>>523926042AMD chads our time has come
>>523926042PC gaming isn't dead. Modern AAA titles are dead. Vintage games and small studio/solo dev games are huge and big studios are falling apart.
>Time to hit up that backlog
>>523926042>hobbyop, you're not thinking correctly.it's just active entertainment instead of passive entertainment.hobbies require you to make something.
>No more gamingHopefully this will force lazy devs to actually drop their titles nowIve been waiting years for newest Lisa the Pointless
>>523926257I made a tower in Minecraft and a full functioning transit system to a system of caves
>>523926185There are some interesting efforts in the indie scene but they're few and far between. I'd single out stuff like Drova, Underrail and Tower of Kalemonvo, but they're mostly very competent, they're not bringing much new to the table. Kenshi is perhaps the best game to come out in the past 10 years in the indie scene, but it's too poorly optimized for my 16gb ram thinkpad, even after modding.Titles like Path of Achra and Peripeteia (very broken) are also interesting to an extent.The real problem is the death of Japanese gaming, which only recycles now.
I don't understand why gaming elicits such anger from people.Sports fans are 100 times worse.
>>523926042This only affects people who always buy the latest high end parts that are completely unnecessary for any game even if you were to play on max settings to play the latest AAA goyslop.
>>523926042Basher RC cars. Gaming isnt dead its just being held hostage by left wing jewish demons
>>523926042Been looking through the folders of old games I've kept, copying them to every new PC. Cracked out DosBox and got a lot of them running. Also have lots of fun reinstalling the arcade and pinball emulators and trying out some of the thousands of roms I downloaded over the years. Even emulating the older machines I used to have like Amiga and C64 and playing all those old games is a blast. Back when graphics was secondary to compelling gameplay.
>Endless AAAAAA+ bloat and hardware inflation is dead.>Endless pursuit of monetization in games is dead.>I don't have to spend $1000 every three years to run a game that looks worse than the last benchmark game.The indie golden age, soon.
>>523926042There isn't really much need for any more power to make decent games the main factor holding back PC gaming is shitty bloated os code written by poopjeets and terrible game engine optimisation by developers probably at the behest of Nvidia so they can sell more cards where the tech isn't efficient or mature enough for market.
>>523926042bro, I can literally run 90% of my library on integrated graphics. Stop being a paypig for triple A studio slop you ignorant chud.
>>523926185Pretty much this. No sane person is paying 80+ bucks for poorly optimized, buggy, jeet-coded soulless AAA shovelslop.Because that's what AAA gaming has become. Look at us, we're the shovelware now. Whereas platforms like steam, and itch.io etc have gotten way better at curating the serious projects and sinking the shovelware. There's an endless choice of small studio/indie games that you can feel are a proper passion project by the devs, they look, sound and play great and you can run them on a fucking potato because the devs actually bother to optimize shit.
I've already mostly stopped. Though I watch anime and read manga instead which I imagine isn't looked at any better. I recently bought a new laptop that can play any games I'd want to well too.

faggots implying on this thread that is only one company are just normies, all major tech companies from burger silicone tits valley are in on the AI death spiral of investments, that's how they 'grew' in recent years, not because they are badass, because they enter the cycle of scam where money makes money, same cycle cause the great depression for those that never read or seeing a extensive explanation of the process that started on the start of 1920's.And they make seem organic, but is all artificially made, I mean, 100 years after the last one the values are aligning for decades on a even bigger one.Is not even something new, anons preping here that brought the whole culture of moving to the rural area, since nobody want to starve to death.
>>523926042It's not dead. It's full of entitled whiners and mutants that are looking for a support network for their degeneracy. You can tilt them and fuck with them relentlessly as long as you are creative enough to bypass whatever TOS you're dealing with. It's 99% slop but there's enough being made that some slip through the cracks. You do not and have never needed top end hardware or current thing. If you aren't having fun then just quit or go back to your sportsball cuckold parties.

>>523927116One of the things I've been hoping for is that elevated prices create an opportunity for a 2nd hand hardware modding, refit, and repair market here in the US. So much hardware just gets dumpstered here when it starts running into issues or slowing down. If the conditions last long enough there might still be a foothold in place for that market after prices (hopefully) return to something affordable.>>523927361And how do you expect to acquire these tools? Nvidia realized that it made a mistake with offering so much VRAM to their consumers and walked it back. AMD is following Nvidia's footsteps. Intel has an actual shot at getting these tools into the hands of consumers with the Battlematrix project but their GPU division could be executed at any moment given the state of their business and surrounding politics. All-in-one AI tools that allow for the simple translation of an idea to a project with a few months work will only be available through subscriptions. Subscriptions that will be far out of reach for an individual without an established studio behind him.
