The story is amazing and the voice acting etc is great. The combat gets pretty repetitive especially toward the end and the enemies are total bullet sponges, so I highly recommend playing on normal difficulty but just turning down enemy health (or turning up your damage I can’t remember which it is but same difference). Made the game so much more fun for me. Beaten it I think 3 times now because I love the story and the game isn’t too long, maybe 15-20 hours?

The article is about insider builds aka betas. Yes betas have bugs lol

Except the fact that Steam removed their 2 hour refund rule on this game and everyone who bought it is apparently getting a refund (people even getting refunds without asking for them).

Honestly I have no idea why anyone besides maybe content creators would use this mod…hmm I think I just answered my own question it’s probably mostly streamers and YouTubers and a few people with morbid curiosity haha

EDIT: I just re-read your comment and realized you were asking specifically about Intel Arc cards. Sorry I don’t have any experience with them. I’ll leave this comment here though in case it’s useful in some way.

Everyone seems to always recommend AMD cards for Linux but at least in my experience I’ve had no issues with Nvidia cards. I have a 1070 in my home Proxmox server passed through to a Debian transcoding for Plex and Jellyfin, and in my gaming machine I dual boot Debian and my 4090 works just fine so far (including HDMI sound). I just installed the latest drivers on both machines and they “just worked”.

I don’t personally have any issues with using proprietary drivers, but I understand why people prefer AMD for the open source drivers if that’s important to them. I just wanted to chime in with my experience because a lot of people will outright dismiss Nvidia cards for Linux saying they don’t work well, regardless of the politics of the drivers. At least for me they work fine.

Thanks!! I’ll give this a try

That sounds awesome! Do you know where I can find the mod? I’m still pretty new to PC gaming and haven’t done much with mods yet in any game.

Fantastic game! Played it on gamepass and recently bought it on Steam so I can play on PC with a PS5 controller for better haptics (and also play on Steam Deck). Highly recommended!

Way further back than MP3’s even. The music industry had a whole ad campaign about how cassette tapes were going to kill music when they came out lol. Then they freaked out again with DAT tapes and then CD-Rs. Amazing how there’s still new music today…more than ever in fact.

WeRE thE MoOn LaNDinGs BoRInG??? 😂😂

I lost it when they made that comparison. Also, ya know they actually had a rover to drive around on the moon haha

I feel like that’s not even procedural generation at that point it’s just copy and pasting with a fancy name… by definition procedural generation should, you know, generate new stuff not just reuse the same couple things haha

Have you seen the replies they’re posting to Steam reviews? Fucking hilarious(ly sad) LOL

Exactly haha, we were joking about this exactly thing at work when all the hype started (I’m a software engineer). We were like, “to make a whole app you’ll have to tell an AI super specifically every little behavior you want the app to do. Do you know what telling a computer very specifically what you want it to do is called? Programming.” lol

I’m excited about the potential for LLMs as coding tools (and I already use them to help with various programming related things), but I’m not worried about my job being replaced any time soon.
