I feel like they could have made a very grounded gangster story at heart and then just add really absurd aspects. Like one gang has a crashed alien spaceship that they use tech from, but play it completely straight faced and treat it like it's not that abnormal. That way you have a juxtaposed serious attitude mixed…

There HAS BEEN, but is there anything like that right now? A lot of the really goofy games from that Era have dried out in favor of run of the mill copycats of other popular games. Indies are basically the only space that tries weird, silly, or unique ideas. 

Graphics were once a way to tell if a game had a certain quality to it, but that was a long long time ago. It feels increasingly pointless to point out graphics when the games that are the prettiest usually have the shallowest gameplay due to the resources they take to just render and run. You would think the runaway…

On the opposite angle, choosing the bad options in a more open ended simulation like Rimworld is more fun. Maybe its just the direct ramification of consequences that people like to avoid. In Mass Effect the characters are mostly fully realized and you feel kind of bad, but in Rimworld they are goofy little pawns and…

I think if you’ve watched anime since the old days, then it isn’t particularly special. If, however, you were a newer fan or haven’t been exposed to older shows, then Demon Slayer is essentially an introduction to older anime tropes and lightheartedness. Then you add in the animation and the very excellent 19th…

In contrast, if you kept them in a binder for their entire life, like I somehow managed to do, they end up being worth quite a bit. I sold a binder when the craze took off for around $750 and the cards were valued around $1400 given the conditions. I just wasn’t going to play the rating game and spend money down the…

Reprinting in MTG is aimed at keeping prices lower and keeping cards playable as well. Formats and reprints kept MTG financially afloat for so long. 

See, now that is good information. How does the wireless connect work for quality? Is that a native Oculus thing, or a third party service? I’ve used stuff like VR Cat in the past for the old Samsung Gear and it was ok for some stuff.

It does add resolution, but not refresh rate. The original CV kit does 90hz as well. Again, I have the PC and space with a setup where the wires don’t bother me. The game selection without also connecting to PC is also not very impressive for the Quest 2 from what I’ve seen, so I would still need the PC to play the…

I already have a very good PC though, which is why I prefer the dedicated PC model I already have. The no cable part sounds great, but my understanding is that the degree of motion is not as good as a complete sensor set up from the original models. At least when it comes to full degree of motion and not just directly…

I mean the original release CV2 or whatever it is called with the sensors and cables going everywhere. I have space set aside for mine, so I don’t have many drawbacks. I also have a beefy PC, so I can max things out and experience no droppage. 

I mean, sure, but my PC is pretty beefy so I can experience non-exclusive content better on my current Oculus. I’ve also heard that the degree of motion is still not as good as the original base stations (if you had the space, patience, and know-how to set them up properly)

Everything about this is rad, except the Oculus Quest 2 part. I already have the original Oculus and it still works great. Why would I waste money on a set that doesn’t add anything? A PS5 exclusive that can’t be played on PS4 makes sense, but there isn’t anything here that can’t be experienced on other Oculus…

I went even cheaper on a lot of my early builds. A new 580 8GB was $160 then though, and it probably can still run everything on high. Used market for 1060s / 1070s was great when the 30 series came out. Might still be a good way to go about getting the most bang for your buck. 

I’m in on the conspiracy theory that he is Mr. Blue Eyes. I am not sure why more of the world wouldn’t mention him unless he wasn’t a public part of the events at Arasaka. Johnny seems like the actual fall guy from that event. 

Huh? This game looks, feels, and reads just like the fiction that inspired the tabletop it’s derived from. The corporations, the implants, the character names, all of it is the lore of the world. So much of it is really cool too. The world of Cyberpunk is fully realized and you can see a lot of it in game. The world’s…

I guess I don’t understand what people thought the game would be? It is exactly what it has always been in the game demos that they showed over time. It doesn’t have the pieces that they said they might be able to add, like car customization or multiple houses, but it has everything that they stated was coming to the…

The game plays just like a first person Witcher, so I think its safe to say this is what it was meant to be from a gameplay standpoint. It’s fun enough to keep you busy as you enjoy the amazing narrative the game offers.

No one “suffers”. Its a card game. The company makes money from the sales because they fly off the shelf. If a retail company doesn’t see it as a trend, then yes they will go over on stock, but that is 100% bad business planning and poor market understanding. The people who pay the increased price online do so because…

I absolutely went out to find rarer types of packs and boxes when I saw the craze could be lucrative from a resale standpoint. I live in the middle of no where, so cards will sit on the shelves here more often than they would in a place like California where the hype seems to have gone nuclear. Meeting demand when you…
