I was watching an onboard of a driver who had track reports pop up on his phone before approaching a yellow. However there is the conflict of having people check phones on a race track, while people obviously mount their phones to the dash, they also want to enforce people not using their phones.
There are plenty of…

You’re confusing Trump voter with Narcissist.
A narcissist can exist anywhere, and Trump happens to exhibit that behavior.
I spent several years stuck in a horrifying, seemingly unbreakable relationship with a very left-wing narcissist who regularly quoted Trump by accident; using identical condescending phrases as…

It feels staged only because narcissistic personalities operate that way.
They are never at fault and are capable of having a story that conflicts truth right away. Part of their whole lie structure comes from immediately coming out with blame and being loud about it to drag others in with the hopes they hear their…

I’ve been hanging on to my 1070 for ages, the last two generations of nvidia cards have been pocked with bad news, including my neighbor having a 2080 shoot a few flames after a week of use (when the 2080 was new).
Definitely feels misleading just to dump it on New World, and while this issue does pop up on this game…

Still haven’t dived into the special fishing spots, I just mass-fish when I decide to crack open a drink or have a snack, it’s a great mini-game to relax into.
As for the crafting mats, you’re looking at the “material downgrade” category. You can downgrade things like Steel ingots into Iron ingots and it is placed…

It’s definitely been interesting joining a large MMO in it’s starting phases.
Some friends and I did a bit of pvp and had a blast, especially how things can snowball from a small skirmish to others joining the standoff at some sort of key point. The gunplay with muskets is refreshing for an mmo, there is much less…

Yes, actually.
Part of my group of friends decision on our server was based on dodging the streamers. During beta, New World was most watched on twitch for a good amount of time. Considering the game has a lot of PvP oriented gameplay that adjusts the map control of the three factions, a lot of these streamers are…

My friends booked the day off for release and I was realizing I have a massive deadline and would be missing out until the weekend. At the same time I was already anticipating the usual day-1 server crash as millions of people all try to get in on it, so I’ll definitely be trying to get on for a little bit tonight…

There is! And just like before, the offline mode saves a local file for your character, as a result this character cannot be played with online mode characters (super easy to hack these). But honestly, 95% of my diablo playing has been solo, so I’m surprised I always keep the character online.

I think it’s fine as it is as far as making the game exactly the same with a facelift and functionality with modern resolutions.
However, once ladder play is introduced I think they can get away with bringing the gameplay up to date and making seasonal balance adjustments etc, self-contained into that play mode.

When I loaded it up the first time I felt that it looked exactly as I remembered it, as in this awesome, detailed, gritty game that I played when I was in the 7th grade. After tapping the G key to toggle to the legacy graphics, my mind was absolutely blown by the comparison.
The art team did an incredible job at…

That was a really fun watch, the backfiring was far more intense than I expected.

Get your head out of the gutter! clearly they would be “throbbing”.

I actually hate the sensation of skin on touch screen, those gloves that come with my HUION drawing tablet are a dream. These little things are sort of neat, winter is on it’s way so I’m likely at least getting some new texting gloves. I had some great wooly gloves with conductive wool in the fingertips for texting,…

Yeah some games do it well, for instance the recent Diablo II remaster not only did a pillarbox, but also a nice vignette leading up to it, making it feel less harsh and when you get involved into the game- completely forget about the edges. (with 5120x1440 selected)

Resolutions definitely can be modified as you are…

“Most I’ve ever hurt myself gaming was grinding the skin off my thumb during a Gran Turismo endurance race”
Whoa that brings back a memory of GT3, those 100 lap endurance races definitely left me without a thumbprint for several days.
Funny thing, of all the times my parents likely would have asked me to turn it off…

A setting I want to see more often is a cropped 5120x1440 for games that function better at a 16:9 aspect ratio. Basically throw black on both sides to compensate the extra monitor space, and preserve the resolution that the game was intended to be played in.
Ultra-wide is fantastic for some games, but for many it’s a…

Disney rarely puts main production level animation staff (animators, lighters, etc in non-dev or below supervisor roles) in credits of tv-level productions which also have the most common crunch-based scheduling.
Netflix on the other hand, and I think I’ve brought this up before, put everyone on the main-line into…

I haven’t played since GT3 and also have not owned a console since but this really makes me want to snag a PS5 next year, at least I’m in no rush in the current buyers climate. I’m really liking everything I am seeing here, the Lancia Delta Integrale really lifts my heart on top of it all.
Only downside is my Fanatec…

I started in school for CGI work in 2007, it’s amazing how much has changed since then. Photogrammetry of course has been around for awhile (there is a great comment in here about the Pod Race scene in Star Wars) but accessibility was far more of a mega-budget R&D reality.
I remember back when I was learning, taking…
