stepee

I just realized Balatro is the perfect apple vision game and I’m now so mad I can’t have that floating around while watching a movie. Apple needs to pay whatever the cost to make this happen yesterday.

Oh trust me I agree it’s them* being very dumb! * to be clear I mean the hiring company

I feel time for me depends on how many new experiences I’m having vs how long time has passed. Like if I’m on vacation time is quite slow usually and a week feels like a large amount of time. If I’m at home just doing the routine like last week (new tech doesn’t count as new experience in this way) like I blink and it’s gone.

At least fighting dino’s is always fun and the game is still so gorgeous and has my favorite water in any game

“I would have smoked every day of my life if I knew they would cure cancer!” Actual thing I would say in that case

Start there imo as the opening is SLOW

Fair! I’m only not counting it because I’ll likely play it next year but definitely appears like it could be deserving.

Do you not have one that is at least far along?

well yeah we haven’t seen a GOTY contender yet because Hellblade 2 isn’t out until next month

yeah I knew it’s likely not going to be my thing though I did enjoy Elden Ring to my surprise so you never know and I’ll give it a shot. Mostly I got it to see RE engine current gen. I’ll be fine just getting to where I can climb on monsters and take them down and do that for a few hours. I doubt it becomes a game I beat but I’ll give it a shot!

lol I’m sure there are of course some people who are talented and probably would be either way! Just a comment on seeing hiring practices in IT companies where they prioritize computer science majors over people with experience and then the person has no idea at all how to even work. Like, people hired for network engineer jobs that don’t know what a switch is despite their major. Lots of wasted time training people with no real talent to design or troubleshoot or do anything without direct instructions.

Vision is such a weird product. It’s the coolest thing I couldn’t recommend anyone buy. I still feel we are like 5 years away from a version of this that is affordable/wearable to where people are willing to put it on for hours. But fuck it’s so damn cool. There is just not a better way to watch media. It makes me want micro oled for tv faster than it’s going to come. It makes me rethink even needing a nice tv in the future. It brings back 3D which I never wanted to go away in the first place. But $3,500 to watch movies by yourself with a headset on is a non starter..and the content is so bare bones beyond watching media. I do like the games that are on it so far more than I thought though. And moonlight working perfectly and giving me amazing image quality at movie theater size for pc gaming gives it extra life for me. But who all has a moonlight setup? And even that app I had to dig to find it because it’s beta so I had to use test pilot. I think it shows how early on this is that the ability to resize windows isn’t on by default. You have to dig into the display settings to find it. I turned it on and it seems to work great and adds a lot of flexibility to how large your content is so I have no idea why it’s not default. Theres no cool music stuff yet. Even Meta3 launched with an AR keyboard trainer. Connection to the mac works flawlessly. You don’t do anything to set it up besides look at an icon and pinch your fingers and it’s there with perfect Iq and latency. I tried playing Lies of P native on the macbook and it was just as good as moonlight with its direct connection. But I also realize I really didn’t need the macbook for the Vision experience at all. With a M2 chip it’s quit capable itself even with multitasking so you can sorta do the same stuff native. At least I haven’t discovered a particular use yet for myself. Though I am very happy with my macbook and switching to that for my music recording but that is totally separate from its use with Vision. I do see in the future perhaps sticking with macbook for my laptop and maybe even going M5 max or whatever and not getting another windows gaming laptop in the future. I am so so so glad 3D is coming back though and this gives me more designed for 3D content than I have had access to in a long time so I’m quite happy with it. But if I like saved up 3500 to buy this thing and saw what it had to offer I’d feel pretty bad.

I appreciate you keeping it real and saying your honest impressions even if it’s a gift! Honestly…I think when I get to it I’m probably going to agree with a lot of what you said..that’s why I’m gonna do Alone in the Dark first to put it off :P

ok ;(

your mom isn’t supported by the data bitch

I’m not saying it’s a scam or anything but man I haven’t met anyone out of college with a computer science degree that knows how to do stuff on computers

I find it challenging even on easy as the AI is quite good in this game and VERY aggressive.

Starfield Bleed 2 Armored Core 6 Returnal Ys9 Call of Duty: Modern Warfare (2019) Vampyr Suicide Squad Mario vs Dk Penny’s Big Breakaway Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden Brothers: A Tale of Two Sons Remake Horizon Burning Shores - Awesome dlc/expansion - just as good if not better than the main game. Sony really nails this kind of actual expansion style story dlc. Infamous First Light, Uncharted Lost Legacy, Miles Morales, and this. Different price points and marketed differently but all of them are pretty similar in size and scope and substantial feeling. Wish other companies did better dlc like this since games take forever to make now and this can help with the wait. There are others though of course like CP77 and I’m sure Elden Ring’s will be good. Im really happy with how it ended too!

okay yeah that is definitely a GOAT final boss - willllld

Yeah that looks about right! Though for me even on easy I’m playing like that still - it’s really story mode where it totally busts the game (or I’m sure easy for more skilled players)

The problem with that is if you do a straight story run like the guy who did my save did, in about 17 hours, you are like 20 levels behind. So any of the BS content, those dinosaurs just take too damn long to kill even if you don’t get killed yourself, it doesn’t work well. You have to do story mode to take down an enemy 20 levels up in any reasonable time but then story mode is too lenient with the damage you take to where it’s almost like playing with invincibility so that doesn’t work well either and you wouldn’t want to play the new content like that.

Any maple up in there

That is fine - it wants you to be level 41 to start it.

fuck ya

It makes sense to me. If you aren’t someone getting the relief here this doesn’t benefit you and only helps out a bunch of other people that are struggling and some peoples politics are completely self involved with no care or empathy toward others.
