  1. Closest estimate I could find. On Youtube, you always find people uploading stuff, I typed "Avowed + i7 8750H". Both of your parts are newer and a tad better. By the way, some devs may consider renaming "low" settings to "efficient". Back on Crysis, picking low was an off-button for shadows, lighting, geometry detail, whatever you picked. Devs in general got a lot better with scaling, so that even on lower settings, the desired image is usually still there. Plus: Digital Foundry often run the comparisons. Sometimes, a medium setting is above console image quality, sometimes below. And occasionally, like in Indiana Jones, the RT lighting on Series X is more simple than on PC even when the setting is put to "low". The only setting on low that would annoy me here on Avowed would be the flickering shadows. But putting them to medium, even high, barely costs performance (see optimization guide). I'm glad that in the past ~15 years, I was mostly using lower end-ish hardware (CRPGs et all rarely release as blockbuster games). Even when I upgraded to the 1050 Ti for Dishonored 2, it immediately tanked to sub 40 fps in the most demanding scenes on med settings (Machine House Entry, A Crack In The Slab with its time travel and multiple levels being rendered simultaneously). Actually, I'm currently trying an FPS lock in the driver settings to check how low I could go and still find fun. Why? I want to keep the 3060 and build a new machine only once the PS6 and its specs are out -- the PS6 is gonna be the base platform for AAAA games until at least the mid 2030s. Plus, 60 to 40 fps is a difference of 50% in extra performance needed for instance -- and that's way more than a generational upgrade brings today. Your 3070 was released in 2020. It's taken half a decade for the **60/Ti series to get (slightly) ahead. By the way, 5060Ti/9060XT levels of performance are what's roughly build inside the PS5 Pro. Base PS5 experience is closer to a ~RX 6700 (non-XT). And Monster Hunter Wilds ain't that stable even on consoles as well. Seems like Resident Evil's RE Engine was never built with vast open spaces in mind, and brute forcing it is rather not ideal (see also Dragon's Dogma 2). All Resident Evil games since 7 themselves have been rather very light on the hardware...

  3. Non-GPU griping news: You can apparently now build an entire ship in No Man's Sky, walk around in it, use it as a mini-flying base (I guess?), and leap into space out of it. I've downloaded the update but haven't turned it on yet. If one can build a decent mini-base sized ship that doesn't fly/handle/land like the Titanic, it'd be my dream. No need for a freighter then. It'd be nice if they put the build-station in Abandoned Mode too, but probably not. Hasn't happened yet, but by the time Light No Fire releases, NMS may/is gonna need a new PC to run it well/max. It's not really that deep a dive but if one wants to hear him talk about it a little.

  4. When trying out the Acorn Turret for the first time, I've found that the look directions can't be inverted. I play with look inverted on the Y axis, and it's difficult to control the turret when the look controls are backwards from what they normally are.

  5. Since you already have a paladin in your party I would go with a trickster/soul blade instead. WotEP does great damage with SA against multiple targets and vs single enemies you can switch to Sun and Moon + Tuotilo's Palm/Best Defense for great dps because you can spam SA.

  7. It's shocking that a guy that lives in a literal gold tower doesn't care about poor people. Who could have predicted such a thing?

  8. I'm more concerned about Trump trying to end cashless bail than the flag stuff, which, really doesn't matter at all, and has no impact on anyone's life. That said, I have no faith that the Supreme Court won't bend to Trump on this, but it should still pretty unlikely since it's been ruled to be protected free speech. If you can't afford bail you can sit behind bars for weeks, months, or even over a year while waiting for trial just because you're poor. These aren't people who the judge has denied bail because of the seriousness of the crime or their criminal history, but rather people who have been granted bail and just can't afford it.

  9. Really appreciate the regular updates - I'll base my NV driver update strategy on your go/no-go verdict. If you don't come post a follow-up "hey, it's still borked", I will update to latest NV GR driver in a day or two.

  10. The Ali G interview with Trump has become one of my favourites, this was way back in 2003 and before Trump got involved in politics Its classic Cohen parody and its why he is my funniest actor, Its even funnier because we know how Trump acts and thinks now and you can see how annoyed Trump gets

  11. Almost unplayable. Single player and multi player. Sometimes it crashes and dashboards me when I go to start a new game or load a save file. Most of the time, I'm able to start or load a game but a few mins in and my entire Xbox just shuts off...

  12. Bonjour, - J'ai de gros soucis quand je chevauche une monture, j'ai des gros freeze, m'obligeant a quitter le jeux et le relancer. D'autres fois, le jeux crash tous seul sans raison apparente, surtout lorsque je suis avec mon buggy. Je joue en multi cross-plateforme, sur un salon créé par un jeux venant d'une version PC Xbox Game Pass. - J'ai également des soucis de quêtes principales, à savoir les O.R.C, surtout les abeilles, vers les myrtilles qui n'apparaissent plus, alors que je ne les ai pas tuées. J'ai du refaire une partie complète. - J'ai aussi un soucis de sac a dos qui tombe en dessous de la map lorsque je meurs sur un mob. Il disparait et il est impossible de le récupérer, pourtant l'HUD me le montre quand même.

  13. Elephantasy turned out to not support the Steam Overlay and I noticed it too late, so there are very few screenshots for such an artistic game.
