    Honestly, I’ve had nothing but good luck with Asrock. The few times I’ve needed at MB replacement (one was for a 2 year old board that had a known issue, Intels fault, not theirs) they just sent me a replacement board after I sent mine in.

    Its probably been 5 years since I’ve had to use thier RMA process, but I’m still putting Asrock boards in everything I build. I build for pretty much all my friend and family circle (probably 3-8 builds a year) and I don’t know of any that have had an issue so far (they would for sure come back to me for help if they did).

    Taichi is such a great enthuaist line and Steel Legend is a great mid range. I’ll always recommend them.







  • Thier last game (released over three years ago) is still in Early Access and they already got thier pay day. This is why I hate modern gaming. Gamers can’t help but pre-maturely ejaculate over some new thing, so devs are able to keep shoveling eternal Early Access games. I vote with my wallet and don’t buy EA games, but my game group still does. I miss out on a lot of gaming sessions because of it.

    Personally I think gaming companies should not be allowed to charge for Early Access and basically just go back to free betas for testing. Or if they do have an Early Access, they should be forced to have a published release date or automatic refund if they miss. That will prevent devs from releasing half baked content and coasting on it for years.

    They can still provide content and fixes via standard updates.

    Not looking to pick a fight, but it doesn’t sound like your the target audience any more. PvP has been pretty much removed from the game because of the low engagement. Some of the in-world mechanics exist, but the majority of players don’t partake. What people really wanted when it came out was fallout 4 with buddies, which it pretty much is now. PvP is never gonna be good in the creation engine, too buggy and full of exploints, it’s meant for open world story building and it should stick with that.

    Sures, completely different settings, but if your looking for a Bethesda fix it does the trick, IMHO, better than Starfield does. Didn’t have a great first year or so, but it had 5 years of active updates under its belt now, they have removed most of the stuff that players didn’t want and added in the stuff they do.

    There is no survival / hard mode, that was removed few years back.

    It’s actually kinda funny, Starfield has given Fallout 76 a player base boost. Lots of new players showing up saying they came from Starfield to get their Bethesda fix because they were disappointed like you. And in my opinion, the world is one of the best they have done.

    The lack of quests was only a launch issue. They have had 5 years of expansions, NPCs, and added quests now.