>>523926826No dude, no goalposts were shifted, you didn't make anything.If sitting on your ass doing fuck all is your thing that's fine, but own up to it.You are just a consoooomer, nothing else.

>>523926042I retired a decade ago from competitive gaming. I don't even casually game anymore. I'll watch the ASL (Afreeca/SOOP StarLeague for Brood War), the NFL (Green Bay Packers), Wheel of Fortune, and do a Sudoku or two in my book on occassion and that's it for the games. Nowadays, I spend my free time mostly, reading, writing, gardening and hunting (or prepping for hunt). Reality is greater than video games, and cheaters are caught from pro to noob and everything in between, so it really defeats the purpose of competition.
Games worth playing don't require a high end gaming pc any longer
>>523926042>new hobbybut all my favourites run on mid tier 2016 hardware

>>523926185This. You can buy a ching chong emulation handheld for a few dollars and have better fun than with 99% of AAAs released in the last decade. Meanwhile, a pixelated furry tranny indie game gets a pre- release trailer on Nintendo Switch, while another one, a 2D platformer, gets GOTY.In 2014 PC Gaymer already criticized AAA production model as "unsustainable".At this point I wonder if the suits even understand what's going on with the market.
The most recent vidya title I play was released in 2017 (RS2 Vietnam). The oldest title is from 1999 (Commandos), and most of my games are from the 2000s.There is no need to consoom new bing bing wahoo with the plethora of excellent vidya made during the golden age of PC gaming. Retvrn to tradition, White man.

>>523926042Gaming does not stop even if fucking NVIDIA would go bankrupt.
Gaming isn't dead by any means, though I've never understood why anyone would pay thousands for a PC when you can get a console for a lot cheaper. Better graphics I guess but I need a better reason than that to spend that kind of money for a video game.
>>523929477>Gaming isn't dead by any means, though I've never understood why anyone would pay thousands for a PC when you can get a console for a lot cheaperIts necessary for streamers and other creators.

>>523929746Based
>>523926042No all your shit games that you played for the last ten years or so because you’re a shitty gamer are dead. You disgusting fucks existed in a parallel dimension to me where you swallows up the most disgusting slop I’ve ever witnessed in reality and yet you tried to pretend to me that you were the real gamers. You fucking noobs. Great to see your slop finally overwhelm and destroy you
>>523929920what does that have to do with CPU rendering? I guarantee they’re using GPU acceleration for the physics solver
>>523930174Maybe you do. I can play pretty much any game I want on this laptop and the idea of upgrading it so I can play some faggy shit like GTA 6 makes me laugh. But 99% of you would think that way.
>>523930174>why do we even build computers for gay ming..The future is you putting your phone in a dock that'll upscale games and provide I/O ports for shit like monitors and controllers.

If PCs cost $25.000,00 that would be a GOOD thing for gaming. Modern AAA titles are garbage. There's a thousand good indie titles and old AAA titles that aren't garbage. The cost? Nothing, your current system can run indie and old AAA forever, the games are $2,99 steam sales.Why the fuck would you spend $80 on GARBAGE games and thousands upgrading your system to play GARBAGE.
>>523931826>use brown coders to make windows use 8gb in stock.W11 uses 12gb of RAM just to idle now. Probably gonna get worse with the AI push.

>>523932113perhaps i am an autistic german driving trucks for a living & playing truck simulators when i get home?
>>523933116The GPU is only half of the equation for PC users. You need good stable drivers that work with Windows and Linux, or at least Windows.Unless China can make good drivers, they'll never be applicable to consumer computing.
>>523930654>GBC emulator to play Pokemon Yellow againGet an 8bitdo micro controller and you're set. It's pretty sweet. I thought about using another handheld but I like have one device/phone
>>523932714>Vidya>1. Something for children. Not adults.
>>523933584Retarded boomer take
>>523930654>a GBC emulatorif only they could get link cable emulation to work so i could battle/trade
>>523926185This basically. I play Rome: Total War since 2005 and still enjoy it like 20 years ago. Fuck new corporate vidyaslop.
