Video Game General

@HJSDGCE  
Fair enough.
 
@PonyPon  
I misread what you said. My apologies.

Carmageddon TDR 2000 (which is currently free on GOG to promote Carmageddon: Max Damage) is apparently the worst game in the series. The kicker: The GOG page is completely upfront about it.
 

High end video game GPUs are pricier than ever apparently. If the cause was the cryptocurrency mining, hopefully that dies down soon. I would like a PC that can play more modern games.
 
I mean I do have a PS3 and a bunch of games waiting to be played, but… I don’t know. For some reason I don’t feel a big motivation for it at the moment. Did Ghosts and Devil’s Cartel tax that much outta me?

@Josh103  
I’m not seeing these high prices. A 1070 costs $379 which is the norm for that tier. And it’s a damn good card, too.

@Mike  
I didn’t see them either when I checked a few days ago, but most were sold out. I haven’t checked today.
 
My computer probably can’t even support that card without changing the power supply. I wanted a Radeon HD 6970, but that card is dated by now and also huge.
 
Everything about my PC is relatively decent except the card. I wanted to build my own PC all those years ago but that’s probably not going to happen.

@Mike  
Newegg says otherwise.

@SonGokuMonkey  
I know I saw one for the suggested msrp.

The problem with RPGs is all the faffing around between the story.

@Dashu  
I wish they gave Carmagedon 1 instead.

@gingerninja666  
The real problem is how much it’s often needed, if you just organiclly go off doing side quests for fun that’s one thing but many RPGs force you to grind side activities by locking them away after certain points in the story or forcing you to grind outside of the story to keep up with it’s level,

@Thanotos Omega  
I usally have problem with not enough exp and levels what you can get from side quests and activities and often my character or team become really OP.

@gingerninja666  

 
Or when you play Bethesda RPGs where most of the game IS “faffing around between the story.”

@Nightweaver20xx  
Massive open world filled with stuff is the feature not a bug,

I think people should enjoy both “hard” and “easy” games, the former for a rewarding challenge, and the latter to relax after a hard day.

@Meanlucario  
this is why we have difficulty levels,
 
“Man i’m bored guess i will crank this shit up to chaos!”
 
“I AM SO FUCKING PISSED! FUCK IT! I GONNA WRECK THESE DIGITAL FOOLS!”

@Thanotos Omega  
I personally prefer a combo of Dark Souls and Pokemon, plus some Fire Emblem and TF2.

@Thanotos Omega  
Dark Souls doesn’t need difficulty levels, git gud or play something else~

How the hell do you use stimpacks while in power armor? No, I mean like, how do you inject them when you’re covered in metal?

@Nightweaver20xx  
Clearly there is a port for them on the armor. :P

@Nightweaver20xx  
Well considering the prototype medic armor is the same shape as the normal types, it’s possible the armor has spots to inset the stem packs and then draws form them for it’s own built in injectors,

@Mike  
How would you even make an “easy mode” for Dark Souls?
 
@Nightweaver20xx  
The weak part at the neck. It’s soft for you to move around in it easily.

@Meanlucario  
Reduce enemy damage a bit(More chances to learn the patterns on each attempt) and remove the silly death penalties,(No delays between tries and reduced grinding,)

@Thanotos Omega  
Looks around  
What death penalties? It’s no worst than other games, and you don’t lose progress unless you don’t learn. Plus, unless your build requires to grind or you’re relying too much on character numbers, the souls you get just by making progress should be enough.

@Thanotos Omega  
>remove the silly death penalties  
Given how humanity plays a part in a few mechanics, then removing the penalties would brake the game.
