I didn’t spend thousands of dollars on a PC, to play games in crap quality, and I don’t feel like I should be punished for it. Neither should people playing on low settings.

Yeah, maybe I should’ve specified it a bit better, on very low most foliage is still rendered at the same distance, the bushes far away though, are extremely easy to see through on very low. The shadows don’t render nearly as much on very low, which makes it incredibly easy to see someone sitting behind a far away…

When foliage is no longer there when you play on lower settings, it’s a tactical advantage, you can both hide in bushes and see everything that max players can’t, and you can see max players in bushes that are there for them, but not for you.

I do have consoles, but I prefer shooters on PC.

What I hate about PUBG, that has somewhat stopped me from enjoying it, is the lower graphics settings. In a competetive game like this, it really bothers me that you can lower the graphics to the point where it gives you a tactical advantage. For instance, you play on the higher settings, you’re running in a field…

I love how you just gloss over Africa like it’s not a continent full of nations, with very different standards of living. Two can play at that game, how’s America these days?

It’s a societal issue, not an ethnic one. Take those same trouble makers, put them in better environments and they prosper, the same happens in reverse. In years past, you also saw the same kind of in-fighting amongst Irish and Italian immigrants.

I haven’t really played the game on any lower difficulty setting for a long time now, so that’s probably why I didn’t notice it. I’m used to spending my time outdoors looking for glorious cat tail stalks to keep me going :D

I f’ing love The Long Dark! Like you I’ve been playing it since it first came out on early-access, it’s one of my favourite survival games. I love playing it on the interloper difficulty setting, forcing you to go into the wilderness to survive, instead of huddling up in one of the cozy cabins :)

I always play through Morrowind once a year, to me it’s the comfort food of video games.

I have found a new darling amongst the great sea of PC games, Escape From Tarkov. Well, it’s not really unknown, but my God is it good. Rarely have I played game that gets my heart pounding like EFT does. Spending hours to get good gear, then going out into a raid knowing full well that your hard work in getting all…

How about getting evidence before ruining someones life? I’m not calling him innocent, but jesus christ, what happened to innocent until proven guilty?

Aaaaw, I remember the golden days of Soldat, hunkered down at a friends house at a LAN party with my old desktop PC, playing Soldat, Counter Strike, Unreal, Red Alert 2 or AoE2. Those were the days :D

I highly recommend you just stop buying new games for a while, I had the same problem. One day I decided enough was enough and started going through the games alphabetically, not to complete the games, but just to see which of them I’d enjoy. I think you’ll find that you have plenty of entertainment for a while with a…

I’m taking a master’s in interactive digital media, with a speciality in video game development. Not many years ago the mere thought of an academic degree with a video game perspective would’ve been laughed at in many circles, even today many “elder” people can’t fathom that it’s a thing. So who am I to laugh at…

Another thing to “The Bad” side of GTA Online, especially on PC. Hackers. Rockstar has really done close to nothing to remove this plague from GTA Online, they’re everywhere, ruining it for everyone. And you know Rockstar isn’t doing anything to stop it, when the hackers don’t even try to hide their activities, they…

There’s perfectly legit reasons for owning AR rifles. For example boar/hog hunting. When hunting boar/hog you don’t just want a rifle with a lot of stopping power, you want a rifle that can fire repeatedly, why? Because when hunting boar/hog you always have to get really close to them (We’re talking 15-20 meters) and…

Perhaps because both sides of the gun debate can’t have a rational debate about gun laws? The right wants no guns banned! And the left wants the wrong guns banned!

I’ve completely stopped playing Siege on PC, there’s just way too many hackers. I don’t know how easy it is to hack, but compared to other shooters, I run into hackers a lot more often in Siege than any other.

That highly depends on the tester, sure you can hire low paid testers off the street, but if you hire a QA consultancy like some bigger companies do, the price for a single day can cost thousands of dollars, as the testers at those consultancy are usually higher educated/experienced and demand a much higher salary.
