Exactly. They're maybe the minority but every one who played D2 and D3 with me along the years have given up on D4 after a month. They preferred going back to D2R.

I wonder what % of the player base has disappeared from the game since launch.

Interesting, I'll be a day one buyer, it seems fun!

Sadly, they won't change the naming scheme as more naive people still buy in the "micro" aspect of the name.

Good, and it deserves it. I bought multiple copies over the years and sunk way more than 3000h in this game. Congrats Mojang/Microsoft.

I don't know much about Acer's proprietary software but there must be some place that you can set your battery to charge up to 60-80%. If you plan to use it while plugged most of the time, choose that option, it will extend your battery life.

Yes, with the proper care, your laptop can last you many years. It all comes down to how you handle it and maintain it.

First, you want to play on high/60fps but at what resolution? Paying over 1700$CAD for a RTX4090 GPU seems overkill while a RX6800 or a RX7700/7800 would let you play at 1080p/1440p at high settings at a fraction of the price.

SSD is fine.

PSU could be reduced to 850W.

64GB RAM is overkill for gaming right now but potentially useful in the upcoming years.

Bottom line, you could save here and there and still have a capable AM5 machine.

If you want value for your buck, build yourself an AM4 machine. Yes, AM5 is out now but your rig could still last you many many years with the right AM4 components.

It is. However, if you can grab it through Gamepass Ultimate, go for it. You could buy a couple months worth of subscription and cancel it once you're done with the game. It would be cheaper than buying it upfront.

Oh don't misunderstand me, I know it's meaningless.

I was just wondering why some people are stuffing up their numbers and calling out other gamers for having less expertise than them based on playtime.

Thanks for your answer!

He's a doctor in an ICU unit. Our job just doesn't let us play at work (and it's a good thing).

Thanks for your answer!

I like it the way it is, even if the number of weekly/monthly posts has drastically dropped recently.

However, it is not happening only on PC Gaming; most redditors who left Reddit following the 3rd party apps closure backlash are going back there anyway. My province's Lemmy community (New-Brunswick) hasn't seen a new post/thread in the last fifty-ish days.

I know that I should do more to keep the communities I participate in alive but I'm still getting used to Lemmy/Jerboa.

Bottom line, PC Gaming is doing alright. Thanks for your work!

From their perspective, there must be a lengthier, more expensive solution that'll still give money to lobbyists and corporations.

Simple solutions just don't work.

Germany's Chancellor, Olaf Scholz, had a jogging incident and is wearing an eye patch to cover the bruises. The picture just screams "use me for good memes".
