Still waiting for the patch that makes this game feel a little less* soulless.

Shame that EA ruined SimCity. I miss it so much.

While most everyone loves Marvel’s Spider-Man 2

We do? I’m still waiting for a release date!

And shit like this is why I don’t like MMOs. The game should be ending once I’ve played long enough to max my character. Like you said, the journey is the point of RPGs IMO.

It’s worth the cost, given the fact that a computer holds considerably more value in terms of usability. You can’t write a resume or edit videos on a Playstation, for example. (Well I’m sure you could if you were determined enough, but you get my point.) And like I said, accessories like controllers are generally more expensive on consoles, and you have to pay a monthly fee to play online. This stuff adds up quickly; you’ve paid less up front, yes, but in the long run you spent more on your console than you would on a PC over the course of its lifespan.

Not to mention that PCs work just as well in the living room on a giant TV. I’m typing this comment from such a setup. Keyboard in lap, mouse on either the armrest or a table directly to the right of it. It’s very comfortable.

Lastly, I get the resale argument, but it takes decades for most games to gain enough collector’s value to be worth my time to sell it (if it ever happens at all). More often than not, you’ll get $5-10 at best if you’re lucky. It’s cheaper in the long run to just take advantage of Steam sales, and there’s the added bonus of getting to keep your games forever.

edit: Also, mods.

Crysis was the game that got me to stop being lazy and finally build my first PC.

RDR 2. Bought it back in 2019 but my PC couldn’t really handle it too well (less than 45 FPS on medium), so I shelved it.

But now I have a 4090 and I’m enjoying the hell out of the game. It was slow at first but by the second chapter I was hooked. Looks damn good for a 4-year-old game, too; dare I say as good as a modern ray traced title. (I mean it’s close)

If it doesn’t have Gigabit ports (minimum), it’s useless. Judging by that USB 1.1 port, I wouldn’t hold my breath.

Good. I hope more developers follow suit cause maybe it might finally convince Apple to start selling PCs with proper GPUs in them again. It won’t happen, but I can dream.

This guy made a slimmer one. He cheated with the cooling, yes – but still – not bad for just one guy.

I realize that; I want to know if it works yet.

Does it work on Nvidia cards yet?

You can already play it in VR with Vorpx.

I’m more interested in a VR remake with path tracing.

You’re right, I didn’t notice that anything was missing until I started reading threads here and on the Steam forums. I’m having fun playing casual.

Don’t worry I don’t bother with all that shit. I practice by playing deathmatch. I just want to be good enough to stay out of silver this time around. That’s enough for me.

Been playing casual. Doing a lot better than I thought I would. So now I’m wondering if I’m better than I thought, or if casual matchmaking is skill-based as well.

They should have called it CS: Source 2, then. The game hasn’t changed enough to be considered a sequel. They made the same amount of improvements to this one as they always have in the last. Doesn’t make sense to call it a full-blown sequel.

They probably figured that if Blizzard could get away with calling it Overwatch 2, despite being the same game, they probably could too.

So do you think the game is worth getting back into now, or should I just give up all hope at ever being half decent at this game?

Last time I played was in 2014. Started as a Silver I, and worked my way up to Gold 1. I was never a competent player. I feel like if I try to get back into it now, the game will just be full of the same old players from past CS titles and I’ll still stand zero chance of ever getting gud. Or do you think the sequel will bring in enough new players that I might do alright?
