What are you playing?

[AlwaysHope]

Quick headsup for those who love FO4 & have AMD card @ 2K, ultra settings, 144hz monitor.
Be sure the HD pack is installed.
Plenty of online guides to help with removing FPS cap beyond 60hz & but they all ask to install additional mods & plugins to calm the physics.

A total of 3 .ini files need to be checked & that includes the one deep in the FO4 directory itself apart from the ones in the my games folder.
The "IpresentInterval" value needs to be 0 instead of 1, save, then done.
Enable enhanced Vsync in radeon app under advanced settings for the game & done!
This was done with 21.6.1 WHQL package in win 10

( I also have anti lag feature enabled but that's my thing, up to you if you want it)

Result = super smooth locked 72fps everywhere & anywhere throughout the game. no physics problems anywhere including lockpicking etc..
Before was locked at 48fps no matter where in the game....

Mofo... I had so many DLCs NOT installed when I played last year. What the fuck is wrong with Steam? Or are these only *free* after I bought the expansion pass?

[Re]playing Berseria here. Trying to go for perfect achievement record, but damn that bloody waitressing minigame!
Probably going to try and clear end-game achievments, then put it on hold till I get back in the mood and go for an NG+ with grade store buffs.

Is Arise any similar, combat-wise?



If you're going to start up ep2 next, I hope you like garden gnomes...

And I just realized Valve added an extra achievement to it. Ruined my record. -_-

I don't remember berseria too much but they did change things a bit this time. (for the better)

Well on GOG at least, unless you had the goty edition, you had to manually add the free DLC's. I guess they might have recently changed it so that the DLC are always there now since some people clearly didn't know you had to add them your self.

I guess you can add me to that list of ppl, finished the GOTY edition about 1 year ago on GoG and I don't recall ever adding anything manually. 'other than the fan made HD texture mod I used'

Why did you say that in 'italic'? Did you mean you used a nude mod to see Triss, Ciri, Yennefer and most importantly that Read Baron dude naked? You pervert!

If you had bought the game on GOG they would have been included in the installer.

Plus you get all the extra goodies!

Nah, not this time and game.
It was just the HD reworked project from Nexus.

Italic is more like how I add/write my extra thoughts.

Thats good to know, I have the box copy of the game and its the GoG version but I never paid attention to all that and simply installed the game.

Let me rephrase that. It's not that the DLCs didn't get downloaded and installed. But rather they were not even claimed (Shown as In Library). Was the DLCs only free after buying expansion pass or also free with base game? I bought the expansion pass years after I bought the base game.

LUCKY!! We don't have physical PC games over here anymore. Really sucks..

well i also have TW3 in physical ... alongside CP2077 D&D: DA MH:W Ion Fury BF Battlefront II Jedi Fallen Order Titanfall 2 FO76 Doom Eternal Borderland3 (does not count ... code on a flex card ) Werewolf Apocalypse EarthBlood and a lot of recent one (oldies are more ... numerous nonetheless)... like a cat "if i fit, i sit!", "if i can find a physical box I GET IT!"

back in Skyrim SE ... playing the quest for "M'Rissi's tails of trouble" .... now i remember why i am also as much fond of M'Rissi than i am for Inigo ...

some modders are genius ... i need to add Falskar, Bruma, The Forgotten City ... indeed Skyrim is Eternal, oh and FO4 South of the sea, fusion City and ...

Decided to give Forza Horizon 4 a try under Linux. An Xbox Game Studios title. Smoooth.

*edit* Ok, A couple more.

I gotta tell ya....when I pulled up the thread it went immediately to your post and since I'm on my tablet I could only see the first picture. For a second there, I thought it looked like a real photo, not a video game. The graphics in that game must be surreal.

Glad to see you got it up and running. I'm working on doing the same(with a few different titles) this weekend.

Linux 5...,

Driving games are one of my favorite genres, and they did an incredible job with this graphically. The different seasons, lighting, and car details were spared no expense. I've owned a couple of the cars available in game and they're spot-on.

It amazes me how far gaming on Linux has progressed. I'd have to give 99% of the credit to Steam for being able to do this. It only took a small amount of tinkering with in-game settings to play without being able to tell what platform it's running under.

The Forza series is one that I thought I'd need to keep a dedicated Windows install to be able to play. Based on today's results I'm pretty optimistic that it won't take long for the upcoming release of Forza Horizon 5 to run seamlessly under Linux.

Enjoy,

@Calmmo if you need more reasons to go for it, here is my review
The game was much more harder than I first imagined it cuz there are many times when you don't know what to do. The game does not hold your hand. I finished it. What an amazing game, of the best this year

I keep hearing goty from everyone and every site on this game!!!! Only PCGamer website gave it a bad score... weird... usually they are pretty easy going on scoring, I guess it was just the wrong person playing the game. Looks great to me. People need to have more of an open mind.

 

[Splinterdog]

I know, it's bloody rubbish.

 

[ne6togadno]

hammering things in hammerting
steam ea city/crafting/trade management game with underground map split in terraria style biomes.
main goal as you'd expect from dwarf colony manger is to fill up large vault with gold. so far "random map" mod is available. not sure if there will be some sort of campaign after release.

