Chess has been played for ages with no dlc. Competition against another person is engaging on its own. And chess is a good deep game on its own.

Combine competition with a good game and you get a successful infinite live service game in theory.

Only one or the other and you get a flash in the pan.

No. It wasn’t executed well. Plenty of other popular comics, tv shows, whatever have successfully blended sadness or other powerful emotions to their comedy. This one just failed. So it got memed.

Double checked that i had more than 200, that doesn’t seem to fix it. I’ll probably try doing it on my PC later

Made an account and tried to sign up for beta access, but the Submit Application button doesn’t work on my phone for some reason (or its sending 100 applications as i tried a few times lol). Using a Pixel 6, firefox mobile.

Sounds pretty good. Personally i have no interest in Marvel stuff so its not up my alley, but i always like it when a fanbase gets something they enjoy. Have fun!

Blink twice if you signed the contract…

Doesnt help that the combat is unresponsive and janky as fuck anyway, so playing without cheese is an excercise of frustration.

The entire galaxy hinges on them because its a space fantasy with superheros and supervillains… If just anyone could change the fate of the galaxy then it wouldnt be the same star wars. Its fun to be involved in those main events, even by proxy. Just existing in the universe can be fun too, i admit, but its a different fun.

What you describe as the word’s flaws make it perfect though. The word itself is an icon for the actions it describes

Frame generation isnt going to help 30 fps console games though. AMD recommends a base of 60 fps, nvidia recommends 45 iirc. Those numbers will improve over time, but likely not fast enough for the ps5/pro gen to use it at 30.

Corporations leech off cultures and communities, sure. but that doesnt have to devalue them. Its a separate issue entirely.

You dont need a 3k gaming pc to get started. PC has lots of options, thats part of the appeal.

Steam alone has as many monthly active users as the switch has lifetime sales. Its not a tiny niche market.

Its also not unpleasable. There are certain technical standards, sure. But that is true for all consoles as well.

Its not juat about looking nice. Sub-30 fps is genuinely uncomfortable to many people. You aren’t sensitive to it, good for you.

They almost certainly would make less than 2M without steam though

can doesn’t mean should.

720p to 4k using dlss is okay, but you start to see visual tradeoffs strictly for the extra performance

to me it really shines at 1080p to 4k where it is basically indistinguishable from native for a still large performance increase.

or even 1440p to 4k where it actually looks better than native with just a moderate performance increase.

For 8k that same setup holds true. go for better than native or match native visuals. There is no real need to go below native just to get more performance. At that point the hardware is mismatched

2x on a 970? I struggled with my 970 at 1440p low-medium settings until i got the 3080. Often had to put scaling to 1080p. And that was on “last gen” titles, cant imagine still trying to limp that thing along nowadays, despite as much as i loved it.

You must not notice aliasing and shimmering then? Most find it very distracting to see everything flickering and shimmering and stair step with the slightest motion.

And ray tracing really depends on the game, implementation, and hardware. Ray traced global illumination alone fixes the classic video game look that stems from rasterized lighting errors (light leaking, default ambient light, etc). It is the future for high quality games even not photo-realistic ones. Its expense is offset by both reconstruction and improved hardware. You wont be able to avoid it forever even if you want to.

Maybe im wrong and they need support. Maybe im not. I certainly am in no position to say one way or another with authority. But i’d rather be wrong about keeping them shamed than be wrong about letting them feel positive about their issue.

Either way, i respectfully am done discussing the topic for now. I will give your opinions some thought though.

Being a pedo may not be a choice, but acting on it definitely is. And any pedo who has to go searching for pedo friendly communities is not looking for help, theyre looking to get off.

Its not a big secret to them that they have something wrong to live with. They dont need a support community to tell them how not to fuck kids. It shouldnt take that much self control for them to not fuck kids…

I’d even bet the vast majority of them already do just fine living normal lives. Just like the vast majority of “normal” adults dont go around raping each other just because they feel sexually aroused by someone.

This should include a user count in each so we can see just how many pedos and nazis are being punted to their own little disgusting bubbles
