  1. This is surreal to me. Not the Collab I ever expected to see. Capcom should have gotten Wayne on the album. They had him for promotion. Pay him to laid down a track.
  2. The main differences between Pixel 8 and 8 Pro is software locking. Both models largely have the same specs but certain features are only accessible with the pro. That's some foul shit google.
  3. "HDR" support will always be ass in anything that costs under $800. Even some of those monitors the support can be ass if it uses edge lighting instead of FALD. Using some amazon price trackers I see that current price of the monitor I want is the lowest price it's ever sold for. I was thinking about waiting for black friday but it's a good enough deal now.
  4. What was your budget for the 1440p monitor? Was it within the price range of the 1080 monitor you ended up buying?
  5. A silicon power drive was my runner up. This one in particular. https://a.co/d/6iGkCpv I went with the Lexar as it has better performance for $12 more. I'll keep that drive in the back of my mind if I need a storage drive. I'm looking at 27 inch for the monitor. This is the one that caught my eye. https://a.co/d/9jwwA5A For what I want it for this should suffice.
  6. I bought this drive from the current Amazon sale https://a.co/d/4NQ53qb This will be my new steam drive. I've been thinking of having a duel monitor setup as of late so I might order a cheap spectre monitor and a monitor arm before the day is over
  7. You should actually watch the show. Nocturne doesn't need Dracula. The last series gave him his happy ending. No need to undo it to have more Dracula. The Castlevania series has other villains that's been the big bad like Elizabeth Báthory (who is the big bad of Nocturne) We get nothing about the Belmonts is a lie. We are literally introduced to a brand new Belmont on episode one (Julia). Later in the season Why is a show about vampires having gay characters an issue? Vampire have been used as a metaphor for sexual deviance for as long as they existed. There's more to the gay characters other than their sexuality. There's no non binary fyi. Ricther is the main character from start to finish. There's a point when the plot on hero side comes to a halt mid season when Richter decides to peace out. To say he's not a focus is not accurate. Caribbean story is there to establish Annette's backstory. The show establishes that magic becomes unusable if the user is suffering from heavy trauma. Richter was able to use magic as a kid but hasn't been able to since his mom died. Olrox has nuance beyond shipping. The reasons for why he doesn't anything isn't fully explored. About that line you paraphrased from Richter, he said something more in line in having complete faith in Maria and her mother because he loves them. They are his family and he joined the revolution because he has faith in Maria's reason to do so. It's wrong for a dude to have complete faith in someone? I love Castlevania but in terms of story the games aren't got much there. What is there is basic and it only exists to provide context to the gameplay. Everything Netflix has done is in improvement in my eyes.
  8. Megan did a better job at handling negative reception than Rousey.
  9. No worries. I'll wait until maybe the first expansion to get Starfield. Hopefully the mod support would have matured by then
  10. It's always these types. They all for "inclusion" but once people they want to acknowledge doesn't play ball they will discard their feelings on the matter and press on. Malcolm X warned us all.
  11. In Zangief's case he needs a functional level 1. His level 2 is not bad at all.
  12. On this day, I see clearly. Edge is all elite
  13. It was fine being a low stake story and then it became battle for all reality out of nowhere and rushed the finished. I loved the callback to Armageddon but that could have been saved for later.
  14. Multiverse tanks the story. They should have saved it for a sequel if they really wanted to do it
  15. The price does matter as that's his main point against the 30%. Yeah, people having their library on Steam is why they will stick with it. For those who are willing to step outside of Steam the competition is undercooked. They don't have Steam's community features, storage options, remote access, streaming capabilities, marketplace, workshop, etc. Battle net is the closest to matching it but that's exclusively Blizzard.
  16. He keeps bringing up the 30% because he believes that devs would charge less for games if the platform takes a lesser cut. As I said, the Epic store takes a lesser cut (12%) and none of that has been passed to the costumer. Epic is still not as feature rich as Steam is so what's the benefit for the customer to chose it over Steam? I'm all for competition but as long as the comp is ass I'm staying where I am.
  17. This Sebastian keeps arguing in bad faith. He wants customers to care about Valve's 30% cut when that's not a cost that affects them. He argues that a lower percentage would make games cheaper but Epic store proves that's not the case as devs still charge full price for their games (Epic takes 12%). Ubisoft, EA, Rockstar and Bethesda showed that publisher owned launchers isn't it. There isn't enough out there to support his side.
  18. It's easier for them to tap into the warner bros catalog since they are a subsidiary of that company.
