Played Crimson Desert for 2 hours and I decided to just get a refund. It's not a bad game, the combat is great and the world is beautiful, but the story, controls and side characters and NPC's are god awful. I don't like playing too many open world games at the same time and I went in expecting an experience similar to Witcher 3 or Red Dead Redemption or Assassins Creed (1-3 not the newer AC games) and it wasn't even close to that. I was expecting to get to a point where I would start having fun and 2 hours in and I wasn't having fun at all. I'll wait for Tides of Annihilation and Phantom Blade 0 to scratch that Action game itch.
@UTxJGTheDon As long as you can go on YouTube and watch somebody actually play the game there's no need for reviews. somebody will play it for you and then you can decide if you like it.
Absolutely hilarious the hypocrisy when it comes to review scores and metacritic when it's a game you're ready to shit on vs a game you've been anticipating.
Right now the narrative surrounding Crimson Desert is "game journalists are bad" "metacritic doesn't matter"
@SawyerMerritt Cooling it's -455 in space
The temperature in outer space is most commonly described as about -455 °F in the vast, empty regions far from stars or planets.
he thinks there will be a cooling problem?
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang in new interview on orbital datacenters:
"The challenge of course is that cooling, you can't take advantage of conduction and convection, so you can only use radiation, and radiation requires very large surfaces, but that's not an impossible things to solve. There's a lot of space in space. We're going to go explore it. We're already radiation hardened. We have Cuda in satellites around the world. In the meantime, we're going to explore what is the architecture of datacenters look like in space. It'll take years, but that's ok. I got time."

@SawyerMerritt You need fins the size of 10 international space stations sticking off of each side of the data center to dissipate the heat that it'll create. You have to block out the sky to building data center in space.
@RinoTheBouncer I never intended to buy it. I just enjoyed all the discourse around it. If it goes on sale in the future I'll probably pick it up. I've seen actual gameplay so reviews don't mean anything. I can judge for myself based on what I've seen.
There is a witches convention coming to town and there’s an internal debate amongst a group at my Church.
Half of us want to go the convention to pray outside it with Rosary prayers & hymns.
The other half are fearful & say it could put us in spiritual danger.
What do you say?
@TheDirtBagFace I've never even considered trying that game even though it pops up on my steam page everyday. Personally I think final fantasy 11 is the definition of a MMO RPG and it's the best one that's ever been made.
MMO players, quick question.
If there was a game that had:
• World of Warcraft style MMO world
• New World style gathering and large siege battles
• Path of Exile style monetization (free base game + cosmetic shop)
Would you try it?
Because that game already exists..
It’s Guild Wars 2!
Free to play.
No subscription.
And it’s on Steam.
It also does something most MMOs don't. It respects your time.
You can quit for 5 years, come back, and your gear is still usable. You literally can pick up where you left off. AND ITS FREE TO PLAY 🤯 No expansion gear treadmill.
The world itself is huge, dare i say MASSIVE too.
Mountains, caves, hidden jumping puzzles, deep/vast explorable underwater zones and cities.
Instead of quest hubs, the maps run events where dozens of players suddenly end up defending towns or fighting massive bosses together.
Pvp has matchmaking as well as "world vs world", which is basically a huge battlefield warfare with siege weapons and armies fighting over castles.
Also.. the mount system might be the best in any MMO. Each mount has unique movement mechanics, not just speed boosts.
And the community is known for being one of the friendliest in the genre. I could go on and on. I keep getting asked in stream about this game and I always have to stop and share my passion and love for everything this game has to offer.
If you like MMORPGs and somehow missed this one, I highly recommend checking it out.
GW2 players, help spread the word!

DLSS 5 haters are straight up clowns 💀
You screamed for realism for 20 years.
Now it literally matches the real reference model closer than the original Resident Evil character ever did…
…and you’re still whining.
Turn it off and cope harder.
