I wanna climb. Those probably told most of the story.

Finally someone who sees reason. FO has always been wacky and zany and so on but roman cosplaying as such a major part of the game … no, no not at all.
