    For one, its all fun and games, for the other its life or death; a fight for survival. I'm just glad that a movie that was finished and apparently very good isn't just put to the torch by a greedy, inept, soulless company as a tax break. heres hoping that it gets the accolades it deserves...

    April 2025 General Game Discussion

    So thoughts on the new Humble choice? Some good games, but i think nothing worth rushing in to get it. The one game is probably alien: dark descent but not worth getting the bundle. Tomb Raider 1-3 Remastered Dredge Alien: Dark Descent 1000XResist Nova Lands Diplomacy is Not an Option Distant...

    doesn't time fly, Asscreed valhalla i've clocked just over 80 hours and we're still no closer to beating the base game. I think we're over the halfway mark beating england, but we still have a few areas to go and some targets to gank. We still haven't gone into DLC or season pass content. So...

    I'm completely opposite, i'm not a huge AW fan but i am very fond of Fire emblem and played the hell out of the GBA ones. The DS ones were decidedly meh but i did like Fire Emblem: New Mystery of the Emblem: Heroes of Light and Shadow which takes place 1 year after the DS game and you get to...

    The art and photography thread (includes AI generated art)

    I've been a bit quiet on the art front as i'm currently stuck in training mode, but screw it another place to upload my stuff. For all my good artwork we see on the topic https://forums.pcgamer.com/threads/paint-the-game.3325/page-3, there are dozens if not more sketches and trash as i spend the...

    What do you keep your mouse DPI at for shooters. Is it different for different types of games?

    Honestly i stick to just one setting and its 4000dpi. Sure, i can change it on the fly, hell i have a trigger thing that reduces the sensitivity without needing to increase/decrease it. The only problem is that the designers made that flappy thing too short, so my thumb never makes use of...

    March 2025 General Game Discussion Thread

    I think the problem was that the controls/mechanics were just horrible. i struggled to make adjustments etc. in real life i would be more gentle in stacking the stones etc, here i mostly just slam the stones down and watching them all roll away is horrible. there was one collectible that...

    March 2025 General Game Discussion Thread

    A bit of an update on asscreed valhalla one of my challenges is to balance rocks at a certain height. So far most of them are easy peasy, but this one was rather annoying as i had to manage the iffy controls and dodge physics to succeed. Sure enough i managed to complete the challenge, but this...

    progress in Assassins creed valhalla has seemed to stalled on my part. Sure, we're making some progress slowly completing areas but i've currently in the jovik area and whilst i've done all the stuff there, i'm exploring the outside walls which is proving a lot more tedious as its expansive. I...
