Mate started a smallish video games company that has had some ok releases. Enough to pay off his house anyways and take about 5 family holidays a year. There’s quite a big indie scene apparently and he always suggests these mad niche games.

Indie studios are where it is at atm. Triple AAA not so much for the most part

ME2 was a horrible experience on the hardest difficulty, but glad I have finally fully completed this epic series.

I should probably finish Indiana Jones then I guess.

It kind of bored me though...

Just replayed the first BioShock - a very fitting game for the state of the world right now. Honestly, one of the greatest stories in gaming history and arguably the most powerful critique of Objectivism in any art form.

Hard not to see the similarities between Andrew Ryan and a certain someone…

BioShock 2 next

I'm seriously sick guys. I want nothing else but to slash ghouls and alghouls and sell tons of shitty swords in Novigrad. Anybody knows if there is cure?

1.2m players (and counting) so far on Steam for the latest Monster Hunter. Hype!

I can't really comment on build quality these days, as I haven't had a gaming laptop for a long time. What I can comment on is specs. And tbf, most of those seem a bit underwhelming to me. I am curious why 16Gb is still the standard. More and more games are gobbling up both RAM and VRAM.

But with a mobile 4060 (just for gaming) pretty much any of the CPU's in those links are fine. If you want to do a bit of video stuff on the side, then as many cores (AMD) or P-Cores (Intel) is what you want.

And personally, factoring in battery performance in a gaming laptop is redundant. We are talking differences of 70 minute vs 80 minute life gaming (if that) If you aren't gaming on the go, then make use of those powerplans, and make sure you are set to all the power saving features when not plugged in!

The deal breaker in battery life on a laptop is if it has integrated graphics as well as a dedicated graphics card onbroad. If you're just web browsing, use the integrated then switch to the dedicated whilst gaming etc. Makes a fair bit of difference.

Ended up getting Kingdom Come Deliverance 2. Enjoying it but the save system has ruined the experience.

Twice I've had 2 hours of progress ruined, once cause it froze and another cause I died in a random encounter.

I feel games not having autosaves or checkpointing in this day and age is ridiculous tbh. Literally no one wants to see 2 hours of progress deleted
