Oh great, so now even IF the Sims 5 comes out, I have a moral obligation not to buy it…

If that actually happens and the label becomes redundant, then we can talk about removing it.

Or better, inverting it to a “No AI” label for the people like me who will still care.

Tech bros always act like this : they don’t want to actually win by making a good solution. Instead they try to make you feel like their solution is inevitable and they have already won…

For a group of people who claim to be all about meritocracy and the “marketplace of ideas”, they sure like to short circuit those whenever possible…

Ray Tracing is still not good enough and needs “de-noising” which basically just blurs the image.

DLSS is also absolutely horrible for blur. I would rather have a clear pixelated image than an upscaled mess. (And AMD superFX is barely any better)

A combined off switch for TAA, Ray Tracing, DLSS, frame generation, and all of that nonsense.

I hate that games now turn to soup when in motion, even with motion blur off.

If only

Games you can’t pause. I love Dark Souls, but PLEASE give me a real pause button !

I’m okay with the inventory not pausing, that’s part of the game design. I’m not okay with the fact I can’t pause at all, so if my neighbour rings for their spare key when I’m fighting Kalameet I just have to die 🤷🏻‍♀ (true story btw)

Every game has controller remapping with Steam ! But the on-screen hints might get mighty confusing 😅

As someone who works in assembler a lot, RISC-V is probably my favorite.

If anyone knows a useful open source project where people like me can contribute to this future happening, please do respond to this comment !

Not without a camera it can’t

Real glad I can soon ditch the DualSense Edge and its only half-functional gimmicks !

I will miss the adjustable triggers, but I will NOT miss the randomly incorrect button mappings, and “extra buttons” that get fucked up if you ever connect it to an actual PS5

So you could sell it now !

Yes but which index ? The headset alone is 540€, but the full VR Kit is 1080€

Dont get me wrong, I’m still going TK buy it if it costs 1080€, but I will be annoyed, and very sad for all the kids who will still have to sell their soul to Meta for a while…

I really hope it’s ~500€

If Valve went DRM free like GOG, I would have no reason to ever buy games anywhere else

(apart from exclusives, which should be illegal IMO)

That is a bit of a shame, I was excited to see the Steam Frame controllers simply use AA batteries.

I wish more things used those, or maybe some new standard with more energy density. Swapping batteries immediately is one thing I miss from the Wii days…

That is nice, but Hades II is hardly my idea of a hard benchmark to clear. Looks like a fun game, though !

As homophobic as this indeed is, it’s also from 2011. As a pansexual trans woman, I’m pretty sure I might have sais some very transphobic/homophobic stuff in 2011 as well, thankfully I was not posting it online.

I’ll give him the benefit of the doubt, but I respect that you may not be inclined to do that. I have possibly too much faith in humanity.

But also, let me say this : acting on your homosexual tendencies is pretty damn righteous 😎

Be prepared for Square Enix games to fail even EA’s QA standards in the near future 😅

Just looked it up, really disappointed it doesn’t do the 3D part. (yes, I’m part of the few people who always had it on and set to max depth)

I cannot describe how disappointed I was in the switch when it came out, and the situation isn’t much better now. It took one huge step forwards, yes, bus also ditched a ton of really good features :

• No cameras !?
• No microphone !?
• No analog triggers
• No 3D display
• No stylus support
• No Streetpass
• No personality (fun apps, menu music, themes…)

Even the Motion controls, which are still a thing, do not feature any IR reference point, making the Wii still the best implementation of motion aim outside of VR.

The games are great, but these days I personally play the Wii U and 3DS more often, because unlike the switch these platforms still offer some experiences that are just not possible elsewhere.

In fact, the Wii U and 3DS are currently the only consoles I would recommend actually possessing physically. Wii U emulation is really annoying (though Steam Deck can get there, with a cable in the way), and good luck finding anything for the 3DS that does the 3D part any better than a New 3DS XL.

I would have thought that, as I have played closer to 8 hours, and I am bored with it 😂 glad it’s still fun for you though 😊

In my personal experience, the only games that don’t work are those that explicitly choose not to :

• Fortnite
• PUBG
• Roblox
• Valorant

I’m not much into competitive games myself, so the only one that’s inconvenient in this list to me is Roblox. There are a few really fun games on their platform that I wish I could play on Steam Deck, as used to be possible.
