How is the Oblivion remaster AI generated?

I have an LG 38GN950-B, 1600p Ultrawide, IPS, 144Hz, and really like it.

For productivity, I think Ultrawide is great. WFH on this is really nice.

For gaming, it’s kinda hit-and-miss. Many games just don’t support UW, so you’re stuck with black bars or have to mess around with mods, fixes or tools. While not a dealbreaker, when I upgrade in a couple of years, I’ll probably just go back to 16:9, because of that.

IPS glow is there, but not really noticeable. I’m usually in a well-lit room, so that cancels out any glow I could notice out anyway, so it doesn’t really matter.

I finished DOOM (2016) and DOOM Eternal. Eternal is definitely the better of the two for me, maybe even my favorite in the whole series.

Eternal’s campaign was pretty easy this time, since I actually used all of the tools the game gives you. Some of the Master Levels were harder though, especially Taras Nabad. Two fights in that level took me an hour each on Ultra-Violence.

Now I’ll play the DLC for the first time.

I just re-played both games in anticipation for Dark Ages.

Doom 2016 only has pickups and chainsaw kill, with limited fuel, to get ammo. There’s also a rune for “infinite ammo,” and also the Pistol, with infinite ammo.

Eternal is the same, just that the Chainsaw always refills one charge (and no unlimited ammo rune). That’s why you get like half (or less) max ammo in the Eternal, compared to 2016, because you’re supposed to chainsaw a demon every 30s or something. Also, probably no Pistol because of that.

The straight-up melee does some damage in 2016, like the old games. You could theoretically punch everything to death.

In Eternal, I think it deals no damage at all, and it’s just there for the Glory Kill, but you get a special punch for a big damage AoE melee attack.

Glory Kills (melee finishers/execute) on low health demons are the same in both games, there to look cool and give you health.

BTW, I’m not saying you’re wrong for liking Doom 2016 more than Eternal. Some people don’t want to do the whole song and dance of jumping, dashing, swing bars, quick switch weapons, flamethrower, grenade, grapple, punch, chainsaw, whatever. I like it a lot, and it makes the game a lot more fun for me, compared to the more simple Doom 2016.

How is Doom 2016 better in that regard? Just because the options aren’t there?

You can also still play Doom Eternal like the 2016 version. It’s gonna be harder, but I basically did in my first playthrough.

Some time ago the internal tools to build levels and campaigns “leaked,” so people are working on that, but right now it’s mostly textures, cheats, items, changing numbers etc.

Because you’re Nintendo.

It would be funny if the reason Nintendo went after the Switch emulators because Switch 2 is the same, and you get playable games in days.

Still trying Baldur’s Gate 3 solo Honor Mode. I’ve died a lot, to all kind of different enemies. Currently, I got a good run going, made it to level 6, still Act 1, but almost done. Hopefully I don’t turn off my brain again in a crucial moment and just eat dirt.

What is it exactly, that people want from the sequel?

Bigger skill tree, so you can make even more fun of D4.

You can now (on June 5th) very easily play most PC games on the Switch 2.

I mean, other consoles support proper KB+M, but it’s not like Paradox is rushing to get their games released on Playstation. Why would the Switch be different, with a worse mouse and no keyboard?

In justifying the $450 price of the Switch 2, Nintendo executives predictably pointed to the system’s upgraded hardware specs, as well as new features like GameChat and mouse mode.

GameChat is truly a revolution. We haven’t used voice chat for games for like 25 years, definitely not.

Nobody asked for the mouse mode, it will probably be used by two games, made by Nintendo themselves, then just be forgotten.

Trying a solo Honor Mode run in Baldur’s Gate 3. Playing a Gloomstalker Assassin, which should avoid getting into combat a lot, and just snipe from max range, if you play it right. If I die, I’ll probably still continue the run. I’ve done the beginning too many times earlier this year.

Used it, it was probably the best, but still bad. If not for work, it would have been good enough though.

Most of the RDP implementations are also just based on FreeRDP, so they’re basically the same. I had terrible picture quality on all of them, even over local network, and the USB passthrough barely worked.

Tbh since I need the system for work, I wasn’t able to test stuff super long. Maybe I should install Linux on a secondary system, so I can just play around and try stuff.

I’ve been on Windows 11 since it was released. The only problem I had were NVIDIA drivers sometimes causing a bluescreen (mainly my fault).

Linux doesn’t work for me currently, since I use RDP to connect to systems for work, and RDP clients on Linux are ass.

Yeah, it would be insane if the game’s also uninstalled, but that second system still needs to be at hand or someone needs to “eject” it. It’s a really dumb system.

I think the only thing that’s worse with the new Steam system is that everyone has to be in the same country.

If we still need to buy one copy of a gamer per simultaneous player,.then the rest of the differences are just ceremony.

Like I said, to me, the differences are not as cut and dry, it depends on you situation.

As for the virtual game card, Nintendo actually uses eject, load, and borrow in their article, so it sounds to me it’s basically like a physical game you have to move between consoles, not just simple check.

I think you can argue if Steam does the whole sharing thing better than Sony or Microsoft. On Playstation and Xbox you can just by one copy of a game, but play it simultaniously with someone else, but it seems like that’s limited to one other console (setting the home console).

On Steam you need one copy for every accout playing the game, but you can have 6 accounts in your family, and unlimited devices. Without family share, your own account can only play on one device at a time, but then, why not just make a new Steam account and join a family.

The virtual game cards from Nintendo are also like Steam, since they need one game copy for each player, but also only on one device.

Seems to me like Nintendo is not as good as the others, when it comes to sharing digital games. Sharing physical is of course still possible and easy on console.
