Just Trump again giving unwelcome kisses to his stage partner, but when women accuse him of the same thing conservatives don’t believe it. He’s showing you who he is.

And make sure the time is synced to the cloud so they need internet connection, and so the player can’t be sneaky and reload the game to reset the timer if they pressed x too many times

I can’t stand games like this. You would be lucky if it was only 45 minutes… and then they will tech you how to make every goddamn step cos god forbid you might need your brain at any point

I’ve heard you can pre-order the ultimate mega edition of AAA Game 2 for only £300! It comes with a season pass (but they’ll never finish the roadmap), and extra DLC that isn’t in the season pass too! You’ll still need to buy the extra extra DLC to get the full experience though…

Meanwhile star citizen with no loading screens once you’re in the world

Because they have infinite time and money to finish it. They have achieved what many big publishers cannot, they have effectively turned a game into a bank and everyone trusts them and likes them for it.

XeroxCool ,

Does it have transition animations or is it actually smooth? Asking from Elite Dangerous where the transition sequences feel pretty immersove to me. Each solar system is an instance with a wormhole jump between. Sublight and FTL have a charge/dropout sequence. The worst is switching between ship/rover/foot where the screen goes black and you hear footsteps. So what does SC do?

ryannathans ,

Smooth as heck, flying from space to planet surface. There is quantum travel between distant objects but it’s not there to hide anything, you can very quickly travel from a planet to its moons for example (seconds)

So Star Citizen actually does No Man’s Sky travel, but better? Interesting.

ryannathans ,

Yeah, it’s being reworked slightly atm so the animations will be much cooler but the concept is essentially identical

    The real joke would have been

    A free campaign with a multiplayer menu that allows you to spend $100 or play slot machines for hours to acquire a T-shirt for your character.

    Have you tried The First Descendant yet? It’s pretty rough with load times and beats the cap out a graphics card. Is that considered AAA?

    most of the time it’s poor optimization

    Almost every time. That’s what’s being made fun of…

    Those 5-10‰ of the time are absolutely excruciating when you’ve gotten used to SSD gaming, though. Especially when you have moderate to severe ADHD so any kind of waiting sets the Gears of Distraction in motion lol.

    And it’s almost always an AAA game even though those are the ones with the LEAST excuse for not being optimized

    Ephera ,

    I thought, this was about server wait times in online games…

    MonkeMischief ,

    Dunno sometimes it’s gotta be something with their asset loading methodology. I put Battletech on my NVME and it still had crazy like 3-5-minute loads. A mod fixes it really well though and made the otherwise-great game much more playable.

    SSDs are expensive, HDDs are not and already exist for blu ray and Linux ISO storage.

    Yeah I built my pc two years ago. Didn’t bother with an ssd, wound up getting 4tb of ssd last year because it needed it (well I thought that’s what it needed, it did need it, but my problem was in addition to dragging over my old hdds I also just kept the same 8gb ram stick, turns out games actually run when you have 32gb ram)

    desktop_user ,

    I personally just compensate for my HDD array’s slowness with RAM. Cyberpunk 2077 runs at more than 30fps on an rx580 being loaded off a HDD with 20GB RAM on Linux.

    pyre ,

    it’s not just that though, AAA gameplay has largely evolved to waste time. pointless side quests, pointless collectibles, pointless giant maps, pointlessly going from one end of the map to the other back and forth just to complete some bullshit quest, pointless grinding…

    well i say pointless, but there is actually a reason to make playing these games such a chore.

    fine; i was pointing out that it was applicable to other things since it does require a button input.

    So the minutes long preload of shaders in dragons dogma 2 was just a me thing? I have been meaning to update.

    SuperSaiyanSwag ,

    Whenever people complain about AAA games I wonder what games they are playing compared to me.

    pyre ,

    Lately, it’s been Hades II, Jusant, trying to finish Cocoon, and I’m gonna retry starting Outer Worlds (couldn’t get into it before for some reason).

    But I can’t really give you a comprehensive list since playing indie games usually means playing tons of different stuff all the time. These are just my very current games at this point.

    I do play some AAA games. C2077 was pretty good; I finished the main game but still haven’t gotten into the DLC though. I also still regularly play Overwatch, begrudgingly. I like the gameplay but still hate the monetization and the fact that there is no real competition that scratches the same itch.

    SuperSpruce ,

    That’s not true with me. Forza Horizon 5 takes 90 seconds to load on my 970 Evo Plus. Cities Skylines with some mods takes 3 minutes.

    I think what you mean is that this joke will work fine again by the tail end of 2025 despite the prevalence of SSDs.

    Impeached TWICE? HOW?!

    Jyek ,

    Impeachment is not the same as being removed from office. It is the first step to the process however. Impeachment is the bringing of charges against an official in office. Once charges are brought, a trial must be held on the Senate with the Chief Supreme Court Justice presiding. If the trial ends in a conviction, the result is removal from office. However, the Chief Justice for nearly the past 20 years is a staunchly conservative man appointed by the 2nd bush administration in 2005.

    Impeachment was never really a threat to Trump while in office. Just a way for Congress to tell the president that they know the bad shit he’s doing and they don’t like it. As long as the supreme court remains absolutely stacked with conservative appointees, there will never be a removal of office of a favored Republican president.
