I wanted to play the new Dragon Age game so I’m trying to blitz through Inquisition before I start it. Origins is one of my favorite RPGs and DA2 wasn’t as good but I still liked it, but I’m not totally sure how I feel about Inquisition. I think if I had played it back when it released and had time to explore everything I would have liked it a lot more but as it stands now I’m just trying to rush through it lol
I just had someone who was apparently a part of Operation Prosperity Guardian reply to me on reddit really mad that I made fun of the two US pilots who bombed Yemen and later died in a jet crash in the US. I told them if I were flying the jet it wouldn’t have crashed lol
Biden: hey cmon guys. what’s going on over there. knock it off, will ya?
“The spartans did not enjoy being gay” is a very funny sentence to utter
Regarding the performance, I tried the demo on PS5 and it ran pretty well. I haven’t finished it yet but got about ~2 hours in and liked it a lot. The whole “monsters are called ‘humans’” thing was a bit on the nose but I don’t mind that much. There’s something about the art style of the game that I can’t quite describe; it almost feels like a watercolor painting but also cel-shaded? Either way it’s unique and the UI is pretty striking as well.
Like you I will shovel into my mouth whatever Persona/SMT slop they give me so I’ll probably get it when it comes out.
I remember years ago when I was getting into the game I found MTGO, and it was the most janky client I’ve ever played on. The way you bought cards was like, topping up an account with credits and then opening a trade with some random bot and trading for the cards. Then a friend was like “you can just play with any cards for free” and showed me Cockatrice lol. Same thing happened when a group of us wanted to play D&D during covid lockdown so we all got tabletop simulator, downloaded the rule book pdfs and played that way.
A friend of mine plays warhammer and just 3D prints all his miniatures because fuck paying hundreds of dollars for what is essentially like 50 unpainted army men.
For what it’s worth the new GPU is a decent upgrade and it will support that PSSR AI upscaling tech they’ve been working on. I still don’t think it’s worth it, especially if you already have a PS5 or a relatively modern PC. This seems more aimed at people who have an outdated PC and haven’t bought a current gen console yet.
The price is still nuts, though. I would be interested to see how well it sells because with everything being so damn expensive now I would imagine not many people are racing to spend $700 on a console (with only one game included lol).
