I just wanted to give the devs feedback on things that would make me buy the game again.
- LOD's are terrible. Stuff was culling when it was only like 10 feet away from me. I am pretty sure that this game was made for quest, and even though I am playing PCVR, with a 3090ti, and I have the settings set to ultra, the graphics are still running the same thing the quest does. Please adjust the LOD bias for PCVR to like 20x, so we can see details like pipes on the walls from 300 feet away. This is like the bare minimum of work that this game should have for done for PCVR. Onward handles the differences by giving the quest a LOD bias of 1.18, and the PCVR LOD bias of 16. They also make quest ignore the LOD0 models, so they can have higher detailed objects on the PCVR version without using different levels for each version. PCVR can handle this, and a lot more. This is also the reason buildings and stuff disappear at a distance. These sort of things are not bugs, but just poor optimization for quest, and it seems there is no difference in code between the PCVR version of this game and the quest one. Whats the point of even having settings, if everyone on quest has the same hardware, and anyone that bought a GPU in the last 20 years can play this game on Ultra settings?
-No gun stock calibration. I use a gunstock, and I couldn't look down the sight of my gun the way my gunstock was set up. I had to free hand all my shots. This is my #1 complaint.
-I hate that you have to have a backpack in order to carry ammo. I should be able to put at least a mag or two on my body.
What I liked:The general concept. Feels the The Division, but for VR.
The hype for this game was quite real. A lot of people were excited about it, but its drastically different from what I expected. I thought we were finally getting a game that cared about the PCVR community, but this is not it.

How ye!
Ive played a fair bit of pokemon in my time and mostly using gameboy, DS R4 and now switch.
I have a fairly full dex on an R4 cart of platinum, a legitimate 1st gen blue on gameboy and bits and pieces on official and non official GBA, DS and 3DS games.
So I just learned about pokemon bank, poke transporter and pokemon home (yeah i know i am old and sleep under rocks)
So i went and got all of those as well as 3ds versions of the GB series games on virtual console. I had a fair bit of credit on my Nintendo Switch account so i merged and got em no big deal. I had read that pokebank or transport didnt like cia's of those games being on the system to transport the pokemon but reading further today I see that installing CIA's of mainline games for 3ds just works so Im currently downloading Alpha Sapphire and Y and having an official copy of Sun, i think i have most bases covered
I have all Gen 1, Gen 2, (official)
1 Gen 3 (official) and a EZ Flash with the others on GBA
1 Gen 4 (official) and another on R4
2 Gen 5 (on a flash cart) (heres where the questions come)
1 Gen 6 cia installed
1 Gen 7 official and 1 cia installed
and 1 gen 8 official on switch
So i know i can get my gen 1, 2, 3 (with some work in the games to gen 4) gen 6??? and Gen 7 & 8 into home via poke transporter and bank
Can i really get my cia of 6 to transport my pokemon into bank???
But Gen 5 is my conundrum - Im not paying 250 euro for a DS game but how do i get those pokemon ive captured into the bank without it. I have them on a flash cart with removable micro SD
thanks in advance

DayZ has been around a long time. It has come a long way from the days of ArmA2:OA mod, and even a longer way from the first build release of DayZ Standalone... Over the years there's been lots of changes, revamps, alterations, problems, highs, lows, etc. But one thing about DayZ remains true across all iterations of its existence: "DayZ is a post-apocalyptic open world survival game."
I would honestly add "hardcore" to that, but I realize that makes some softies shrivel up and start to artificially lower their self-esteem because they don't like a challenge or anything that requires a remote iota of thought, but the text from the subreddit description just about nails it: A post-apocalyptic, open world, survival game.
In the post-apocalypse, will they have a magic map that radars your location to you in real-time? Or a compass on the top of your screen thanks to your unique ability to always know in what precise direction you are facing? Will they have ATMs where you can stack paper to the ceiling all day that nobody else can get to and that is still somehow an acceptable fiat currency to buy whatever you could ever need or want without having to know where to look for it, when government and order have all but collapsed...? I don't even want to touch on all the other dumb shit people are doing to make DayZ into a bouncey house. That alone would have ruined what made DayZ ArmA2:OA mod special: you have no fucking idea where the hell you are! Better figure it out or die trying.
I'm beginning to grow wrinkles on my brow from seeing all these players coming to the game and begging to have everything handed to them. I'm more disappointed in the pathetic nexus that is spawning this catering-to-no-brains approach, which is to sell more copies to kids who are tired of being made fun of in COD lobbies and are seeking to be lambasted on another platform. But, ultimately, the best players in this game will never rely on an in-game map. Many of them won't even rely on the IZurvive map--the one true resource for learning the world(s) and navigating them and what you can find in them--because they've played the game enough to know, generally, what they're running into. The rest is a surprise! The futile obsession with controlling your destiny is the complete obfuscation of what DayZ is: a world where anything can happen and you are susceptible to death's embrace from a little papercut on your index finger or getting eaten by a pack of wolves.
For all of you who have up to this point relied on a super-debased, super-off-track amalgamation of what DayZ is, I implore you: Challenge yourself. Fail. And try again. I've been doing that in DayZ since 2012 for probably what amounts to more than 3,000 hours. Why can't you give it a try and see what happens? Or, I guess, if you need a map to tell you where you're about to get shot in the back of the head, that's fine, too... Just saying.
For any of you pros or challenge-seekers who enjoy a more difficult DayZ than the flower-and-perfume fragrance that's being hocked, please back me up here and share your 2cents about what makes DayZ great--the difficulty.

