What are you playing?

Back in the north with Boozer in Days Gone and now I'm completely hooked. Fabulous game and never a dull moment.
Some have accused the game of being repetitive same old, same old, but completely disagree. It's a breath of fresh air after so many Far Cry games, but can't really be compared to Dying Light. I think it's better anyway.
The bike is well buffed up now.

I genuinely tried to get into into it but just didn’t grab me I may need to get further in before I feel it

Im so tired about shooters on console,
1) mostly no crossplay
2) this insane shit Aim Assist (I never used them with Gamepads on Console)
A: i can play with a Gamepad a shooter
B: i cant play a Shooter with gamepad but not this ...... Aim Assist

I did 95% play on CoD MW 2019 against PC Players in Crossplay, mostly not Console only

There is really only one, well maybe two real console shooters.
GoldenEye and Perfect Dark.

And there are only a similar number of real PC shooters.
UT and Quake.

Everything else? Thanks for trying, but no. Oh yeah, Cod and BF, sure. But let's face it, they're all broken today. In another topic I saw UT'99 and remembered. The video alone just cements it: what the hell happened in two decades since then? We're still shooting but somehow lots of stuff doesn't work as well as it used to. I've seen my share of shooters after UT99 and 2004 but I cant say any of them stuck with me for any longer than a couple months. The first COD MW on PS was enjoyable though. But it still never even got close to the suspense or adrenaline of arena shooters.

Do you remember UT (PS2?) and UT3 on the Playstation 3? That was hilarious in all of its clunkiness. And somehow the PS2 version that was more clunky, was still better - even with a similarly insane aim assist.

Lotus Evija.
Favorite car on the planet. Probably the most real implementation of an electric engine ever made. 1 single gear. You get the full power of the battery spinning the wheels at a single press of the pedal. it takes you from 0 to infinite with no gear shift.
Internal combustion requires gear shift. Electricity is instant. All at once.

Amazing

Subnautice Below Zero was on sale, so I got it, and I have one thing to say to all game devs: Please let us choose UI/subtitle language in the game settings, or hire people to translate your game for you. Use the system language if you want, but let us choose english. I wouldn't mind if the games were actually translated by actual translators, but they aren't. It's google translate and it's NOT THE SAME THING. Language is context, culture, expressions and machine translation doesn't have those things. I mean you can understand the translations, but it's not good or even correct and at this point it is actually hurting the languages that aren't english because young people think the machine translations are good when in reality they're kinda bad. Every single language is colorful and interesting but becuase many will just see english and the english at best being shittily translated by software people think english is The Superior Language. It's not progress, it's cultural warfare. /rant

EDIT: Hey I could change language. The point still stands though. About bad translations.

Electricity has 100% torque from 0 rpm too

Finished main questline in "Murder on Eridanos", part of the DLC for The Outer Worlds. Seen below is one of the subsections of Eridanos. This is a jovian-type gas giant in the Halcyon system currently being mined for resources.

Ohhh which Forza? Koenigsegg has the single gear Regera but only other super car I know to use one. If that’s 5 I must seek it out!

There is really only one, well maybe two real console shooters.

I dunno Syphon Filter was rather memorable but I’ve never gotten on with shooters and Game pads ever…

 

[Cvrk]

@INSTG8R yes Forza 5.
@AlwaysHope i really wanted to play Outer Worlds. I can't. After you get the first main mission, you have to go end open a water valve, inside the compound you get attacked by drone/robots. Every ...single...time i run out of bullets. It's impossible to shoot all the robots, you just don;t have enough bullets.
Started the game from the beginning, tried to do side stuff to increase or get more ammo....not happening. That's the first mission and it's impossible to get more bullets.
I uninstalled the game.

 

[Ruru]

Now playing Final Fantasy X on PS3, man I hate that minigame where you get Tidus' sigil for his ultimate weapon as it's purely luck-based, the last time I got the 0:00:00 with second try, now the RNG just seems to be against me.

edit: got it!

What difficulty level you play on? Can you upload a screenshot of the area your having difficulty in? atm, I'm immersed in Peril on Grogan DLC. Can't recall off hand exactly what part your referring too.

On another aspect of this game in general, I've never seen my system as measured from the wall socket with a watt meter indicate up to 550W load before! with any game I've played in over a decade. This is inside the player's in game menu for resource management, not in the actual game world. Afaik, it's uses Unreal engine v4.2. Think there is some crappy optimization going on here...
Fearing my 750w psu will trip out from 12v rail overload!

 

[Cvrk]

@AlwaysHope mmmm. I did not measure the wattage load, but something similar happen to me when playing Black Book. An excellent over-the-top gem that most people do not know about.
Nothing happens in terms of graphics but the GPU fans go crazy!..i mean super crazy, something when playing that game the fans both of my graphics ard and cpu ramp up soo much. Might also be bad optimization s you say it.

So beatiful

I finished this game some years ago and this game rocks! I played for some minutes just to test my machine, manually set on all max and it performs incredible well and smooth. For some time I'm thinking to replay this master piece but it have SO MUCH puzzles for my taste

At the first time those stunning graphics and this jumpy filly cheered me up to finish this game. No regrets at all

I had to use YouTube to solve some of the puzzles, nothing wrong with that to get them done quicker. It's a shame we have not seen a game from this company in quite some time... these tomb raider games were so well optimized... very underrated games. I enjoyed them more than the Witcher 3 personally.

I seen some videos about those puzzles on church too, few of then are totally nightmare but anyway it took much time to set those things and wait it work alone. The game is awesome for sure, even not liking the climb style it didint become boring for me. Maybe I play it again later, like I did with dying light after so much time.

It grows on you eventually and I find Days Gone to be a welcome change from the other games I've been playing. In fact I did leave it for several months because I couldn't defeat a particular horde. But when I went back to it, I found a blind spot and mowed them down which was very satisfying.

 

[Chomiq]

Finished Judgement. Starting Lost Judgement as I type this. Don't know who in their right mind runs it in 30fps mode, it feels so sluggish. Standard is 1440p 60fps and that's what I will use.

 

[Splinterdog]

Next, attract a horde to swarm all over the beast!

 

[jormungand]

I started Vampyr a a couple of weeks ago since got it from free on EGS so far im loving the game. Its not perfect like for example the camera gets stuck in dialogues were you barely can see each other faces, but really gets you inside that world.
My only complain that is keeping me away from jumping back again more often is....WTH those loading times!!!!!!!
and since i was eager to play GoW i bought it yesterday and wow!!! its a completely different experience from the headache i had with both PS4 models (Slim/Pro)

I try this game via epic games, but I'm facing stuttering problems, here it loads very fast but that stutter when turn the camera sometimes gets me angry. I tried some tricks which I see searching on internet it solved the 62fps locked but those stutters still haunts me

Ive seen some vids and threads of how to fix the loading times on Vampyr but im skeptic to try them, and most of them are for steam platform

 

[Splinterdog]

I've just finished the main story of Days Gone and surprise, surprise, there's still loads to do in the game. More missions, hordes to clear and enemies to take down. Then there's Game+ which I'll probably try when I've cleared the map.
This game is up there in my all-time top five games ever. Production values, story development, graphics, crafting mechanics and above all, character development. I really felt invested in all the major characters, much more than any game I've played, perhaps with the exception of Lara Croft in the later games and one or two individuals in Far Cry 3&4.
And there are certain characters that need a really good kicking, such as Col, Garret and that Skizzo bloke.
