Computer games.

Hi lads just checking in with an update on my rig. I have now slipped in a Radeon 9800 Pro to get a few juicy extra frames and tidied up my cable management so that's it's more spaghetti function than spaghetti junction haha.

You would have to justify the decision.

The 2070 Super in my rig plays pretty much anything I want to play in 5760x1080 at 60 fps. If I wanted to play Cyberpunk, not so much.

I also once bought an entire PS1 to play FF7, and built a whole rig for the first time to play Oblivion at 60 fps, so it's your call. Didn't regret either decision.

They've just bumped it up by £50 hahahaha. I was siding against not buying it anyway. I think £850 is my limit.

I *think* that was the card in the interim rig I bought from another builder between buying a real desktop for the first time in 2001 (some GeForce 2 flavor) and the Oblivion rig.

I know that the Oblivion rig had a 7900 GT in it, and that I couldn't max the settings out (not that anything could at the time, IIRC). I know this in part because it remains my x32 compatibility rig for old-school stuff all these years later.

I have never played a strategy game. I only ever play RPG games, fantasy ones. I'm looking at three games in particular and all three interest me (even though they are very fantasy-lite) but they are set to a medieval backdrop.

1) Crusader Kings III
2) Battle Brothers
3) Mount and Blade: Bannerlords

Anyone got got any experience with these games. Are they any good, one better than the others?

Crusader kings 3 is very grueling but satisfying once you're able to attain a competence in the game. Managing your royal family is quite addicting so much drama and cool tales emanate from the nobles everyday happenings. I saw a poster mention ck2 since it's free as a starting point, which is a solid suggestion as there's mods that allow you play in Westeros, maybe that would appeal to you since you're into fantasy games.
 
Anyone getting Dying Light 2? It’s out on Friday. I remember playing the first on PC a few years ago and thought it was pretty good so may give this one a go- if reviews are good

Wanted a blast on Dark Souls 2 or 3 and they've turned off the servers for multiplayer because Elden Ring is coming out. They should turn back on after it's release but it's a bit of a ball ache. I can't afford Elden Ring yet but maybe I can stretch ffs.

That's not why they were turned off at all. They were hacked.

got both but never really got into CK3; CK2 on the other hand is very addictive and much more fun

I found ck2's interface less welcoming and accessible than CK3, even though the vast content available on Ck2 easily surpasses the third one. I think in time CK3 can compete with 2 in regards to gameplay depth but currently its just way too early, as CK2 has like a decades worth of expanded material. But with the upgrade in graphics and just the improvement in navigating the game I prefer CK3, even though some scenarios become increasingly repetitious