okay okay im 100% this has been asked before and is pretty annoyning but is it possible to buy/unlock necromancer without spending real life money? i just started this game again for the first time in more than 4 years and im wondering if i could enjoy the game without spending money. thank you!

hi, i know there are billions of post like this, i've read all of them and still im stucked.
i played the game from zenimax launcher, i stopped playing for a few months and then i updated the launcher to play again, but after the download ended, i hit play and nothing happen. I tried reinstalling/repairing, updating direct x and microsoft redistributable c++, gpu drivers, unistalling onedrive, i tried to start the game without steam (eso64 don't open anything) ecc... still nothing, i gave up, now i buyied it on steam for few euros, downloaded it, and here we go again.
here is my situation: OS win 10 is SSD like steam and ESO and an hdd with other games i redid all the updatings and checked for solution online, i tried starting every exe like amministrator, deleted program data folder and searched for the folder "elder scrolls online" in mydocuments, but there isnt. I sended a ticket but a week passed and no real solution came... any help? i probably forgot to write down about 10k other ways i tried to solve it. and no, im not gonna format my pc in order to play eso... Thanks

TW: Intense, masochistic sexuality.
Caliope, Clever Little Shit
Caliope sat in the back of the transport, still parked in front of the fancy house somewhere in south LA. Finally, she had her hands cuffed in front of her body, and she could reach her crotch. She dug fingers in her panties and inside of herself, reaching deep, into her posterior fornix. The thrill of stimulation there barely registered, even though it was her favorite spot for a cock or dildo to hit. She was too angry.
She pushed hard, twisting at the cuffs until she fit her entire hand inside of herself, and she could finally reach the scar. It had been there for years, waiting for this exact opportunity.
She dug her fingernails in, the sensitive tissue sending howling signals of pain to her brain, where her own psychology twisted them into signals of pleasure. Blood flowed as she scratched and clawed at herself, but she eventually found what she was looking for. Flesh parted, revealing a small, artificial lump.
She seized in in slippery fingers and pulled it out. It was a tiny handcuff key, with a tiny bit of her own brand of magic stored inside of it, wrapped in layers of cling-wrap. She quickly unwrapped it as blood soaked through her panties and smeared the seat.
She finally got it unwrapped and wasted no time unlocking her handcuffs. The bleeding did not concern her, she knew she would heal rapidly once she was done. She touched the key to the collar around her throat and felt the relief as its magic failed. She quickly used the sharpened tooth on the key to saw through the strap of the collar.
Her own magic filled her, and she let some of it turn to healing. She turned some more into physical strength. Then she checked the doors.
Locked, of course. The DCM was not known for ignoring non-magical security measures. She saw the two officers moving towards her vehicle, and decided that violence was the way to go. She placed her hands in her lap and waited.
They climbed in and started the vehicle.
"Listen," the driver said. "Here's how this works. You don't give us any problems, we don't give you any problems, okay?"
She nodded. "I understand," she said. "No problems."
"Good. We're probably gonna hit a drive-thru on the way. You can get something if you're hungry," the passenger said. Caliope nodded. "Thank you," she said, demurely. A drive-thru would be the perfect time to strike.
She sat in the back quietly as they drove her north. Around Anaheim, they pulled into a Jack in the Box, stopping in front of the menu. "Figure out what you want," the passenger said, turning to face her. "It's my treat."
Caliope smiled at him. He smiled back, then turned to face forward, and that's when Caliope struck.
She felt like she'd gotten a raw deal, the last time. She had never really gotten the chance to fight, except when she faced off with that psycho lunatic who'd surprised her and beaten her to within an inch of her life before she even understood what was happening. She had been training to fight for years and years, and yet when the time came, she managed to catch the guy who was, according to everything she understood, out standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the gods themselves.
But these two, they were former soldiers or cops. Not demigods, not magical beings of immense power.
She surged forward and grabbed the driver by the head, digging fingers into his eye sockets. The man let loose a howl that brought a smile to her face as she blinded him and slammed his head against the seat rest. She brought her feet up and wedged them against the back of his seat even as the passenger spun, a can of paper spray coming up. She ignored him, even as the magical shield triggered by the can popped into place on the man's face and tried -unsuccessfully, thanks to her fingers- to form over the driver's face.
The man let loose and the liquid splattered her face, immediately causing an intense burning sensation. She shuddered as the pain made her cum and redoubled her efforts. With magically enhanced strength, it didn't take long to bend the headrest back, hyperextending the man's neck. His struggles abruptly stopped as she felt something pop in his body and he slumped against her.
The passenger had apparently realized that the pepper spray was just this side of worthless and drawn his sidearm. He thrust it towards he, and she had just enough time to duck her head and seize his wrist before it went off.
The sound was deafening in the enclosed space. Caliope's ears rang as she squeezed the man's wrist and slammed it into his own headrest. He reached back with his free hand and grabbed a handful of her hair, yanking forward and slamming her face into the back of his seat. She felt her nose break and another orgasm swept through her as she grabbed the hand holding her head.
She slammed his wrist again and again, and finally he dropped the gun. She tried to catch it, but missed and it clattered to the floor. She reached down for it, but the man's grip on her hair kept her from it. She strained against him, reaching for the gun.
His right hand vanished, then she felt a heavy impact in her side. She glanced down to see the man drawing the four-inch blade of a combat knife out of her ribs. The impact began to throb and burn as she whipped her head around and warded his knife off with one hand, still straining for the gun with the other.
The knife darted and slashed, opening her arm in two places. She brushed the gun with her fingertips, shifting it. Caliope sucked in a deep breath, ignoring the burning in her side and her arm that made her want to touch herself, and yanked down hard on the hand holding her hair. Her scalp erupted into more burning as he yanked a large clump of hair out by the roots, but she could now reach the gun.
She picked it up and pressed it to the back of the seat, squeezing the trigger until the slide locked back. The cracks of the shots were loud, but her still-ringing ears muted them. The guard slumped, his hands going limp. He dropped the knife into the foot well.
Caliope leaned back and gave in to the urge that had been with her ever since the pepper spray struck her. She wiped her face, wetting her hands and then stuck them both in her panties, coming immediately as her vulva began to burn. She played with herself for several minutes, until she couldn't afford to remain here any longer. Someone in the restaurant or the buildings nearby would have heard the gunshots and the local police might be on the way already.
She grabbed the driver and hauled him into the back, then climbed up to the driver's seat. She put the vehicle, still idling, back into drive and spun it around, pulling back out of the parking lot.
