I haven’t kept up with them in ages since act 2, had no idea dear hunter still played.

It was rough this year for me, felt like I was waiting for a thing I honestly liked to come out, Falco from Future of the Left was gunna do a new Mclusky album, but he ended up getting some serious ear infection and cancelled his entire tour, don’t even think he can feel good enough to keep up with the new album (singer from shellac that has a studio) that was gunna get recorded in NA.

Was lucky to get that Oxbow live album tho, getting a quality performance with gold recording plus crazy horns was nuts. If future albums with them don’t have saxophone stuff mixed in I will be bummed as hell. Can’t even go back to shit on the previous albums, it feels like I’m missing something.

I did get lucky with my fav band tho, pile had a new album in February and it’s a fresh breath of air for me. Usually they do stuff to be accurate to how they sound live, true instrumental stuff. But because of Covid and the front man being sorta restricted over the time, he’s sorta getting out of his comfort zone. I didn’t expect them to do an album that felt like a listener only experience, but it turns out after 2 years of solo tours this dude figured out how to make that work. I don’t normally like studio stuff that seems like you can only make it work in production, but this shit is great. Fav bit is how they are doing industrial drumming stuff, it’s the little shit, sounds like they got a 2nd drummer banging on a build site for a new skyscraper.

Grape owns the old school shotgun pocket category, don’t care if the meta changed, that man was a damn monster.

website looks really clean btw, nice work.

He will only show up if you save his name 3 times in front of your monitor.

Any of you guys had any luck playing longer then like a hour or two with this gpu hangup crash shit? Longest I’ve gone maxed out on a 3070 without rtx has been about two-ish hours, and that was on the 28th before the launch. I’d play at lower settings, and maybe it’s because I’m stuck at 1080p up-scaled on 27inchs, this game is not comfortable at lower settings for me, it’s hard to read and see long distance stuff, environments clashed hard visually.

Could suggest a lot, could even reference that thread you wanted some actual feedback, but if real stuff is more important, if it actual has fruit, go for it. You don’t need to say you’re retiring. Taking a break is always important, you’re extremely young and anything is possible in your freetime. I’ve been an ass, extremely critical after said thread, only because you ignored an entire community on this site being vocal, constructive, giving actual feedback.

If had to sum it up, focus on what’s ahead of you, if you think your extra time is worth the progress as a gamer, keep playing. Would rather see you come back and be more constructive, less with this entitled bullshit with you being young and being able grow in the scene just because you have that time. Taking a break is extremely healthy, lets you grow and retrospect. If you don’t come back it’s fine, only take away you can have is the idea that in the end you enjoyed yourself.

Been managing about 120 fps, mins it’s been rough, usually maxed out on 3070 ti / Alden Lake i5
Honesty surprised so far, I know it will get better.

Titan Fall had such potential honestly https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=9lUoA9q0jnM

Why loose weight when it won’t loose you

Option 3: good bud.

Crazy how it’s a repeat of the same issues despite 2 previous games.

yeaa, the load times are pretty bad, finished the start of the game / prison break thing, got into the hub world and did the tutorials, the cut scene following up from that cases the game to crash every single time despite the game itself running pretty well (I did have to turn ray-tracing off due to performance drops). Hopefully whatever is causing it will get fixed.
