Like the texts in the tabletop Warhammer 1st edition campaign. Only one character in the party can read because of literacy in that universe and era. I understand why.

In my experience, AMD is not more reliable on updates. I had to clean install trice to be able to have my RX 6600 function properly and months later, I have a freezing issue that may be caused by my GPU.

I'm surprised by the impact Monahan has. He wins most face-offs and he's a good playmaker. Gallagher and Pearson seem less washed with him.

Do you have an exemple of a turn-based game that lacks strategy? The closest that I can think of are the JRPGs, but even them have a bit of strategy IMHO. All turn-based games are strategy games in my opinion.

I wonder if there is the same problem for the tabletop RPG or they made an unfortunate adjustment compared to it.

I have two campaigns at the same time, one solo, one with a friend. I am amazed how different the campaigns are. Moreover, by discussing with my other friends that play the game, I could play two or three more campaigns and there will be significant differences between the four of them. Per exemple, I have not played dark urge, broken oath paladin, no evil run (I have one but I wasn't evil enough). The replayability is surprisingly good.

I have not finished the game. I'm in Act 3 in one of the campaigns. One thing that help make the campaigns differents is to do the quests in different orders. It lead to unexpected changes.

I do a coop campaign at the same time as my solo campaign and my friend did the same. It's awesome how we figured out things together, especially in the temple of Shar. It's also fun to discuss solo campaigns with other people because how it is different even if it's the same game. My most obvious example in that case is what happens with auntie Ethel, as we discussed several minutes about it because of 4 different outcomes in 4 campaigns.

I'm a fan since his Starcrafts series. He's so clever the way he finds the absurb gameplay mechanics and makes parodies out of it. I guess that if he makes a 2nd episode, it would be on compaignons dying pushed off a cliff, but we somehow be able to take their inventory or ressurect them.

That's why people vote for Trump and that's why Bernie Sanders came close to win the primaries. People don't want the status quo suggested by the establishment of both parties.

I see "#### New" instead of "New" in bold characters in the previews before I click on the post. The text accompanying the title is not formatted, it's the raw markdown input.

It's out of sync and I don't know how to scroll manually when it happens.

This video (https://youtu.be/4_WIhy4jbr8?si=m9TlvuLm0uyyIwmF) shows how silly it is that these games are so demanding. We should be close to complete the transition to 1440p or 4k gaming, but some of the new games ask too much to play at higher resolution than 1080p.

Also, the most recent API, DX12 and Vulkan don't necessarily improve performance vs DX11 and Unreal Engine 5 seems demanding to run (https://youtu.be/mtsxlKPMthI?si=lUVVDyZs_iG_8_z3).

 

Unfortunately, the prime minister won't endorse his minister.

 

In previews, we see the markdown raw text instead of the expected formatted output.