She glanced at the body next to her. "You don't give me any trouble, I won't give you any trouble," she said with a grin.
----
A few miles later, she pulled into a mostly empty parking lot in front of a strip mall. She turned onto the road as she reached over and patted the pockets of the dead guard. She found his cellphone in his pants pocket and pulled it out. She used his phone to unlock it, and opened the web browser, typing in a URL that she knew by heart. It took a second to load, and when it did, it immediately loaded a chat room.
U there? she typed and hit send. She waited.
Less than ten seconds passed before the indicator that someone was typing flashed on. A few seconds after that, a new message appeared.
Waiting on u, it said. Caliope grinned.
I no where theres guns an shit, Caliope typed, pausing to check the history of the vehicle's on-board GPS. in san clemente. im in anaheim rn
The typing icon appeared, cycled through its animation and vanished.
Coming there where r u? the chat read. Caliope's grin widened. She hit back on the GPS until it showed her current location, giving the intersection at the top.
Euclid st n katelia ave, in a car w dcm stickers by the arbys
A second later, the icon appeared and then vanished before it could animate.
Omw, the chat read.
Caliope turned and wrestled the other guard's body into the back, then got out and opened the rear hatch. She found raincoats, rifles, a shotgun and assorted gear, mostly tools that would be useful in a rescue situation. She grabbed a raincoat and a blanket and the closed it up.
She threw the blanket over the bodies in the back, then stripped out of her bloody clothes and threw the raincoat on. It was translucent, but she didn't care. She checked their pockets and then the center console of the vehicle, finding a few bills in their wallets and a mass of change in the center console. She took it and walked into a laundromat that was part of the strip mall.
She washed her clothes, smiling at the men who kept sneaking peeks at her body through the raincoat. After they came out of the dryer, she stripped right there and pulled them on. Two of the younger men cheered for her when she pulled the raincoat off.
She left and went to sit in the driver's seat of the DCM vehicle. She waited for another thirty minutes, until a beat-up old Toyota pulled into the spot next to her, and her sister and two men climbed out.
She rolled down the window. "Hulks or ninjas?" she asked the two men. Both sneered at her. "Hulks," one of them said, sounding offended. She smiled. "Good. There's only four guards left to watch the place until the cops come. If we hurry, this should be easy."
----
"Griselda, are you done?" Caliope asked, sticking her head into the kitchen. Griselda sat there, in front of the last survivor of their assault on Garcia's home. He was slumped over, insensate, the hand she had duct-taped to the table by the wrist flayed open to expose muscle and tendons.
Griselda pouted at her sister. "He fainted," she said.
"We're all geared up," Caliope told her. "We're ready to decide what to do."
Griselda stood. She picked up a sewing needle from the table and jammed it into the man's shoulder as she passed him by, but he didn't react. He really was out cold.
The two hulks, Johnny and Bob, stood in the living room, next to the shimmering portal.
"So where we going? We splitting up, or sticking together?" Bob asked.
"Well," Griselda said. "We don't really have any money. Just a couple hundred bucks. And we're on the run, so we need money."
"These guns are worth a pretty penny," Johnny said, hefting a shotgun. Caliope shook her head. "They're not worth enough for us to split up and vanish, the way we need to."
"Duke told us what to do," Bob pointed out.
"He goes by 'Dylan' now," Griselda told him, glancing at Caliope for confirmation. She nodded.
"He did, but the question is whether we want to work for him again," Caliope said.
"I don't give a shit who I work for, as long as I get paid," Johnny said.
"Duke was always good about making sure we got paid," Bob agreed.
Caliope was less sure. She looked at her sister, who shrugged. "Why not?" Griselda asked. "I mean, it's right there. The dead world. We don't even have to look for it, it's right in front of us."
Caliope nodded. Finding the dead world had always been the 'tricky part' of Duke-er, Dylan's emergency plan. But there it was, right through that portal. With that problem solved, the idea of teaming back up with their old boss was a bit more appealing.
"Fuck it," Caliope said. Griselda grinned at her. "Let's go."
They all walked through the portal, checking behind them to make sure the way back was still there as they emerged onto a concrete road, surrounded by concrete buildings and dried-out corpses. It was, the dark ritual room a shocking contrast to the midday sun around them.
"Okay, now which way?" Johnny asked after they'd all walked through. As if in response, a thunderous roar sounded from off in the distance.
"Towards the monster," Caliope said. Griselda took her hand, digging her nails in, making Caliope whimper. She slipped a hand down the back of her sister's pants and slipped a finger into her ass, wiggling it. They smiled at each and turned to share a deep kiss for a moment before they took off, following the two men.
They trudged through the city for over an hour, not seeing any sign of whatever had done the roaring. Caliope noted the bodies and made a game of trying to guess what they'd been doing when they died. She soon roped Griselda into it, and they began guessing out loud. Before too long, Johnny and Bob joined in.
"Those two were fucking, for sure," Johnny said, pointing to a pair of corpses, one piled on the other.
"With their pants on?" Caliope asked skeptically.
"Fine, but those two were definitely fucking," Bob said, stopping and pointing down an alley. Caliope looked, and sure enough, another pair of corpses were piled there. The one on top had pants around its ankles, and the one on the bottom had a skirt that was hiked up.
They all stopped to laugh at that pair, killed in the middle of their tryst.
Johnny walked over and began messing with the corpses before throwing his head back and laughing. Griselda crouched down next to him, then began to giggle and raised the man's hand to slap her palm against it.
"What?" Caliope asked?
"She's got a toy in her asshole, and the dude is still inside her," Johnny explained, wiping tears from his eyes. Caliope grinned. "Adventurous," she quipped.
"Jesus," Bob said, checking it out for himself. "How fucking jaded do you gotta be to have to get your rocks off by getting DPed in public?"
Griselda jabbed him in the ribs, hard. "Don't mock people's kinks," she said.
Bob turned a look on her. "Oh, you like getting DPed in public? Maybe Johnny and I could help you out a bit," he said. Caliope noted a certain gleam in his eyes and decided to speak up.
"How could you do that, Bob, after my sister cuts your dick off?"
"Heh," Bob chuffed, straightening up. "I know you two have your tricks, but I wouldn't need to get big to toss you both around like rag dolls. Trust me, if I decide to fuck you, I'm gonna fuck you."
"Jesus fuck," Johnny objected. "Shut the fuck up, Bob. If you try to rape one of them, I'll help them beat the shit out of you. We've got more important shit to worry about, right now."
Caliope nodded in agreement. She was beginning to like Johnny. He had that big, blonde gringo thing going for him, and he seemed to have a good head on his shoulders.
"Johnny's right, Bob," she said. "And we can target our silence, you know. We could stop you from getting big, while letting him."
Bob laughed, though she detected a tinge of nerve in his tone. "You guys are way too uptight. Can't even tell when you're being fucked with."
"Well, let's stop fucking around," Caliope said. "In fact, we should stop talking, so we can hear if anything's approaching. I'd hate for whatever made that roar to catch us flat footed, talking about whose dick is going in whose asshole."
