My dog is finally stinky free. My house, on the other hand, still has a mild smell even after cleaning, deodorizing and opening the windows.
Note to self: ALWAYS check the yard before letting the dog outside in the morning.
Speaking of battery life, I found out yesterday that my Pixel 6a phone may have a defective battery. It's been working just fine, but Google is sending out a mandatory system update tomorrow. If mine has a defective battery, my phone's battery life will be signifcantly reduced until I can get the battery replaced for free.
I may ditch the phone and go back to Motorola; I never had any issues with their phones.
You had to dodge whales in the ocean. Could have been epic.
When the last whale crashed down it impacted the ocean surface, sending out huge waves with physics.
Felt like Wave Race.
I feel like we need a new wave race based on MKW ocean bits.
I just learned my new battery has trickle charging.I googled it but I'm still confused. Why would you trickle charge headphones and smartwatch s as the manual says?
New Wave Race game for Switch 2? Yes please!
Lots of people leave their electronics on a charger overnight. Most lithium batteries fully charge in a couple hours; leaving it on the charger for longer will reduce the battery life. Trickle charging allows you to keep it on a charger all night without it fully charging until morning.
YES!
Eh. It wouldn't be the same anyway. Have you played WaveRace recently? I played some WR: Blue Storm a few months back and while still great, it's brutal. If they'd make a new one, the challenge would be severely dumbed down.
Still, I absolutley loved the GameCube version. It's a very unique experience.
I was driving next to rampaging Bison in MKW and I could feel the patter of their feet.
And just now I was next to a generator in Cyberpunk and it felt like you were resting your hands on it as it rumbled and chugged along.
And in battery news the new powerbanks I got have failed as I feared to charge switch 2 while playing it.
So only the 5000 mah one works as intended. Crazy that big brands like Anker and Ravpower won't work.
I've been looking at the box of the one that works and it's fast charging and has a PD 20W type C output.
I think this is the difference.
It might be the actual cables so I'll test those. The powerbanks still charge when switch 2 is in sleep or powered off.
Yes, I really love HD rumble.
Thanks I may use it for that.For someone who about this time last year would not touch "rougue-likes" or "rougue-lights" with a ten foot pole I've been playing Slay the Spire, Rogue Legacy, Monster Train and Vampire Survivors.
Will Phil Fogg ever play a full length game again?
What do you think of the Yoshida story? Sad state of affaris for the helth of gaming I think. Or maybe we'll just play games like I have been this week. To invoke the Dead Kennedy's, "The AAA took my gaming away".
Still playing so much Death Stranding 2, addicting, weird, fun, it's Kojima at his most Kojima at times. I'm frustrated in how safe this sequel feels and how difficulty wise it's a step back. Streamlining mechanics and making them easier to enjoy is a positive but when you take the core element that defines the games gameplay which is traverse a harsh world and find a way to deliver packages in good condition, when that harsh world becomes a lot less harsh in the name of being more accessible it hurts the experience. At least for me.
There maybe a ton of people that say DS2 is a lot less frustrating! I can mindlessly deliver packages in peace! That's not fun for me, the challenge is the fun part, that's point of the game, if not it might as well be truck simulator. Anyway the game is still fantastic it's just a lot more forgiving.
^ sounds like my qualms with the recent Monster Hunter games.
Sounds like you need Snowrunner in your life.Found this interesting. There were questions over whether raytracing was even possible on SW2 even though DF tested it using Control and yeah it worked.
Sounds like UE5 I'd going to improve support for hardware RT over the lighter software based lighting.
Sounds like SW2 won't be able to do RT lighting but reflections and shadows should work fine.
The reflections in Cyberpunk are stunning and there are so many reflective surfaces. If they're cube mapped I don't care, still looks beautiful.
Finally making it run like it should have on release day? Better late than never, I suppose. Once this comes out, I'll continue my playthrough. I was enjoying it but the difficulty and performance issues really hurt it.
That reminds me. I need to get back to Mudrunner. I was enjoying it but I get sidetracked easily.