>>523933751sameboy emulator iirc worked for me
>>523926042except it isn't. ill get ai to simulate the games for me, and instead of running on my pc, my simulated games will run off your datacenters processing capabilities. It's computer regression essentially. Before personal pc's everything was dumb terminals connected to a mainframe. It seems we're headed backwards in that direction because gubbermint has willed it & Nvidia has complied.
>>523933771You need to get ready for next year's releases.
>>523926042>dick don't work?
>>523933751BGB does it.mGBA does it for GBA as well and melonDS even has full wifi
>>523930654Gaming has already hit a wall with innovation in mechanics and graphics. AAA as a whole could crash and burn tomorrow and gaming would only improve.>all games ever made by big studios are abandonware and are archived online for free>popular multiplayer games are upkept by unoffical servers>indie devs can't get away with being lazy early access fags anymore
Videogames are responsible cause for *all* the post-2000 global cultural degeneracy that /pol/ chimps constantly about
>>523934247Is this a good time for a Bluechew ad?
>>523926042if gaming is dead why do i do it 18 hours a day
>games now 90% "woke" slop>the days of games developing problem-solving and motor skills, long gone>most games are either thinly veiled gambling, coomerware, or remedial tools for retards and geriatrics>yet, despite this steep degeneration of the pastime, its associated costs have increased logarithmicallyThis is the "crash" autists have been predicting... I hope you kept your Lego.
>>523926347anon is basically all indie; the name should be abandoned.>>523926504agree. AMD Radeon RX 6600 gets 60 fps in Cyberpunk 2077 1920x1080, and that was 200 dollaridoos is maybe 380 now.>I need the 4.000 dollaridoos videocards to enjoy videia>I need the 2.900 dollaridoos Harrods Creuset to cook my soup for my cook hobby>I need the 6.000 dollaridoos Fujifilm GFX 100S for my photo hobby>I need the 10.000 dollaridoos Neumann KU 100 microphones for my fucking ASMR hobbyno unless you are rich or autistic, you can manage it cheaper.
>tfw "cloud gaming" on 800 ping turbo latency satellite internet so silicon valley(Austin, TX) gays can justify importing 75IQ jeets
>>523928446Get a load of this simp
>>523934941Indeed. We'd all be playing on the cloud if the globe had japan or south Korea tier infrastructure.
>>523928446Anyone who's had sex and pnc knows how boring it is compared to video games.
>>523934731>I need 50,000 doll hairs SSL console for my music hobbyHonestly too true Fuck these lame niggers with zero eye for aesthetics who pump their "battlestation" full of eyesore LEDs. I'll never understand this faggotry. No wonder these new fags are so anxious all the time when they live in a parent-funded red alert submarine. 85% of my 550 game library can be run on any "entry-level" machine.
>>523926042Oh no, how will I keep my cost-effective entertainment now!?!>two decades of GPUs i kept sitting in the cornerWe'll be fine, just refuse to buy anything made with UE5.
i just dropped $10k to build my dream custom pcmust be hard being poor
>>523926042I have a $2k gaming laptop I bought a year ago and only play games from the 90s and 2000s. Checkmate, faggot
>>523928446had sex, wasn't impressedyou must be pretty stupid to be entertained by wet hole and nagging cunt
>>523926324You are a German, your arbeit is your leisure and your leisure is preferably some form of arbeit.
>>523935064>can download.>but can't save it.many are the velocities out there.
>>523935520Memory is getting progressively expensive.
>>523935381You could do the same with 1.5k about 3 months ago.
>>523928456>play humans or zerg>get repetitive strain disorderProtoss Chads. I admire your wisdom.
>>523929119>>523930648Also an obvious industry plant.
>>523926121I've bought AMD CPUs since forever Intel have been shit except for Xeon for ages. GPUs I get NVidia but I have to do AI slop for work.
>>523930894Nigger, I'm an engineer now because of computers as a hobby in the 90's.You're seasonal roofer with console. eat a dick.
>>523929323Gaymers are the dumbest cattle there is. It's the most retarded, infantile, consumerist slop available. And it's also incredibly mainstream. The fact that you're still trying to push it as something eletist just shows that you are a distinctional loser that has nothing going on in his life aside of this manchild slop.Memeflaga everyone.
