I'd love the initiative to start something that would overflow to us here in Canada.
There are a couple games in my Steam library that are just dormant due to the servers being shut down. Having the possibility to own and run a server for these games would be awesome.
Edit: Misread the articles, my bad.
We wish but they'll never go away. Die hard fans and whales are going to buy the games no matter what plus all the microtransactions included.
I have the 7700XT. I game at 1440p/120fps quite easily with mid-to-high settings. I don't regret it one bit; my previous GPU was a GTX1060 3GB variant.
I watched the solo dev play it on Steam. Oh boy, that's a steep learning curve. I might give it a shot but it definitely doesn't target casual players.
Edit; Not limited to but they were the ones listed when I first opened the article. Sorry if I misread and/or if they updated the article afterwards.
Don't misunderstand me, I know very well the USA can interfere with our stuff, they do it on a daily basis. They surely do it to every country they can as well.
We, Canadians, probably interfere or at least try to, in other countries too.
What I meant is the more actors there are, the more difficult it is to break free from it.
Glad we still have elections on paper, somewhat safer than electronic ones.
China, Russia, Iran.
Why would it be anyone else.
Why not have both instead of replacing the RCMP?
Yes it would be expensive but if residents want more coverage, that would be one way to increase it.
Apparently people didn't get the notice. Mortgage interest rates are still >5% for anyone renewing now. Three new houses are being built right now in the street behind mine.
Weird how our neighbourhood didn't see any new buildings from 2016-2022 but now it rains, it pours.
They could be pulling out of the GPU market but I'm unaware of that. I still hear people waiting for the Battlemage lineup so I guessed they were still in with a planned release on Q4 2024.
Otherwise, thanks for the heads-up!
Not necessarily killing it but the future is geared towards AI and machine learning. People and companies working in that sector don't mind dishing out 3K$ for a GPU, leaving desktop PC gamers in the dust.
Aside from Nvidia, I bought a 7800XT last Christmas. No drivers issues at all and plays almost everything at 1440p/120fps on medium-to-high settings. Don't forget Intel's upcoming in the GPU industry as well.
Damn, I misread the articles. Still a good thing if it goes forward.
