Yup, totally broken then. Unusable.

Gotta love headline hyperbole lol

I’ve already had a Plex pass for ages, so I’ve just been running both concurrently.

Plex is a lot more accessible for my friends and family that are less tech inclined.

“Summer Games Fest”

Essentially the replacement for E3, which ran from 1995 to 2021.

Barrage of game trailers the second week of June has been around for the last 30 years:

I have a bunch of this specific line of Sabrent dock from different generations.

For some reason, some of them are super finnicky about certain high capacity (over 2TB) drives. What’s even weirder is that I have two identical enclosures purchased at the same time, and for any given drive one dock will be weird but not the other - and it’s not consistently the same dock either.

If you must use the disk externally, I recommend that you try another dock or enclosure. Probably not a Sabrent one, lol.

Don’t get that adapter, get an actual enclosure

Why would anyone care what hardware another player is using?

In 2026, Xbox makes way more sense as a games marketplace / publishing platform. I’d love to see the console aspect evolve to something like the Steam Machine, shipping with Microsoft’s software out of the box but with the openness / flexibility to install other OSes if the user so chooses.

That’s actually what I thought this was, lol

Which is surprising, they should have had the stats based on wishlisting alone.

They really should have had this system in place from the get-go, I was actually expecting it to work that way.

8BitDo Ultimate 2 Controller lineup is at 1000hz

Gamesir G7 Pro 8k and Razer Wolverine V3 go up to 8000hz

Polling rate is a hit of a bummer, but then again the Xbox Elite controllers I’ve been using have a lower polling rate and I haven’t really noticed - probably because I’d never use a controller for anything competitive.

Looking forward to clicky switch upgrade kits, love the ones I have for Steam Deck :)

I’m still pretty early in, but the thing that really blows me away is how alive the world feels.

Just moving through nature, there are all kinds of critters dipping in and out if bushes every which way.

On my journey yesterday, I passed through a tannery, a quarry, textile production, and a small encampment that seemed dedicated to charcoal production. Most fantasy RPGs have big cities, small villages, maybe some mines and farmland, and then Wilderness.

Crimson Desert is giving me the impression they really thought out and put in every little logistic that goes to supporting these kinds of societies.

CEOs, accountants, lawyers and middle managers

I’m pretty sure these are the jobs they’re referring to, not the manual labor

Mostly just visual in terms of shine vs matte. For the quality of the joint itself, lead-free has a higher melting point so you need more heat to keep it flowing nicely.

Your joints will do what they’re supposed so, so they’re fine. Chasing perfection is just a fun minigame.

Aliases have been a thing for a while now, though I suppose in this case it would be akin to changing your primary alias

I got it at launch, spent 80 hours in it, and had my fun. With that being said, Bethesda games have hooked me my entire life, starting with Morrowond at age 9.

I keep meaning to go back and finish the main storyline for Starfield. It’s not as engrossing of a world as Fallout or Skyrim, but it’s fun enough for what it is - it’s just not “great” the way Bethesda’s other games are.

Might be worth waiting for a sale price though, there’s always one around the corner.

I see - I don’t do well with the video format, I only read their article.

I have to wonder if they, like me, were considering the potential rather than what was immediately in front of them.

DLSS5 is, after all, an in-development project that currently runs on a second dedicated graphics card. Showing this off the way they did might have been a huge mistake, or maybe this reaction will course-correct what might have actually become a slop filter.

Lighting and shadow some are the most computationally intensive aspects of a game, they’re usually the first settings I dial back when I need to improve performance.

The possibility of running lower settings and having their visual fidelity improved as part of the upscaling pipeline is an appealing one for me. The key would be tuning it so that it can be an enhancement to what’s already there, not something that totally overrides it or makes it look like Gen-AI output.

Context is important. The following sentence is:

The use of two GPUs is required right now as DLSS 5 still has a long way to go in terms of optimisation - both in terms of performance and its VRAM footprint. However, DLSS 5 is designed for use on a single GPU and that’s how it will ship later this year. Quite how scalable it is also remains to be seen, but in common with other DLSS technologies, Nvidia tells us that the computational cost scales with resolution.
