    Ai Restaurant opens in California

    except it's an oversimplification and disregards the effects of automation reducing the relative price of goods and potentially frees up labor for other tasks particularly during a labor shortage. forcing businesses to become more efficient rather than abuse low labor costs is not always a bad...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Most AAA games also suck. But obviously some of us have different tastes. I'd spend a month in prison before I played another hour of RDR2. Xeno clash also an indie game. CDprojectred is triple A but they aren't owned by a major publisher

    Too Many Games on the Market

    I'm confused about what you are trying to say? Are you saying almost all Indie games are bad or that they can't be as good as the best AAA games? Kind of different statements there. You don't have to play every indie game you can wait for good reviews. Have you never played Hades? Not many...

    Walmart buying Vizio - $2.3B

    Competition for amazon is good. Can always build with ICF and metal roofs which are relatively inexpensive now to block signals. And Pyongyang for vacation is a pretty refreshing place to visit due the lack of ads

    [DEAD] LG UltraGear 27" OLED 1440P @ 240Hz for $675 @ Best Buy after recycling any monitor

    that's actually a good deal if paired with a Dell Amex offer (Typically $100-200 statement credit). Too bad the ports arent really up to snuff yet to avoid compression. also very bad for desktop use/text. very bad w ambient light. also not as bright as the lg and higher total latency. so more...

    MSI Monitor Cheats for You

    Without LAN can't prove legit. Always been that way. But this is clearly cheating. Only at the highest levels like top 0.1% are people NEVER missing something on the radar. As someone who was Diamond 1 back in the day when it was the highest tier even I could miss someone on the radar...

    Where are the next gen MMO's?

    I think you are underrating AI a little bit. At the very least AI would help generate a lot more content per man hour -have the human be the inventor and the AI fill in the gaps. Certainly the bar has been pretty low for a lot of crap quests - not a big hurdle to have massive improvement.

    The Apple Vision Pro goes on sale in the US on February 2 for $3,499

    First apple product I have the slightest desire to purchase. Can't imagine what applehards think. You're crazy if you think these things don't sell out.

    I'd agree, but low interest rates, cheap money accelerates the process

    Too Many Games on the Market

    I think there is definitely something to be said about big developers absolutely making trash these days. If you look at smaller guys they are all pumping SOLID games but without fancy 4090 devouring graphics. Also fairly dominated by survival/rogue lite crowd - Subnautica, Hades, Returnal...

    Where are the next gen MMO's?

    i'm largely being facetious when i say stop playing. keep playing if you are enjoying. i dont think it's a bad game like the crap that's coming out these days (BG3, Starfield, etc etc)- my argument is that it's success has stifled MMO development - which Dan_D disagreed with but i think you...

    Where are the next gen MMO's?

    Well here is a living breathing example of why I disagree with Dan_D. I played a reasonable number of MMOs post wow and I'd always hear people talk about "going back to wow." Like, just stop playing it man, just stop.

    So what happened to VR games?

    I'm strongly of the opinion that 3D and VR "failure" is more hardware limitations than anything else. 3D content that was buttery smooth and did not give you a headache was only achieved in about 2-3 cases - all high end late stage plasma TVs, one of which needed 3rd party goggles. Watching...

    Final Fantasy VII Rebirth (FF7 Remake Part 2)

    all of Japan's creativity has been diverted to porn games these days. also that's what happens when you stretch out an already long game that has only two interesting characters (Cloud and Seph). FF6 lore deserves an open world remake. almost every character in 6 >>> anything in 7 Hopefully in...

    Biggest Fail Game of this Year?

    Issue I have is most of the games were expected to fail. Especially D4 and Starfail

    Where are the next gen MMO's?

    wow killed the genre. Too hard to capture and retain market share. Also, p2w mini mmo phone games scratch the same addiction and dilute the field. If you're really looking.... phone is the current platform. Today with social media etc - hard to see ppl wanting the classic mmo style. HOWEVER...

    Misunderstanding between Microsoft & California judge results in leak of confidential documents submitted to FTC for Activision Blizzard merger

    So like a real life version of Pinky and the Brain. FTC = pinky and MSFT = brain trying to take over the (gaming) world - ends in comedy.

    Starfield

    When I was a kid I had Starcraft, D2, counter strike, Team Fortress, FF6, all the 64 blockbusters, Super smash, and just never really had to deal with endless shitty games though? Starfield might be the first bethesda game I actually enjoy so far. Fingers crossed

    AI feedback loop: Researchers warn of ‘model collapse’ as AI trains on AI-generated content

    Maybe the AI is just trying to off itself. Also gpt4 is not useless if used for what it's good at and you fact check it - has been steadily declining in ability though

    The Witcher | Official Teaser | Netflix

    the annoying part about this one was it was good enough at times and at some aspects (Henry acting) to give you hope....... then ended up as another trash netflix series. at this point the Polish Witcher series is far superior despite not following the books at all.

    Microsoft's deal to buy Activison/Blizzard for $67 billion - likely to happen, few obstacles left

    The best thing for humanity would be if CoD, Overwatch, Diablo, WoW, and Starcraft all died out in 10 years anyways. With the exception that I'd take another D2 remake with an additional expansion. The originals are all still so much better than the crap that's out there now, even with the...

    Final Fantasy XVI

    Yep and it's not even that it is ever TOO dark. It's that it's incredibly monotone especially after both time skips where the majority of the game takes place and the only characters left are the blandest ones ever written in all of human story telling except maybe Gav and Dion. The game stays...

    Final Fantasy XVI

    I was replying to the guy who said he preferred turn based - letting him know the game becomes turn based 1/3 of the way through outside of the boss and mini boss fights. And even the minibosses are turn based once you get judgement bolt. As far as personally I'm here just for the hdr and...

    Final Fantasy XVI

    Romans branded the forehead where hair doesn't grow. You know using common sense and all. Yes depending on time and place it was not always used and we could go on a 30 page delve into ancient slavery but when circumstances dictated it they wrote FUR on the forehead. And you are moving the...

    Final Fantasy XVI

    The combat is the same as previous games outside of boss fights (which are admittedly good) at I guess the 1/3 point into the game? Because you just enter a battle fire off an aoe move on. But hey in 16 unlike in 6 and 7 you can throw in a few sword swipes in real time... Lmao

    Final Fantasy XVI

    I'll try to explain more. The lack of diversity at first was not something that bothered me in the slightest because it was supposed to be set in a medieval western Europe setting. However, after having gone through much of the story, and every plot point is basically the same: the blight is...

    Diablo IV - The Real Official Thread

    Why were you expecting more? Made by trazhard. Last diablo game was DI ffs For $90 you could buy Chronicon, Hades, Vampire Survivors, Revita, and treat yourself to dinner. 5 experiences more entertaining than D4 without supporting a terrible company

    Final Fantasy XVI

    I'm actually starting to really dislike this game. Some of the worst writing I've had too endure in awhile. Who thought putting only white people in a game where a "branding" that turns you into a slave that could easily be covered up by facial hair.... makes anything more than 0 sense. Music...

    You in performance or graphics mode. I've been on graphics mode and HDR looks amazing on OLED no crashes. The blurring when panning is stupid though

    Really needs a PC port or ps5 pro or some performance patches right now. Story and characters bore me. Combat has potential.

    So far I agree. Story average. Graphics pretty. level design and attention to details all very good - the amount of detail on some of the stuff like the armored chocobos is really impressive. The characters are well below par for an ff game unfortunately. The combat is interesting though- I'm...
