  • What advice or tips do you have which sound like nonsense but really work?

  • Drivers should be baked into the kernel, yeah, assuming the latest version was installed and regular updates ran after install to make sure all is up to date

    Only extra thing I installed was the command that gave me steam and all the related gaming stuff, was a single line with gaming meta in it iirc.

    What were you trying to test and on what resolution?

  • Running a 9070xt on cachyOS, works great

    If memory serves you basically need the kernel release and stuff from like, December 2025? Somebody can correct me if that’s inaccurate.

  • Works if you’re photosensitive to any degree, which most people are.

  • Video Games Need to Be Cheaper to Buy

  • Is it really that different though?

    Lets say you get the 1 month pass, play any games you want and are part of that “service” for the duration, once it runs out you lose access to the games (unless you crack the downloaded files for them which would be like not returning the “rented” game I guess)

    Personally just feels like the same scam cable tv was and now transforming into streaming services with ads.

    “Humans can survive off a diet consisting of potatoes and butter, as demonstrated by a years long case study commonly known as Ireland”

    Something along those lines.

  • Nvidia might not have any new gaming GPUs in 2026 — and could be 'slashing production' of existing GeForce models

  • I’ll see statements like this thrown around, meanwhile the PS5, Xbox series X and even the upcoming steam machine are all AMD hardware.

  • Don't like how often map conditions rotate in Arc Raiders? Sorry, but the devs say "that most likely won't change"

    Jump

  • Such hubris.

    Is having at least one major condition active at any given time too much to ask?

    What about stuff like the bunker that runs at ungodly hours twice a day and that’s it? Especially when it’s part of the trials for that week?

    They’ve launched a good game but been deaf to a lot of criticisms and requests that could easily become accommodating to more people and more fun and interesting gameplay.

  • Very much of a similar mindset - don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.

    While GoG is certainly not without its faults or shortcomings, at the end of the day they’re trying to stay true to their mission and delivering on it consistently.

  • I actually went to look into the examples mentioned above.

    Hitman was apparently playable with “some targets” and other stuff locked behind online functionality but the base game was playable without. So this part definitely feeds into the “screwing people in new and exciting ways” that you mentioned.

    For Deus Ex MD - apparently the binaries themselves were actually the DRM free ones, but the package that they gave GoG basically redirected all the DRM calls to Steam, which… resulted in a weird situation where it’s half stripped of some DRM measures while the other half required an actual crack to kill those calls that were redirected to a different platform entirely… so overall I wanna chuck it to a lazy “let’s get some brownie points and release it on GoG but let’s use this intern to package and ship it cuz we can’t be arsed to do a proper release” type of scenario.

    Do I blame GoG for not checking it throughly? Yeah, a bit, but at the same time the onus should be on the providing party to deliver an adequate product that’s up to the requirements of the platform and if it’s not, maybe have a financial penalty clause for non-adherence in the distribution contract or something, I don’t know, I’m not a lawyer or anything.

  • If it was really mandated by the company and not a bug, GoG support would not have provided any workarounds to get around it while the situation was being looked into and hashed out with a permanent fix deployed in a subsequent patch.

  • If you’re talking about the phantom liberty DLC bug with the galaxy launcher, that’s been fixed since patch 2.01

    Also they’ve been separated out of CDPR recently, we’ll see how that pans out for future releases.

  • The developers of PEAK, explaining how they decided on pricing for their game.

    Jump

  • Unfortunately up here the Benjamins to beaver bucks conversion rate sucks. And then we have to pay 15% tax on top.

    So anything that’s trying to follow that logic breaks apart real quick, even when there’s 10% off on launch, still comes out to more than the full price would be.. :(

  • Libs of TikTok is doxxing teachers and nurses who support Alex Pretti or oppose ICE, trying to get them fired

  • I understand what you’re trying to say, but “most” people don’t actually have TikTok or Twitter or proper comprehension when it comes to stuff they’re not intimately familiar with.

  • Do you think you would survive if you received every injury of your life at once?

    Jump

  • Most people fail to account for all the injuries you sustained as a child and walked off. All the hits to the head, mouth, ears, every single wall you ran into while learning to walk as a compound force.

    Think most people would have immediate brain hemorrhage and die purely from all of that, and if not then probably a broken spine, especially when you’re older and have lost a lot of the elasticity that allowed you to simply absorb the impact as a kid.
