The guy who uploaded the video that corporate content farm is “reporting” on actually covers exactly why this happens. In short, the gba plays sound from a certain part of ram, which a cpu interrupt continously refreshes. In the event of a crash, it keeps playing sound, but doesn’t get the interrupt to keep it playing the proper data from ram. If you let it cycle through all of ram, it eventually leaks out and just starts playing, well, everything else, eventually getting to the game rom. RelevantVideos
Sega has a surprising amount of stuff under their belt. The Yakuza games would be the biggest example. Atlus and all the megami tensei series are Sega.

Your last paragraph is spot on. When I bought a 4090, frame generation wasn’t even a consideration. I’m already throwing money into my computer to get the best framerate on the consumer market using a single card. I have no need for smudgy frames when I can already shove max settings through the card for 60+ fps on most everything I play. Almost like that’s why I bought the damn thing.
And yeah, I’ve played around with frame generation a handful of times. It’s a neat gimmick. But ultimately, that’s all it really feels like. It’s something I can flip on to flex about the absolutely ludicrous frame rates the card can get.
But from my experience on the other side of the fence before I got my current pc, I would’ve absolutely loved to trade a little bit of clarity for extra frames. It would’ve pushed a lot of stuff just over the line of being comfortable to play. Or being able to trade off some motion clarity and bump up the graphics a bit while keeping a playable fps.
It is horrific that this human-rights black hole has such an influence on global industries, simply by dictating what its people are allowed to enjoy
Why? You clearly have no issues with any other government denying people their rights and exerting massive influence over media. Just pissy that it isn’t your own?
This. A ton of games have it removed eventually. The main purpose is just to keep the game from getting cracked during the initial release phase where they expect the majority of sales and hype.
The problem, at least to me, is the wildly inconsistent application of the rules. Plenty of streamers have gotten bans for inappropriate content for far, far less than this, and been told to shove it when they tried to appeal. I can guarantee you nobody would be up in arms over this if twitch just treated it as a free for all, and didn’t care if people streamed tits. The problem is that it isn’t, and lots of people get banned, while the big thirst streamers get given a free pass on everything
Also, If this goes through, the “banned games” list is going to need some real pruning.
Exactly. The twitch thot meta is entirely successful because they don’t have to compete with people posting actual porn, and that they aren’t posting on a porn site such that it’s less likely to be restricted, and gets full publicity
It eternally amuses me that it’s on the banned games list. Like yeah, it’s a shit game, but looking at the rest of the list (and games that aren’t banned, for that matter), it’s absurdly mild.
The main reason the ps4 pro came out was the relatively sudden mass adoption of 4k tvs as the new standard. Sony wanted something that could reliably take advantage of it
I mean… OK? There’s nothing wrong with just wanting stuff in a game you’ve played for a while and plan on sticking with. Even as an adult with adult money, I still occasionally buy things like skins in games. Because ultimately I’m not always looking for a new game to play. I like the ones I already play. Nothing wrong with throwing $20 at a game I’ve played for years and would easily play for just as long going forward.
In an MP context, you get into peer pressure if you don’t have a cool skin or whatever
Perhaps it’s just my own experience, but I find next no no pressure whatsoever to buy skins, and never really have. Yeah, there’s the occasional skin with bs particles or a broken animation and they end up being cheat skins basically, but they usually get patched fast these days.
Yeah, I totally get not wanting kids to play online games.
The main reason I wanted to bring these things up is because it seems you have more of a problem with live service games done poorly rather than with the principle of them on their own.
I like it, but damage model vs HP takes some getting used to. You actually have to learn to take hits in nonessential places, instead of just getting praised by mihaiy for flying headlong into a missile
Because I don’t want governments having any pressure regarding what people make. If the EU actually respected games as art, they’d damn well understand how government pressure and money corrupts the final product.
“everything is political” is just retarded cope from people like you who get upset that they can’t use everything as a the basis of their political rants
And I don’t fucking want the American government involved either. Or the Chinese government. I don’t even want industry jannies like the esrb ibvolved.
this sort of thing is not gonna be wildly unusual in a number of countries in Europe in other forms of media. That is, it’d be a little odd if this wasn’t specifically done with video games, by the norms there.
So? It’s still shit when they do it elsewhere too, but this is a thread about video games. “the government already fucks up other industries already” is possibly the absolute worst possible argument for doing something.
Not through steam, but I found a really cool add on type thing for ds4windows that configures the dualsense triggers to work and feel like the dual action gamecube triggers. It’s absolutely amazing when I’m emulating gamecube stuff to actually have the same triggers