>>523936532Gaymers are blowing up your front lines with drones flown by gaming controllers. I imagine you're forced to do manual labor to stay warm. Russian flag posts are just brittany e-girl soup retards
>>523926042ooh wau, now I'm going to have to approach women in public and buy them drinks at the bar
I voted for this
>>5239368848$ a drink is too expensive
>>523926121this! I actually want to invest in AMD since NVIDIA jews are obviously trying to shake off poorfags so they can buy their shares back. it's like dumb AI faggots in USA wrote all these letters to each other to pause AI development so China could catch up and overtake
>>523936810>manual laborNOOOOO NOT LE HECKIN MANUAL LABORINOOO!!!
>>523936810LMAO GOYCATTLE GOT TRIGGEREDNigga, your lardass won't be fit to serve even as drone operator.>brittany e-girl soupYou are also savvy in some gibberish pop culture trends. Case in point – gaymers are normgroids.
>>523936145I too could create a critically acclaimed vidya if I was a multimillionaire nepobaby like the head guy is. My wife wants to make a game. I'll help out if she can provide a cogent design document.
>>523926042Time to go outside nerds and do something that isnt fake digital nonsense.
>>523933771I recommend Medieval 2, all the LOTR mods are GOAT. Europa Barbarorum is great too
>>523937157No you wouldn't. As always, losers try to justify their own ineptness by some shadowy cheming.
>>523937166Tetris and pacman are recreations of real life.
>>523926257I agree. Gaming/movies/vidya is completely passive entertainment. It's basically vicarious in most cases too... which is even worse. You literally sit on your rear and just consume. Nothing is made. Nothing is developed. It's really a sad and unproductive waste of time. Hell most reading is also passive entertainment. I used to game when I was younger but as I became a man I got to feeling like vidya was just pointless. I mean I could do one of 12 other things in my free time that are actually rewarding or real.
>>523937275>No you wouldn't.It aint like I'm working a 9-5 anymore.
>>523937166its not nonsenseyou just lack the skills
>>523937337They are little blips on a screen no different than twiddling your thumbs honestly.
>>523937343The only thing that matters is how much dopamine/seratonin the activity produces and what potential it has to produce that in the future.I've enjoyed my life far more staring at maps in grand strategies than I ever did working my six figure job, or doing some 'manly' activity like hunting/fishing.
>>523937382Let me speak in your terms- I have placed my "skill points" in actual skills... Not glorified children's boardgames.
9800x3dRTX 508064 GB DDR5 6000 30cl RAMI began building my new PC when Trump was elected. His campaign was extremely vocal that he would levy tariffs creating higher prices for PC parts which are all manufactured overseas, and his campaign was literally funded by one of the generative AI frontrunners. You absolutely have only yourself to blame if you waited this long to assemble a tower. What did you think you were waiting for?
>>523935462100% this. taking shit is pleasurable but you don't see me devoting entire day to doing it. same with sex; it's fun for a quickie once a day or so but if it takes more than 10 min or she wants to do whole romantic staying in bed for hours shit then I rather play vidya
>>523933584Oh ho you are s e e t h i n g
>>5239260424chan never used to be like this we had a containment board called r9k and fit.Why now? Even the lit board is intolerable these days.
>>523926121Enjoy paying 2500 dollars to play the two movie games that release a year that look like Vaseline acid trips from all the downscaling and blur and post processing
>>523937458In my freetime I generally spend most of my time improving my property. So it's sort of like people building stuff in games except it is REAL. Also I like to work on classic vehicles. Or just spend time in the woods in general. I mean no little map made by some nerd in a cubicle is ever going to compete with the incomprehensible beauty and complexity of the natural creation or woodlands. Anyways, if I repair fences, or clear brush, or repair barns, I actively improve my property FOR REAL. Like it is mine. It is physical extant. When I go outside I see the improvement. I'm literally living in it. Or when I work on a car like I actually get to drive it. It is an actual extant motor vehicle. The reward is so real and palpable. Like it started off as a rust bucket and now it's like a nice vehicle in real life. What could a video game possibly provide that is more rewarding than that to a sane mind??I think the inability to differentiate real and virtual is a fairly alarming (almost clinical delusion) of many gamers.
don't worry goyim rabi newelstein has you covered. now that no one is going to buy a pc for at least 2-3 years the steam machine suddenly seems attractive
>>523936810hohol kikes can't help themselves. I know one hohol faggot on instagram from childhood that constantly shills hohol propaganda on his stories yet too much of a pussy to go fight in hoholia even though he claims to be hohol from kief
>>523938074must be coincidence
>>523926042i still play 15 year old pc games and my GameCube and DS. nothing good has come out in years, why the fuck would this suddenly kill "gaming", its just going to kill the unoptimized ai powered jeet coded AAA shovelware.
