By JesalR Go To PostXeSS? Are there any Intel GPUs on the market yet to even bother worrying about that?XeSS will also have a gpu-agnostic path so that it can work with cards from any gpu vendor.
By Kibner Go To PostXeSS will also have a gpu-agnostic path so that it can work with cards from any gpu vendor.Oh damn, that's cool. Assuming it needs to be run on a card with some kind of higher powered float cores?
By JesalR Go To PostOh damn, that's cool. Assuming it needs to be run on a card with some kind of higher powered float cores?I don't remember the specifics, tbh. According to their press site:
The main requirement for the XeSS algorithm is graphics drivers with support for Shader Model 6.4, making it compatible with a broad set of shipping hardware.
According to some other sources I quickly googled, it requires the DP4a instruction set. Here is a reddit post which has an incomplete list of which GPUs that should support it.
It Takes Two love
Let’s change gears a bit. Do you get much time to play games these days, and are there any new releases that grabbed your attention from the past few years?
I haven’t had a lot of time to play video games lately, but I try to dedicate some time when I can. One game that stuck with me recently was It Takes Two. I managed to play that one from start to finish with a friend online in three days across three sittings, and it was a great time. That game really left an impression on me, so yes, that’s one that I’ve managed to finish, at least!
What stood out about It Takes Two that made it unique or memorable for you?
It didn’t let up throughout, and it never let me get bored. The art and gameplay are different in each stage, and the game encourages you to cooperate across its entirety yet still maintains that artistic element. It’s continually fun to play and felt extremely fresh to me right up until the end, which was impressive to me as a fellow creator. Honestly, I didn’t have that much interest in it at first. But when I gave it a go with my friend, it finally clicked. And with a small child of my own, the narrative resonated with me, which was most interesting in the end
If you could collaborate with another influential creator (writer/game developer/movie director, etc.) on a FromSoftware game, who would it be?I'm not sure someone from Hollywood will work unless its horror, so probably a prominent anime creator, maybe? Nothing sounds likely tbh, but neither did GRRM.
That’s a difficult question. Even with the George R.R. Martin collaboration, this is something I didn’t even imagine would be possible. And yet, here we are. It’s not something I’ve given a great deal of thought to generally, to be honest. But let me see if I can think of something…
*Pauses*
I don’t think I would choose a fellow game creator. Honestly, one of the major appeals of working with George R.R. Martin was how the medium he works in is such a different style. Games and books are vastly different forms of media, after all. So if I were to choose, it would be someone who can provide that same level of stimulation that’s impossible for us to achieve as game developers. It could be someone who works in books, art, music, or anything that gives that impetus and can drive us as fellow creators but in an entirely different genre. I think that would have to be it–it’s very challenging to pinpoint a specific person or studio!
It Takes Two was decent but I couldn’t finish it. Gameplay was alright but holy shit the story and characters were bad.
DAEMON X MACHINA is free on Epic Game Store for the next few days, fyi. Just put it in your library and it is free to keep.

By Zabojnik Go To PostGet the fuck out of here, lol.What? Decent game with some neat ideas. What more do you want from me?
Then why not say that instead of having to shit on it.

The Epic store is having another sale where you get vouchers that give you £8 discount if you spend something like £12. This time though it works if you have multiple cheaper games in your shopping cart so you can get some good deals. Shits on the steam sale and puts Gaben in the mud.
Phil da Gawd:
Microsoft will now be "more transparent" when someone is signing up for an Xbox membership so it's clear the subscription will auto-renew, how much that will cost, and that a refund will be offered if the renewal was by accident. Microsoft is going further with the refunds and intends to contact anyone currently on a 12-month contract to "give them the option to end their contract and claim a pro-rata refund."
honestly, I didn't pay much attention to the story, it was all about the gameplay variety. It just drags you from one area to the other
I wouldn't call it awful or bad though

Judging by what I saw from It Takes Two, the boy Disso is spot on
The book especially is annoying as shit

By cRrusheR Go To PostI never played it so what kind of awful are we talking here?The protagonists are awful people and it is hard to empathize with them.
By Laboured Go To PostPhil da Gawd:they keyword thats missing is forced
CMA (Europe) forced them (and probably others soon) to do this.
Free me from Netflix and Amazon Prime
An investigation by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) in Europe has forced Microsoft to provide more transparent, upfront information to help customers understand their Xbox gaming console membership and refund customers if it charged them for inactive subscriptions.
By Yurtlicious Go To Posthonestly, I didn't pay much attention to the story, it was all about the gameplay variety. It just drags you from one area to the otherThe variety and loop of “new gimmick, use for a bit, toss, repeat” is classic but I played it shortly after Super Mario 3D World and… yeah…

Adriana is better at Bloodborne than me.

Can we have signatures already, If I can't put "People think I'm ultra sexy, but I'm a nerd inside" under every single post then Web2 was a lie
You can only level up after meeting one of the bosses, she has 5k souls, 1 insight and her HP/Stamina are low.
First try.

By Daz Go To PostNo way that's her first try.Wow

What's this from?
The twitch streamer is sticking close, timing her dodges in ways most people don't do at the first boss.
Most impressive, I fought that bastard like 8 times.
The game doesn't start at the first boss, there's a whole ass level before him. Definitely enough time to learn dodging
I consider the first 8 hours to be a tutorial.
I was in the starting section for a good long while testing out weapons. Finally landed on the Axe, Spin to win, baybee!

By Pedja Go To PostIt's 2022 m8 ,women are allowed to play games. One day we might even see female mechanics.
And who knows, she might even do a decent job. Still, I wish her the very best.
yeah you can spend hours in yharnam before getting to that boss. i think one of the early complaints you saw a lot with BB is people were very confused as to how to level up because i dont think you can until you beat a boss or some shit?
just as an aside i watched one of her vr videos once and immediately felt like i needed to take a shower. how does one woman produce so much saliva
