Every creator was sadly reviewing this on its release saying how bad it was. Now all the follow up reviews are like "actually its pretty good and its the machine ive always wanted". Where was that energy on release

I mostly keep it docked and I capped to 1080p and let my TV upscale it. Its ok for what I use it for but it struggles on some 3d games. I havent noticed any issues switching between docked and undocked.

Ai is becoming a very good tool in the.software industry. I think people are going to have to really consider their AI stance and really hone in on what they actually find to be the unethical parts because it will be so widespread and you need to fight against its parts instead of it as a whole.

For me the copyright asymmetry and hostile integration with existing life. I dont want to live in a world where openAI can train a model off all works but i can't do the same. I dont want openAI to scrape every website relentlessly while I get blocked from scraping any large website.

For power usage I dont care. Thats a local government issue. They choose to let an ai data center drive up costs and water usage then they suck and I'll hate them for approving that. Theres plenty of places to put a data center where power isnt an issue.

For art Its awful because its trained unconsensually off artists works and two because it has no intention behind its creation. Ive come to believe that the reason we appreciate art is because of the human intention that goes into its creation. Thats why there is objectively bad art that we resonante with more than a perfect still life because the artist has a story alongside the piece and gives it unique value that ai could never truely replicate.

This is why I can accept AI usage in software development and still hate AI. If its built off an open source model its fine but i dont want to support development using these closed source models and end up in a world where american megacorps control the tools to create software.

Ive played forza 4 on it and its playable but if its docked and in 1080p it won't be a good experience. Idk if my standards are to high from years of PC gaming. You won't get 60fps and thats one of the games you really want nice reflections and high frames.

If you want to play forza take a look at the legion go S if you can find one for cheap

Recently I got a decent sized skyrim modpack running as easy as on windows using jackify( an install wrapper for wabbajack). It was actually amazing how simple it was. I thought it was going to be the final boss of linux modding.

The community tools are doing a great job bridging the gap

Because i already have squad and the games are 1hr which is manageable. I cannot manage 7hr arms games

How can they do a 2025 review when its still 2025? These reviews are getting earlier and earlier. Its becoming like the 2k games where you are buying 2k26 in the middle of 2025.

I'm one bad life event away from buying arma reforger. Please God be good to me next year. I cannot handle an arma addiction right now.

I like the Gordon alyx dunk intro. It goes so hard

Yes, there is still an active 1k players on. You probably wont find anyone on the low or mid level content but when you get to end game there is a lot of people to do the group content with.

Its still 120 ping and feels bad for PvP or interupt/prot

My friends are excited and want to do a play through for the first time. I was super hyped but i realised it doesnt add or change anything so that killed my hype instantly. I really need AU servers to enjoy the game again. High ping just sucks so badly in gw1.

This got me so excited because i thought the game was being remastered or reignited. I'm happy they are making steamdeck based improvements because its a great steamdeck mmo. But most of the stuff I already had through gwtoolbox so i appreciate the gesture of support.

Yeah but thats on a 720p screen not on a 1080p+ TV. Steamdeck can't even do darksouls 1 on a 1080p display without being sub 60fps.

Yeah I pray it has a decent experience for modern games and isnt just an indie game box.

Dam you can rename communities? Thats an awesome feature.

Hype hype hype hype. I am getting a steam frame and putting it om my shelf!

Larain is just aura farming at this point. They dont need to do half the shit they do but the choose go do it anyway.

Plenty of games require over 16gb when playing modded. Rimworld and cities skylines are two.
