Quoting: Whitewolfe80

Quoting: 14$500 for the least expensive one. No thanks.

Believe me when I say that I spend 80% or more of my gaming time on PC. Still, I can't convince myself that a $500 video card is worth it when you can buy an entire console gaming system for $300. Come on.

You are not wrong, but a console has many many drawbacks but that has always been the downside of pc gaming yes it offers a far superior gaming experience than a console however upgrading a pc is expensive if you intend to keep it bleeding edge however a console is a one and done expense. But given a 750 ti @ 1080p either out performs or performs the same as a base xbox 1 and ps4 given most console games the equivlent pc setting is either med/high but in some more demanding games when its upscaled from 900p like last of us remastered its more like 1600x900 high.

Right. It comes down to value to the buyer. I am not arguing that one should play console instead of PC. But, for some, it's more economical. And, when consoles just release, they can be better performance for your money. Now that the current gen systems have been out for a few years, yes, PC components are good for your money in comparison.

I might have to get one of these trains games. I have 0. The graphics in this one are purdy.

The trailer gave me laughter and smiles, but also a little concern for substance. The magic fighting mechanic looks hilariously fun. Perhaps, they need a new game director to create a second game using the action mechanics established here. This game kind of looks like a tech demo asking for funds for a real game.

I might get it once it works on Linux. It might be fun to play for a while. And, maybe, their next game will be richer.

Hmm, games like this... makes me want to set up a PC to the TV so I can sit in a recliner or couch.

Quoting: burningserenity

Quoting: 14I've messed up my display settings multiple times on my laptop that has both an IGP and discrete Nvidia graphics. Thank goodness I had other computers to search the internet for help! I'm afraid to try it again because of those experiences.

I've been there! Distro hopped all over the place trying to make it work consistently. Nvidia-xrun works okay if you don't mind using fluxbox or something basic to run a single game. This guide worked the best for me. Somehow I messed it up several times before getting it to work, but lately I made it work on both Manjaro and Kali Linux.

Thanks. Maybe I'll get the guts to try again someday. It would be nice for the few games I play on my laptop to run smoother.

Yup, I have to get this. Reminds me of Final Fantasy Tactics: The War of the Lions, which I played on PS Vita.
I'm also a sucker for Fire Emblem games, which are the same genre but a different flavor.
