And there’s going to be dumbasses on the internet believing that you aren’t getting good games because of feminism or minorities being represented, and if you get good games it’s because we somehow eliminated all woke people or something.

The Outer, Outer Worlds?

What CPU do you have? When you said stutters did you mean like low fps like me? I’ve had my game crash many times because I was travelling through different planets

My experience was 30-40 fps during hub > takeoff > crash > veryfying files

I always believed that they didn’t expect the game would go that big and now they don’t know what to do to cover their own asses.

I installed it because of the free flight that ends tomorrow and it ran horrible on my nvme ssd, I’m talking about freezes when traveling 5-10 fps in space, 30-40 while in the hub, funny thing is that I think it ran better years ago when I was again testing it for a free flight with my Nvidia GPU

So two reasons either it’s a me issue because I have an AMD GPU though yet again, I don’t think so.

Or it’s still really unoptimized, which is a shame because I really like the premise of the game, I like the scale of it and it did things better than Starfield.

Well, my whole point about affordability is that a lot of people don’t have the time or energy to mostly care about anything else, I mean a lot of good intentioned people do care about social issues but unless you improve their material position then they will not care, Trump promised that he would improve their living conditions and yeah I knew it was bs, but they didn’t, do they deserve it yeah probably however my point is a lot of us have the luxury to talk about social issues, most people do not, most people suffer upon really bad conditions.

To be honest with you I don’t know a lot, and yeah I guess that’s your point but I remember reading The will to change: men, masculinity, and love by beli hooks back in my 2015 phase and I don’t remember a lot from it, but I think it made some good points.

I think toxic podcasts have a big influence on young men, especially those who grew up without strong father figures. My own dad wasn’t perfect (I joke a bit about it on my profile), and many of us went through that risky “2015 phase” of consuming unhealthy online content.

What many politicians and advocates on the left often overlook is that toxic masculinity isn’t solved by telling men to be “less masculine.” You can actually counter unhealthy masculinity with healthy masculinity. Instead of shaming men, we should be teaching a better version of manhood one that includes therapy, emotional intelligence, and being able to talk honestly about what’s going on inside.

As corny as it sounds there’s a reason when there’s a bad take by a misinformed feminist calling all men evil on twitter ganders a response like “This is why men turn right” and sure while that stuff doesn’t work on me anymore, It’s not 2015-2016 there’s still some vulnerable people that unfortunately fall for it, does that mean though that the feminist is wrong in her views? Not really, but I’m not talking about myself I’m talking about a lot of men that do fall for it.

Most working-class men who grind through 9–5 jobs, going from shift to shift, are worried about affordability and stability. If someone comes along and says “I’m going to make your life easier,” that’s who they’ll vote for even if it’s Trump. You can call them naïve or say the leopards ate their face or whatever , but the reality is that many of these men are desperate for change. And they’ll keep voting for whoever promises that change. When society pushes these men aside or dismisses them, some end up looking for someone to blame. That’s when you get people saying, “Women are the reason my life is hard,” or “Jews control everything.”

Of course, some people are genuinely racist or sexist, and there will always be trolls who just want attention. But why do those trolls exist in the first place? Often it’s because they feel insignificant, and attaching themselves to extreme movements gives them a sense of identity and purpose they don’t have otherwise.

Thank you, may I ask why you downscale and then upscale again rather than just take what Iris gives you

I have them on steam and I still boot up Galactic Conquest from time to time, but playing it with a friend on the controller was amazing.

Star Wars Battlefront 1 was the first PC game I ever played and loved.

If you have the full settings with Iris and Handbrake for me in a screenshot, thank you. I wanna upload some content when I’ll return to Reddit.

Is Iris much faster than you, also how do you convert it?

It’s embarassing how absolutely shit the GPU market is, I’ve lost any hope. I felt the same way with CPUs not too long ago before Ryzen but now the CPU market is vastly more interesting to follow, GPUs are just stale.

No I meant in Topaz Labs.

What models do you recommend usually for AMD cards?

SOCOM can’t be beat, Star Wars Battlefront was also fun, Ratchet and Clank was a classic for me.

I’ve said this before that typically people don’t know what they are talking about AI, but I don’t expect this from people who SHOULD know what AI is.

There could be technologies that AI can assist with, hell I’m not a game dev but I assume even back in the day, devs used tricks and technologies that today could be considered as AI

However AI as in it will write you code, generate you a game and write you a story? Hell no.

Do you have any recommendations, I used to upscale and restore old Trailers, Videos, Porn and etc. I don’t remember what model I used but I always used flowframes for 60fps interpolation

I don’t, I have a 6700xt I don’t remember much about my settings but It’s quite slow when upscaling to 4K.

The 9070XT is a good card for the price, and that doesn’t tell us a lot, there’s going to be markets where AMD does better and some where Nvidia does better, as an AMD user I feel like they still fall behind with their drivers, I’ve had many Driver timeouts with my RX6700XT just because I was hitting alt tab on CS2, I’ve never had it on Nvidia.

Also someone who does a lot of upscaling with Topaz I would have loved to see AMD making some serious grounds there there’s no reason why they should be that behind with content creators, I don’t think we’ll ever see the GPU department catching up as the CPU did with Ryzen but I feel like everytime Nvidia fucks something up, AMD does the same so It’s a game of who’s going to fuck up more.

I bought the 6700xt just because I was contemplating on the 3070 but I saw it was an 8GB VRAM card and I thought yeah miss me with that shit.