"My dick," Griselda said, "Goes in everyone's asshole." She stood and brushed sand off her pants, walking away from the fateful lovers.
Johnny joined her, leaving Bob to trail behind as they set off again.
They walked the rest of the afternoon in silence. As the sun set, they stopped to confer about what to do, deciding to stop in an intact building. They had Bob go out and gather grass and leaves and crumbling sticks to make a fire with, and then they heated up some of the camp food they'd found.
After eating, they cleared spaces on the floor and set up their sleeping bags, then went to sleep.
Caliope waited until she could hear three voices snoring before she climbed out of her bag. She stripped down to nothing and walked out of the building. The night sky looked different, she thought. The stars were different and the milky way was thicker and less bright.
She found the bench she'd spotted on their way in. It had small, sharp looking fins protruding from the arms which had caught her eye. She placed a leg on the seat and lowered herself, grinding her hips back and forth. The fins tore at the skin of her vulva, the tugging, burning pain making her body tingle. Blood dripped onto the rusty metal, and she wondered idly if she'd get tetanus from it.
The idea excited her. It was suppose to be a painful condition.
She didn't hear the footsteps approaching over her own whimpers and gasps. She didn't know anyone was behind her until she felt a pair of large hands grab her hips.
She spun, expecting to see Bob there, but it was Johnny. She smiled, seeing him.
"You want to help?" she asked.
"I'm not sure I can, now... You're all torn up," he said. She looked down to see the blood in her pubic hair and on the bench's arm.
"I heal," she said. "Like Dylan used to. It's part of the magic."
"Wish they'd given us that part," Johnny said. He leaned forward and brushed his lips against hers. She nipped at his upper lip, making him pull back. "Don't bite," he said.
"How else do I get you to bite back?" she asked playfully. She ground herself against the bench again, feeling the slight pop as each fin caught and then came loose of her flesh.
"Ask nicely," Johnny said.
Caliope grinned, then contorted her face into a parody of pleading. "Please bite me," she whispered. Johnny eyed her skeptically for a moment, then suddenly dipped his head and sank his teeth into her neck. She gasped as he did and moaned.
"Harder," she whispered. His teeth clamped down more.
"Harder," she murmured. She felt the sudden release of tension as he broke the skin.
"Harder," she said. He let go, and she could see blood on his lips. He lifted her up and bit down on one of her nipples, and the heat of an orgasm swept her mind away for a moment. When she regained her senses, she cried "Harder!"
He flipped her around and dropped her onto the arm of the bench. It jabbed painfully into her stomach and ripped skin at the tips of each fin. She came again, shuddering as Johnny pressed one hand down on her back. She felt him roughly shove a finger into her ass, followed by a second, making her moan.
As she felt his knuckles slip inside of her, another pair of hands, smaller and softer, grabbed her head and pushed it down, smacking her cheek against the backrest. Caliope caught a glimpse of her sister between the metal bars and grinned. Nobody could hurt her quite like Griselda.
"Here," Griselda said. "Let me show you what she likes."
Caliope melted away in an ocean of delicious agony.
----
Bob seemed oblivious to what he had missed out on the next morning. Caliope moved slowly, not because any injuries lingered, but because a slight ache remained low in her stomach, and she wanted to savor it.
Johnny managed to avoid getting clingy, which Caliope appreciated. Too many men thought that fucking her meant they were now a couple of some sort, and that she needed catering to. Johnny didn't care. He packed his own bag quickly and then started the fire up again and began cooking, never so much as offering to help either of the sisters with their stuff.
They got packed up, then got some food, and then set off. Caliope was beginning to worry that they might be moving in the wrong direction, but they had no other clues to tell them where to go.
It was shortly after noon, and they had left the city, moved through a small suburb and out into the dead countryside when she heard voices. She brought a hand up, then turned and pressed a finger to her lips. Everybody crouched down, Johnny and Bob readying their guns.
The voices were getting closer, coming from the left side of the road. Caliope crept into the dead trees as quietly as she could, until she could see a break and the shine of another concrete road.
Eventually, they clarified, and Caliope could hear what they were saying.
"It's not that," one voice said, a woman's voice. "All things considered, especially with how fucking promiscuous he is, I don't really care about you two fucking. I care about him. He's been my friend for a while, and he's in a bad place."
"I did not initiate it," a second woman's voice said. "I know what he's going through. I don't want to do anything that would hurt him worse than he's already hurting."
"See, that's the thing," the first voice said. "I don't know that's true. Let me be clear, okay? I don't trust you. I know where you come from, and while I believe that you are your own person, with your own goals and whatever, I know that all of... You, comes from her. And the reason I came here is because I want her dead. I want her to die in agony, and you're a part of her."
"I am not her."
"I believe you. My concern is how much like her you are."
"Are we just going to talk about how little you trust me the whole day?"
"Nope!" the first voice said brightly. "I was just wrapping up. So if you do anything, and I mean anything, that I could possibly see as a betrayal, I'll cut your arms and legs off, stop you from healing, and feed you to Shadow."
"I understand," the second voice said coldly.
"I knew you would," said the first voice as two figured came around a bend on the other road. Both were young women, maybe in their mid twenties. One had jet-black hair with blonde roots pulled back into a ponytail, and was dressed in black tactical gear with goth makeup on. The other also had black hair, but it was longer and let free to fall down her back. She wore body armor over a t-shirt and gray cargo pants. The goth one carried a rifle, and the way her arm was casually draped over the stock suggested that she was very familiar with it.
Caliope froze, knowing that the slightest sound might draw their attention. She crossed her fingers, hoping the others wouldn't give away their presence, either. The two women walked, silent now, down the road, heading in the same direction they were moving in.
She watched them pass. When they vanished, she waited a minute or two to be sure before she returned to find the others gone.
She didn't have long to wonder where they'd gone, though. A moment after she got there, while she was still deciding which way they must have gone, the dead bushes rustled and began to shed leaves. Griselda and the two hulks appeared.
"Why'd you hide?" Caliope asked.
"There was a dude flying around," Johnny said.
"It was him," Griselda hissed, her face a mask of anger.
"The guy from the TV show," Bob added, though Caliope already knew who her sister was referring to. "The one that led the attack on the compound."
"Shit," Caliope cursed.
"What are we going to do?" Griselda demanded. Caliope held up a hand, demanding time to think.
After a moment, she gave voice to her thoughts.
"He has to be with the two I saw. At some point, he's got to land. If we follow them, we could get the jump on them."
Griselda's angry look turned into an eager grin. "I want him, after we kill the other two."
"Shit," Bob said. "If the other two are hot, I want one of them."
"So we'll kill one and capture two," Johnny said. "You recognize these fuckers, what do we have to deal with?"

