Great work as always lashman
Probably just Loop Hero and Yakuza 6 for me this month. And the former just because I preordered it when I was in a buying mood. Haven’t even played the demo.
Otherwise I am trying to play purchases made in the last couple of Steam Sales. Not like I have much choice to do something else with my 970. If my 2070 Super gets fixed I'll probably get back into Nioh 2 and finally dive into Valheim

tl;dr:
How I cut GTA Online loading times by 70%
GTA Online. Infamous for its slow loading times. Having picked up the game again to finish some of the newer heists I was shocked (/s) to discover that it still loads just as slow as the day it was re
nee.lv
tl;dr:
- GTA solo mode takes 1 min to load, while GTA online mode takes 6 min to load
- a hacker investigates without direct access to the source code
- this hacker succeeds at decreasing the load time of the online mode to 2 min by fixing Rockstar's noob mistakes

Yeah, I read it yesterday. Nice work.
I think it's a good example of people not profiling nearly enough (or when they do, not with the correct dataset / in the correct circumstances). Half of my optimization lecture is about measuring correctly.

I am terrible in Apex Legends especially the weapon customization on the fly. It plays, looks, and sounds great though.
Interesting. You value Elex higher than Control! And you value Peaky Blinders and Kingdom much higher than I thought. Peaky Blinders had been bundled a few times already, so that is why I thought it would be much lower in the ranking. As for Kingdom, I agree that the game has some appeal, although it is in a niche.

I made similarly botched parsing code (not json, word per line) back in school C++ class with Hagman game spending long tim reading wordlist. (I did figure out something was wrong tho and was able to fix it). I think it was something stupid looping thorough linked list every time adding new word rather than keeping reference to previously added element).
Hard to believe code like that makes to AAAAAAAAA game. (at least both problems are not directly in their own code tho)

Thanks @lashman for another great thread!
Great thread @lashman
yes ... it's GREAT ... buy it!
you won't regret it, i guarantee it
Coffe Stain Publishing still has the top 2 global sellers on Steam with Valheim and Deep Rock Galactic.
I don't know about WWE being high tier. I'd probably throw it down to Medium, and bring Hotshot up there with it.
Speaking of Hotshot Racing

I FINALLY got a response from Voidu on my Bloodlines 2 cancellation after over a month.
According to the support email I got they’re actually going to be refunding all Bloodlines 2 pre orders because of the latest delay, and that’s why my request has been taking so long (even though my cancellation request was before the latest delay announcement but hey)

Also, huzzah for the new thread 
Fuck how is it already March?

Shit, didn't realize Maquette is out tommorrow. I love the design, look and concept of the game, but Im currently playing P5S, started a bit on Stranded Deep yesterday and Loop hero is out on the 4th.
dammit

Well, Elex is cool and fun and a gem but Control wasn't really my cup of tea. I didn't give it a proper chance though, so I'll probably get back to it at some point.
Peaky Blinders and Kingdom are the only ones I recognize of the rest.
Thanks for your inputs!
I appreciate that, contrary to the Time Crisis games, there is not a white screen each time the player shoots. That got me nauseated back in the old days.
Edit: So awful, even on Youtube:
By the way, Valve has never bothered fixing the white screen which appears for every fight in Artifact. Thankfully, the issue is less noticeable in version 2.0 because fights happen simultaneously in the three lanes, which results in a 3x decrease of the number of white screens.

New Thread !
Do not risk my ire, I own the keys to this thread's survival. I can invoke the Great Old Ones, Bloodborne, God of War 3, Tim Sweeney. At the same time. It would be just like the Huns, not even weeds would grow again here.
...
That being said I should clean the litter
I see some people feel cheeky today

What's the story about the translation though ? I think I read it was horribly full of memes at one point but it was corrected ? Was the translation bad or the source ? And I still see recent bad user reviews about the dialogs being difficult to understand.enjoy!
What's reality and what's hyperbole ?

Thanks for the great thread, lashman .
