    Pixel 8 / Pixel 8 Pro / Pixel 8a

    Mine looks like that. Figured it was just some theme or setting I couldn't be bothered to change. Do kinda recall it changing at some point. 5G seems to finally be working well for me. Hadn't tried it for a long time because it destroyed battery life, and mine seemed to always go to emergency...

    Elden Ring (From Software RPG)

    Picked this up during that sale. Went into the game mostly blind. Played through DS1,2,3, BB and Sekiro previously, but I never even watched a review about ER or any gameplay besides the official trailers years ago. Haven't played any new games in the last couple years until Starfield. At...

    BLOODBORNE - Gamescom gameplay trailer

    Yeah this was the game that got me into From games. Currently playing through Elden Ring for first time, and man it is awe inspiring at times. Also, rage inducing lol. Saw reply to this thread pop-up in my alerts, was hoping for a solid pc port rumor :(.

    The Lords of the Fallen

    Ended up finally picking up Elden Ring last week on sale, so I'll let this get polished for a while and pick up on sale too.

    Pixel 8 / Pixel 8 Pro / Pixel 8a

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking my bottom dollar would be. Below that, will consider changing out from my Galaxy 4. Not sure what else a watch can do tho. Lasts all day, tracks steps and gets notifications.

    Pixel 8 / Pixel 8 Pro / Pixel 8a

    Ordered 8 Pro from BB. $400 trade credit for my damaged display 7 Pro is probably best I can ever hope for. Broke it in the field at work. Got a replacement display, and it started failing within an hour. Has an ever growing circle of dead pixels. Store said no warranties... Hopefully sell the...

    Starfield

    Certainly makes sense. Swore I was getting a Q3 vibe with the combat, which ain't a bad thing.

    Starfield

    Oh yes. Started with Oblivion. After FO3, swore I wouldn't get another one of their games until they made an entirely new engine or something drastically changed. Skyrim, FO4, and SF later...still a glutton for disappointment I guess. Sucks when other developers have made massive strides...

    Starfield

    Definitely feeling this now: https://youtu.be/a_lu152g5aM Constant loading and fast travel screens to accomplish tasks is greatly detracting from the gameplay. Also doing some kind of espionage quest line currently. No one cares where you go. Just stroll into a corporate HQ, walk past security...

    Starfield

    About 25 hours in. Went through at least a couple cycles of not liking the game, then loving it, and back again. After a few minor tweaks, mods and adjusting my TV settings, this game does look pretty good now most of the time. There's a lot of other things either visually(not graphics quality)...

    Starfield

    I do think Starfield looks good in the smaller areas/indoors and performance is fine, for me anyway. This was directed at the "open world", or larger areas. It seems in the city, and maybe other larger areas they really had to cut down on the IQ otherwise you'd get like 10fps. Which suggests the...

    Starfield

    Just got to the city. To me it's really jarring how far behind Starfield is graphically. Loaded up games like Shadow of the Tomb Raider, RDR2, Metro Exodus and even Horizon Zero Dawn. They all look vastly superior, in the total open world. Even with DLSS turned off and RT if possible the FPS...

    Starfield

    Acquired the game so I could mess around with my display settings. If HDR in Windows is enabled, black level setting on the TV didn't seem to make a difference between full and limited. Renamed exe to FarCry5, with HDR in Windows. This allowed me to get the HDR pop-up notification on the TV...
