There’s no functional difference between a laptop and desktop as far as performance for games. It’s all in the hardware.

And no, I am not the guy to talk to about which is the best hardware for which price.

For the most part choosing between a laptop or desktop amounts to portability. If you travel a lot? Laptops are easier to move. Otherwise desktops are technically better for heat dissipation: the more room means there’s less hot metal getting hotter from other hot metal crammed into a small space.

Regardless, if the problem is just a battery then replacing that is, obviously, far cheaper than a whole new rig.

@Lord WyrmSpawN
Like Dustcan said. A laptop’s major advantage is in its portability.

Like Dustcan also implied; Laptops run HOT.
Desktops with ample space for airflow, the possibility for beefy heatsinks or liquid cooling and multiple larger fans means you’re most likely going to have a cooler and quieter system.

A cooler system also means more room to squeeze more performance out of your components. Laptop hardware are also usually nerfed to make sure they don’t melt from being cramped into a super tight chassis.

It’s been quite clear for awhile that Dan and Justin do whatever they feel like with the show.

I checked out after season 3.

@CaptainXtra
More like Dan does whatever he wants is what I’ve been hearing Justin just does voice work and doesn’t seem to be involved in any writing part.

The way I hear it basically amounts to Harmon pushes plots to follow his “story circle” because it’s clever or whatever, while Roiland comes into meetings late and drunk and just says to slap testicles on everything before he blacks out.

It’s why only people with high IQs can comprehend the genius of everything having testicles in Rick and Morty.

Black Panther Wakanda Forever is really good

@Kiryu-Chan
Agreed.

Hell, I have recently seen it in theatres.

If you think about it, Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure and Castlevania has surprisingly similar setups.

They both more or less follow a family lineage in their feud against a vampire who’s rarely more than one or 2 steps removed from the current antagonist of the iteration.

A battle between Drac and Dio would be interesting.

Not sure who would win that fight. The world would lose, hard.

@Zincy
i quess it depends if drac has counters to the world’s timestop or not as i feel that could be a gamechanger either way.

@Vortaxonus
Give me a sec, Castlevania bosses often resist time stops from the watch so if Draco can then I think he has this fight,

No one can defeat MR. IMMUNE TO THE PLOT!

@Thanotos Omega
He seems to be immune to time stops, combined with his lack of overt weakness to ice and physical trauma teleportation and fire based ranged attacks I think Dracula is the solid pick here,

Props to peopke who are still enjoying Pokemon but after knowing about Scarlet and Violet’s technical problems, I can’t for the life of me go back to loving this franchise again. I can’t believe Gamefreak would release its own version of GTA Trilogy Definitive Edition and while Rockstar can’t get away with it, Gamefreak probably can. When can we get a Pokemon game launch without problems?

Honestly the only good thing is these glitches are simply hilarious. I actually wouldn’t want them to be patched for the laughs.

@Just Wayne
Its not gamefreak’s fault, Its The Pokemon Company who forces them to barf a new game every 2-3 years or even shorter.
A new game means new pokemons and new pokemons means new merchandise (the new starters plushies where on sale like a month before the game came out) and while pokemon is the highest grossing franchise ever almost all of that money comes from the merchandise, not the games

@Background Pony #02EE
How FOX BS&P let that slide is beyond me.

Given the current news of Yuji Naka and Chris-Chan, i want to see a buddy comedy movie where by sheer coincidence they both end up sharing the same jail cell together, and both of them work together to break out of jail.

@icicle wicicle 1517
Chan and Naka: Escape from the Supermax.

@icicle wicicle 1517
what did chris do?

@Angrybrony
raped his mom.

@Angrybrony
May I direct you to this thread dedicated on old Chris?

@Kolbjorn
Unfortunately, that is the standard of Pokemon going forward. It’s now more fun to watch the anime and play the card games than play the actual mainline games. I don’t even care anymore. I just want a new Pokemon Mystery Dungeon.