Hi guys, just a quick question. So in my country asus sells quit a few of the same 2019 model. Is it all just refreshes without much changes since 2019's VG27AQ. Pricing is also the same, the VG27AQA1A is the most recent from 2023.
ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ 2019ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQ1A 2020ASUS VG27AQA1A 2023
And slightly different, this one Im also not sure about:
ASUS TUF Gaming VG27AQZ 2021
I think ill buy one now, waiting on oled prices to come down is a long wait, so ill buy a stop-gab screen. Was also considering the popular HP X27q through based on HUB's review.

Hi, I recently bought a setup as below:
Monitor: ASUS TUF Gaming VG249Q 144hz GPU: Gigabyte RTX 3070 Ti Gaming CPU: I5-12400F MOBO: Biostar B660MX-E v 6.0 Ram: DDR4 Kingston Fury Beast RGB, 8GB, 3200Mhz PSU: XPG Core Reactor 750W 80+ Gold SSD: Kingston m.2 500gb AirCooler DeepCool AK400
I was playing Assassins Creed Valhala and then, after 30 minutes of playing, my fps dropped, the GPU usage as well, and the frequency of CPU dropped too. Frequency of CPU normally is 3994 and dropped to 399.
Avg CPU temperature: 70°C Avg GPU temperature: 80°C
I already tried to play with and without XMP, but with the same behaviour.
Someone can help??

