Usually don’t like jumping on the US healthcare = bad bandwagon, but jeeze having these shithole insurance companies in the middle looks awful.
It’s as simple as a doctor giving you a script and the chemist dispensing it here, thank fuck the government takes care of the rest
Finally, was wondering where exactly these things would have been used 😮
If you don’t have the strength to physically get it back then I guess you’ll have to live with the loss tbh
Your membership to the service is now worse off comparatively, so the benefits you receive have shrunk. Shrinkflation feels pretty apt here
Game was worth picking up for a dollar on a 14 day Xbox PC game pass trial membership. I got to see first hand how dogshit the performance is! Look at these great numbers (medium settings, no DOF, no volumetrics, 1440p, no vsync)
Look at it absolutely obliterate my 4090 and push my 13900k to the limit. Love to see games released in this state…
It’s performance, especially on top of the line hardware (13900k + 4090) is dogshit yeah? Just so we’re under no illusions about the state this game was released in.
The icing on the cake is colossal orders gaslighting saying that there’s no practical benefit to having anything above 30 FPS, as if there’s not a tangible benefit to playing games at a smooth 60FPS compared to a sloppy 30 FPS
Also worth noting that Skylines 2 comes out on Xbox game pass day 1. You can usually pick up a trial for a fortnight, that’s a pretty perfect opportunity to try this on PC (to see how bad it runs for you)
That’s what I’ll be doing, trying it out and most likely skipping it for a few months while they polish it up
You can pick up game pass (which skylines 2 will be coming out on the 24th)
It’s only a buck for 14 days (though that might be region specific) so I’m definitely going to pick it up and give it a go to see how bad the performance is
They’re ugly looking now, that’s the issue. skylines 2 definitely is an improvement over 1, but it’s not an astronomical improvement (like the difference you’d notice with some franchises moving from unreal engine 4 to 5)
The amount of raw performance needed to power this game is what’s shocking. It’s just a lack of optimisation.
I think I’m pretty confident in saying most people aren’t interested in sub 60 FPS, especially if it’s at 1080p and looking the way it does (which is mostly flat and unimpressive)
That’s the most shocking part, the high-end hardware needed to brute force a 1080p game at acceptable framerates
Really disappointed that after a solid 3-4 months of dev diaries, open communication and hype for the game, they drop this performance bombshell on us at the last moment.
They get points for at least giving everyone a weeks notice, but that’s clearly a calculated move (compared to if they kept it quiet entirely and it launched with people unaware)
I’m not instead on playing sub 60 FPS games at 1080p, especially not when I’ve got a 4090+13900k and it crushes almost every other game in existence. The game isn’t pretty enough to justify such terrible performance, it’s just purely unoptimized now.
Why there’s no DLSS / FSR also at launch is baffling, it helps GPU bottlenecked necked games greatly (even if boosting from a native 30 to 60 is a bit yuck)
Really disappointed
Good, glad this shithouse comment is getting the proper downvotes
Tired of these half baked shithouse total war games like pharaoh, troy and britannia. It must be so hard to develop a sequel to medieval, Rome or any of the other successful franchises that people actually want to play
Love these low quality ones. Gives a nice homely vibe
A gut wrenching mistake, hopefully you’ll only make it once!
They can’t be trusted. They already tried to slip their hand into your pocket and now that it’s been successfully smacked away they’re trying to act apologetic. The only time I want people getting their hands in my pocket is when I’m getting a handy, not when they’re trying to take unearned dollars because they need to boost their bottom line
we are still here
Yes, people don’t leave occupied land. It’s never happened historically and certainly won’t happen now, that’s the point of occupation. People can acknowledge what happened but in practical terms thinking that somehow all native land will be returned is just naive.
So the same as literally every other country in existence yeah?
Pretty happy with Brave, but I’m guessing that being a downstream chromium fork they’ll eventually be stuffed and forced into using V3?
