Maybe you should slow down on the hate speech, pal. You’re getting awful crimey with that talk.

That word hurts to read.

Meh, I’ll be dead, so I won’t have to worry about it.

Just leave me where I die and let nature handle the rest.

Tally ho, lads!

What games should do is tell you the impact that settings have on performance. Just a text blurb that mentions how significantly you can expect a setting to matter. I’ve seen it in a few games where some settings are marked with something like heavy performance penalty but it would be nice for more things to be labeled.

Looking at something like the task manager will tell you your CPU or GPU is maxed out, but how do you know what to change to correct this? Can you just change a few barely-noticeable settings, or are you expected to replace your CPU? If the recommended is CPU X, then why is my CPU Y maxed out? If I exceed the recommended build, why is my performance so bad?

Often the recommended build is not enough to max out graphics at reasonable framerates, for example.

Sounds to me like you’d be shocked at the number of people who couldn’t manage to change a tire on their own if their life depended on it.

You can blame whoever you want, but frankly, most people just don’t care to learn anything unless they’re already interested in it. There are tons of people who take their car to a mechanic for the most mundane shit. They’ll call in the Geek Squad when they have a PC problem. They have no interest in learning how their stuff works because there’s always someone else they can pay to handle that.

Where are all the people that grew up with MS-DOS

People for the most part haven’t had to deal with the command line since Windows 95 was released, and that was 30 years ago. Which means anyone old enough to had regularly used DOS is at least in their 40’s now.

I’m still surprised how well received it was, not because I disagree, but just because of the numbers. It’s currently sitting at 95% positive ratings on Steam, and that’s with 229k reviews, for a game that plays so different from what gamers expected out of FromSoft.

Nobody knows because nobody who’s tried to follow through has reported anything happening.

Who’s gonna stop me?

Doesn’t the Xbox 360 have a sleep mode? Basically you’d only need to do it again if the power goes out.

More like gedit

What’s the point of screencapping text that’s already included in the submission? Like the whole process is text-based, and adding pictures or video of that text adds nothing useful.

Are we dating the same woman?

I was thinking kibble, but I like where this is going.

Maybe the sausages are the friends we made along the way

It’s more cod-like right now, but it’s still more strategic and 3-dimensional. I think once people start getting to know the maps better and strategies start to develop more, the run-and-gun style of play will slow down and people will play more carefully and more objective-oriented.

Feed me, mother, for I am but skin and bones!

Cyprus is technically in Asia, not in Europe, and as such it shouldn’t qualify. But they make the rules and choose how to apply them, so they can allow for deviations if they want.