I have been gaming for over two decades and I recently find myself unable to devout time to gaming. My ki level is 100 and after I returned from my 4 day conference when I turned on GoT, my husband unlocked majority of my geaappearance etc by grinding on my account for 18hours. This infuriated me and I asked him if he would do it to his male friends without their permission. He said no. He says he has no idea why he did it. Despite his ki being 120, we never had issues gaming together.
Also, he has done this previously for my outward character to which I politely asked him to not do it again. He has micromanaged me for other games like divinity. I have posted about this issue at length in girlgamers with a lot more fury because the issue was very recent. Wanting a male perspective I'm leaving this here as well. I would appreciate any opinion/advise.

Is the ability to track who built the ship I am flying, to see when it was built, and who built all the modules that I am fitting on to my ship.
It's okay if blockchain is integrated like this, because it would add another layer of depth to the game without incurring more costs.
Imagine being able to see a detailed list of killmails from the killmarks that are on your ship when you open the details page of the ship.
Change my mind.

Hey guys, now that the Switch version is out I think that there's a lot of new players (including me) that are discovering the bosses, gameplay mechanics and other stuff. I just wanted to say a few things about this boss since this one can actually be worse when playing multiplayer if your partners aren't aware of his abilities. Keep in mind that my knowledge is quite limited so I'm sure that the community here can give way better advice and correct any wrong information:

1. If the boss flashes with a white light and stops, he's doing a recovery ability. Shoot him a couple of times to stop this. Prioritise stopping this. Since the boss divides in multiple individuals, it's harder to keep track of every copy and when the people helping you don't know this it allows the boss to recover good portions of health, specially when more than one copy does that and they are dispersed.
   
2. The Seed Caller ability that you can get pretty early in the game has been useful to get some damage without dispersing the copies so that you can keep track of the copies attempting to recover health.
   
3. I haven't gotten one yet, but I'm pretty sure that there should be weapons that attack multiple enemies or that cover larger areas when shooting. Something like that would be really useful with this boss.
   
4. When the Boss does some kind of red aura thing that advances in multiple directions, roll forward. Rolling backwards or in other directions has a greater chance of you still getting hit by that attack.
   
5. When there's multiple copies, expect abilities to be used more than once in a roll, so prioritise dodging.
   
6. Don't get surrounded. Keep attacking the copies from a good distance. It just takes one series of attacks for the boss to let you with low health or even kill you.
   
7. Unless you are really far from enemies, don't revive a partner. It sounds mean, but it's practically useless to attempt it when you are in the range of the Boss as the attacks are too fast and constant for the reviving animation to complete.
   

As of now, I'm still stuck with that boss, getting close to kill it by myself but I'd welcome people that already know how to fight it. FoIf the people that attempted to help read this, I hope that you don't take my post the wrong way, I really appreciated the help. It's just that without knowing this the fight is even harder. You were still great and did what you could.
Sorry for my english, I hope that this post helps someone.

As the title states, I was streaming for about two hours last night, and OBS froze for some reason.
I've been testing some stuff to get a good quality stream going for 1080p x 60fps; occasionally, I also want to record video without streaming at those settings. Mainly playing with Encoder Settings, Rate Control & Bitrates.
if it helps, I'm using an Elgato Game Capture HD60 S+ to capture my PS5, and my video card drivers are current.
Any assistance or recommendations to keep the stream stable and OBS from not becoming unresponsive would be really appreciated.

So basically when I start valorant everything is fine, I’ll get a few games in (yesterday I played 5 before it happened, today it happened in the 3rd) and basically what will happen is that I’ll be trying to communicate and realise my mic is popping up on the left of the screen. After having to play out the game without communicating I can now see that my mic has an x beside it, everyone else’s mic has an x beside it and I can’t hear or talk to anyone. So far the only solution has been to restart my entire PC. Has anyone else experienced this or have any ideas on what’s causing it or how to solve it ?

