Not the first time; many developers have griped that it is under powered and a pia to support (and ms requires that all xbox be supported to release a product for the xbox); larian being larian is just being a wee bit more transparent than some other companies.
I really think this company should be applauded of how they have supported the game; they could have just taken money and ran. Reminds me of grim dawn.
The focus of these 'early access' by larian studio is to test systems; they usually provide the first area and very little content update but change the system to test multiple things. This also means the first section of the game on release will be the cleanest and there will be many patches to...
Given the terms of the agreement my prediction is he will settle to pay a portion of the 1 billion; probably more than 100 million; though if i were twitter i'd push for the full 1 billion. He signed a silly agreement that basically doesn't give him an option of backing out or very much in the...
I want to upgrade my sandy bridge system (2500k) to alder lake and to use the chip's gpu i have to have secure boot enabled. Alas I'm behind the times and not sure what it takes. I.e, does secure boot actually require some sort of certificate or is it just an abuse of the word secure. I'm...
I think it depends on the ea - some ea are about steady release of new content - releasing new chapters as time passes - with larain it is all about testing mechanics and not about area development. They prefer to hold back the areas while they play with game mechanics (during ea). BG3 was...
This machine is only games; and i would hate to have reinstall everything; after all this system has over 11 years of installs on it. If this was linux it wouldn't be a big deal because games would be installed under user directory on a sep disk and i could just re install the system disk but...
I just ran into this thread because of a problem i'm having with alder lake. I have an old windows 7 disk that was upgraded to windows 10; the boot on it seems to not be compatible with uefi; I'm just guessing here because i've not followed the whole secure boot stuff -- but to get the system...
Still after the disaster of a release they've done a good job supporting it even if shooting crystals is boring. Maybe one day someone can suggest an update that make shooting crystals more entertaining !
This is a bit of an over simplification as HDMI objective is copy protection. You could argue that they were replacing components on tv but I think it is a bit deeper than that. Of course the copy protection is completely broken which beg the question of why they persist. I often wonder if it...
With regards to display port I believe the original motivation seemed to have been increase bw required by desktop but these days hdmi is sufficient for 4k at 240hz. Not sure why display port was required in the first place but i suspect it was competing markets (tvs vs monitors) and the...
I have a zfs raid of 4+2 and another which is mirror 1+1; then the boot disk so that is 9 disk off the bat. Currently I use an lsi controller in it mode (not raid); but the connectors are messy and have to be reseated every now and then.
Ok Ok. I guess I missed the hdmi port when I was look at the boards that supported the G series (they list only 4 boards as being compatible). For example the x570 asrock tachi; but it seems to have an hdmi port this morning. Maybe i was still asleep when i made the post. Hum. Now to find a G...
I'm a bit confused; the motherboards that are listed as compatible with the ryzen 7 5700G do not have video out connectors so how do you use the discrete gpu on the processor ?
You know I think i preferred titan quest to grim dawn. Mind you I haven't played titan quest for over 8 years but when i did play i played multiple times with different builds. With grim dawn - i grew fairly bored after the first play through. Not sure why but I think the area design never...
Well my sandybridge system is kind of long in the tooth and i'd like to upgrade it in the next 12 to 24 months. My view is amd can either release the zen 3 with igp to retail or i'll just get another intel.
Just a minor comment here - i believe the mount is at the center of gravity which happens to be lower portion of the display due to power supply being in the base.
Well this is a bit misleading. The monitor does have unique properties that is relevant to the target market and not relevant to gamers. As to the cost of those features - well hard to judge but some of it is due to smallish market size. Anyway these days nothing is getting manufactured so...
Yes. Both monitors have the same specs - they are both targeted towards video editing with appropriate refresh rate and colour gammet for such. They are competing against the much (5 digit) more expensive sony monitors.
Come on - that is bullcrap. There is a big market for these monitors in video editing. Sony has very expensive units that are normally used. If these monitors sell for 6K and have the same fidelity and longevity as the sony monitors it will be a HUGE savings for the consumers. Having said that I...
