    Vapourware Codexian Game Development Thread

    The font and the health bar in the combat screen clashes with the art style and the character's head needs more work. I know this is work in progress, but just to make sure you know since most people won't give you proper feedback in game development communities.

    Unread messages time window is too short

    Thanks. This seems to work. Never had to do this on any of the 8-10 different forums I have visited regularly over the years, but I am glad that this is available and the site just doesn't go full Biden.

    Grand Theft Auto V - Released on PC

    Samuel Jackson and the late Chris Penn also pull standout performances as Tenpenny and Pulaski which really helps in making the characters more memorable. GTA V and especially GTA IV has a big problem of having many completely forgettable antagonists.

    Unread messages time window is too short

    I have noticed that the time window for this site remembering my unread messages on threads is annoyingly short. It is a known fact that this feature takes a lot of resources on a server and many older sites restrict threads to 500 pages to prevent the forum from slowing down too much. However...

    Obsidian General Discussion Thread

    Oh, they definitely got their bag. Obsidian's only future is working on design-by-committee trash at the Microsoft Game Pass gulag. Avowed already looks like a promising start.

    Obsidian General Discussion Thread

    I have worked as an IT consultant my whole work career and I know exactly what this means. It is a dysfunctional company where the ivory tower leadership lords over the technical staff. A deep divide exists within the company. This is often characterized by lofty and misaligned internal...

    Grand Theft Auto V - Released on PC

    Finally got around pirating this since it was the only mainline GTA I hadn't played yet. Funny how the PC port was praised at release since it runs like garbage on modern hardware and the load times are atrocious. This seems to be a problem especially on AMD CPUs based on some Reddit...

    Good gaming channels on Youtube?

    Beginning with rote and meta-commentary filled overstatements is a big pet peeve of mine in essay writing and it is very common in this space. It is also one of the things people should have learned to avoid if they put this much effort into creating very long videos. Of course, one of the...

    Starfield - Epic Shit Takes from Bethestards

    You are wrong. This game was 25 years in the making.

    Anime Your Unpopular Gaming Opinions

    Just like with fast travel, once you give the players the option, it influences the design of the whole game.

    Good gaming channels on Youtube?

    YouTube is such a pile of garbage. Channels should be able to make separate release lists for their content and I should be able to only subscribe to a particular list if I wanted to. I should also be able to differentiate between my topics of interest and make different subscription views based...

    Good gaming channels on Youtube?

    The "scene" definitely could do with a bit of cross-pollination. The problem with books is that it is not a visual medium so getting B-roll for your video is impossible and the problem with movies (and music) is the whole dystopic copyright system YouTube has. I sometimes wonder how big of a...

    Rauniot - isometric post-apocalyptic adventure set in Finland

    Wow, this came out of nowhere. Not that many modern games with Finnish audio besides My Summer Car.
