That's the dumbest thing I've ever read in days. This isn't a cultural phenomenon. It's a biological one: single men and women who spend real time together start wanting each other because that's how human mating works. Men get more sexually interested in their female friends than women do in their male ones, it's literally evolution and biology at work. And the stuff people actually care about in opposite sex friends is the same stuff they care about in partners. Acting like that's just "how you were raised" doesn't make the attraction disappear.

Okay, so this doesn’t exist then?

Most modern “optimization” on PC is literally one button in the NVIDIA App for the vast majority of games if your hardware cannot brute force it or let the game auto-pick settings, yes, all modern games auto pick settings.

Also, you clearly know what “larp” means since you got offended by it. Funny.

And “I have an i9” is meaningless. Which one? It matters. A lot. Otherwise it's literally like saying "I have a RTX card" or "I have a Ryzen 9"

Oh yeah, and the "PC does not have GTA6" is rather funny considering its going to get a release on PC..... so yeah, way to use an example to own yourself, not that I'd play it, GTA4 reigns supreme and all.

@Scheme1_ @MethodByVid Holy larp. If you have a 5070 you do not need to care about minimum requirements, you get optimised settings at launch for the vast majority of games.

Ryzen 9 9950x3d rtx4090, I own a ps5, xbox series x and a switch 2. Most of my playtime is on the pc. Simply better games.

The "lets just be friends" thing.. thats a thing you say at the start, and not at the tail end of a "friendship". It is unique only to cross sex friendships, single men and single women cannot be friends unless they're freaking asexsual or made it clear, from the start there is nothing there. Its always going to end up with one confessing to the other or harboring a crush, pretending otherwise is rejecting reality. acting weird when "friends" confess is even more so. lol.

And it is absolutely the case the same woman will be the most depressed/angry as time goes on, just basic biology and brain chemistry bonding at work here, which, yes, your thing demostrates rather nicely. Though the "whore" part was not really needed

@bcheelyeah @techopse Now imagine my horror, the sheer terror of being forced to get through a lot of heavy exposition and prologue in the new fire emblem before you can switch to JP, like, they arent awful voice wise, but i find that "accent" they do to be so jarring..

[Mentelgen @Mentelgen_]

That is the correct play if you want jb any console, just buy it and wait, that so many fail at this basic thing and many get banned/etc is just normies not knowing what they're doing.

Another alternative is never connecting the console to the internet and playing with physical, offline, but hey, what do I know.

[Mentelgen @Mentelgen_]

If art is full AI without personality its jarring in that specific "ive definitely seen this style before" kinda way, but if the gameplay is good its a negligible impact.

If all/most coding was done by AI, the question is does it play well, if yes, no impact.

Gameplay patterns, Loop, The very game idea, how its presented and executed matter more than a Label of "AI therefore Bad"

And I do dabble in some "AI Slop" from time to time, for me specifically I'd just rather not focus on details like "which tools were used" and "how much was done by human hands" but hey, that's just me.

@akaba_ren My brother in morbius, without capitalism there would be no games at all.

Anyhow, the answer is investors becoming the new "customers" as them painting us as "consumers" and overly "woke" messaging is what ruins games and studios.

[Mentelgen @Mentelgen_]

@ryorekuiemu In other words, make good games, make sure you can purchase them easily without junping through hoops, and you're good.

Thats it.

Thats the whole secret.

[Mentelgen @Mentelgen_]

@somean5184 @Shinonomehodaka @TTV_Kaguya @RavenMurcielago In today's pricing its 30k dollars for every game i have, i probably spent 60% of that, give or take.

[Mentelgen @Mentelgen_]

@Shinonomehodaka @TTV_Kaguya @RavenMurcielago By that logic, I've got to be the best pirate you've ever seen.

@WingusDingus_ You mean the normal, reasonable thing to do was optional? I thought thats the intended way to play bg3
