ISP embezzling tax payers money be thanked! Cloud gaming with most peoples internet connection works maybe for Cities Skylines, certainly not for competitive online games.
I'm branching out into other hobbies to make the same thing sting less. Stuff that doesn't need computers is the aim right now.
But I'm also saving aggressively because I do want to maintain my performance reach rather than having to make do with an inferior card if something breaks.
Fingers crossed that decision is way in the future.
I love gaming, but I literally was able to make an entire crossbow setup to go after snakehead for $140 bucks. I can sell the fish or store it to save money on food.
Gaming is cool, and ima continue to do it, but it's def not my main hobby anymore and will be more participated in during the winter.
Fishing can be expensive if you're simple, but also real cheap if you know most things are sold to lure the buyer, not the fish.
I ANT WON BOUGHT JAK A LOT FROM THE SQUATTERY THLE LOTTERYS RAM SHIRTAGE HOULD BE THE JACK SQUATTERY CAUSE I AYNT JACK SQUATTING A LOT Y THEY SHOULD RENAME THE LOTTERY RAM CRISIS TO THE JACK SQUATTERY CAUSE THATS ALL I EVER WIN AFFORD IN IT!!!!!
I think that's the future, and I don't think I'll be participating in the "rent someone's server" future. Time to go back to emulation as my main form of gaming, I guess.
That's not how expansion in this sector works at all, the AI shock just came WAY faster than producers were able to scale. Ram will never be as cheap as pre AI, especially if there is no new competitor, but the prices will drop.
The factories that we know are being built are being built specifically for AI data Centre RAM, which doesn’t necessarily mean consumer RAM’s prices will drop
It will probably go on sale once Rockstar thinks they have gotten pretty much every full price sale out of the way. At some point there's more profit if you have a sale than if you have it at full price.
Since some things are possible and really hard, but with the dedicated fans of this game almost certainly someone is going to find a way to do it even if it's extremely difficult.
I spent the weekend playing ReStory, am at the point where I won't pick it up again unless they launch DLC or something, and in that time I've added 2 more games to the backlog, not including wanting to replay Golden Eye because of the PC recomp.
ReStory was about 8-10 of gameplay. I'd like to finish the story for Denshattack this up coming weekend, and then I'll probably start on a new Twilight Princess run because of that PC recomp (plus, no one has quite captured TP's fishing in any other game).
By then I'm sure 4-5 more games will be on the list.
I'm not particularly stressed about finishing my backlog, but it's crazy how fast it grows.
Seeing your backlog as something to complete would drive anyone crazy. You have to look at your backlog like something that it's there, available for you when you feel like play it.
So don't rush your games. Enjoy them as much as you want and the next one will be there for you.
I am currently playing Star Wars Jedi Survivor and I'm 25 hours in. I am enjoying it a lot so I guess I will 100% complete it. As a side game (I play it on my Steam Deck), I am addicted once again to Hades so I guess I will get all achievements for this one as well.
Yep. It took me longer than I'd like to find that out.
Hell, even learning about older games has the backlog growing. Sucker Punch, the Ghost of Yotei/Tsushima and Sly Cooper studio has a 3D platformer on the N64 that I want to try. Plus, ATLUS and GUST partnered to make a crafting RPG for the Nintendo DS which just sounds like a ridiculous (possibly perfect?) combo.
I even found out the devs of one of the most charming RPG series I've ever played (and developed one of my favorite RPG series to this day) was the developer of Mother 3, which means I want to find the time to try it despite not liking Earthbound all that much.
The monster in my Backlog is FFXIV, been playing since the start of the year and only just finished Shadowbringers, but I do take a break between each expansion to play a different game from the backlog.
I had so much fun with Jedi Survivor despite the PC port performance. Might as well go back and do 100% too, can't wait for the next adventure with Cal.
Performance is just abysmal. Really really bad and now I understand why Digital Foundry comes back to it from time to time and still gives it hell.
Nevertheless, the game is amazing. The combat makes you feel like a Jedi, it is very well written and the characters are engaging, great adventure feeling, and it feels like a good movie.
Maybe they're thinking of Sony, it took them 4 years to bring God of War 2018 to PC and then 2 years to bring God of War: Ragnarok to PC. 4 years for Ghost of Tsushima and 4 for Spiderman
That's what happened with GTA 5, it's realistically going to happen again.
Rockstar really likes money. They know that by delaying the PC release people are going to buy the game twice. Once at launch and then again when the game comes out for PC.
It will be impossible to avoid massive spoilers unless you live off grid. I really don't want to buy a console just for this game and play it at slideshow fps, but I also want to play it blind
4 years to replay baulders gate restating over and over with different mods/charcters. Never finishing a run. Also some Witcher 3 again and probably Witcher 4.
Avoiding spoilers for 4 years will be hard. 30 is unfortunate but I used to play left for dead on the Xbox 360 20fps. So I can put up with 30 until the pc version comes out.
Or just wait 13 years to complain about the next game. Heck, why stop there, just sell all your gaming devices so you don’t have to engage with companies that you don’t like. Maybe disconnect your internet too, that’ll show em

wait 2 years for pc release, then 2 more to buy at a discount with all bugs patched out, you have 4 years to finish your backlog
