CK2 itself is done too, that's why most people are shifting to mod CK3 now. Oh please. They can Mend the Schism, but Catholics can't. What more do you want!?

Well, I don't want to get into this debate, because it's personal experience at all, and I'm really not one of those guys who gets all passionate about his platform of choice, I really am not. That being said, I disagree big time. >PC master race >Gives up immediately You are a disgrace to your kind. …Just kidding of course, I also am not. Actually, I’m slightly inclined to agree with you, I just don’t really have room for a PC in my room and wouldn’t want to game anywhere else. That’s really it.

Honestly, I know the meme is "PC master race" but until the price of entery stops being super high for the good ones, it can't really be called the "master race" yet.

Acacia Sgt Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 (edited) Admittedly, it wasn't all me. Once the Mongols went Catholic... well, they're the reason half of India is Catholic.

Codename Shrimp Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 The problem is that currently the graphic card prices are sky high due to the whole crypto thing A few years ago i got my current PC for a good price and it's been working well since.

Yeah, price was probably the biggest issue until recently, and the only reason it fell slightly was because my parent got more money. 2 minutes ago, Saint Rubenio said: Honestly, I've never gotten that.

null Posted June 9, 2021 Share Posted June 9, 2021 Looking back I regret not just getting a beefy laptop instead of my Macbook, since it would've been cheaper overall, as far as emulation and other things are concerned.

Like, dude, could you even tell the difference if you didn't have a program that puts a number in a corner of the screen? Below 60 is where I start noticing the difference, but above? There's just nothing... 6 minutes ago, Sooks said: I’d want a powerful laptop because I like playing games from the comfort of my bed. I got my laptop for I think like, 1200-1300€, and it's beefy enough to run pretty much every game I throw at it without issue. The price is definitely rather steep, but it's not as bad as you'd imagine, and a good computer will last you a good few years, in my experience.

This is also why PC hasn't killed consoles. Yeah, I've been browsing the gaming laptops (full-fledged desktop PCs costing more) and I've settled on which to get, an Asus ROG Zephyrus G14.

I'm waiting for a sale to shed another hundred or so. -This is "moderately priced" for a gaming laptop.

There's a reason most games either cap or have the option to cap at 60 - it's the perfect spot where people can't really tell the difference. Those people who demand that their games run at like 300 FPS are just... I don't get it, honestly. Why?

Sounds feasible to me, the game is linear, with little in the way of optional content, other than a bonus dungeon in the PSP version if you unlocked it, and no roaming- Ein moves from screen to screen. The only grinding you can do is mastering weapons for more stat ups, which won't take that long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
