Computer games and that

No I haven’t tbh but the initial couple of hours of play did nothing to encourage me to go back to it. It would have to improve a lot - prob just not my thing.

I look forward to where I have time and then know it goes somewhere

It doesn’t go anywhere, it is a computer game, your time is wasted :grinning:

The pursuit of pleasure , we are all trapped

3.5/5

It’s an open world shooter, my preferred kind of game, with loads of little side quests and sub-games.

The actual script, however, is pretty annoying. Long-winded exposition, unskippable videos, and repeated “abductions” where you’re forced to watch more videos and perform tasks when they say, not you.

Finally I fell into (what now turns out to be) a notoriously glitchy mission that I can’t quit and can’t complete.

If you like open world stuff, I’m assuming you’ve tried Skyrim?

Wife has a £1500 Amazon voucher that she plans to use for a laptop, primarily for her uni work, but she would ideally like it to be as good as possible for gaming. I know fuck all about PC gaming so would appreciate thoughts- as far as I can tell the Asus AMD Ryzen ones seem to be a decent bet but that’s as far as I’ve managed to get. Could go over a bit but prefer to give Jeffy boy as little as possible over what he’s already got from her employer. Any advice or recommendations greatly appreciated!

I finally managed to get into and complete Witcher 3 this year, really enjoyed it in the end although I got the worst possible ending. Still got the dlc’s to play.

Edit: last year!

Would this be a decent option? Is the 1* review saying this isn’t a gaming laptop at all and if you buy this you are a lowly casual just standard internet “connoisseur-ism” (being kind)?

With the massive caveat that I am not a gaming laptop expert by any stretch, the observation I would have is that the 4060 is a very underwhelming desktop gfx card. The laptop version would probably be equally meh.

But as ever, depends what game you want to play.

Thanks. Certainly no expectations of being able to play the latest games at high/ max settings, or even at all. Basically looking for something that isn’t an unoptimised mess of components chosen for marketing reasons, if that makes sense?

Most likely to play older games not available on PlayStation. Personally I’d be happy if I could play Dark Souls III on holiday. Elden Ring at passable settings would be a bonus, or something like Disco Elysium.

The new Nvidia cards announced this week look incredible.

Certainly some incredible marketing.

Jensen is the man.:sunglasses:

Just finished Cyberpunk. Done the various endings.
Had a couple of days on the side missions etc. to experience some of the extras… which didn’t happen.

In sheer frustration I checked the version: 1.6 something. Quick google and I was on the PS4 version. FML. Had to manually update and now it’s the slinky 2.2 PS5 version. Bit late as I’m done with it.
