I would understand if these were at least remotely similar games, but these don't make much sense lol

Well technically I played it on "PC" years back on PS Now lol. Although it wasn't a really nice experience with its low resolution and sometimes sluggish response.

"PS5 Pro Enhanced"

All they had to do was just upgrade framerate for PS5 and PC. And maybe update textures, and perhaps increase lighting quality without altering it entirely. Probably would've cost them significantly less time to remaster it that way, and get the same amount if not more sales out of what they got now.

Lol I knew the reference without the link haha

It's the same with OnlyFans. It wasn't even meant as a porn/sexual medium, but like well over 90% is probably just that.

I just don't hope Twitch let's it roam wild, they just need to man up and call it what it is, it's porn and sexual content, give them their own category and keep them there.

€70 for an almost 10 year old game, which is locked to 30 FPS, often looks worse than the original, swapped out songs for worse picks. Overall seems like a downgrade.

No thanks.

It's like how they slapped 'Smart' on every tech product in the past decade. Even devices that are dumb as fuck are called 'Smart' devices. Words entirely lost their meaning because of advertisers abusing trendy words.

Even 'AI' is being abused. I always thought of AI as artificial consciousness, an unnatural and created-by-humans self-aware and self-thinking being. Most of the AI products now are just search engines, image generators and apps being programmed to do something. In fact stuff like ChatGPT would've made more sense to actually be called 'Smart' search engines instea of 'AI'. They might be technological achievements, but they're not AI.

A while ago I got hit in the recommended streams with a random stream of some girl with absolutely gigantic milkers in only bodypaint. Probably got away with it as some sort of 'art' project, despite the body paint being quite bad and she was practically doing nothing on stream at all, it was just simps throwing money at her for being on screen.

Other times there's just girls in the 'Just chatting' category in tight spandex, leaving nothing to imagination, that are in suggestive poses and flaunting their gigantic tits and asses on screen. Also doing practically nothing but just posing and thanking donations.

Twitch really has weird ass rules when it comes to this shit.

It almost reads like a satire article, it's quite ridiculous.

The games there better not run on any emulators.

I remember it barely scratching 20 FPS and I simply could not finish the game because of it, it was a super jarring experience. Even with fixed cameras.

I have played plenty of 30 FPS games as well, it's less of a problem when it's a consistent framerate, but it was just so insanely bad in Until Dawn. Nowadays I would expect nothing but a minimal 60 FPS though.

I could've sworn I've seen something like this in a W10 or W11 installation not even that long ago though.

It's not something I imagine EU would just forget about whenever a new OS dropped.

I thought we've already been through this before?

I vaguely remember getting the option which browser to use during an install before.

Feels like they need to stop nitpicking about this stuff. I barely know anyone that even uses Edge, it's almost like it just functions as a downloader for Chrome or anything else.

At what point are they gonna stop? Until Windows comes without any browsers at all? And we'll have to store copies of installers on USBs And postmail Google if we want a copy of Chrome.exe because we accidentally deleted it?

Well, looks like then I might have to start shutting down my use of Chrome.

I used to be fine with adverts, not a big deal. Until they became insanely intrusive. Noticed that YouTube recently stopped to even show the countdown to skip or the length of the actual ad on some devices/apps, so it's always guesswork when you can actually skip or how long it would run after the skip becomes available. And the amount of ads going in videos is getting disgusting as well, I know it's partly up to the creators, but fucking hell I often get ads like not even a minute into the video already, often running longer than the time I've spent actually watching the video.

Reddit turned into a fucking cesspool of circlejerking degenerates trying to act like they're the holy guardians of the internet.

It's a huge platform, but every day it dies off more.

I was only going off the reply, didn't read the article.

Perhaps they should just move to an earlier point of time in the universe so a lot more possibilities could open up. They could even make it an MMO kind of game with the different factions, the setting would lend itself quite well for it.

A few years ago I tried to get into Unreal, but after a while it's easy to come to the conclusion why most game studios aren't one-man companies. Unless you'd just asset flip, or go for a pretty basic kind of game, it's just so much work that it stops being a fun hobby and just becomes something that would turn into a full-time job, without pay lol.

Used to do modding and maps for various games back in the days, like Battlefield 1942 and Jedi Knight games, even dabbled some in 3DS Max and Cinema4D, was pretty fun creating stuff. But taking on an entire game concept is so incredibly daunting.

Man, spent so many hours in it. Recently installed it again and it still runs perfectly fine too.
