It's snowing here :(
If you don't want it send it my way! I love the snow. Spring and Summer suck. :p All the bugs come out, allergies flare up, gets all humid and hot. Bleh.

Yes or no to these?

Danganronpa V3 - Only if you liked 1 and 2.
Tales of Vesperia - Heck yes!
Soul Calibur 6 (for solo play) - I got it for solo-play and really like it. Character creation is fun and there is a story mode dedicated to a character you create. Plus the main storyline, plus all the arcade modes. So yeah... it's really good and full of content even if you never go online.

So people talking about ultra wides and 4K monitors. I rather just have something like this:

It's hard enough to game on a single 4K monitor. What kinda ultra-GPU would you need to power a 4K center and two other displays as well? :face-with-cold-sweat:

Speaking of mice, anyone can shard their thoughts in G305? Don't want a massive mouse like the one lashman posted, needs to be wireless, and priced around €50, so G305 seems to fit all criteria

And that's from a g502 owner :p
The G502 looks like it's prepared for atmospheric reentry. I would trust it with my life for traveling to distant galaxies.

Also, I'm envious of those who can purchase a Valve Index. I want one, but I live in the worst possible country so there's no way I'll get one.

For just a few bucks more (at least on Amazon US) the G603 will double your battery life and has a high(1000hz)/low switch for even more battery conservation. Plus the 603 is a little heavier compared to only 99 grams for G305, I dunno if you prefer a ultra-lite mouse but for me they feel a little too flimsy. :face-with-cold-sweat:

I've had my G603 for over a year now and still haven't changed the batteries, despite every-day use. ;)

That said, if the G305 has to be the one you get, it definitely seems to have reviewed well with customers.

Where do you live? 27,99€ I got one from there for even less. If you like the shape there's little to complain about, the sensor is great, weight is okay, mousewheel good, clicks are a tad loud.

I'm still going through my Assassin's Creed binge, and yesterday I started Rogue. Wonder how long until I get tired of them; in the last 2 months I played every game between 1 and 4 except for 2, which I had already finished. Those tailing missions are the worst by far, and I wouldn't be sad if they never appeared again. Also, it's funny how similar Rogue is to 4: same menus, same UI, same graphics, same controls (except for a few details that are worse, like mapping the spyglass to d-pad up or changing the weapons positions to something more uncomfortable) and same modern day stuff. It looks more like an expansion pack than a brand new game. It also has some stuff from 3, such as part of the setting, so it feels as a mix of both games. Kinda like how Revelations was a sequel to both 1 and Brotherhood. To me it makes sense: just like Rev closed the Ezio trilogy and Altaïr's game, this one closes the Kenway era (although none of them have appeared in Rogue yet, and I don't know if they will).

Think I'll play the China Chronicles game once I'm done with this, and then the other two after every main game. Otherwise I'd have to play all 3 in a row after Syndicate, and I don't know if they'll get boring or whatever. Of course, I could always play something else in between, but I have this momentum going with the series and I don't wanna waste it.
Assassin's Creed Rogue is next on my AC games to play list since I play them by release order. I really hope it's as close to Black Flag as they say, as that is my favorite AC!

Yes to all. Everyone knows that Japanese games are the best games. FYI I'm yet to play any one of them yet :LOL:
But make sure you get DQH2. In fact get any game with Dragon Quest in the title and thank me later :p
I forgot how much fun Zen Pinball was.

Tomorrow's my birthday. Woo.
Happy birthday! Have a good one ;)

It doesn't look like it has the "infinity scroll wheel" that my G502 has... am I wrong? I'd never be able to user a mouse without that feature anymore...

Yo somebody should open an hardware thread like the good old Build a New PC one, because I'm kinda planning of upgrade some parts and don't know shit about it (reason why I won't open such thread).

Also, my mouse (a super comfy Mionix Naos 7000) wheel is broken and I'd like to try another mouse.
I've got a big-ish hand (big for a normal person, not for a pro basketball player), and a hybrid palm/claw grip.
RPS tells me that the Corsair Ironclaw is GOAT, but it looks weird (even though the Corsair logo pairs well with Obra Dinn), as weird as the Logitech G502, and also both are more expensive than the SteelSeries Rival 310, that at least looks less ugly.

Anybody has any suggestions?
Keep in mind I'm not a pro player, so I wouldn't tinker with weights and DPI and stuff. I just need something comfy for like 10+ hours a day.
I would recommend the wireless Logitech G602 over the 502 any day fwiw. Comfier grip, more buttons on the side, wireless w/o any lag whatsoever, and the batteries last forever. My buddy has a 502, and I recommend the 602 over it in every way. I've already gotten both my ex and another friend to buy one and they couldn't be happier. DPI settings are also really simple and come in handy, just two buttons on the side.

Friends don't let friends buy a G502. If someone does he's not your friend and never was. With that universal truth out of the way I suggest the Razer Basilisk, it's slightly over 100g so on the heavy side (btw pro players don't tinker with weights in the sense of adding them, if anything they mod their mice to remove as much weight as possible) but it seems to have a comparable shape to your old Mionix. Or take a look at the G403, the hump on the back is uncomfortable for some though. The Rival 310 isn't bad afaik. Cheap tipp: Logitech G203, there's also a great wireless version. It's a bit too small for me (and you I assume) and I don't like that it becomes more narrow towards the bottom but worth a look/touch, ya never know.

Rocket Jump Ninja is always good for an overview btw, if only to see what's out there.



DeathAdder Elite yes or its close cousin Mamba Elite, but the MX518's shape just isn't up to par anymore and has some weird, uncomfortable edges. Also while the DA is big too the 518 feels even bigger. If it fits your hand or you want a dose of nostalgia good, but I wouldn't recommend it sight unseen.
Thank y'all!
I think I want to try the Ironclaw, Basilisk, and DeathAdder Elite. I might find some of them at the Game store nearby. 🤔

IIRC I had the MX518 a long time ago, but these days its photos triggers my trypophobia (for some reasons, I don't really suffer of trypophobia...).

My SteelSeries Rival 100 is all I need. It's been replaced byRival 110 now. I got mine for ~40, you could find it goingfor less I would guess. I wasn't happy with Logitech's stuff and now that SteelSeries has satisfied me I'll stick with them until I can't find anything good sensibly priced or they seem to miss the mark.

Since there has been quite a bit of VN talk lately. After having finished Umineko, The Devil on G-String is next in my queue (thanks again Echo!)

It's quite interesting so far and moves at a decent speed. Some speculations, ~2 hours in
I hope it's not something as "simple" as the MC being the titular Maou that Usami is searching for. The game has made sure to mention how forgetful he is and how he seems like a completely different person at times. Their line of work is essentially the same as well. Hopefully just a red herring or there are other twists involved.

I feking love Dark Souls III. Its brilliant. Its dripping with atmosphere. I've slowly been making my way through the game, getting smashed, sliced, and battered but inching my way to the next bonfire and victory. Had some help along the way from some grossly incandescent jolly cooperators (many thanks and Praise the Sun). Im now approaching the end game and tying up loose ends (murdering everybody).

I was a little bit burnt out on the souls series, hence the delay in playing III properly but now I think I would love these games to just continue forever. They are really special and so well thought out.

The Monthly with Black Ops 4 Battle whatever without Zombies is such a bummer. Two months in a row w/o a leading Steam game.
that's because steam is dead

I can't wait for first Epic header game next month.