I purchased a pre-build PC (Omen 30L) about a year and a half ago. Seems to be dropping frame rate like crazy, always a slight lag when I play and can’t run games with decent resolution on without it being super buggy. Any ideas on what I should change/upgrade ? Any suggestion helps thanks

So I just got a new SDD and want to install Windows 10 on that drive and use it as my boot device and on my second drive (my current SSD) I want to delete the Windows 11 install without delete everything else that I have like photos, videos, and games. Is that possible?

At some point, Rockstar Games will inevitable announce Grand Theft Auto VI, because the hugely popular franchise is much too big for Grand Theft Auto V (and GTA Online) to end up being the swan song. When will it happen, though? Not on March 25, as was rumored (the date has come and gone). And not during a subsequent livestream that had some fans excited, which turned out to be a prank.
Let's back up a moment. Last week, GTA VI rumors kicked into high gear when an anonymous forum users claimed to have the skinny on a pending announcement. Citing "multiple inside sources," the user claimed GTA VI would see an unveiling on March 25, with players being reintroduced to a 1980s style Vice City setting.
Separately, the Internet community noticed around the same time that the domain GTAVI.com had stopped redirecting visitors to Rockstar Games. This sometimes happens on parked domains just prior to a launch.
Grand Theft Auto VI Twitch
March 25 came and went without an announcement, but then a Twitch channel labeled GTAVI hit the scene. It featured a GTA VI logo and a countdown timer. And in the stream's description, there was a link to Rockstar Games, along with a message welcoming visitors to "our official Grant Theft Auto VI Twitch Channel." The description further promised that "throughout the next coming days we'll see broadcasting announcements and sneak peaks live through the power of Twitch!"
While it may have seemed plausible, it turned out to be a fake. The clues were there all along. There was no verified badge to be found, but what visitors could find were mistakes in spelling and grammar, such as "peaks" instead of "peeks."
The countdown timer was the telltale sign, though, because it expires on April 1, 2020, otherwise known as April Fool's Day. I can neither confirm nor deny this. But I did read your tweet 😉 https://t.co/0ZEVjR9A4c
— Jorge Consejo (@JorgeConsejo) July 9, 2019 There will likely be more fake leaks ahead of whenever GTA VI launches, the challenging part is sifting through what might be real and what is clearly not. For example, the resume of Mexican actor Jose Consejo had come to light last year and sparked interest because it lists a CGI role for GTA VI from back in 2018. When this was brought up on Twitter, Consejo replied that he could "neither confirm or deny" that he is in GTA VI, along with a winking emoji.
"While I read every message from you, please know that because of contract stipulations sometimes I’m unable to comment on certain projects," Consejo wrote in a more recent tweet. "Please don't feel ignored or unseen. I appreciate and value every single one of you."
Whether he acted a role in GTA VI is not clear, though if not, he could have just as easily squashed the speculation without running afoul his contract obligation.

