>We need to rethink how we speak to men
Yes that would be wise for reasons other than the ones he is thinking of.

@PraxisOfEvil Also, it's all about changing the *Messaging*, not the Policies. So basically, it comes down to how the Democrats intend to sucker young men into voting against their own interests going forward.

It's stupid and silly but I really hate these kinds of memes and jokes, they're midwit favorites because these facts and quotes are the kind of "oh neat" things you clean from the first year in college

So they get shared by pajeets, browns, tards and midwits as if they belie special, classy, intelligent bearing. They're just Bazinga! facts you'd hear in that awful nerd sitcom

@LukeAlmighty They added the level back in an update, but the remaster is still inferior gameplay-wise and missing various details, even though the graphical changes are mostly for the better. The problem is that remasters are supposed to be low cost and porting the PC version that's on CryEngine 2 to CryEngine V would have probably cost more like making a new game, so they picked the shitty PS3/360 version that was on CryEngine 3, same version as Crysis 2, which they just remastered.

Crysis 2 Remaster is good imho. It's identical to the original, but the lighting is better plus it has raytraced reflection. SVOGI is great, the low cost more than makes up for it's shortcomings.

Crysis 3 Remaster is ironically shit anyways because it avoids the criticisms you are making here. In order to not compromise it's artist driven lighting they didn't add SVOGI, so the game looks the same except it has raytraced reflections and grass updates at 60hz instead of 15. So the remaster is just pointless.

@LukeAlmighty These days you can just mark a mesh as a static shadow caster.

I watched the stream, the game slowed down when E;R turned the shadows back on to solve the star puzzle because it was barely visible without them.
The drop in performance is telling.
It takes a special kind of incompetence to make a scene this poorly optimized.
I wouldn't even consider optimization in a small room like that.
Some of the meshes there must be VERY detailed for no reason, and have no LODs.

Also I forgot to mention, the fix for this is trivial, and would've taken 20 minutes at the most, per scene.

Some people still bake shadows, but usually only when they want their stuff to look good while working on a potato or mobile.
Some games bake shadows into textures, which is usually frowned upon, but it can help improve performance a lot, since it can save on use of normal maps.
I think Borderlands 1 did that.