>>523938074Anyone who can cater to the consumer market during this nonsense will instantaneously harbor good will.
>>523926121Me also, the intel/nvidia build is for cucks.
>>523926042fuck you. pay debnts NOW
>>523926883>satanic boomer pig with one foot in the grave who did nothing but destroy civilizationYeah I'll get right on that "growing up" part, you fucking wormy little maggot. Fucking worthless goy cattle motherfucker.
>>523938347it was always fake benchmarks and horseshit from nvidiaati/amd was always the better choicenvidia has to patch and hack drivers for new games as they come out, to fudge benchmark scoresconsumer retards fell for "game ready drivers" shitinstead of just having a video card with drivers that just work>nvidia is better they update their drivers every 3 dayspeople fell for that shit.. like releasing driver every 3 days isn't a sign its always been a buggy pile of shit
>>523938555No one is destroying civilization
>>523926042Buy Intel or AMD, whatever is cheapest or mid-range; don't buy crazy stuff. I bought the 4080 Super; it's dogshit. I had blue screens for 4-6 months because gooks pushed an update that destroyed driver stability.
>>523926042>>523926042Jews will buy up all the graphics cards and destroy them to increase the prices of them. Stock up on them now.
>>523926121I will never buy amd. they always add more cripple cores.increase the clock speed. this increases the temperature. which in return lowers the performance.their software sucks. never had a problem with the intel nvidia combo. I just don't trust amd.
>>523926042Games are so fucking gay these days anyways. I built a top tier amd pc but there are zero good games. Arc raiders is almost fun but its got some matchmaking that puts all the single moms together and keeps them safe from chuds and if you’re a chud you get sorted into lobbies filled with fortnite kids that have been on adderall since 6 and dodge roll all over the place and cheaters. Women ruined video games and men can’t have anything fun.
>>523938555shut the fuck up goy
>>523938555Listen I'm nta, but I agree with the anon. And I probably hate boomers more than anyone in a 500 mile radius. Anyways just because boomers are sorry deluded chiselers doesn't mean gaymers and weebs etc. aren't no-count useless fools. Gaymers and boomers actually have a ton in common. Boomers sit on their rear consuming creature comforts watching TV screens and sports ball. And Gaymers sit on their rear consuming creature comforts and watching little digital nonsense in a screen. Same difference.
>>523926042>>523926042>>523926042Jews will buy up all the graphics cards and destroy them to increase the prices of them. Stock up on them now.
>>523938074If they really are at a resonable price point in a period where consumer hardware prices are skyrocketing imagine if these things actually ended up fucking microshart and apple in the ass by generating a significant consumer level linux ecosystem.
I just paid £242.50 for 32GB of Crucial DDR5 ram, but only because it keeps getting more and more fucking expensive.
>>523938647>>523938797>>523938824The only thing that's ever going to happen, is each and every single one of you mammonite cattle trash will burn. You serve hell, and you will fucking burn in hell.Every single man that has attempted to subvert the natural law to sacrifice God's sons for service to jews and their warpig machine is going to die. NO ONE is working for or building anything divine for your fucking insane hell. You're dead and you don't even know it yet.
>>523926042Good thing I have the same PC since 2001
>>523938824kys kike
>>523926042My 3060ti and Switch 2 will serve me for years to come.
>>523927361Wrong retardAI can't code and solve technical problemI use it and it's a mild assist for real problemsAI is destroying creative works however
>>523926943everyone's on their discord safe spaceany AAA title is mass censoring. Elder Scrolls Online for example uses AI to ban anyone that uses naughty words even in whispers.developers/publishers afraid to make a social game. seriously, when was the last truly social game? Gary's Mod?
