@RustyCrab relax bro it "isnt much of an issue"

@RustyCrab lmao, the best part about this
if you do it too many times, denuvo will lock you out
cause every time you do it, denuvo considers it a "new install"

@zero stuff like that always gets mandated by business contracts written by people who are living on a different planet than the consumers. 0% chance its going away.

@RustyCrab @zero we need something like sweetbabydetected but for disgusting DRM

@icst @zero I found this with a quick search but its confusingly named https://store.steampowered.com/curator/26095454-Denuvo-Games/

@RustyCrab @icst @zero Doesn't steam already list Denuvo DRM on a game's store page? Having a curator for it seems redundant.

It'd be more useful to have a curator for listing games which don't crash / fail to start when Steam isn't running.

if you checked the page you'd see that's not always true

nikiboo,

@zero @RustyCrab back in dragons dogma 1 you could switch to hard mode and it would restart the whole game like a new save i wonder if thats still possible or are they gonna add hard mode later with the DLC like they did with dragons dogma dark arisen

nikiboo,

@zero @RustyCrab if u guys are wondering maxed out with a 1070 and a i7-7700 i can barely get 30FPS in the post tutorial area if i turn everything off and turn on super duper preference FFSR i can reach 60FPS but its not steady

nikiboo,

@RustyCrab @zero i wonder if using certain spells will cause massive frame dips like it did for dragons dogma back on the 360 and especially ps3 some spells pushed so many particular effects on screen it could turn the game into a slide show so im curious if that will happen again

nikiboo,

@RustyCrab @zero one thing i will say is the basic bitch sword and board vocation is a lot of fun and it seems like theres a lot more depth so gameplay wise it seems theres a lot to look forward too as for magic im not sure but if sorcerer is anything like dd1 it should be really flashy

@RustyCrab You can't make $100 million movies unless it's Marvel and expect to make money.

@RustyCrab Wasn't Synthetic Man all like "if this game is bad, AAA is dead to me".

Hillarious. I guess DLCs listed on store page are more honest than in-game cash shop? But clearly a retarded move from a PR standpoint lol.

@inertia @RustyCrab The dlcs were hidden until the game had dropped.

Zergling_man,

@RustyCrab It's been dead for a while.

RustyCrab,
@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@Zergling_man I'm honestly out of the loop on how dead. The only one I played recently was cyberpunk and I hated it. Keanu dick sucking simulator

Zergling_man,

@RustyCrab >the CP game

@RustyCrab@clubcyberia.co avatar

@Zergling_man it was technically competent but I played close to 8 hours and I am not kidding, 6 hours of that was waiting for dialogue trees to end.

@RustyCrab @Zergling_man I just started playing cyberpunk last weekend and it knocked my socks off, it's the best grand theft auto I have ever played. It's better than san andreas

Zergling_man,

@RustyCrab But yeah like... I don't think there's been a single AAA game in the last... Maybe even 10 years that hasn't launched without DLC on day 1, had some kind of major bug, some DRM controversy, woke shit, etc.

@RustyCrab @Zergling_man bro I played farcry 6 and it was so bad. 200gb of just shit man they absolutely had to have rpg elements with item rarity and special abilities fuck this shit man

@RustyCrab @Zergling_man video games aren't allowed to have art styles they must be photorealistic

@RustyCrab @Zergling_man seriously though that was my favorite part about pacific drive was how beautiful the game was. It had a lot of accessibility options too that let's you enable/disable certain aspects of the game so you could play it however you want. I highly recommend

fun fact: i remember someone on a linux place pointed out how they installed a game with obviously uncompressed textures, but they had BTRFS compression on, so the filesystem compressed the game to like 40% of its size :lmao:

icedquinn,
@icedquinn@blob.cat avatar

@mischievoustomato @RustyCrab @creamqueen @Zergling_man compressing game textures is woozy because the gpu doesn't speak jpeg-xl. you get a much worse compression rate, like 25%, with the compressors designed to work on GPUs.

there's basis universal that tries to do both. i haven't tried it but godot supports it now

mischievoustomato,
@mischievoustomato@rebased.taihou.website avatar

supposedly the way btrfs does it is transparent, stuff gets decompressed at run time

icedquinn,
@icedquinn@blob.cat avatar

@mischievoustomato @RustyCrab @creamqueen @Zergling_man it is but the underlying file has to be compressible in the first place.

mischievoustomato,
@mischievoustomato@rebased.taihou.website avatar

yeah, btrfs manages to do it anyway

icedquinn,
@icedquinn@blob.cat avatar

@mischievoustomato @RustyCrab @creamqueen @Zergling_man if the texture is completely uncompressed then it will be about equivalent to converting them all to PNGs, since that's literally what a PNG does. Maybe a few bytes bigger or smaller for zstd.

icedquinn,
@icedquinn@blob.cat avatar

@mischievoustomato @RustyCrab @Zergling_man @creamqueen i know dwarfs does an even more aggressive job; it does nilsimsa similarity hashing on blocks, so it sorts all of the blocks on the filesystem by how similar they are which then allows the zstd pass to be more aggressive.

but that's a thing made by a madman designed to store 200 perl installs. it's not something you can readily ship a game on.
