Didn't even realize Dungeons 4 was a thing until reading it here. I had a blast with the original Dungeons, and 3 was great. Instant buy for me.

One of the comments on that YT ad block article makes a great point. Google makes huge money, so they should go back to allowing ad blockers to skip advertising on YT. Essentially, enforcing the ad-block block causes user ill will and Google make so much money they really shouldn't care if YT ad blockers function.

Think I'll buy one just for the decorative effect in the geek-cave.

I play a lot of 2042 (PC, MNK), and it's super easy to spot PC MNK players using aim assist. I can't imagine how anyone could get off by cheating in a game, especially where statistics do not matter. I think cheaters are sociopaths, and there's a whole lot of them in the world.

I'm using a 13900KF and 4090, at 3840x1600, everything turned up to 11 and it's fantastic. The HDR is terrific too. Best looking game I've ever played.

Ya, it's smart of CDPR to auto-disable mods. I've started a new game to play with the 2.0 rules from the start and build a new V. I don't mind playing without mods on the early part of the game, since it may take a lot of time for modders to update their mods. I'm hoping for the CET mod to get updated soon in order to take some of the grind out of the game, like crafting mats and money, and such. Such a bummer CDPR fixed the vendor dup glitch.

So far, lots of fun. I'm enjoying most of the changes.

I have a 13900K with AIO and a 4090 with AIO. Temps really haven't been a problem for me because I'm not trying to play everything at 400 FPS. I generally stick to 85 FPS for the best HDR settings, and only play with higher frames for shooters. I've already put a power limit of 75% on the 4090, and I think I'll look into under-volting my CPU. Res is 3840x1600 so not as demanding as 4K.

Using a 4090, resolution 3840x1600, + path tracing; DLSS @ quality ~85 FPS, DLAA at ~50 FPS, so I'm using DLSS quality. Looks nice, but it's pretty difficult to notice the difference with the new path tracing.

It's hard to imagine how incompetent a video game studio must be to take a beloved franchise and run it into the ground. I suppose it's all about ego.

My biggest gaming addiction was being a day 1 WoW player. I made a lot of virtual friends that I still keep in touch with. I had a lot of fun, even though the time could have been spent more productively, but I don't regret it. When I was done with the game, I simply stopped playing it. Not sure what the game designer's point is. Human's are designed to form habits.

I was one of the investors in the original pCARS. Made a tidy 200k. Think I'll ping Ian and see if he'll accept investors again.

It just doesn't have much replay value, and playing stabby with mechs isn't all that interesting to me. It's too bad. The IP seemed ripe for a AAA game, but it seems it's not going to happen.

Or, you know, maybe just create a character appearance process like most every RPG ever and call it a day.

With regard to the hearing loss article, there's a few different groups doing trials on regenerating hearing.. which is a big deal to me as I have horrendous tinnitus and hearing loss as a result of being a metal-head. It's just frustrating that articles are always about "new research" and never about, "come to our clinic for the procedure". Hopefully soon.

Easy to wish the deal is denied, unless you bought a shit-ton of shares when the price dropped when during the original controversy. If it goes through, I make about a hundred grand instantly, and then, of course the shares are converted to MS and that doesn't suck either.

Do you know how ridiculous you sound?

"I will stay fully vaccinated and socially distanced so I can visit him??" LOL! WTF is the point of the vaccine then? It's almost like admitting it is worthless. You got some real thinkers in this ecosystem here at Blue's News. Wow! Sheep, Sheep!!

And the "other" guy was fully vaccinated and boosted and he's dead...am I hearing that right? Ummm, okay then.

And I fully agree with Armengar, "PLease let me DIE off so that you real 'critical thinker's (vaccine junkies) are all that's left. Oh, what a utopia it will be. You will be called "The Master Race". Lining up for vaccine shots every 3 to 6 months for each mutation that Dr. Faucci pulls out of his ass!"

Yes, I beg you, let me catch the measles and die. Let me catch Covid and die so that you geniuses are all that's left. LOL!
Future Herman Cain Award Winner right there.
