General Gaming Balatro is fantastic, update: 1 million copies sold
AbsolutSurgen replied to Biggie's topic in The Spawn Point
Yeah, in order to get crazy high scores, you need at least one joker that gets you extra chips, one that gets +Mult and one that gives you xMult. Remember to put the jokers that give you xMult to the right of the ones that give you +Mult. I haven't been spending any time on endless runs, but more on unlocking/beating all the decks in the base difficulty. TBH, I've only played for about an hour in the last week. -
I don't think AMD FSR is good enough at lower resolutions to compete with DLSS. If AMD/Sony can create something that truly competes with DLSS, that is ideal. IMHO, Nvidia has proven that a combination of their Nvidia Reflex and DLSS frame generation are enough. I said 90, because I am not convinced that reflex/frame generation at a 60fps output is good enough. At 90fps, based on my experience with it, it is great.

And, Russell Wilson is 35 -- he is a short term gamble for the Steelers. If they can turn around Fields, he could be with them for years.

You've got 2 QBs in training camp with little/no cap impact if you cut one of them.

General Gaming What are you playing today?
AbsolutSurgen replied to CastlevaniaNut18's topic in The Spawn Point
Just finished up the DLC for Gears 5 -- just as solid as the main game. I think I'll try and play a little Spider-Man on my Deck while I wait for Forbidden West to come out on Thursday. -

Steelers? Edit: Reporting it is for a conditional 6th rounder. A few months ago, mock trades were being done for a 2nd.

PC “You a—holes”: Court docs reveal Tim Epic's anger at Steam’s 30% fees
AbsolutSurgen replied to Jason's topic in The Spawn Point
I just looked at concurrent users in games. Steam ~8M, Roblox ~7M. -
PC “You a—holes”: Court docs reveal Tim Epic's anger at Steam’s 30% fees
AbsolutSurgen replied to Jason's topic in The Spawn Point
Ubisoft doesn't launch their games on Steam -- there is an exclusivity period on EGS. here are still lots of big "blackhole" games not on Steam. Roblox and Fortnight that pop into my head. There are tons of games on Roblox that do exceedingly well as FTP. They don't get much attention here, but their concurrent player counts are exceptionally high. As I type this Brookhaven (683k) and Blox Fruits (513k) would be the #2 and #3 games ranked on concurrent users if they were on Steam. My point is the present situation is good for gamers. -

AbsolutSurgen replied to Jason's topic in The Spawn Point
Valve does not have a monopoly, I probably buy ~20% of my PC games through the Valve storefront. Games are normally available cheaper elsewhere. There are tons of places that people purchase their games -- EGS, Origin, Ubisoft, Roblox, Battle.net, GoG, key resellers (CDKeys, Fanatical, GMG), itch.io, Amazon, even the MS/Xbox storefront. In the end, PC games used to be cheaper than console games because the cost of distribution was lower for the game makers -- and they would pass this along to the customer. I don't believe that if Valve reduced their commission to 20%, that developers would lower the price on PC. So, the current system largely works out for me, as I can normally get significant discounts on other store fronts. -
PC Tech Are there any good wifi range extenders?
AbsolutSurgen replied to Spork3245's topic in PC/Mac Technical and PCCB
I had the 2.4Ghz radio die on my router after about 6 years, so purchased a second one and setup an Asus AIMesh (I'm using an ethernet backhaul, but I believe you can do this over WiFi as well). Got rid of all the dead spots in my house. -
Sony Helldivers 2 already estimated to have sold 8 million copies
AbsolutSurgen replied to SaysWho?'s topic in The Spawn Point
It’s the hottest new game ATM. If Sony can keep the content coming, this could be the next “black hole” game. -
I've been humbled enough in the past to know that my opinions on which QB to draft are pretty bad. That said, I hope your team ends up with a decent franchise QB. I've heard that opinion on Williams from a number of football people I follow.
