This is the core issue of console gaming tho. You can’t actually upgrade. You just straight up buy a new console. This wasn’t that big of a deal during the PS4 gen because the PS4 pro wasn’t that expensive. But at the current price points a different strategy is needed.

Honestly I think if Sony made a program like “mail us your old PS5 and like $200 to get a PS5 Pro” the console would’ve done better. It wouldn’t address the “why do we need this?” part (especially considering we’re hearing reports of GTA6 running at 30 FPS on the Pro) but it would’ve done some good for customer goodwill.

“He’s gonna here me” omg not even time for basic grammar anymore? -s

I own all of these games already so I can tell you this is a good bundle. Any single one of these games is worth the full price of the bundle alone.

The 3 Zachtronics games included are a great sampler of of the studio and I like that this isn’t just a “All Zachtronics games bundle”.

There are better programming games out there but I think this bundle strikes a good balance between fun games that require light programming knowledge and wow this is just programming lightly disguised as a game.

It can definitely work. Some of my fondest memories in multiplayer are me playing Arma 3 on a hardcore milsim server. The immersion was unmatched for me but it’s hard to replicate. It requires everyone to play along and that just doesn’t always happen.

So I’m not inherently super skeptical about the multiplayer aspect.

You can do anything if you complain loud and long enough

Kinda sad tbh. I only played it at release for a few matches but honestly it was fine. A f2p shooter similar to Call of Duty but without the 80€ price tag should’ve kept a bit of an audience. And I wonder how much of this is Ubisoft thinking „welp, we don’t have as many or more players than CoD, shut it down!”.

The game itself was fine which, considering this is Ubisoft, is high praise. But I wonder how many people they lost with the initial reveal trailer calling the game “Tom Clancy’s XD”

Yeah now I start to understand why people go mad over nvidias pricing I mean the 4090 costs like what 1500, 2000 bucks? Meanwhile the 6100 cheaper than the shipping cost y’all’re getting ripped off —shitpost

It’s so funny to me that you get this for a limited time only as a PS5 owner but as a Steam Deck owner I get it forever.

I think the biggest issue this engine has is just how many features there are. There are probably at least four ways to get any given job done, and sometimes there isn’t even a clear best option. I have lots of gripes with the engine but they can be summarized as “it’s just too big” No wonder games aren’t properly optimized when UE tries to replace a dozen established tools.

Ok says here MTG 28.5% but what about YuGiOh?

Yeah I’m a big fan of upscaling myself. I hear a lot of complaints on the internet that this means developers won’t optimize their games because upscaling exists, but I think it’s great because it gives older/weaker GPUs (like your 3060) some longevity.

Heck, I use DLSS on my 4080 when I don’t want a game to suck so much power.

„Aaahhh this party is ass lemme go to Mars right quick „

You know what would convince me to buy the game? NOT PRICING IT AT 80€

DF tested it and no, The PS5 Pro can’t run Elden Ring at 60 FPS. Also ye the whole 8K thing is infuriating not even the RTX 4090 can do 8K reliably

Unfortunately, casting from potato to carrot is a narrowing conversion so your new carrot will lose some properties

I have noticed this trend as well, but I think it’s actually pretty good. Your package bunch of features you have been working on under a common theme and that builds some excitement.

Consider the alternative: “Get ready for build v1053” or “Prepare yourselves for update 1.2.24” that just doesn’t sound exciting and it’s probably not gonna draw in players who haven’t played the game in a while.

And also keep the psychology in mind a little bit, It seems less impressive to release seven small updates where each update only adds one relatively minor feature rather than one big update with seven new, but still relatively minor features

Yeah and YouTube already has a “pay money but still get ads plan”. And they’ll likely continue raising prices on all plans

He actually has. During his last presidency he criticized Merkel for being too dependent on Russian oil.

Backflipping sounds so whimsical tho and I’ll be using it from now on, especially when someone backflips from a promise hard.

Nah I’d say that’s a good purchase. I just bought a new car on credit too because I’ve had pretty bad luck with buying used cars before. They always required quite a lot of work to get running and then something breaks and repairs are needed again. Case in point the current car’s AC system broke down a little while ago and after all the repairs that were done already I have a feeling that getting the AC repaired would mean I’ve paid more in repairs than to buy the car. And that’s just not worth it. So I decided to take out a little credit and just buy a new car instead.
