I LOVED the original Delta Force game. Still have fond memories. Second was pretty decent too. All went downhill from there.
This looks more like Battlefield than Delta Force. Delta Force is meant to be tactical and realistic while still being accessible.
All fair points. I wasn’t trying to argue, just to have a friendly discourse :) My calling it a “game of magnitude” is obviously very open to interpretation.
For what it’s worth what I was trying to say was that this game has the potential to be unlike any game before it, so it’d be a shame to miss out on it just to avoid a minor hardware upgrade. But that in itself is of course also subjective. Suffice to say I myself won’t be missing out… :p
To each their own of course, but out of the 4 games you named in your comment I would definitely rank BG3 on top on a scale of “market disruption”.
That said this is all highly subjective of course. One person’s game of the year is another person’s biggest disappointment.
I’m guessing one of those is Baldurs Gate, but I’m struggling to think of two more. There’s been some decent games for sure but none other that I’d put on the same scale. Diablo 4 had the potential but squandered it imo.
Yeah that’s fair. It might even be worth waiting a year so the community can fix all the bugs :p I know I’m too impulsive to wait that long though. Played through Cyberpunk at launch and loved it!
Sure. And of course it remains to be seen whether Starfield is worth it, but it’s undeniable that a game of this magnitude isn’t a common occurrence. If they realize the game’s potential, then missing out on it because of a relatively inexpensive hardware upgrade seems like a shame.
You do realize storage drives aren’t exactly expensive?
Gotcha… From reading all the responses, it sounds like the word and meaning itself isn’t really objectionable, it’s more the people that use it. Which isn’t something a search engine tells you… 😅
Lol… it definitely reminds you of how old you’re getting. But I’m sure the generations preceding ours felt the same.
I’m getting old … what does this mean and why is it objectionable? Google suggests it means they have strong character, which seems like a fair assessment.
It is nearly impossible to find good product comparisons these days. Nearly all of them are generated off of Amazon reviews, which are terribly unreliable. I used to just append Reddit to the end of my search but now that isn’t much of an option anymore either…
I wouldn’t be surprised if it is getting worse. It’s not “real” intelligence that “understands” your questions, and unlike more targeted solutions like GitHub copilot they don’t have a strong use-case focus that can guide their progress.
But I think it’s also that people are coming to terms with what ChatGPT actually can and more importantly cannot do. It’s crazy sometimes to hear what the average person thinks the current iteration of AI’s is capable of.
I’m looking to upgrade my iPhone 11 for no reason other than the battery life is starting to bug me. None of the features released since the 11 hold any interest for me, I literally just want more battery life. Looks like that’ll cost me about $1000 if I want to stay with iOS. Absolutely insane.
Bethesda is guilty of not giving away their game for free? I really hope I’m misunderstanding what you are trying to say.
