I kind of just want to go into hibernation for 5 years.

And then run all the AIs!

Cyberpowerpc has started assembling my PC apparently, so they might actually make good on their estimated October 12 shipping date! In which case my unconventional approach may have paid off!

Not very encouraging, but reading it, it honestly feels like this person doesn't understand how to play D&D 5e or why the ruleset works the way that it does. That might be a problem for the general public too. But being as I've been playing D&D 5e remotely with friends since the pandemic started, I'm not worried about the combat. Worst thing in the description is they may not have balanced the party and encounters well, but that's precisely why this is in early access.

This predictable false narrative about the severity of covid is exactly why the best outcome if he got it would be for him to die from it.

Pretty much where I still am too! Bring on season 2... I think!

I'm honestly impressed by the mind warping recursive structure of this single sentence: "It came off that we were trying to hide something, which wasn’t necessarily true."

I'm glad they're focusing on the controls; that was easily the biggest issue I had with LBP.

I get that, and I've even actually argued with @Greatoneshere about the fact that I actually do see merits in console-only gaming even though I prefer PC gaming myself. But none of us who responded to this meme said that. If we're just going to assume everyone is the same person our conversations here are going to be pretty tedious and we're a small enough community who have known each other long enough that I wouldn't think we'd have to do that.

Not sure I understand the "actually." I was indeed also saying that the meme was about Xbox, and not MS. And that's also why my first response was that if you're not a PC gamer, there's a lot of exclusives on Xbox You were wrong, but I'm still down for the I appreciate that, thanks

I'm sorry I couldn't hear you over how wrong you were. But seriously, you're being far too defensive and looking for malicious intent where there was none. I'm not knocking MS at all. If you want to construe my original comment on either "side," it was in MS's favor.

The meme literally says "Xbox players," chief. I'll quote it for you below so you can see.

I don't think anyone who commented on this was insinuating that if you have PC and and choose to game on Xbox more often that you're lesser. These were just statements that it's a factor. A bit one for many people, and maybe unimportant for others. That's fine, everyone has different weightings and circumstances. How much you game on PC, how powerful your PC is, what your budget is, whether you have kids, what your room organization is, and many more things are all factors. What games you can only play on a specific piece of hardware is also one of those factors that will affect people's decisions and is therefore worth raising.

I'm not sure I understand the relevance of that to what I said. If a person is deciding whether to buy an Xbox, they will care. I'm not arguing what matters to MS as a business. And I'm not knocking MS for this path either. On the contrary: I *love* that they're treating the PC as a first class citizen! But that doesn't change the fact that for people wondering whether they should get an Xbox, whether they game on PC matters.

That's right, but if the question is "should I get an Xbox" the calculus is affected by whether you game on PC.

If you're a PC gamer, not really. If you're a console gamer owner, a lot. I mean, they just bought Bethesda...

Man, they're cutting that real close to the release of Cyberpunk!

Every awards show is marketing though Also, I like game trailers anyway

I think that fact that I'm still coming back to watch it indicates that this is a "good" show. But beyond whether it's "good," I'm still not sure if I like it

I'm not sure if this thought is pessimistic about the release time of the 3080, or optimistic about an eventual full release of Star Citizen.

Lower your expectations of what "recommended" affords

Cyberpowerpc. My local workstation (for, well, work) is also a Cyberpowerpc which is why I have some trust with them. They're pretty well priced too.

They're telling me Oct 12. I'm not sure I believe it though. This will be a grand experiment. If it bears fruit, future generations of D1P may also use this economical strategy of upgrading their entire computer when they want a new hard-to-get video card!

Exactly! I don't need the PC today, but there will be hell to pay if they delay me past November 19th!
