- Comment on Anything tempting you? 2 weeks ago:
I am patiently waiting for Kingdom deliverance to get released and a couple of weeks or months to see what the reviews say about the state of the game. Then I will decide whether to buy it or not.
Another two games on my radar are RDR 1 and Indiana Jones, Pentiment and Slay the Princes but waiting for better discounts on those.

Mad Max, a really cool and chill game and a no brainer for 2 bucks.
- Comment on Monthly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing? 2 months ago:
The story and the world are amazing. Combat is a bit clunky but not too bad.
- Comment on For me, Cyberpunk 2077 was uninteractive and has low replayablility value. 2 months ago:
Man, Witcher 3 is an amazing game and a lot of the secondary quests had a pretty alluring story. I read the books too, but the game is really great. Just the combat system is a bit tedious but apart from that the game world and the story was absolutely beautiful

This looks pretty cool, I will give it a try. I am using Streamlit at the moment and I am quite content with it.

With all due respect but no indie studio can create of this magnitude.
- Comment on PS5 Pro is struggling to improve some games, despite its power advantage 2 months ago:
This works for PC but not for PS. PS games are highly optimised to target the current generation of consoles and there is very little initiative for developers to target a new console platform unless Sony sells tens of millions of those, which I very much doubt.
- Comment on PS5 Pro is struggling to improve some games, despite its power advantage 2 months ago:
CMV but the PS5 Pro is a completely pointless release. The only reason I see is for Sony to try to justify the higher price tag on the PS6 once it releases.
- Comment on Patient gamers, what is your favorite Prince of Persia game and why? 2 months ago:
I remember playing this game and was smitten by how good and ahead of time this game was.
- Comment on Half-Life 2 peaks at 52,000 concurrent players, 20 years after its release 2 months ago:
How many games receive any update after 20 years?
- Comment on Ghost of Tsushima - I've heard it's a nice game, but it overstays its welcome. Do you agree? 2 months ago:
The combat is actually pretty good, the graphics and style is amazing. The story is a bit on the meh side. Overall, I think this game is worth it at a discount. I think I bought it for something like 20€ on a disc with the DLC and am planning to resell it at some point.
- Comment on Microsoft CEO's pay rises 63% to $79m, despite devastating year for layoffs: 2550 jobs lost in 2024 2 months ago:
Exactly how I am feeling. AI took the fun part away of cracking a problem and the satisfaction of solving it is now gone.

Why don’t you build your own?
- Comment on Devs gaining little (if anything) from AI coding assistants 3 months ago:
Programming was like a challenge, you have a problem and you need to solve it. You look into the internet, stack overflow, test different chunks of codes, reading documentation, etc. nowadays is simply splitting one problem into pieces, and then copy pasting.
- Comment on Devs gaining little (if anything) from AI coding assistants 3 months ago:
To be honest ChatGPT pretty much killed the fun of programming.
- Comment on ISPs tell Supreme Court they don’t want to disconnect users accused of piracy 4 months ago:
Why don’t they start with OpenAI and other LLM vendors, because they are the biggest copyright infringement abusers of all time?
- Comment on Sony announces the PS5 Pro with a larger GPU, advanced ray tracing, and AI upscaling 4 months ago:
You can install Plex/Jellyfin on the PC and get a much better experience, watch on the phone, tablet, serve multiple clients, etc.
So your argument is unsubstantial.
- Comment on Sony announces the PS5 Pro with a larger GPU, advanced ray tracing, and AI upscaling 4 months ago:
The best part of the PS5 is that you can buy and sell discs at much more reasonable prices.
But my feeling is that they will soon start shipping consoles without a disk drive. Maybe PS 6 will be the last one.
- Comment on The Eurogamer 100 4 months ago:
Same with Witcher 3. That was an amazing game. Or Skyrim 5.
- Comment on The air begins to leak out of the overinflated AI bubble 4 months ago:
To be honest right now is a relatively good time to build a PC, except for the GPU, which is heavily overpriced. I think if you are content with last gen AMD, this can also be turned to somewhat acceptable levels.
- Comment on Monthly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing? 4 months ago:
Skyrim with mods and specifically beyond Skyrim Bruma. I have figured out how to install mods and you can sink a lot of hours in good ol’ Skyrim.
Additionally the farmer was replaced is a fun little Python like game where you need to write Python like code to automate the manual labor on your farm. But this I play on the desktop.
- Comment on Revised Raspberry Pi 5 chip comes with unexpected power savings 4 months ago:
For 70€ you can buy an N4000 mini PC with 6Gb of RAM, and 128Gb eMMC. This is just an example from AliExpress. I am not going to post a link here, but I believe you can find even more offers. Additionally, you can buy some thin clients second hand for dirt cheap.
With the right power supply and BIOS optimisation you can bring their power consumption to be comparable to the power consumption of the Pi, and would be a lot more versatile and powerful as a home/media/automation setup.
- Comment on Revised Raspberry Pi 5 chip comes with unexpected power savings 4 months ago:
That’s definitely true but pretty much you can buy some x64 mini PC for a very similar price, and also similar power consumption that is going to be more versatile and powerful. For example you can run some VMs etc. on top of it. The only benefit of the Rpi nowadags is only their form factor.

- Comment on What have you played this week? 5 months ago:
I just installed Vortex and modded Skyrim. I also have a couple of mods on Stardew Valley. For Skyrim, I was following reddit.com/…/mod_skyrim_w_vortex_working_no_pc_ne… and installed Vortex and there you can install and uninstall mods from the manager itself. Making them run is a bit tricky, but it is definitely worth it.
- Comment on What have you played this week? 5 months ago:
Skyrim, I have modded the game on Steam Deck and installed a bunch of mods, including, Beyond Skyrim Bruma and it runs great.
