Yep, a lot of the preliminary reviews, based on the 15 minutes gameplay Bethesda showcased, consist of the game having similarities with Mass Effect, No Man's Sky, Destiny, and Star Citizen

I guess there is only so many ways to draw "futuristic buildings" which apparently all have to be unnecessarily tall because there is only a couple of rooms per floor.

If it cant be realistically engineered to work, its a futuristic building.

Totally agree.

Wow! A release date. Who would guessed.

Having just watched the Starfield clip I'm again thinking I want a new pc.
Something that irks me, just a little (because it's just a game), is the inane comments by npc baddies. From the clip "your're going to pay for that!".
I liked the bit from the clip "you can choose your own crew". Cool, a crew of 15 females based entirely on physical attributes. And because one can build one's own spaceship it would be unfortunate if there was only one sleep pod.

Final Fantasy VII: Crisis Core is coming to PC LETS GOOOOO!!

Dadhawk · 06-17-2022, 09:45 AM

I haven't played a true PC game in about 4 months now. Spending way too much time playing the Arcade build I mentioned above. Played all the way through some arcade games that would have been impossible (for me) in a real arcade.

An example, Smash TV, would have taken me probably $50 to play all the way through 1 quarter at a time.

Unfortunately, I discovered you can't configure the software to alternate between an arcade joystick/button setup and a game controller. That makes playing old console games impossible. So, now I'm thinking of setting off on a second build that would use PS4 or Xbox controllers connected to a PC for playing old Atari, Coleco, and NES, SNES, N64 and Gameboy games.

I still need to build my VR FlightSim setup as well.

I may have to retire now just to have time for my video game addiction.

Only PC gaming I do are sims. iRacing mostly. A little DIRT Rally, sure would be nice if they'd give the F1 game a mouse friendly interface. Need to try ACC.

Im a miner 30 GPU's all my cards are run efficiently with voltage and core underclocked as much as possible. And replace all Memory thermal pads with better quality ones to keep temps low. And I have 4 year old Polaris cards that have been non-stop mining since then with no issues.

Its like buying a used car you can buy a high mileage car that has been taken care of and get many more miles out of it. Or buy from a junkie that ran it into the ground.

It's a matter of principal.

You'd have to be truly desperate to not buy a new GPU. Hell, you can even upgrade from what you initially wanted to buy. A brand new 3080 at MSRP these days is a steal, and you'd be set for some good time.
