  • Greatest arpg of all time. Runs better than PoE1 lmao. (No, for real, it’s waaaaaay better optimized)

    It needs balancing for sure but the core is pretty good, with some balancing tweaks it’s gonna be incredible.

    Mild criticism that the article doesn’t seem to mention, probably because they are not a PoE1 player: the endgame is pretty fucking boring. Not because it lacks content, but because decoupling the entrance key (waystone/map) from the zone/layout doesn’t really make it “infinite” as they say. If you think about it, on PoE1 you also have an infinite endgame since each map has a fixed tileset and in both poe1 and poe2 you search for zones with good layouts. All this map of tilesets does is force you to do undesirable layouts and since you only need A tier X map, map sustain becomes trivial.

    The endgame quests really need some thinking, it’s not okay that the core gameplay loop incentivizes you to clear zones around tower heavy areas to optimize your use of empowering tablets, but the endgame quests incentivise you to ignore all that empowered content and to run in a single direction, to find the special endgame zones. I do like to put some tablets and clear all boss maps that were boosted in an area, but it feels bad to do when you have those quests objectives telling you to find the fortresses.

    I totally get that it’s EA and they created the endgame in a single month just for the EA, but this needs to be said so that when they start refining it there’s a history of feedback around the mechanics.

    In any case, I have very good hopes that the endgame will be excellent on release with the amount of feedback they are receiving, and as long as they keep increasing the customization of the map generation, the amount of extra content and the amount of layouts (don’t worry, they will), it’s gonna easily beat PoE1.





  • Given that Democrats pulled less votes than 2020, it’s not the undecided between D&R that decided this election, it’s the ones undecided between D or not voting. As stupid of a choice that is, those are the ones that voted way less in this election, and those voters maybe would have voted more if the platform was more anti-elite. I don’t know how many swingers would pass to R with that move, though.

    Really stupid to not vote in protest because D is not left enough since that mathematically is equivalent to voting the winner, in this case R. In any case, going more left might have helped more.

    It’s all you said, but it’s also a product of it’s time. Iirc when it release there was an increasing amount of simulator games, and goat simulator pokes fun to all of those while having tons of silly references to the contemporary things.

    The successors don’t have much of s point to me tbh.




  • I’ve beaten the original and the rerelease several times. it’s pretty generic but the combat animations are cool enough to give it a go when I’m bored. I usually play it on the hardest difficulty but the bow charged spread attack works like a shotgun so it’s very easy to stunlock enemies.

    It’s one of those games where you can overpower enemies quite easily if you prepare, I would not play it on easy though, if the story is bland and the combat is braindead, what’s the point of the game?


  • Because it was the west that decided to invade in 2014, it was the west that made Ukraine feel so fucking vulnerable for 8 years that they decided to turn into NATO, and then it was the west again who sent tanks into Kiev. Yeah.

    I’m not blind to not see that this benefits the US, but honestly, it looks like an opportunity for the west, not something they provoked. If Russia didn’t want the west to benefit so much from it maybe they shouldn’t have had invaded in 2014 because the people of a separate sovereign country revolted against the Russian puppet President.

    I’ve not had those while working with concurrent programs with c++ for over a year. Pointers, QT programming, non-qt backend programming, coding an engine to work with computer vision runners (openvino mostly), image management (more pointers)… Idk, this is gonna sound rude but just code better? Most of my errors were segfaults, I have had to plug the debugger and/or tons of prints and I made it work.

    If you want to see giant error logs, check pyspark errors. But even those have the relevant line of info and then all the rest of the garbage info that no one really needs, like any other language.




  • Windows: exists

    Crowdstrike: exists

    Windows: open belly, right here!

    Crowdstrike: stabs

    Crowdstrike released bad code into prod without giving it some hours of testing in local machines or whatever. Incredible fuckup, inimaginable. But, let’s not take blame out of Microsoft, if a driver is faulty the system should be resilient enough no to crap the bed on login. At least enough for IT to be able to remotely access the system and fix it. The manual work the IT world has had to do because it’s lost remote access to workstations is insane.
