After Bucha, there was no doubt that this was going to happen, and it's going to happen again, and again. But it's still heartbreaking, I agree. Just when you think a nation could not be more despicable, Russia demonstrates that it can. The British Ministry of Defence has just posted that "in the last seven days, Russia has increased its targeting of civilian infrastructure even where it probably perceived no immediate military effect". Losses on the battlefield -> let's just kill and destroy what we can. The Indian response to Putin's war was somewhat positive, at least. EDIT: a somewhat interesting report on how Russia has been emptying bases around St. Petersburg and taken the equipment toward Ukraine. If Russia seriously feared an attack from NATO, it obviously wouldn't do this, and if NATO seriously wanted to attack, the past months would have been the perfect time. But of course Russia has no fear of NATO outside propaganda, and of course NATO doesn't want to attack. https://yle.fi/news/3-126261824 points

Is that at idle or load? I'm assuming load of some kind. ... yeah, between that and gpu spikings, and TV/monitors, and everything else, definitely 1200-1500w PSU time. Better overkill (again) then sorry.1 point

It's been a few years since I last played Civ4, let's just play a short game on a small map to get back into shape. 15 hours across the weekend later... Yeah, to be fair I did string it out a bit. Standard Monarch game on Continents which is my old level, mowed down my own continent with ease then messed around until the modern era to invade the other continent with combined arms, full carrier groups and amphibious assaults and all that. That's probably why I'll never be an Immortal, let alone Deity level player, playing optimally over the course of a full game is far too mentally taxing and you don't get to mess around with the fun toys. Meanwhile I'm up to the second-last level of Two Point Campus. It's fine, but the feeling I increasingly get with it is that I wish they'd port the various quality-of-life improvements it has back to Hospital. Maybe I should try sandbox mode because it's a very easy game when you're just going through the motions to tick the objective checkboxes.1 point

Fantastic Planet (1973). Most of the posters for this film look something like this: But more importantly right now, I would like to draw everyone's attention to this man in particular: Really, what more needs to be said about this film?1 point

Hello. This is a forum that's mostly run by the community. Developers only chime in occasionally and they don't directly monitor posts or threads unless you tag one directly. Moderating is done by community members as well. So it may be that criticism might not reach the people you intended to reach. Obsidian developed Deadfire for PC only and it was advertised as such prior to release. It runs pretty well there in its current state. Since Obsidian neither planned to develop for consoles nor had much experience with it the publisher "Versus Evil" then took it into their own hands to adapt and release Deadfire for consoles - with a different dev team (that's anonymous to me). That release was done years later than the PC release. So maybe there's still fixing going on (I doubt it though). So, most likely nobody here will be able to help you with those problems unless other PS4-players found a solution for them and either read this or already posted them here. If you want information or help for technical or software related issues for the PS4 version it's maybe best to reach out to Versus Evil via their Deadfire Discord channel. They don't have a forum for such things - as far as I can tell. Also see this thread here, it might be informative:1 point

The lich can't romance*, so that path gets boned in more ways than one. .... .... .... Anyways aktuallllly Aru is best for a Trickster because it forces you to wear a domino mask which means you become Tuxedo Kamen. The silly little cat is best for demon because she worships Lamashtu and demons are most likely into weird sex stuff. *beeg spoilers for lich1 point

I beat Steelrising's second and third (mini?) bosses, the Unstable Lightning Ram: And the Unstable Forger: Both of them were quite easy, the Unstable Lancer was significantly harder than either of his brethren that followed, largely because he was fast. These 2 chumps were slow as molasses. Come to think of it, if the French had spent more time and resources on QA, they could have had stable versions.1 point

@Gromnir The Azata spell you mentioned is really good, except when it kills my own units charmed by Succubi. I’m accumulating lots of crusade units with a low number of soldiers. They are completely useless since the enemy can one shot them and they probably won’t cause much damage. In some battles even the hundreds of archers I have were killed so imagine these poor guys. Imo there should be a higher army size (10 for example) but a limit on the total number of soldiers when adding each unit. And the hospital should recover even units that were completely wiped out. It would also be much more interesting than stacking as much archers as you can. Anyway, at least the Mongrels are now available as mercenaries so they should increase in number quickly and take the place of the Champions. Wenduag0 points

I played Raft with my nephew, and we've just finished the final story island. The game is probably more survival focused when not playing it on the Easy difficulty setting*, because that takes out the punishment of dying, i.e. no inventory is lost upon respawning in the game world. Hunger and thirst are staved off longer, making the exploration of the islands less ardous. Overall, this is an okay survival game, even though the raft design becomes far out there relatively quickly once you start smelting ore in your smelter made of unbaked bricks put on plastic and wood foundations and fired by driftwood. Making fire is never a problem with driftwood pulled directly from the sea and once the smelter is active, a bit of plastic, some scrap and copper ingot will produce circuit boards. I guess whoever the player character is, they're brilliant engineers that would make MacGyver envious. There are story islands that one locates by setting up a triangulation system on your raft and building a radar out of trash and metal ore (which one gathers with a plastic hook, initially). It's just a perfunctory way to progress, although I appreciate having an ultimate goal. The game itself is fun enough in co-op, the aftermath of finishing it wasn't. My nephew was supremely unhappy to find out that there's nothing new to discover now. So, next week, we'll be trying a Team 17 multiplayer mini-golf game. God help me. Maybe I can get him to play Worms with me. *Thank god for the easy setting, really. I don't like open world survival games, like, at all.0 points

Apparently, older builds of Windows 10 don't work for this game; this was kind of the risk I took being on Windows 10 LTSC (specifically LTSC 2019, which is built on 1809 and cannot change). I'd have to reformat or try to do an upgrade with LTSC 2021 in order to try it, which...seems less than optimal to me at this time.0 points
