  • Just like a movie theater, people are used to 24fps in a movie and anything else makes it seem weird and less dreamlike to transport them into the world. (But games aren’t 24fps movies, I know. Not the point)

    When you clean up all of the visual post processing, the game will look extremely clean. Which makes it feel like it’s missing some kinda extra polish. People are so used to all of these elements added for a grounded and dirtier experience that without them it looks, and more importantly, feels too game-y for Ubisoft. (Counter-Strike is super clean, for example)

    Look at Resident Evil 2 Remake and you see every single cinematic option in the book, down to lens distortion, being used and being able to be turned off in the settings. It’s the look and feel the studio wants to go for.





  • I feel like Lemmy is on its way and its main benefit is that it’s not as cynical as Reddit to EACH OTHER.

    So many people on reddit gripe about the smallest shit, especially the Steam Deck reddit, that conversations become either you’re with my ideas or you’re against my ideas. Like even though you’re just trying to help others play a game, “I’m insulting you for free because of the way you said lowest fps is 33 with drops down to 29. I don’t think it means what you think it means.” (of course shoving a meme in there because that’s their identity at this point)

    I clearly meant average, but oh here comes -20 comment score when I explain that.

    I see nicer comment chains from people on opposing political sides here even though I know a usual reaction these days would be to tear at each others’ throats. Lemmy isn’t devoid of it, but Jesus at least it isn’t like how Reddit predictably uses a scalpel on your comments to find something to complain about.

    But I think this might be the result of tailoring my experience over time with instances I want to see from and communities. That level of customization is awesome. But it does suck to see so many instance drama things happening in a much more rapid pace than reddit.

    Well even if the software is functional, the underlying OS doesn’t support it in ways that are important. Like suspend and resuming games. Then when Windows can have a random update, the extra software may break or run into serious problems until the devs can get an update up for it as fast as they can on reaction. Nvidia STILL commonly runs into these problems with just Gpu updates. Things always break and they gotta have multiple versions of stability going and staying on top of updates for the latest games.

    In other words, nobody has a problem with Windows until Windows suddenly spawns one for them to have for seemingly no reason and at the worst times. The more Beta the software is, the more commonly this happens.

    I do gotta say those controllers may finally be a replacement for Joycon on PC. They look great!
