It’s pretty confusing

“UHD features a 16:9 aspect ratio and is twice the resolution of full HD. In other words, two times 1080p, two times 1920 x 1080 pixels, that is 3840 x 2160 pixels. Having the same 16:9 aspect ratio means it is backward compatible with other HD derivates. However, both 4K and UHD can be shortened to 2160p to match the HD standard and therefore, companies use the terms interchangeably.”

“If you think 4K and UHD are one and the same, I don’t blame you. I blame the companies that LOVE to use them interchangeably all the time. You pick up a Blu-Ray movie disc of a 4K movie and you will most definitely see an Ultra HD label on it. 4K is actually not a consumer display and broadcast standard but UHD is. 4K displays are used in professional production and digital cinemas and feature 4096 x 2160 pixels”


This was really weird to read. Self harm like this is normally associated with pretty severe mental illness.

Like what did she think they were going to do if she called in sick? Beat her up? Definitely a strange part of the story.

She probably should have kept that part to herself


Capitalism works. There are markets who will pay for these and that’s why they are made. That’s what capitalism is.

If not for capitalism, these games wouldn’t even exist.

Now, the issue I think you’re worried about is that people begrudgingly pay for the game when they don’t really want to. Or pay more than they want to for it.

That’s not capitalism, that’s FOMO.

People make a ton of shit everyday that I don’t buy. But obviously someone is out there paying for this shit, or it wouldn’t be being made.

What do I care, or what do you care about it enough to even address?

If people don’t buy it, it either gets cheaper or it’s not made at all. So just don’t buy it. I haven’t bought a sports game in 20 years because of this. But they keep making them and people keep complaining about them.

Complain about yourselves, it’s not capitalism, it’s the consumers.


This doesn’t seem like something you want to meta game

Maybe on you’re 3rd or 4th play through? But not at launch. This is a legit RPG





I don’t see why there is such a backlash on shorter games.

Personally I would love a dense 25-ish hour game experience



YouTube, mostly

Various channels and whatever the algorithm feeds me


I always build a new PC whnen there is a new Diablo game



It’s just for streaming games? That sounds uninspiring


I tend to build a new PC every time a new Diablo game drops


Dragon quest xi is perfect for the steam deck
