I built my first high-end gaming PC during the pandemic. First game I played was HL2
Me replaying Bejeweled 3 in 2026 :)
New PC? What kind of person can afford one of those? Elon Musk?
A Steam Deck is made for you with such behavior.
It guves me the occasion to play all the titles I ignored over the years.
Still I need something powerful to play sim racing titles as it’s the only category where I can’t just play old games.
This month I built a Ryzen 9 9950X3D, 32gb DDR5, XFX 9070 FX PC and the first new thing I got into was Mina the Hollower, a graphical throwback to the 8-bit era.
I’m playing slay the spire 2 and even my Ryzen 9 3900 is woefully overpowered for it.
Good, says I. The whole point of what I built is to own all of the compute I need to ride out an AI bubble, a protracted chip shortage, and a broad retreat of self-owned hardware. I plan to nurse this rig along until the world has changed twice over, and if good games stay easy to run that won’t hurt my feelings none.
StS2 is great, but it seems like there’s no true ending yet? Is that because it’s still in early access?
I can wait for new games to go on sale, there’s so plenty of great older games and a consistent flow of good indie games to play. AAA titles can wait till they are cheap enough to be worth the cost. Especially now with AAA being the cost of 4-5 Silksongs but not being 4-5 Silksongs of value.
This is de wey
Last two times I upgraded GPU; booted up FTL.
I think it’s because by the time it’s installed, clean while I’m there, get it all back together, do all the software side of things… I’m not in a Cyberpunk kind of mood.
You know, maybe it is time to reinstall Dungeon Hack
