Which is?

I’m asking for 2 reasons: 1st is that I simply don’t know which one you’re talking about as I’ve seen different interpretations of that word. 2nd is that I don’t think people would be arguing as much if the definition was that clear-cut.

Apparently, the performance in the game is miles better than what’s in the spec requirements

But I agree. What the hell were they thinking with that 15 to 30 FG?

With NMS, there was also a case of massive overpromising. It’s a fuckup of Sean Murray, which he did learn a lot from, so kudos to him.

Afaik, what happened is they had certain systems being developed that were planned to be in the game but ultimately got cut. He, on the other hand, was talking to the media as if they were coming. That all was technically not a lie, because at the time they were coming. But if you cut them before release, it sure as hell will result in a massive disappointment. And it sure doesn’t help that they lied about multi-player being in the game after the release.

Many of the systems did eventually come with updates. Nowadays, it’s pretty much the game they promised.

It has its issues, but I don’t regret playing it. It was fun, and I still hop on sometimes to check out new expeditions.

Oh, it’s already been more than a year since Destiny players hopped to Warframe.

Destiny 2’s online has not been what it used to be for quite a while now. And why would it be when Bungie managed to break the main gameloop and then proceed to not fix it until literally the final update of the game?

Personally, I call such studios AA. They are too large to be indies, yet to small to be AAA.

Expedition 33 creators, for example, would also fall under AA, even though they’re a very young studio.

Indie, to me, would be a studio of a couple people, of a one single team. Like with the creators of Hollow Knight. So, it’s about internal structure rather than budgets or involvement of publishers.

In addition to Vampire Survivors:

Holocure

Fun fact, The Forgotten City was originally a Skyrim mod.

And I gotta say, the story in that one was impeccable.

Out of curiosity, is there any other reason for 128GB other than “just to max it out”?

Because if you don’t actually need it, you’d get better performance with 64GB or 48GB due to being able to use higher clock speeds. (Depends on the CPU)

Let me just, ahem

1-2+3/(3+3)×2+3×6/3 = 1-2+3/(3+3)×2+1×6 = 1-2+3/(3+3)×2+6 = 7-2+3/(3+3)×2 = 7-2+3/(6+6) = 7-2+(1/2+1/2) = 5+(1/2+1/2) = 5+1=6

Ahh, yes, DMAMDSBA :P

Let’s just say BODMAS/PEMDAS isn’t all end-all be-all. They’re good, but there’s also better

For those interested, see: basic number properties

enter it into any calculator and you should get 9

Have you tried it, though? My Casio says it’s 1

That’s because it treats 2(1+2) as 2x and not 2*x

It’s called juxtaposition and is the reason why people find this notation ambiguous. Some people account for it, some not. Same with calculators. The scientific ones are most likely to give you an answer of 1

Edit: Look, this one even warns you about the implicit multiplication

Usually, no sign before the bracket means juxtaposition. Scientific calculators do account for it (not all, tho), while regular ones may not.

So 2(1+2) is really (2+4)

Compare 2/2x and 2/2×X where x is (1+2)

The first is 2/(2+4)=1/3, the second is (2/2)×(1+2)=3

Basically, either 1 or 9 can be considered correct. And yes, it’s ambiguous.

Also, there’s no real rule about solving left to right due to associative and commutative properties: 1×2×3 = 1×(2×3) = (1×2)×3 = 3×1×2 = 2×1×3 = 6

Do I hear a “steamdeck upgrade”?

Sure hope so.

This screams: “I don’t want to parent my kids, so let the government do it instead, and do it to me too along the way.”

Do you really not see how that takes away your own agency? Both in terms of raising your kids and your own privacy.

Clearly should’ve used cbat

Why not?

It’s something that benefits both Android and Apple users by removing unnecessary restrictions.

• Cooler:

Instead of Deepcool, I’d look at Thermalright. They have options that are cheaper yet perform better, including 360mm liquid coolers.

As for the Arctic Freezer, it’s going to be an overkill, but having a nearly silent build is nice. Do be aware that it’s much easier to mess up a liquid cooler installation than air. Essentially, always put screws through fans first (otherwise you’ll damage the radiator) and never tighten them (otherwise, you’ll strip the threading, even with hands), if they hold the fans, that’s enough tightness. Except for the CPU screws, those are the same as with Air coolers.

Overall, for your first build, I’d recommend going for an Air cooler and only then switching to liquid if you feel it’s needed. Temperature-wise you should be fine with either, 9700x isn’t that power hungry, and something like Thermalright PA 120 was doing just fine with my 5900x (although in a colder climate)

• PSU:

Don’t know about this MSI model, but I can recommend Xpg Core Reactor II 850W. There’s also a II VE version, but it’s a bit worse. Should be roughly the same price, but I can guarantee that this one is very reliable.

Also, always check in with the PSU Tier list from ZTT. With this build I recommend going for tier B or higher. The XPG II one is the highest tier.

• Bottlenecks and such

It’s a balanced build, nothing else to say. Good job picking the parts. I personally may have gone for a CPU like 7800x3d, but that depends solely on your needs.

I don’t see how that would be the case.

PEGI is used as a way of informing buyers (parents) about the contents of the game.

It doesn’t prohibit them from allowing their kids to play, say, an R-18 game. The agency’s still there. It’s not like a mandatory age verification where your kids are disallowed from using the service completely even when you yourself allow them to.

Guess I won’t be bying that one.

What a shame, and I actually wanted to.

Ironic, considering the trailer is one of the things that was heavily criticized.

It looked very generic and didn’t tell you much about the game.

I believe it was also revealed at some point that it was thrown together in a very short period of time because they didn’t expect to need it then.

Wabajjack mod lists are deffinetly a must try, something like Enderal or LoreRim

I’d also check out a game called “The forgotten city”. Haven’t played it myself, but I did play the Skyrim mod it was based off of, and the story was solid, I liked it a lot. Or just try the mod itself.
