I smoked a joint and listened to the whole thing. I can't say I wasn't entertained. 😅

Have you watched the full movie in the unlockable cinema? I really listened to the full commentary because I expected an achievement.

😉😅

Either the city manages to clear the roads or we don't drive. Luckily most employers understand as those cases are extremely rare.

Luckily this is a thing of the past in gaming. Having to import a whole console just to play some games early was something. 😅

I can imagine and I would hate the snow too if I had to do this over and over again. A Sisyphus situation. 😆

Luckily this isn't my business. 😅 We (the apartment community) pay someone to clear the sidewalks.

You can send some snow to me. I'm not satisfied with the amount we got.

AFAIK there are only a few movies that are region locked nowadays. The problem is that I want the German dub but the industry is mostly dead here. UK imports are often even more expensive.

I hate the physical movie situation in Germany. Donnie Darko 4K isn't available anywhere. The only option was one remaining copy on Amazon for 50€. At least it's the limited steelbook edition which includes the original and director's cut.

I see... That's how you've spent 1000h in that game. 😜

Oh wow, I wasn't aware of that. Ok fuck them. Generating AI slop seems to be more important to them and they piss on the community that made them big.

GeForce Now might also be an option to bridge the time. I mean at least you don't have to rebuy games.

Most chill part on the second and third playthrough though.

For all my non PC friends I really hope that the Steam Machine can deliver and won't be that expensive. In their latest update they said that most current games will run in 4K but some might need internal rendering of 1080p and upscaling. Only time will tell if this is true.

Yeah same. What releases on Steam will be bought on Steam.

I'm currently taking a break and my drive to have longer gaming sessions is definitely gone. I might have to take a break from taking a break for RE9. 😅

I mean back on GBA, DS, 3DS and Wii they had no other option to redo the whole game and that saved us from slop. Look at the GBA port of THPS2 on the GBA for example. This game blew my mind back then. The Wii had nearly none ports except Fifa and other yearly sports games.

Games like MK:W or BOTW look like miracles compared to those ports.

It's sad that we probably won't get many exclusive titles that were tailored for the hardware. I'm not saying that it's impossible to do good ports but they just reduce the resolution and texture size and slap DLSS on top. Especially in Pragmata the heavy usage of DLSS shows.

A great engine but not for open world games. Asset streaming seems to be the weakness of this engine.

I tried a few demos on the Switch 2 the other day (MHS3, Reanimal, Pragmata) and all ran horribly. I expect RE9 to be a disappointment too. I saw a TV spot of the Switch 2 version yesterday and yeah it looks bad. I don't think it's a good idea to port those games to such a weak system.

"Animated Bokeh" has been on my whiteboard for a long time, and this is the result.

I thought it would just be for cheesy novelty effects, but it also does lightfield manipulation that was cooler than I expected.

That's a nice amount of root growth for three weeks.

Stay away from microwave ovens then, you might spontaneously pop. 😆

I guess there was no one there. 😆 I also had such experiences in my life but it was explainable with sleep depravity. Your mind can really play tricks on you if you get too little sleep. Especially in darkness. I'm a bit disappointed that no flighing saucers were involved though. 😅
