Ashes of Singularity tends to be easy on the action-per-minute requirement, since there's no micromanaging individual units, unless it's the larger ships, so you can probably have a good time with it.

If you think about it, that mission was a red flag about Smoke being a fucking traitor. Fatass couldn't shoot dudes 2 meters away

No, it was some bullshit narrator talking about how USA loves cars, how Japan loves cars, how Germans love cars, giving a short rundown of the history of racing or whatever

The moment I read "no transaction fees", I immediately wondered why that would be listed as a feature. Turns out it's because it uses crypto, though I don't understand why. Free domain names?

So probably before Kazaa was a thing, or before anon knew about it.

I guess normies still equate graphic quality with overall game quality, so that's why there's such a big emphasis on photorrealism for many AAA games. An old colleague from university, ~2010, only liked to play the shiniest, "best looking" stuff and scoffed at 2D games, "we're way past super nintendos".

On the performance side of things, Elbrus has nothing to write home about based on benchmarks that have largely found it "completely unacceptable" for most tasks.

(in a linked article) The testers cited "Insufficient memory, slow memory, few cores, low frequency. Functional requirements not been met at all" as key reasons for the failure.
Elbrus-8C: 8C/8T, 1.30 GHz, 16MB L3, 70W TDP, quad-channel DDR3-1600 memory, 28nm, 250 FP64 GFLOPS

It can probably run Doom, but likely won't run Crysis.

The other console, "MTS Fog Play", is just cloud gaming

This update added a lot of new stuff to the game not counting the new really big island. Human bosses, an "arrogant pal tamer" that wants to see specific pals, a NPC that asks you to do specific emotes and one hidden npc that gave me a book that increases 1 work thingy by 1 (got one for handywork, the game crashed, then got one for planting, so there's possibly one for each work)
My biggest gripe at the moment is with predator pals, which don't always spawn where they're supposed to (fixed locations, unmarked on the map) but drop predator cores, which are needed for the inventory expansion, as well as giant pal souls.

It also added some high QoL chests: one that lets you check ALL the chests in the base and the Guild Chest, which acts as a shared base chest. Another super useful building is the skill fruit farm: plant one, get 3 of the same skill.

The new island starts with several anti-air missile places, but at least it seems you only need to disable them once. Whether the missiles will go through walls or rocks and kill your flyer seems to be random chance, but it at least tries to be physical projectiles.

The 7 minutes walk and talk segment reminded me of Forza Motorsport 6. A fucking car game with a fucking UNSKIPPABLE, long ass stupid fucking intro nobody asked for.

Purkeypile explained that Starfield’s main city, New Atlantis, was the “antithesis” of Fallout 4’s Diamond City.

Baity clicks are still clicks. Very shitty behavior from the site.

“I didn’t work that much on that city,” Purkeypile explained. “I worked on Akila and Neon a fair amount, but New Atlantis, I wasn’t really involved in that much. But I got lost in that all the time when I tried to play the game too it’s so big and Diamond City, you can see, is kind of like the antithesis of that like sprawling city thing.”

There, everything anyone checking needs to read

Outpost Infinity, Executive Assault and something that was cheap and on my wishlist for a long time, totalling BRL 89 (~15 dollars)
