@RehnSturm256 @riserise emulation, mods, sailing the seven seas, all easier and better on PC :) once you get into multiple monitors and shit too it's so nice to just have everything running off of one box.

@RehnSturm256 yup yup, sometimes you gotta bite the bullet. But it'll pay off. Especially if you're trying to do Skyrim mods, I'd say like half the mods out there especially more extensive ones need stuff like SKSE that isn't supported on console.

If you HAD to get a console I'd recommend a Series S but it's not *really* worth it unless you're seriously strapped for cash and can't wait a little bit to save up some funds. Or for those that don't want to deal with computer downsides (shader cache stutter in modern games, more troubleshooting, etc).

@RehnSturm256 @riserise it's because you're meant to get a gaming pc as a way to do multiple things with it. It doesn't JUST game, you can do a lot more and you theoretically have a lot more freedom with the games. If you're playing online, that extra $300 will make itself up within a few years anyway too.

@Shadowbroker2135 WHAT is a man?? A miserable little pile of shoplifts!

@djsumdog @Jain @susie @lamp @prisixia I use the cursor from pso2 lol, I was using a different really cool one but the animations got all fucked up for some reason

@tabarchie I can always tell if art has been generated and it's a little annoying. I have only used it really as a quick novelty or for D&D characters that I can't find good pre-existing art for.

Alone In The Dark update, I'm on Chapter 3 now. Game feels like it's coming to a close pretty soon. I do quite like the story and the setting. The combat is so bad I dropped it down to Easy so I can get through it faster. Movement is just super clunky, you get trapped in corners very easily, reticle doesn't always like up quite right and sometimes you just can't shoot enemies for some reason (like invisible collision, something weird is going on there). I'm enjoying the puzzles, they're a little bit easy I'd say. Two of them I've just brute forced because they were combination locks with 6 symbols on 3 dials lol.

The puzzles kind of remind me of Uncharted, because for some of them you have to go looking through your notes and find diagrams and clues in there. However, all I can think about is how much better Uncharted is at this sort of thing while also having better combat.

There's nothing the game does particularly better than anything else, even some games from 20+ years ago, but I'm still enjoying it.

@coded_artist sooner or later you'll be a he-man woman hater

@InvincibleSugar

50 guides per week with a team of 7 writers means that you'll have to write one guide a day. Or, ideally, several in one day.

Keep in mind, these are not entire game walkthroughs. They are short game guides, such as "How To Get The Master Sword in Tears of the Kingdom."

You and I could probably write 50 of these in a week ourselves for the games we play. You have content creators who are dedicated to just one game that manage to make daily videos with little guides in them all over YouTube. It's more or less just "pick a game mechanic/quest and write a small guide for it."

These people are complaining not about having to write so much, because it really isn't much, but they're complaining that they have to write directly about video games that people play instead of industry drama. They are supposed "game journalists" complaining about having to play and write about video games.
