    From Shurato@21:2/148 to All on Friday, October 06, 2023 18:05:00
    I'm running an 11700K with a 3060ti. I'd like to play something new. My display is 1440p-4k at 60fps, so that's not optimal. I'm thinking of Armored Core 6 Fires of Rubicon, but I'm not sure if I have the reflexes for it,
    given my failings in the beginning of Cyberpunk 2077 playing Corp (I can't
    get past the first gun fight).

    a new Asassin's Creed game just came out i think..

    https://youtu.be/6EGfecviI7k?t=119

    seems to run pretty good on a 3060 @ 1440p.. with some room to spare if it struggles a little @ ultra settings.. (DLSS or bump a couple things to 'high' instead)

    i'm at about 124 hours in Starfield.. bit of a completionist when it comes to Bethesda games (a few years ago i actually printed Oblivion's complete side quest list and was checking them off.. lol) but am finally at the point where i have to do the main quest and finish the game because that's all that's left really ;) either way not a bad investment .. less than 50 cents an hour. my brother actually modded it to make it MORE difficult, so it might not be so bad if you had a hard time with 2077.. has some hefty pc requirements tho.

    have you played dying light (or it's sequel) ? those were both pretty awesome as well.. or their cousin dead island 2 (dead island 1 is probably a bit far back if you want something that feels fairly modern)

    as an aside just posting random stuff:

    DLSS/FSR is pretty sweet for 1440p screens.. i had an RX6600 (non-XT) and it looked pretty good all things considered. certainly better than my 1440p screen trying to run in 1080p mode.. i remember it used to be death to your wallet if you wanted a 1440p screen and also wanted to game.. i'm just hoping they don't keep using it as a way to reign in poorly performing games..

    Have you tried Baldur's Gate 3 already?

    No, it is on my short list though! Thanks for the recommendation.

    Do you like flight simulators? If you haven't tried Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020, I think that would be worth trying. I think it should run fairly well on your setup. I heard they're working on a new version which should be released next year too, so perhaps it could be worth waiting until then to buy it if you decide to.

    To which Darklord replies...

    Me, my son and a couple of his friends are currently in the 3rd act. It's
    been a great game so far...! :)

    Honestly, I haven't tried a flight simulator. I've never been huge into simulators, though, I need a more direct form of reward from a game.

    Ace Combat then. it's both simulator and action strategy game, with a story that includes Japanese interpretation of American vibes...