>>523938776>Games are so fucking gay these days anyways100% this. only game I like to play is to see how quickly I can get my pipi to ejaculate and how quickly I can get back to playin with my pipi again. everything else is a waste of time
>>523939033Don't sperg because I am trying to convince you to fix your mind and go enjoy the outdoors kek. I mean right now your mind is all messed up staring at video games all day and I'm trying to just show you some firm mercy and advising you to go outside and do something productive with yourself and you start thrashing about with all these schizo things about war and stuff. Literally clinical levels. Look whatever garbage you play on little screens made by nerds is never going to compete with God's natural creation right outside your door. It's literally right there for you to enjoy. It's just waiting on you 24/7. The fact that you'd ignore the creator's wonders in exchange for little man-made trinkets shows you have a sick afflicted mind.
>>523937993>improving my property.>Also I like to work on classic vehicles>I repair fences, or clear brush, or repair barns, Ikill yourself you senile old rich boomer

>>523926121ray tracing has always been a meme and that was the only reason to go nvidia.
>>523937993I am also a property Chad and the reality is most gamers are renters at best or in their room at their parent's home...if they had property and kids they'd game less.
>>523939602I don't have a trustfund kek. Anyone with a fairly normal job can work on cars or go outside
>>523926042Consoles win by being the de facto only gaming hardware you can buy.
>>523932038This. anyone who isn't sunk cost gaming in 2025 is a fucking normgroidI laugh at the demise of faggots who think models need to have more than 700 polygons. get priced out retards
Ram is 1,000$ how the fuck are you guys gaming?
>>523938776MILF pussy is good pussy dummy.
>>523928574Everyone on pol is 8 figure rich, 12 inch dick, and 11/10 virgin snow white wife. Give me a break. Post proof or fuck off troll.
>>523939796Yeah but even if I didn't have property I'd still do something productive with myself or go outside. Anyone can find woods etc to spend time in. I have friends with small property or no property and they still have plenty of cool hobbies and things.
>>523939802>having a job
>>523939771Ray or path tracing as an idea was always interesting to me, but the way its implemented currently seems to be approximations or gimped versions. I even recall one of the more recent Unreal engines having a shader for faking it. Once it becomes easier to do well and more widespread I feel like it can actually start developing. Right now I think it's like having physics in a game from 1997, maybe even worse than that.
>>523939960>forced to work for moneyA job is just cash flow. Cash flow is just the ability to do things.
>>523939368Indeed. My Switch 2 has been getting a lot of use.
>>523939802I was about to akshually you for working on cars but I see above you stated classic car. Same. I'll give up my mazda nb when the last metal factory on earth goes quiet.
>>523926121been AMD since R9 290, no regrets
Pic/rel game is doing pretty well.a few other big AAA titles launched recently and they're just turning out the same reheated gameplay.. its not selling this time around.
>>523926257>hobbies require you to make something.Nigger are you retarded?
>>523940217You know honestly I'm not even sure if it's functionally possible to "work on" a modern vehicle at this point.
>>523940405I dont need anymore gamer rage. I stopped playing LoL for that reason.
>>523926042Brother I'm running out of hobbies that the government hasn't raped
>>523939884I'm on a 7 year old Thinkpad P52. Can still play 95% of games except S&Box (not even optimized) and Arma Reforged.Don't play triple gAAAymes.
We could stsrt a non profit to manufacture electronics for non corporations and keep the internet alive, with how much hate Micron and Nvidia are getting, it's probably going to have happen or the internet will die for consumers. Most services in the future will be open source or non profit since corporations would legally be obligated to sell everything to tech bros once listed for share holders.
>>523926121amd gpus suck because of their drivers, hardware is okay, but it's all for naught when the software side can't keep upamd has always been like this, and if they could get one fucking decent coder in their house, they would be on top
>>523939124same
>>523934592Videogames are responsible cause for *all* the post-2000 global cultural degeneracy that /pol/ chimps constantly about
>>523938774this anon also knows, if amd can figure out how to code for their own damned hardware and stop being ricer shitters chasing benchmark figures i will happily build all amd
>>523940699Its better if you have frienda to play it with. Ivw been ratted so many times. Sometimes things work out ok in solo though. Just today I was rez'd by a friendly stranger after getting knocked by a wasp. I wouldn't take very high value gear in solo or with randos though. Thats just dumb.

>>523941684My concern is that the game is a fad and it will become dull.. its really well done. I don't think will wear out. Dayz is a really shitty game but a great idea. Ark raiders took the great idea of dayz and made it into a game that isnt shitty like dayz is.
>>523930467Eagle Dynamics
