Having it on my PCIe 4.0 m.2 drive is not helping me with my FPS, although it is making the many loading instances happen pretty quick. It’s more an issue of the game being terribly optimized for both CPU and GPU, causing far worse performance than one would expect for even high end hardware considering the visuals in…

I’m loving the game, but a “next gen” game where they’ve “pushed the technology” this very much isn’t. It’s missing lots of graphical features that are fairly standard with most next gen games now.

I mean he isn’t wrong. Outside of those tiny buildings with not much inside, almost every other building has Skyrim and Fallout 4 levels of loading screens. I noticed that in the 20ish or so hours I’ve played so far. Even a random small cave I went in on a random planet with almost nothing inside aside from a few…

Not a single Bethesda game has launched in a way that doesn’t chug on PC.

Insiders have been rumbling about this for a while.

jesus, this is crazy. how did he get this job?

Jet Lag is one of the best things to come out of any entertainment ecosystem, full stop, and I’m happy for any coverage it might get, but....

You’re very loud and one-note in your indiscriminate condemnation of AI art. Which in some ways, makes it cathartic to know that AI art is here to stay. It is a bigger technological evolution than going from pen and paper to digital was for art.

You sound like someone who hasn’t experienced a 3dtv, or VR. Let's not want awesome things to fail. Half Life: Alyx is the best gaming experience I've had in years.

For the record, do you own any VR devices? Have you tried many games?

That fact that you think VR is just a different way of displaying the same old content, like 3D TV, shows you don’t understand VR.

VR is not the 3DTV of 2020s. It’s pretty much took vehicle simulations to the next level and don’t get me started on worlds like Skyrim VR or a modded Commonwealth of Fo4VR.  PCVR is VR.  Not Quest 2 wireless Beat Saber.

My favorite so far

You aren’t wrong, but you are also limited in how much money you can spend. The store that sells them updates items every so often and you can only go so far back on the offers. They also price things rather high making whaling on them rather impractical even by whale standards.

You are also able to farm everything in…

So people should only roleplay in settings that match their culture and characters of their own race. Got it. Cool, cool, cool, excellent.

Imagine a group of allies and progressives being like “hey we want to explore some other cultures in a fun and not appropriation way so let’s hire some people to guide us on that way and present it to people” and standing on the sidelines and being like NO YOU CAN’T DO THAT!!!!
