    F.E.A.R. Series

    Thanks for this! I have been playing throu Extraction Point recently and had some framerate issues. I thought I just had the settings too high for my rig, but now I'll try this. I should have known to check PC gaming wiki! On the game, F.E.A.R. holds up, graphics and gameplay, without any...

    Where do you usually buy games?

    Fanatical.com's bundles are definitely the biggests discounts you can get on games, only problem being if the bundles they're currently running have anything interesting to you. Although, as steep as the discounts are, it can sometimes be worth it to buy a whole bundle just for one or two games...

    The last game you completed

    I finished TimeShift earlier this week. It doesn't get talked about much but I really enjoyed it, its like a weird fusion of F.E.A.R. and Half-Life 2. Awesome FPS combat with good weapons and enemies and the time changing abilities and neat little puzzles/obstacles to get through with them in...

    Do you ever "cheese it"?

    I had to resort to cheese to get past the final room of the Dimension of the Past Quake mission pack recently. Low on health and ammo and 2 shamblers and a vore between myself and the final slipgate. I ran under the bridge where the shamblers pathfinding would break and they would stay above...

    Demos—post game demos here

    I played this a while back, and the demo recently got significantly expanded, so much it feels like its more than a demo now. Its basically a first-person Hotline Miami, and its awesome. https://squidcor.itch.io/anger-foot

    Nvidia Image Scaling vs In-game resolution scale

    Saw that nVidia released this feature in a driver update recently and its apparently similar to AMD's FSR, but I don't understand exactly how either of these are different from the feature in many newer games allowing you to set an "internal resolution" that the game renders at and then...

    Let's talk about Epic Games Store.

    A thought I had with regards to what Epic might offer customers that nowhere else does currently is I guess not entirely related to PC gaming. With Epic taking on Apple in court over platform control, it seems to me that the next logical step is launching their store on mobile platforms. It...

    Let's talk about Epic Games Store.

    Aside from launcher overload (which is its own issue), I don't have any real issue with EGC. Feature-wise, its of course not as robust as Steam, but none of the other storefronts/launchers are. And, I mean, who doesn't like free stuff? I have bought a few things on EGC, most notably World War...

    The last game you completed

    I liked it, mostly better than the base game I'd say. Gets a little slow with waiting on and listening to NPCs, but at least you're not getting constantly body blocked by Barney like in the base game. I'd say it still holds up without me having personal nostalgia or it having the "wow" factor...

    The last game you completed

    Half-Life 2: Episode 1. I've been playing a lot of older shooters I never got the chance to play.

    FOV—Field of View, what do you recommend?

    I typically like 110 degrees horizontal. Its usually one of the first things I change, I find it difficult to play at low FoV, I feel tunnel-visioned and kinda have difficultly navigating the environment.

    Question Why do you play video games?

    LOL, lotta Stardew Valley, huh?

    What are your favorite PC Puzzle games?

    That reminds me I really need to go back and finish Talos Principle and Antichamber. In the realm of FPP puzzle games I also thought Qube was pretty good, and I heard the sequel was better.

    Weekend Question: Which PlayStation-exclusive do you want on PC next?

    I'm a sucker for a sci-fi fps, so I'd like to be able to play the Resistance and Killzone franchises.

    What gamepad/controller options are out there beyond the standard XB/PS ones?

    Thanks for the suggestion, I looked and they actually have an interesting looking design with a touchpad, unfortunately its only for mobile devices for some reason: https://www.gamesir.hk/collections/gamepads/products/gamesir-g5. I would like a controller which could be used with a...
