Received a code for Vanguard Ultimate Edition from PR. Did not expect that.

But Im already playing Amnesia Rebirth and have plans for The Forrgotten City, Arise A Simple Story, Artful Escape, Ender Lilies, Eastward, Orcs Must Die 3 and Huntdown. Also wanna buy FH5.

Too many games.

Currently Vinny and Alex are back on Giant Bomb as NextLander is part of the ExtraLife Charity Marathon GB are running.



I totally forget about NextLander tbh so it's good to hear them after such a while. Rorie, Jan and Brad are there too.
Looks like they are playing Blood Shore.

I honestly could not care less. If they are prepared to buy the trinkets for more money then they can play the game a couple of days early.
It's not like they will be getting a better, less buggy experience than the people who play it at launch.

Oh for sure, there are far, far worse business practices and this one is extremely low on my list. It is more that it is sold as as perk for purchasing premium/collector edition when it only matters for such a narrow window.

I must have done some really bad things in another life.
Now that I use HDR on my monitor I discovered that my LED TV only do HDR at 30 fps.
Then I launched Avengers and, after confirming it in Windows, my Xbox controller bought in March 2021 now emits a dying motor sound when vibrating.

What's your spec? I doubt i can help i just want to know if my PC will be able to handle it as i'm really tempted.
GTX 1080 and a Ryzen 2700X.
Note, when I say no reason, I mean it occasionally runs fine at like 70-80 FPS but just caps it's framerate down to 45 or even 20 while barely using the GPU or CPU.

Oh, i have an OG RTX 2070 non-super and a 2700X, hmmmm. I wonder if it's generating shaders when the FPS goes to hell?
Can you repeat the drop at the same point each time or does it happen wherever you are?

It's weird and makes no sense. In some instances, there's like a hard FPS cap in place. Others, it seems like it's cutting in half while still varying a bit.

I've got it working a bit better now, and it fixes itself when I alt+tab. I think it's my GSync monitor being a pain and some driver twiddling with Vsync and other settings is making it work a bit better.

I am going crazy.
Avengers and Gamepad control panel, high pitched vibrations. Insufferable.
PCSX2, big or small motors, normal vibrations.

Finally decided to try FF9 with the Moguri Mod. Seeing my favorite FF looking this good warms my heart.
I tried FF IX a lot of times, but I always dropped it halfway through, because despite liking the game very much, I could not stand those loading times anymore. I've read that moguri mod partially fixes that, so I bought FF IX recently when it was on sale to play it on Steam Deck. I can't wait :face-with-tears-of-joy:
