I didn't realise they also reworked the Far-Eastern Collapse.
If Kerensky fucks up the Manchu's still take over the West, Republicans run off to Transamur and Vladivostok and then either become one of two different flavours of authdem, Ukrops spawn in the north, but can either be SocDem or Banderites who are now properly set to reactionary.
Harbin proper gets to keep some of the south now, Its either led by Gastev who calms down his autism a bit and becomes PopSoc

Or…

The human eye has an average horizontal FOV of 135 and a vertical FOV of 180
Also any person standing at a height of 2m should be able to see an object 5km in front of them assuming nothings blocking their vision

Games cannot actually render these kinds of visuals for two reasons. The biggest contributing factor behind performance issues in games is literally how many objects are rendered on screen at a time, FOV forces the amount of shit a game has to render exponentially with each degree of change. Despite this I still have tested in games with a lot of accessibility like Minecraft and have modified the games files to see how close to this kind of vision, it’s a little hard to get used to but god I do hope some time in the future more games can get optimized and be able to render this

That’s all bye

I used to think it was the opposite where old games were difficult while new games were easy to appeal to casuals but as I got older I’m beginning to see things are actually the inverse

Think of it like the tf2(valves tf2) situation, players that started off playing in its earliest days are the worst players in game or average, why? Because as time passes people on a general basis got better at tf2 and info about how to be good at it spread across the gaming community meaning someone completely new to the game today is gonna get demolished especially on casual servers where sbmm doesn’t exist and can’t protect them from pros. This same thing happened to black ops and the original modern warfares to the point where you can’t expect to have fun in them anymore without getting camped endlessly as the guys that still play it know everything about it, modern games like apex and and mw19 are far worse for this as they’re more popular and hence far more information on how to abuse their mechanics is more readily available

And it’s not just shooters but RPGs and single player games as well, platformers are more complex with more movement options than before with games like Celeste, Mario maker(especially kaizou levels) and geometry dash, old rpgs from the 90s genuinely have simpler progression and gameplay mechanics than titles like osrs, war frame and world of Warcraft where the amount of systems and shit to do is so high explaining it all to a new player would either take hours or send them off running. You just can’t expect to “hop in” to new games you haven’t tried before and expect to have fun anymore without spending sometime getting exhausted trying to get good

One year
No no way especially since dragonflight is releasing this year no way anyone at the studio is gonna have enough time to finish this, ffs their own trailers didn’t even have blood and gore physics until like less than a month ago, no way these asshats are gonna release this game that fucking quickly no way that’s not enough time

Weapon durability
Gun jamming
<this one’s exclusively stalker related
<having a gorrillian anomalies everywhere making walking straight forward impossible and causing constant random instant deaths

Why do i despise these components shared in both games, because it’s part of what I call “fake difficulty” in game design where a game component only makes a component harder for the sake of harder but doesn’t encourage the player to get mechanically better at the game nor does that component make the game fun as much as tedious. I personally don’t wanna hear my gun jamming every few fucking seconds while I’m a single shot away from instadeath nor do I give a shit about durability because that shit straight up doesn’t matter at all in both of those games considering how easy it is to get weapons. Don’t get me wrong I love those games but yeah that shit needs to die it really isn’t fun to put up with at any time throughout playing

>the maps were larger
This might be shocking to some of you but RPGs used to have maps a lot larger than they’re today, part of it was the lack of limitations imposed with using sprites rather than actual polygons to build worlds and account for physics led to minimal problems with precision and collision errors but most of it was, well it’s easier to paint something than it is to model build rig or apply physics to it, coincidentally this meant quests were also large and had cryptic as shit descriptions at times making the amount of time you played these games really fucking long but you’d put up with it because you likely didn’t have that much shit to do if you were playing games back then when barely anyone had computers beyond the ones they’d use at work

Jesus

First we had the actual no mans sky
Then we had destiny 2 being garbage and then good
And it looks like the bf2042 community is recovering

Pleasant to see

Famitsu ran a poll in 2020 to judge the age of SEGA fans and the largest demographic were the 45-49 year category.

Does anyone here play tarkov and also want to play tarkov with me?

From everyone’s favourite dum-studio comes starfield
Immerse yourself in gamings most mediocre first person shooter gameplay that only barely manages to not completely piss you off just by watching it. Enjoy not being able to lean, not being able to ads while reloading, not being able to dual wield guns, not being able to throw weapons and items to stun enemies, not being able to shoot at dropped items and watch them move, not being able to have an fov past 110, not being able to have a high draw distance despite the planetary levels of detail, not being able to manually pick select firing modes, not being able to see the world with a freecam while moving, not being able to quickly change your guns setups with a convenient attachment wheel and a shitload of other basic gunplay features from god knows how many other FPS games that even modders could finish in less time than Bethesda could recycle an asset for an entire release

Does the gameplay seem too unfun for you? Well don’t worry because movement and exploration will be even shittier, enjoy floaty and unresponsive controls, enjoy the limited movement options as a byproduct of still working with creation instead of pure coded havoc or source, enjoy seeing constant popin, enjoy rag dolls whose physics are constantly breaking down due to floating point precision issues, enjoy exploration through procedurally generated terrain filled with nothing beyond more meaningless terrain to see for all 1000 worlds, enjoy seeing copy pasted assets from fallout be substituted as aliens you’ll encounter, enjoy the lifeless art design that makes every generic procedurally generated world feel even more procedural, enjoy repetitive quest lines, and don’t forget everyone’s hated component of every game made with creation, the endless clusterfuck of collision and rendering bugs you’ll encounter on a consistent basis
