I’ve been crushing maggot-filled mutant satanist-skulls.
The latest patch for Darktide finally made it functional for me.
If I cap it at 60 fps it does not crash every 20min anymore.
Darktide really did not like my Ryzen 9 3900x and rtx3080 “ufo rated” rig.
But now it works at least, and it’s fun.
Maybe a bit boring maps though.

100% svensk här och jag har samma problem.

Nice!
I’ve always been an Intel guy. But I have owned two AMD computers over the years. Both of those gave me a very unstable experience.
High performance, but unstable.
My latest pc is a Ryzen 9 3900x computer, and im definitely going back to Intel next time.
My ryzen is very warm (which makes the fans become loud, first time I’ve had to switch to liquid cooling to be able to be in the room) and I’ve had a very unstable experience overall. Had to fiddle with energy settings and stuff to get it running properly.
There has been several new games where I had to wait to even be able to play them due to crashes or inexplainable low performance.
Darktide for example, still crashes for me, while my buddies old Intel pc’s runs it great and no issues. Totally missed out on that game as they are now done with it.

Sorry for rant, but Im quite frustrated with this pc.

WWN is free, so I highly recommend!
I’ll be happy if you at least take a quick look at other ttrpgs. :D

DnD is obviously the most famous one by far. The problem is that it’s so famous, most people don’t think that there are in fact other games out there, often with newer ideas and better design, faster and easier mechanics that does not get in the way.

There is also different styles to consider.
The combat focused every PC is an unkillable superhero powertrip style fantasy, like DnD5e and Pathfinder.
The lethal think before you act type old school style fantasy.
The narrative Powered by the Apocalypse style games.
The investigative thriller type GUMSHOE and Call of Cthulhu games.
Etc etc.

Im running my favorite of all time game Delta Green (great podcast here if you want to listen) as the main game right now and Forbidden Lands in between, for our fantasy fix. Great games as well!

I run a ttrpg Delta Green campaign between Cyberpunk 2077 on pc.

Do Worlds Without Number instead of DnD. Trust me.
I also started with DnD and slowly realized it’s not a very good ttrpg.
You’ll see when your players start sighing deeply everytime combat starts because everyone knows that this will take the whole evening.

Can you tell me what makes it draw you in?

Doorkickers 2. Cannot stop.

Tänker likadant.
Tittar på Areon och Malmstolen 4000 nu.

Huh? There is even a forum function that can act as a news feed.
It is what you make it.

When I hear immersive sim I think of Arma and not Bioshock.
I don’t know how sim plays into the genre.

Are there any international Discord server for gaming news?

Imagine if Rockstar did a superhero game.
With their satire style on it. Like The Boys style.
Open world, some destructive environment, a deep character creator.

I haven’t seen it yet but I keep hearing people say “it’s like a Denis Villeneuve movie but with poorly written characters”.

WhatsApp to coordinate.
Discord for voice chat and sharing links etc.
Foundry for play.
Miro for “clue board” when playing investigative games.

I could not bring myself to finish Starfield. Such an old feeling generic janky game. Fucking fast travel simulator. They didnt even bother to fix the NPC faces. Like 5% technical improvements since Fallout 4.
Fuck that expensive crap.

Also looking forward to the Cyberpunk update.
Now maybe I can enjoy it. Love that world but I think I had every bug at release.

Playing:
Remnant 2, really fun!
Doorkickers 2, a new update came out with new missions I have to conquer!
Hell Let Loose got better again with the latest update, so I play that if I have the energy to shout orders into my mic (because no-one wants to be squad leader).
Sons of the Forest is coming along nicely.

Stopped playing:
Gave up on Starfield. What a mediocre janky game with generic story. Frustrating and time consuming menus. It’s not massive at all. It’s just big empty rooms behind loading screens. There has been like 5% technical development since Fallout 4. They didn’t even bother to fix the mannequin NPC faces for their game “that has been in development for 12 years” or whatever.
I cannot fathom how some people swallow that stuff and goes “10/10 game of the century” and pay 80€ for it.
Sorry for rant.

Looking forward to:
Cyberpunk 2.0
The infantry combat overhaul for Squad.

I think some kind of exotic wagyu meat. Very good, but very small portion and not worth the money. I think it was 140€ or something like that. With a drink included.

My friend only pirates 80€ games to try them out before buying.

I rarely vote anywhere. I think it’s a toxic habit for many platforms and it fucks with some peoples brain.
Example:
Voice your sincere opinion that you really like blueberry ice cream. Get downvoted because someone thinks raspberry is better but just gave a downvote and no reason. Spend the rest of the day wondering why.
