Playing "those who rule" turn based tactics JRPG(style). I am enjoying it, but it's perma death for your units. So it takes me like 10 tries every level because I can't handle losing a character forever. MAYBE later when I stop liking a character, or have too many, I will allow some to die. The story is pretty basic so far, but im only on the third non training fight. You control some ranger group troops. Everyone is betraying everyone. You're very clearly fighting for the bad guys. I hope it turns out everyone is evil, just like real life. There is no world map or anything, just dialogue sections followed by a fight. There are lots of conversations between the different characters, which is kinda interesting because characters can die so you can definitely miss out on side objectives and stuff. My only real problem with it is that I'm constantly restarting fights due to perma death. Which is fine, but they make you go through the dialogue over and over which gets annoying after the 10th try. There are story choices you can make, but it kinda feels like those choices don't really matter. Example. Very early on you can choose to surrender or to fight. If you choose to fight it just cuts to black and you move on to the next section... I can't imagine choosing to surrender would give you anything different, though I have not tried. I dislike pointless dialogue choices. The only game I use a walkthrough guide with are the persona games. Mostly because there is a "correct answer" that has positive effects, and bad answers are just bad. Often there is no discernable reason for that answer to be correct. Or maybe it's just too cryptic for me to tell.

Napoleonic column tactics? Well I suppose they can lower the crime rate in a one block radius.

I think these crashes are related to RTX 5090 or shader cache because I too have a RTX 5090. My game still crashes at startup on 0.2.0.0 with the latest NVIDIA driver. Im still sad.

After AXL update - grass etc are growing back again even you get rid of those "grass base stuff"

Yeah, I dropped RT to medium and gained almost 60 fps. I was kind of hoping to go all out in the game, but I guess it's too much. That being said I don't notice much difference between medium and ultra. What I need to do is move to a new platform, even with the 6950x the system is showing it age. But on the other hand I don't want to spend 2k euros. In other news, I managed to break 2 usb ports on my MB, by snagging the cables. Not once, not two times, by three times. You know what they say, third time's the charm... Good thing I have 10 more.

Pretty good conversation with a lawyer about the acquisition.

Two things: Control in your use case is much more limited by turning on full ray tracing than PCIE bandwidth, and secondly, well, even though 8 lanes on PCIE 3.0 seems a bit low by today's standards, it only becomes a really huge problem for your GPU when you run out of VRAM. Which on 1440p, with a 16GB model, isn't going to happen with Control. Or most other games at the moment. If any at all. If you had an RTX 5060 (TI) or a RX 9060 XT with 8GB, then, well, the card would probably crap itself, even on PCIE 3.0 x16. Well, maybe not in Control, IIRC it just starts dropping texture quality or entire textures when VRAM gets low, but for games like Veilguard the 1% lows just drop by over 50%.

I did a teacher training with the Marines a couple years ago. It was surprisingly progressive, and the explanation was we need to constantly recruit teenagers, and we can't afford to turn off young people. That doesn't mean it is easy or the bar is low. Far from it, they were really pushing for the kids that want to further their education, because the military will pay for it. Anyways, I haven't seen recruitment numbers recently, but I would think they are going to take a hit. I'm sure they'll just bring back he draft to compensate. That will be popular.

This made me miss @Krookie

The bots are convincing me the Luddites were right.

Yeah 30USD monthly. I can understand why people are getting less interested in that service, if you can get few good games on sale for that money (even on physical medium).

Maybe it will force developers away from spending all their attention on eye candy and action. One can hope.

Age of Wonders 4 is a true Paradox title with the third expansion pass announced.

Yeah, we were all busy rolling in money and honeys.

So I just made a pine lounger and when hoops sits in it she’s above and to the left of it, is it a glitch or something that needs fixed? I’m on Xbox series S by the way

Chief Wiggum runs faster than that

Since enemy bugs usually have Red eyes to show they're hostile Purple eyes to show that they're under O.R.C. control Why not implement a feature for us to change our Buggy's eye colour? Maybe it can be set to Blue for friendlies or even just an option people can choose! Just a lil suggestion I think would be cool.

I was thinking it would be cool to either be able to earn seasonal cosmetics through special missions like collecting candies or something at Christmas you get a Christmas tree and Santa and elf suits and Christmas cookies or summer you can get a pool and swimwear or for valentines you get like heart shaped furniture recipes

more and more ai thumbnail on ytube it is really scary at this point feel like grumpy old person screaming at cloud

Dear Obsidian Moderation Team, Are you okay? Love, Bartimaeus

New update for both game and driver, still crashes after reboot. Its frustrating to revert back to an older driver to play. I posted a new post.

0. Asus RTX 5090 GPU 1. PC Game Pass 2. Multiplayer Shared (Host) 3. I have to revert to an older NVIDIA driver for the game to load up. Not sure whats going on, I think its something to do with shaders cache. (My guess) The reason why I say this is because the game works and loads perfectly the FIRST time after a new game or driver update then after restarting PC the second time on, continuous crashing at startup. The freezes at the load screen then crash never to load into the game. 4. See below.

I have to wonder about the types of conversations American parents are having with their kids about being recruited into the military forces at the moment. This delusional president wants the armed forces to wage war on mostly unarmed American civilians. I mean that is the very definition of terrorism. What a (figuratively) crazy situation.
