I suppose there is a chance this could happen.

Wait....is 0% still considered a chance?

I have been kind of holding out hope for a switch 2 version.

Wondering if I should bite the bullet and get the switch one version....

I am sure they will for the next 6 months or so while everyone is watching.

We will see what happens after that. I guess it will pretty obvious in day 1 benchmarks though as long as people keep testing with RDNA 2.

None of AMDs responses give me any confidence they will be updating the older driver packages with the same level of day 1 support as the newer drivers.

They are splitting the drivers exactly so they don't need to do this.

None of their responses say anything meaningful to convince me otherwise.

Haha....reading the actual article, it basically points out that people in Gen Z spend money on non-essential things they can't actually afford.

You know who else did that? Every other recent generation. Especially when they were younger.

Awesome! Hope you are doing something fun today/tonight!

The first one?

Kind of feels like a basic res boost and the addition of mouse controls should have been one of the free upgrades.

Congrats! I hope you enjoy the new job.

I am huge Linux enthusiast. I have been using Linux full-time for many years.

As much I would enjoy seeing Linux benchmarks, given the size of the DF team, I would prefer them to focus on the things that makes their content unique instead of spending time generating good Linux benchmarks.

What did you pay them so that you only got pushed to use their services after Windows updates?

dalto @dalto2.bsky.social · 9d

Wait...why is Alex on the left and John on the right?

My brain can't handle this change.......

In any case where the original game is required to play it, I would say it is not a separate game.

I absolutely love Vice City.

This is the least surprising news of the year.

It has been obvious in virtually all their decisions over the last 18 months that they are chasing short-term margins and that those decisions likely came from outside XBOX.

Thanks for the video!

I was surprised at how bad some of the ground textures look in that game.

Even with the lowered expectations for a AA-style game, some of them were really distracting even just watching the video.

I have over 300 hours in SF. I don't think being a Bethesda game is the problem:
* Tons of bugs at launch
* More bugs the longer you played it
* Less interesting the longer you played it
* Post launch support has mostly just added things that should have been there from the beginning

Congrats!

Hope it works out and you can enjoy your job more.

This isn't a huge deal but it seems counterproductive. The incremental revenue Microsoft gets from this is meaningless. They are selling millions of dev kits.

At the same time, it may serve as a disincentive to smaller developers.

I don't think this actually generates revenue for Microsoft.

When I was looking at this Anime season 2 months ago, I didn't see much I was excited about.

I ended up picking up 26 new shows plus the 5 continuing shows I already had on my list.

I already dropped 2 of the new ones but this is still a staggering amount to watch. I may have to drop more.

I watched it a very long time ago so I don't entirely remember it but I do remember thinking it was good. I rated it an 8/10 at the time.

As for it being pervy, I have been watching anime for so long now I think I have become immune to it at this point. I don't even notice unless it is really bad.
