    Rimworld - strategy base building sci-fi indie game

    I'm optimistic it won't. My understanding is that the Rimworld DLC if not installed, doesn't impact your game in anyway and it's truly vanilla. Whereas Stellaris forces the DLC upon your game, you just can't access it (while the AI can)

    Haha - my son is - however I have enjoyed doing a little manager career with him :cry:

    I think I've figured it out! Looks like my TV had switched off of Game mode at some point and I hadn't noticed - playing silky smooth now!

    Nope it's absolutely terrible. It goes through 10-15 seconds really stuttering about 4-5 times a match on Career mode. I've cleared the cache, rebuilt the database and disabled the online play on the off chance it was for some reason still connecting even on single player. No dice. When it's...

    He's only playing offline, could network still be an issue (e.g. is it calling home I wonder). Might force it offline and see if it improves

    Just picked this up for my son, is it normal to have terrible stuttering and frame drops on the PS5? It performs terribly.

    Gran Turismo 7

    It's not being review-bombed purely because of the online element. They've cut many of the ways to earn money - quite understandably people think it's a way to force MTX down peoples throats. GT7 was already very demanding of time to grind out some of the higher / rarer cars - it's now...

    *The Official PlayStation 5 (PS5) Thread*

    I'm personally really happy with how they've approached it without the exploit. Progression in the loops is a lot more subtle in Returnal compared to other rogue games, but it's definitely there. Constantly bashing your head against the game using the above method won't unlock the higher...

    I really don't know how people consistently generate the funds to do all these SBC's etc. The amount of times I come against teams with 5/6 special cards. - I've managed the Bernardo Silva one this week which I'm chuffed at. I guess I just can't play enough/well enough to get them higher end...

    PS5 compatible headset recommendations?

    I got this and love it: https://steelseries.com/gaming-headsets/arctis-9 The dual connection means I can play the PS5 but still use things like Discord etc to be able to chat with friends not necessarily playing on the PS5 as well.

    *The Official PlayStation 5 (PS5) Thread*

    Yeh they aren't for everyone, I think I really started to understand them after watching a few YouTubers playing them smarter than I did. Understanding the synergies and the crazy interactions is really cool. Enter the Gungeon has some awesome gameplay, it's a really solid game and some of the...

    *** Nintendo Switch ***

    In what scope? In terms of exclusives? If I think about the past year some of my most played games have been on the Switch (but also available elsewhere). Hades Ori Animal Crossing All games in the past year that have been really great on Switch! Yeh I used to play them a lot - Really...

    *** Nintendo Switch ***

    How many are getting Monster Hunter Rise? I'm really excited for it, always a day 1 purchase for me is a MH game. The new changes are really fun in the demo - enjoying the challenge and tweaks made to the combat/quality of life.

    Cyberpunk 2077

    Aren't the reviews averaging slightly above 9/10? Not exactly average reviews - but do acknowledge the particularly jarring bugs somewhat ruining the experience.

    Dug out an Old Machine

    Thanks everyone, encouraging responses. I've ordered a USB stick so I can upgrade to Windows 10 and a usb wireless dongle to get it online. I have 8gb RAM and I have a small SSD that I'll use for the boot drive. About 3tb of Samsung F2 drives as well.

    Dug out an Old Machine

    Found an old machine, wondering what it would take to get it doing something decent. It's an i5 3570k with a Radeon 7950, had decent cooling and overclock on it. Booted it up and running (but with no internet) I mainly game on the PS4/Console but wouldn't mind having a PC for some other...

    *** Nintendo Switch ***

    Got a PowerA Gamecube style controller for the Switch. The slight movement of buttons is playing havok with my muscle memory on Smash Brother :P. Feels a lot more solid and suitable for the game though so I'll persevere.

    *** Nintendo Switch ***

    Haha, there are a few names that were spewing absolute hatred. End of Nintendo, there will never be another generation of Nintendo hardware, only hipsters will buy this etc. Funny looking at the post history of a few of those people who appear back in here talking about their favourite games :P

    Animal Crossing: New Horizons

    Found my first island last night with a non-native fruit. So naturally did the western thing and pillaged it of all it's trees, rocks, flowers and even people (invited obviously) Think I managed to bring back about 10 trees to the Island which will make a great dent in the ability to pay off...
