Me: Always bought consoles when prices started going down

Console manufacturers: We choose to leave this market untapped this time.

The only 'eating' spam bots deserve is what Saturn did to his son.

Gotta love Steven Ogg.

IIRC, Openrouter has free Deepseek models. Best I can offer unfortunately.

At the same price. Don't forget that important point.

Say it with me now: "Fuck Randy Pitchford"

UE5 is a shit engine as of now, but what can be expected of a company run by someone just as insufferable? Epic took the advent of tech like DLSS and frame generation as an excuse to disregard performance and functionality.

All you have to do is pick out any UE5 game that exists and Google that + "performance." Even meeting the recommended specs for Rogue City, I still had to find specialized configs to get the game the game stop crashing on launch, and even then, those specs were based on using upscaling and frame generation. In reality, "recommended" was about 25fps at 1280x720. That used to be, and realistically should be unthinkable.

AND EVEN THEN, the engine's built-in settings for upscaling and frame generation caused even more crashing. Ultimately, I had to disable it in-game and turn it on in my driver settings because of the busted-ass engine. This is a problem with the state of gaming, and people like Randy, Tim and their supporters are only exacerbating it.

The only good Postal game

Unquestionably shit take.

Edit: Read the article. Really just another shit gaming journalist. Their whole justification for why the rest of the series isn't good basically boils down to "I only wanna play boomer shooters."

Twice!

Realistically speaking, why would anyone think it's odd to defend something they use and/or enjoy? That doesn't really point to anything abnormal.

But does it cause this when when used exclusively for RP gooning sessions?

Gimp, for example, is far superior to Photoshop.

Except it really isn't, unfortunately. As someone who fucking hates adobe and Photoshop, GIMP falls far short. Photoshop is made to work as part of a toolkit, and GIMP isn't interested in any form of compatibility. Take, for example, an issue that's been around (and in the bug tracker) since the release of 2.10. Something about the way GIMP handles colors means that most programs can't use alpha channels output by GIMP correctly, and see it as having much higher contrast than it's meant to. The stance seems to be that this is intended behavior. However, this is clearly not the case, as even when only using GIMP, re-importing the image shows that, even though the contrast is correct, data was still lost.

Which is both depressing and confusing considering the sharply increased price on games and the system itself coupled with the increase in wealth disparity. If I were a conspiracy theorist type, I would say rich people/companies are buying systems at an extreme rate in an attempt to normalize the increasing prices and further erode the middle class.