Hey people!
I am kind of playing this series in reverse order - started on Limbus, then beat Ruina, now onto Lobotomy Corp - and having a blast with PM's worldbuilding and their meanness to the player in some regards. Here are just my experiences with abnos and tools in the first 30 days or so of playing - I reset once, at around day 23 cause I had been given Mountain of Bodies and Parasite Tree and just could not deal with them.
Also I am mostly blind (apart from bits I know from Ruina/Limbus and some tidbits my friends have droppped).
Will split them into tiers of how much I like them.
S: Child of the Galaxy - My little guy. My lovely little person. My training dummy. This abno is one I will take whenever I can just because a) it is really easy to handle, b) the work result does not matter, c) it can make harder abnos possible to handle (more on that in a bit) and d) it is a pure training dummy. This is how I got most of my V-level employees and got people over justice III before managing to beat sephira suppressions.
Heart of Aspiration - I loved Fervent Beats in Ruina and this thing is just that but without any drawback. Honestly feels overpowered.
Freischütz - One of my favourite abnormalities just because what it is based on. I visited a musical/theater performance based on Der Freischütz when I was a teen (the production was called Black Rider) and I just love the theme, its look, all that god stuff. Also easy to suppress, a good justice trainer.
Blue Star - Putting this here because it is my first Aleph but weirdly easy to contain. Doesn't care what happens in the rest of the facility. Only wants to be worked on by pros (and stat checkers for high stats are completely fine imo). Good weapon and really good armor. It escaped twice and both those instances were instant restarts cause it sucked up an entire department, BUT that was also my fault for missing meltdowns during Yesod's suppression so I can't entirely blame it.
One Sin - Obligatory place for the bro he's cool and doesn't judge.
Red Riding Hooded Mercenary - LOVE the theming. Love being able to sic her onto abnos. Love the armor too, and the gimmick of the weapon is cool but I am not a fan of super short ranged weapons. Good damage on it tho.
A:
Scorched Girl - Easy to work with being a Teth, really good weapon to give a meh nugget to just solo things like Purple Dawn/Amber Dawn, kind of horrible when it got out early and just nuked my guys but easy to deal with later.
Woodsman - Annoying gimmick but I was able to ignore him 90% of the time or just work with him once for the entire day when he had a meltdown. I hate abnos that want a low stat but this one is just ignorable so it goes here.
Beauty And the Beast - The first abno I would call a memory trainer but this one actually shows you which state it is in with its animation. Also a good Justice trainer.
Punishing Bird - The only reason this is not in S is because it keeps me from feeling safe to put Black Swan's weapons onto people in the fear that it will peck one, get damage reflected, and eat them. Otherwise it's cute and breaks people out of panic.
Judgement Bird - This would be in S just for the armor and weapon it gives which are BUSTED and Aleph for some reason if not for the fact that it was the first thing I met dealing Pale damage, the first thing I met with a suit that resist pale damage, and therefore a problem. The way I was able to reliably research this was a dance with Child of the Galaxy - get a V-class nugget with a stone that could USUALLY survive working with the bird, keep working with Child with other nuggets at the same time so it doesn't hit 0, and then get those boxes. Once I had the suit I would class it as S tho just cause it is easy to contain and just has the best armor and weapon I have seen so far.
Funeral of Dead Butterflies - Again, coming from Ruina I am just a sucker for Solemn Lament's pings. Wish they were on the agent weapon too. Again, pretty easy to deal with even if it breaches and the weapon dealing white and black means it is so useful against a wide variety of threats.
Letitia - Just here cause really easy to deal with and has a good weapon, would otherwise be lower.
Dream of a Black Swan - Sadly (or not) I have not seen the actual swan yet (I assume it shows up when the counter hits 0), but this is because the counter hitting 0 has never happened and otherwise it's a good justice trainer and has good equipment for a HE.
Ppodae - Just cause it breaches easily and is just as easy to suppress. Also its big form looks funny.
B for Boring:
Forsaken Murderer, Buggy healing bracelet, Behaviour Adjustment, Fairy Festival, Lady Facing the Wall, All-Around Helper, Leticia, Old Lady (with a nice ranged White weapon tho), Spider Bud, Can of Well-Cheers, honestly all the tools that don't kill you for no reason.
These all are okay, they barely do anything and are usually just easy to keep a handle on (mostly for being HE or lower).
The Annoying Ones:
Express Train to Hell - FUUUCK this I don't want to have to work with something every 2:30 just to not have a reset.
Parasite Tree - This bitch is jealous and I hate it. At least I can click people out of its meltdown but gods is it annoying.
Nameless Fetus would likely be in B except for the fact that it somehow melted down a lot for me (might have just missed clowns or meltdowns cause I got it the first time I got central and the size was wild). The weapon is nice (ranged white weapons! Yay!) and the effect is something I was able to deal with in the playthrough cause only the Murderer was next to it, but being unable to end it without saccing a good employee at random sucked.
Teddy Bear - I hate memory games :(
Schadenfreude and Burrowing Heaven - These are easy to deal with but GODS are they easy for me to forget when meltdowns or ordeals happen too. I know I can basically ignore them 99% of the time but it's just 1 mistake and my best nugget with my best gear is dead and I am retrying the day <.<
Meat Lantern - FUUUCK this thing the last day before my first memory reset it kept planting itself under the doors my best agents were working behind. I just researched this, got its equipment and then yeeted it from my facility with a memory reset. Hate abnos that check for low stats.
Ones I don't know about:
Mountain of Bodies caused my first reset but I was also just unprepared for Aleph-class entities cause it was my very first run - I feel like I miiight be able to deal with it now, and I hear its equipment is good.
Il Pianto della Luna - seemed pretty easy to keep happy, no idea what happens if it breaches - but I never really used the performance (never thrice, just once to try it) so idk what happens there. Its suit and weapon are nice tho as long as you don't need to be pale resistant.
Big and Will Be Bad Wolf - only had him for a day or two before resetting. Love the flavour - both the fairy tail and the idea that he chose to be bad cause everyone told him he would end up a villain anyway. He eats people but you can make him spit them out? Doesn't sound like the worst abno to deal with and it suit looks great.
Knight of Despair - Love her aesthetic and loved her in Ruina too. Annoying that she basically makes a nugget useless apart from fighting (and being extra vulnerable to Pale sounds possibly horrible later on), but her making the agent into a suppression machine IS nice and her suit was the second one I ever saw that had below 1.5x damage taken from Pale, so I like her already. Also seems to be pretty easy to keep contained as long as you do not yolo the shielded employee.
Army in Black - I KNOW they are a fake Zayin (which is obvious just from energy generation and how much their stuff costs). I just picked them and am hoping that they will be at all possible to contain, have heard some horror stories but I am really happy with my equipment so far so I'll see how it goes. Worst case I retry from day 1 for more low level encyclopedia filling again.
So this is my assessment so far. Sorry for all the rambling, just wanted to talk to people about this cause I am really liking this game a ton!

I really want to get into game development but every tutorial I’ve found just tells me to basically copy and paste what they type without really explaining what it’s doing. What are the best tutorials for a complete beginner?

Say I am playing a game and would like to assign say my down arrow to refresh whatever webpage is open in Google chrome
Is it possible while I'm playing to press down arrow and have it refresh webpage in google chrome without me having to alt tab out of the game or that's not possible?
Cos right now while playing, I have to alt tab, press refresh, then go back into the game and so that got me thinking there has to be a more better way to do this?
I understand the application is exclusive full screen but for example with media keys, you can be in a game and without having to alt tab, if you press start button on your media key then media starts playing instantly
Thanks!
