Yup, reasonable points.

But, it is 3 clicks for now, but it might not even be an option later on. Yea yea, doomer and tinfoilhats. :)

the ads in a paid os shouldn’t be a thing to begin with.

while true, but you can’t buy UT or Unreal from gog anymore, the games were delisted ages ago.

You can still download them from your collection if you own them, but new purchases are not possible.

gamers nexus - basically anything they review gets dissected to absurd detail.

But in general I still prefer to crossreference multiple sources if I’m thinking of getting [whateverthething]

all of those look like they’re made with heroforge https://www.heroforge.com/ - or similar.

At least with heroforge you actually get a physical miniature

(edit: to be clear: no nft’s at heroforge, they just print miniatures, which you build/design with their site. that’s all)

Similar thoughts here. I was playing it on fairly high end pc as well from day 1 (wasn’t really patient with it… yea…) - Sure there were some funky glitches (eg. occasionally T-posing nude on bikes) here and there, but nothing game breaking. But that’s not to say those things didn’t happen to others, but I’ve understood the game was an absolute shitshow on ps4.

it’s a pretty cool “wallpaper generator” or animated video insert for whatever video project you might have. Pretty, no actual gameplay, but neat toy software.

I do use blender quite a bit, but haven’t really used much of the video editor. Last time I tried it CTD’d contantly. If it has gotten stable, reasonable audio tools and gpu accelerated video output, it might be a contender.

thank you for the tip, will check it out.

Essentially what I need is 3+ audiotracks, compressors for each and master. Then annotate with images/text whatever video there is. And yes it’s gameplay videos mostly.

lossless cut not really a concern, but I’d like to have the end result rendered out fast, so nvenc (current hardware) or so would be grand.

But, will expirement!

Most of my stuff works on Linux now, so, yay. Currently only thing holding me back from doing a full switch is essentially video editing.

My current go-to video editor is Vegas Pro, and it just works like an extension of me, for me. I’ve tried few editors on linux (kdenlive, davinci) but they’re either very limited/odd/user-error-id10t or just doesn’t support video formats I need (davinci, free version doesn’t support h264 or hevc, and not feeling like shelling north of 300 USD for it). Next up on my testing plate is Shotcut, but haven’t gotten around to it yet.

I dunno, probably not worth it for someone who has it on consoles, but as someone with no consoles newer than gamecube, I’ll wait for a discount.

Curse is pretty great, imo. The higher resolution cartoon style doesn’t feel as “vintage” as the first two games.

But, how do you want to fight, insult lemmy-commenting? You comment like a cow! /s

Atlantis would have made a pretty good movie too, imo.

I’ve only seen movies up to Crystal Skull, and… I dunno, not up to par with the 3 first ones. No idea what has happened since.

unless the new game is any good.

so far I’ve only heard that it’s closer to “immersive sims” with stealth gameplay than what machinegames generally does. While I do like me some sneaky-stealth games, they tend to devolve into quicksave/quickload very quickly. Who knows, but I’m waiting for some less edited letsplay footage and sales if it seems like I’d like it.

Point & click adventures of olden times. Day of the Tentacle, Monkey Islands 1 & 2 got remasters, hell, Monkey island got even a NEW game.

I’d insta-buy on Indiana Jones & Fate of Atlantis -remaster.

…But, tbh, still rather have a new game in same style.

appreciated!

welp, here’s waiting for a discount, maybe xmas sales will provide.

Thanks for the insight!

Not really a fan of GTA games, so… dunno if RDR is my kinda game to begin with. I do find westerns interesting at least.

I’ve played the original 2 GTA games way back when, didn’t much care for the arcade chaos. 3 and Vice city were so-so, and… GTA4…

GTA4 felt like bowling with cousin Roman more than a GTA game

Ended up quitting GTA4 during tutorialization :D

It had me going to some inane date with some lady, when I was driving her home I apparently goofed, bumped something with my car and long story short: I died by police gunfire in a minigolf track’s pond. Then game said I had to go do the date again. NOPE.

I’ve only played a little RDR2 - which I felt was a bit too much “life sim” nonsense with all kinds of minigames (fishing, hunting, dating?, whatever) and bit heavy on lengthy cutscenes, and I’ve heard that RDR1 is bit more straight forward and “game-y” - Anyone care to chime in if this is true?

If it is bit more straightforward I might be interested in this - after a hefty discount.

not much of a pvp player, but if this allows for private/friends only lobbies, this might be something for my gaming group

while davinci resolve is probably pretty top shelf as editor, just be mindful of limitations, namely: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DaVinci_Resolve#MP4,_H.264,_H.265_and_AAC_Support

DaVinci Resolve free does not support decoding or encoding H.264 and H.265 video, regardless of the container type.

Neither DaVinci Resolve free or Studio versions support decoding or encoding of AAC audio streams.

Unless you feel like buying the studio version, you can’t really use h264/h265 video codecs. For me this is pretty much a dealbreaker as I don’t have hardware which could encode eg. AV1 video reasonably - and I really don’t want to transcode recordings to different formats for editing.
