  • There's something about Ys VIII that impresses me: load times.

    VIII for me isn't bad, just load times are weird, they can be instant or can take ages, don't know how it is for you, but because of how seemingly random they were it kinda killed it for me, sometimes it'd load in less than a second, others would load in like 40 seconds and it really was random, on PC at least.

    Oh, well, I am playing it on the Switch not sure if it makes any difference, but it is instantaneous, it kind of tries to show up one of this "hint" banners during loading and you can't get to read anything because it's already gone.

    Damn, anhedonia is killing me today. I hope tomorrow I can enjoy. Meh. Some days feel bad even if they are good.

    Same here, just boredom would be fine, but as someone who suffers from anhedonia in general, bad days are especially annoying to get through...

    You've taught me a new word, I think this describes me as well. Keep up the good fight brethren.

    Good stuff, been wanting to replay it and Celceta too, but just can't get into the right mood for Ys... Just used to PSP versions for Ys games and shifting to PC feels weird lol

    I'm playing it on switch. A bit aliased, a bit choppy, but portable. Still I'm not sure if I should've got it on PS4 instead.

    The charm of Ys for me has always been the portability since all the Ys games up until ζ (seven) are fully playable on the PSP, with only exception being Origins. For the more recent ones, PC has the superior versions in my opinion though, not PS4, PC ports are just that well done! Although you sorta need a controller to get the full experience out of it, keyboard with Ys is a match made in hell:P
    Getting old... I'm playing Witcher 3 about 2 meters away from my 55" TV and I still have problems reading the text.

    Wash your eyes with that little plant that sleeps the moment you touch it in any way, the one that where the leaves close from either side for a while.

    Getting old... I'm playing most of the recent Total War games about 2mm away from my 24" monitor and I still have problems reading the text. /s

    If you don't get the joke, TW for whatever reason have RIDICULOUSLY tiny character fonts in some games (like UNDER 4)!
    It is always remarkable, what you recognize some users here immediately. This is really an outstanding feature,where you have been immediately recognized ............. SO: ON ...... :-)))

    My "SMART TV" went dumb to the point of rebooting all the time, so there goes gaming this weekend. Ordered an LG C9, hope it lasts longer.

    It catched a bootloop? I guess some hardware test failed. Have you tried to use a vaccum cleaner and isopropyl alcohol inside?
    sarkwalvein

    Nope, all I tried to do was factory reset and firmware update, but it reboots seconds after entering the maintenance menu. I think it might be fixable, the screen is in good condition, but I don't have time to put into it really, so I am trying to find some friend or neighbor that would be willing to get it for free if they want to fix them for themselves.

    There must be nothing so punishing as dying on Witcher 3 on the Xbox One and being forced to endure a 3 minutes load screen to play again.

    When did we get to the point where games on a console "stop responding" and you need to reboot and go through 30 minutes check ups to play.

    Just Witcher 3 on the old Xbox One. I got it several years ago and now I wanted to play it... but oh well, I guess it is to be expected of an old dusty console, perhaps the HDD is dying.

    Hmmm... FPS and responsiveness are bad, not sure if a problem of my console.
    Hmm... I liked these 2 episodes of Beastars too much. Weird thing. I think it's what I am enjoying the most this season.

    Now I hate Netflix even more, paying for their service yet having to go out of my way to avoid the region locking to watch this series.
    And that's how a Sunday late finds me thinking how can it be I have no coffee cookies around at all... Damn cookie monster. Need cookie!

    Haven't you got 24 shops in Germany?

    Not sure about Germany as a whole, but at least in this city not only there are no 24 shops, also nothing opens on Sundays at all.

    Good lord, that sucks. I have never lived in a city where there were no 24 hour shops. And the only thing that used to be closed on sundays here were liquor stores - but they've even changed that now.
    I hate colds. That time of the year again.

    Es gibt halt keine "Übergangszeit" mehr.....von 22 auf 5 Grad und das soll man dann auch noch "aushalten....
    Dann noch die "virenversprühenden " Kollegen (Krankenstand geht ja heutzutag nicht mehr,da Angst um Arbeitsplatz) und kränkelnden Kinder im Umfeld,die Armen werden in jedem Zustand in die öffentlichen Einrichtungen gepfercht...das passt dann so richtig....
    Wünsch Dir gute Besserung und baldige Genesung. :-)

    I couldn't resist it. I just saw a remaining unsold limited edition of Astral Chain on my local Saturn and 100€ flew away from my pocket.

    well actually
    a new console won't do anything right now, because the games are still in development, that's why there are few games being released
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it won't make the games finish any faster
  • Veho @ Veho:
    2/3rds of launch titles for the Switch 2 will just be lazy ports of Switch games anyway.
