But how often do they add titles you would pay money for? Why would I pay a subscription to get access to games I'd never even consider buying? At this point not even years is enough for me to finish some games, I just don't play games 6-8 hours / day anymore, unless it's something I really...

I'm OK with buying AAA games that are good, at 60 70 even 80 if it's something outstanding. If a game is worth playing I'd rather own it and play it with no pressure than rent it, I know technically steam is renting too, but you know what i mean. At $20 you'd need a good AAA game every 3 months...

I'm not saying it was a bad game or that I disliked it. A 6/10 is a solid score, I enjoyed even some 4/10 games.

Well of course it is, anything over 0$ is too expensive. As far as I'm concerned game subs are a plague and shouldn't be a thing. In fact I hated it even when I had it for free as it was constantly on the back of my mind to not let it go to waste. It incentivized me to try games I'd never have...

I have not played any of the previous Metro games or any Stalker. I rely on my spidey senses to decide which games are for me and which aren't, and those were telling me to avoid them until Exodus. The exact reason I was interested in Exodus was because it promised not to be underground. And it...

I wasn't particularly impressed with Exodus overall. It was a 6/10 for me.

I was in the same boat, but I didn't convert because of DRM, but because I could afford it later. If DRM was 100% bullet proof I might not even have got into games, ever so the industry would've lost all cumulative revenue from me. Which after 20 years (since I regularly buy games) is not an...

I remember reading somewhere that if Denuvo is cracked within a certain time period then the publisher gets their money back, or part of it, I don't remember exactly. Best case scenario it is a zero-sum investment, but I doubt even that. The cost of denuvo, and the bad pr that comes with it...

Nobody will ever convince me that egregious DRM actually results in more sales.

This isn't even AI, it is the automated content id system that has been in place for many years. It's basically a "you're above the law" tool for broadcasters and studios. Any content submitted into the system is automatically blocked, however it does not give the affected channels a copyright...

I expect them to directly lift the upscaling from their TVs and as such look awful with game content. Why pay +50% for the same panel?

That's literally ME1 even the enemies shown are 1:1 with husks. Not saying that's a bad thing necessarily but it makes me doubt the creativity of the designers. As if I didn't already have doubts about this game.

FYI: Last I heard, this mod was DMCA-ed by CDPR because it is against their terms to put mods behind a paywall. Luke Ross has been crashing out ever since trying to paint CDPR as evil and greedy when it is in fact him who was greedy. All he had to do was not put the mod behind a paywall and...

I used to have mismatched RAM all the time up to DDR3. Just manually set the timings of the slower RAM don't rely on automagical solutions. Still there are no guarantees that it will work.

If the sameness would be genuine photorealistic look, that would be fine. But what we are getting is that uncanny AI slop look. Only as much as any previous iteration of DLSS is. What boggles the mind is that it can even run real time on any hardware let alone on a consumer GPU. I'm used to...

This is what console gaming is coming to. It will be all PC.. You can have a general purpose PC, or a PC built to run games and little else like this or the steam machine. Or you can have a PS5 that only runs sony games, doesn't seem that appealing when put that way.

I don't mean anti-fascist. Antifa is not equal to anti fascist. Antifa is a loosely organized global movement, that claims to be anti-fascist but really is just a bunch of thugs and bullies who like to hurt people who have different views than them. Which ironically makes them more fascistic...

I've heard that the cinematics were outsourced to a completely different VFX company. But no, I have no interest in online shooters, especially ones catering to antifa aesthetics.

I don't mind paying full price for brand new games that seem great. But not for sloppy seconds of Sony. I'm not comfortable paying more than $20-25 for a port of a 2-3 year old game. Had they brought them to PC day and date, I'd have no problem paying $70 or even $80. The only thing that...

This might exactly be a panic reaction to slowing HW sales.