 

[rtwjunkie]

I am loving Gamedec! It is a Cyberpunkish Detective isometric CRPG. There are a great deal of dialogue choices and questioning that change the direction of your investigation into crimes in the gameworlds of the future. What you say, ask or answer greatly affects future game trajectory and dialogues as well as affecting your investigation chart and deductions you must make.

Lost three damned perfect pelts in RDR2 today. Fucked up a duel and got the town on me. Ran off and found the guys defending the house from extortionists. Accidentally got the family on me. Died in the chaos. Everybody there wanted me dead.

And that's when I realized I hadn't manual saved in 2 hours. Bye bye pelts!

I gotta say, that's annoying. I'm all for realism and consequences but that's a lot to lose for someone who works for a living. I really do find that pretty lame. Not that if I went and hunted I could just replenish those. I fucking shot a hog running in the same direction as me while on horseback with a regular bow and pulled the perfect pelt. Then a deer. Then a second one that barely didn't make it out. To lose the fruits of that to the dumbest crap... ugh man. And it's not like the punishment teaches me to play differently. I'm not gonna spend more time going out of my way to ditch the pelts as quickly as possible. I'm just going to save more often so that I can load back. If the solution to a mechanic is "save more" maybe the mechanic isn't so hot

That's maybe my one biggest gripe with this game overall. Some of these punishments assume you have no life keeping you from making up the time you lose to them. It piles up and then before you know it a month goes by and I don't play. Like man... the amount of progress I have lost because I loosened my grip on the controller during dialog and accidentally drew my weapon. It goes back to the control schemes I guess. I need to see if there's a mod that lets me change them. Every time I play a R* game I feel like I need a cheat sheet.

I have never played that game, but I agree, in modern society all games should have auto saves frequently, there is literally no reason not to, unless you specifically select it in options to not do so for those that don't want it. I work two jobs now, about 52-55 hours per week, heh. Got to adult at some point.

Man, I hear ya. I may just have the normal hours but because every day is consistent I fill it out with other responsibilities and things on the side to make money, when there are good opportunities. I do have a decent chunk of free time in each month's span but I'm also kind of a 'project' type of guy, so when I lose time like that to a game, I think of the tangible, 'un-loseable' things I could've had for that time. Eee... it stings a little.

But you raise an interesting point. If I fault RDR2 for that, I have to fault the practice of it in general. It's far from the only game with those kinds of annoyances. It just sticks out more with that game because many things in it are already immensely time-consuming. You accept that going in and it is a nice experience. You get into it. Losing that time after the fact is a harder concession to take. It's an awesome game but R* really does have it out for you with the saves. For instance, it overwrites your autosave when you die, so if it had autosaved before, you lost that. Autosaves happen enough that they generally work okay... until they go the other way on ya. Add in mishaps due to their odd control scheming. The game is full of I guess you could call "situations" with different control schemes. Several of them. A lot of simple things are muddled by clunky menu and button options. I've died futzing with it more times than I can count. It was only when I sat down and took the time to memorize them that it worked out. It's just super easy to finger-flub and then get locked out of the point before that by the autosave. It creates a sense of permanence and consequence, but an unwelcome one for my tastes.

Like, it's never something normal. Take this one time, for instance. I was between a few routine things, just on horseback down a road going full sprint. Of course a wagon rolls out of the woods for an ambush and I barely stop at the wagon. Didn't have the right weapon ready for that but it didn't matter. A second later I'm dead from probably 5 or 6 close range shots from every direction. It autosaves, I lose money, and all of my pelts. Why did this need to happen? What did that add? As far as I can tell it just took things out of time already spent.

It has this sort of vortex in the gameplay loop because of it. It's this rut you can fall in of just trying to get one simple thing done, getting caught up and sliding back, trying another, and again...

I dunno, I came back to a save 20% in that I started a little bit back. But it's been cursed the whole time I picked it back up. Easier to swing back to the main starting point of the game and take more time doing stuff. New run, takin it slower and focusing on getting set up for every kind of encounter first. Get kitted. At least now after stumbling through all of the early game missions I know the best order to hurry that along from. Try to just come from the strongest starting point so the game can't jump me with dumb crap

People are starving at the camp and you're effing around dueling some lowlifes in the city?!

@lynx29 autosaves are built in, it's just that they are timed with story progress. You can save manually so if you end up like RZ it's your own fault.

Destiny 2, 179 hours in just over 3 weeks. I'm also playing a bit of Day's Gone.

 

[Vayra86]

I fired up Medieval Dynasty for the 1st time, so far it feels a lot like KCD..except with more building stuff

And I tried Valheim's newest update. But I was more happy that it didn't effed up my save game that I completely forgot what the update supposed to do..

Oh yeah... Valheim! That game I now tried the second time only to get my fulled equipped dude dead on some foreign beach with no way to get back to him. Another 20 odd hours down the shitter And again, all it took was a snippet of Plains biome and a wasp...

Meanwhile... I have no other options right now. Started off with a very laid back build, I mean what better way to fill up the shared stash than MFmancer...
