djsaskdja@reddthat.comto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Baldur's Gate 3's Larian proved players “are not stupid” and want more “deep-a** CRPGs” instead of AAA schlock, says beloved indie publisher [Dave Oshry of New Blood Interactive]English10·8 days agoI don’t think it’s just the visual for people. They go on these epic quests and gain emotional attachments to their party members. It’s basically interactive erotica with dragons and shit.

There’s nothing saved on my system I couldn’t afford to lose. All my work stuff is saved in Google Drive for better or worse. I have a few small files in a personal Proton Drive that I backup manually. I wipe my own system a few times a year and I rarely ever save anything first. Honestly very refreshing to live your life like that. Other than my cat, pretty much all my possessions could disappear tomorrow and I’d get over it pretty quickly.

djsaskdja@reddthat.comto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•*Permanently Deleted*English0·2 months agoI remember seeing the trailer for it about a year before it came out. Think it was during the coming attractions for a different indie film. My initial reaction was like wow that looks horrible. Like I assumed it’d be a campy romp that might find an audience, but maybe 25% on RT max. No one was more shocked than me to see it winning 5 Oscars including best picture lmao.
I thought this was going to be like the old web browser falling sand game. Disappointed it’s not but this still looks pretty fun.

Like a lot of these companies have more money than God already. They could eat the extra cost and be fine. Seems like they’re just being greedy to me.
djsaskdja@reddthat.comto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Microsoft Once Believed HoloLens Could Be Gaming's Future, Now It's A Military ProductEnglish14·2 months agoMicrosoft has seen itself as a platform company harkening back to the Ballmer days. That’s what his infamous “developers developers developers” coke fueled rant was all about. They make the bones of a platform and count on 3rd parties to build it out into something usable. If that never happens, the project is DoA. If that does happen as intended, they just buy the companies that do it best.
djsaskdja@reddthat.comto Opensource@programming.dev•Pebble OS is already running on new hardware following source code dropEnglish48·3 months agoKind of a misleading headline. They have a working prototype. Nothing even close to ready to ship.
djsaskdja@reddthat.comto PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Doom: The Dark Ages requires a GPU with ray tracingEnglish1·3 months agoHow many 8 year old computers still function halfway decently? Most of those people are probably due for an upgrade whether they know it or not.
Even if we go with this popular narrative, no one is actually going to immediately run to throw out their working Win10 PC when Microsoft cuts off updates. They’ll just continue to use it insecurely. Just like millions of people did and still do with Win7.
This is the issue with using a proprietary operating system in general. Eventually they’ll cut you off arbitrarily because there’s a profit motive to do so. Relying on them to keep your system updated and secured indefinitely is a naive prospect to begin with.
Runs fine on my decently powerful Linux desktop via Proton at least. I was at like 80 FPS on high settings 1440p in the overworld. maybe like 50 FPS on ultra. In smaller dungeons the FPS was significantly higher.
