I ordered the JPN version this morning. Only £5 more than the digital version

Played up to chapter 5. Think I'm about to ride the dragon So far I quite like it. I'm playing on the easiest difficulty with all the sliders all the way down to try give myself a chance with M&KB. It feels a bit cheap earning achievements like this because I've not been in danger at all so far. But still feel like this is the right choice because when there's lots happening I'm still getting lost with the controls The biggest improvement to me so far is the level design and how they do secrets. They kind of feel more just off the side to the main path instead of Doom 2016 or Eternal where it was like figuring out a platformer style level puzzle which killed the pace of those games and I never thought was very good. I think it's better here simply because it keeps the pace of the game up. There's no stopping for 15 minutes looking over every ledge or trying to jump on every box to see a bit higher Although I have to say just like the other games, every time I complete a level and it offers me a chance to select the next one, I do feel exhausted and it takes effort to want to play more. In terms of the combat, I think playing on easy is not giving me a real sense of it, but I'm doing what I have too to try enjoy the game. I wish this game had a strafe button. Or double tap to the side. Luckily on easy the speed of the green projectiles is very slow but when enemies are shooting them left and right, if this was faster I don't know how you would do it One thing I really like is the story. I don't fully understand what's going on. But just the idea that the Slayer is on a leash and he's getting stronger all the time. It's a bit Incredible Hulk but I like it. My plan is to play the game like this until I get used to it, and if I get in to it bump it up to normal on a second playthrough. So far I'm liking it but getting a bit tilted with the controls as well (determined not to use the weapon wheel). This is not a review but just in terms of my enjoyment I would say it's hovering around a 7/10. The shield is cool and I like the sense of power, I think this game is better paced and the story is interesting. It's still kind of exhausting and obviously my own experience is a bit tilted because of the buttons. But it's all right. I definitely like it more than the previous 2 so far.

Is there a way to make Nvidia app just download all drivers automatically? Everytime I put the PC on I have to update everything manually

You want it cooked well or not

https://www.videogameschronicle.com/news/red-dead-redemption-2-is-reportedly-coming-to-switch-2-as-take-two-commits-to-nintendo/ Whoa shit Best R* game bring it to Series X and I start it again from the beginning All this news is getting me to try GTA5 again. I haven’t played it since the week it came out on PS3, and really quite disliked it. I think enough time has passed to give it another go

This shit is kind of brilliant “Am I to understand you want me to rank these digital diversions?”

Let’s the refunds begin

They added generative speech AI to Darth Vader and it’s gone about as well as you could possibly imagine

Don't worry about no meteor I've got just the button to handle it

Is that what you do when you do the ahh shuddup

Danny is talking about getting back in to games coverage Cool. But actually watch from the 5 minute mark and he has such a remarkable breakdown of the problem with games coverage, reviews, business and how things have flipped upside down it's worth listening too It's not even the point of the video. He just tosses out this super insightful shit for free

https://www.eurogamer.net/nintendo-admits-switch-2-wont-support-vrr-on-tv-after-all Switch 2 only supports VRR in handheld mode. I was thinking the Switch 2 might become a TV console, instead of like Switch 1 that I play exclusively in handheld, so this is pretty significant loss Maybe stick to handheld

I’ve been playing Mario & Luigi Brothership for the past week (real man’s Expedition 33!) I like it, in fact in the second half it’s getting warmer(after a pretty slow 15 hours)but it’s so definitively mid, so perfectly balanced between not good or not bad I can’t think of anything to say about it or start a thread. However, I’ve just got to a bit where they’ve introduced the 3rd set of special moves and this shit in this baby-ass game is so hard I’ve had to look up a YT guide and even after 10 attempts I can’t do it. I’m just not quick or coordinated enough 😭 And it costs 10mp at a time of my total of 36mp

The thing is AI could absolutely do my job. A computer could absolutely look through an excel spreadsheet and find all the variances and do all the corrections and input all the data. I’ve talked about this before on here but my big fear for AI is how it will decimate office jobs in 20-30 years down the line. I think most jobs will get turned in to “AI Supervisor” roles where AI does all the work and someone just sits there clicking yes it’s right or no it’s wrong and the AI does it again. In terms of accounts, there’s already computer scanners that can learn the pattern of invoices and do all that automatically. It’s not quite AI because someone needs to look at it and make small corrections but it’s close. I left my last job because it got so boring just sitting there clicking buttons making sure the computer has done it right My idea is that AI will do to office jobs, especially accounts, admin, etc what machines did to factories. I wasn’t trying to say AI is like a calculator exactly, more to the point I think it makes people lazy and turns their brain off. Same way calculators do. My maths has got so much worse working in accounts because everything counts for me. But accounts is more about organisation then math and I don’t a AI system is there yet. But overall the way I see people use AI and how lazy it makes them on critical thinking and pure laziness is a huge negative for a work place, obviously. It’s not that I don’t give a shit about the environment factor, either. I think about it when I use AI (Which is not all the time or everyday or something). But also I guess I don’t care enough. It is really easy and I get really bored

This is why I get pissed when I see people higher up than me using AI to write emails I think of LLM AI kind of like a calculator or when I add things up in excel. It’s a tool and it’s helpful but it will make you lazy. You still need to be able to eyeball something and know if it’s right or not. So when people use it to do stupid shit like emails. Like you can’t even manage that? Or it’s made you that lazy already? I know I said I use it for dumb fun. But I kind of really hate the way people use it professionally
