I don’t think this is a graphics problem. I think people are just tired of silent protags. I mean, people were starting to make fun of it even when HL2 was new, enough so that the game actually draws attention to it in order to lampshade the issue somewhat.
Hm, fair point. I personally hate external accounts because it makes your ownership of your purchase that little bit more tenuous. Your continued access is now contingent on Valve remaining extant and good, Epic remaining extant and… tolerable, and the game’s servers, assuming EFD has those and offers no local / P2P option. Admittedly if that last is the case, you would hope if things fell through with Epic that the publishers would come up with some other solution, but I know it took a LONG time for most games that straddled the Steam+GFWL boundary to become playable again after GFLW died. And I’m not sure if they all did.
I am tempted to agree with you. I could see some theoretical scenario where some influencer with a large following convinces them to all review something poorly just because they say so. If that happened, I think it would be legitimate to call it review bombing. I don’t think it’s likely, mind you, that someone could convince a large enough group of people to do that without a valid reason. But it could theoretically happen.
Yeah, I wanted to ask about that. Is it “review bombing” if the complaints are legitimate? I thought review bombing was mass downvoting a game for reasons unrelated to the game, or for otherwise unreasonable reasons.
Shit that’s a weird headline to read…
I know nothing about this game at all, but I will now judge it based entirely off the preview graphic on this post.
Hmmmm looks like an uninspired hero shooter with insufferable characters.
Anyone know how close I was?
This seems accurate :3
There is that, I suppose. Would just be nice if this self-centred speech pattern weren’t a thing. I don’t really see it in other English speaking countries, but all the time in US news and media.
I don’t believe there was any specific API in use here, for virus scanning or not. I suppose maybe the device driver API? I am not a kernel developer so I don’t know if that’s the right term for it.
Crowdstrike’s driver was loaded at boot and caused a null pointer dereference error, inside the kernel. In userspace, when this happens, the kernel is there to catch it so only the application that caused it crashes. In kernelspace, you get a BSOD because there’s really nothing else to do.
I know Americans like to say “American” instead of “person” all the time, but are you really implying the rest of us deserve to get shot?
While I agree with this, why is it in quotes? Who is OOP quoting? Like, would this be less convincing without the quotes?
I wish them luck. I’m sure MS is considering just closing the studio. :/
Game Pass has been an awful money hole for MS since its inception. There’s no way it can make money without a dramatic increase in price for way less. It’s been so clear from day one that the hope was for gamers to just… stop buying games and for their service to become the only thing so they could later jack up the price when other options are gone, like streaming services did.
You might actually want to consider a DJI Power 500 or 1000. They’re actually portable power banks but can supposedly work in UPS mode, and will run for WAY longer than a traditional lead-acid battery UPS. See also Ecoflow’s options.
You can mod it into a FPS?? :0
Zomboid isn’t an im-sim, tho.
“See? We got something in common, you and I. In fact you could say… you could say I’m just like you.”
I definitely agree on the lack of local / direct connection options.
