Quoting: pbPurchasing power rate is great, but milti-variable is way higher that both of them, for whatever reason. And it's not only for PLN, same goes for euro and GBP prices. It's almost like one of the "multi variables" was greed. 🤔
It's not really. Don't forget that $ prices don't include VAT. It says $100 is €85 and 100/85 = 1.176, so it accounts for 17.6% VAT, which is lower than most (if not all) of the eurozone.

When I read the news, I checked when I last played this game. It was August 2017, some time after I finished episode 2. I probably forgot how to play this game entirely. 😆

French consumer group UFC-Que Choisir sues Ubisoft over The Crew shutdown

This case specifically is a good test case as nothing in this game should technically be able to run entirely without the servers. Anything multiplayer is entirely optional and therefore having it locked down is clearly just a kill switch.

I ran it for some time a good while back. Too many issues with compositor with only good old "compiz" really doing everything I needed it to do. But that too degraded over time until I just had to leave it. It always felt like they did not just stick to traditional desktop paradigms, but stuck with old tech as well. How is it doing with Wayland?

Quoting: pbThe artwork looks suspiciously sloppy, especially the backgrounds...
From the Kickstarter page "Everything is hand made, with no AI used in any part of the process".
I don't know what is worse, if that turns out to be a lie or the truth. ;p
Having something hand made doesn't automatically make it good of course. But yeah, the scenes look boring and inconsistent.

Serious Sam: Shatterverse announced as a new co-op roguelite FPS

I hope they have a 4 pack with a decent rebate at launch so I don't have to pay full price for the whole family.
As far as I remember Valve blocked the creation of multi-packs a good while ago. Something about have games in inventories leading to trading from regions with low regional pricing.

I'm sure these devs will slap denuvo over it, so I'll just assume it'll be no-go.

Story-driven action RPG The Expanse: Osiris Reborn gets a new trailer and release window

Looking pretty good on casual inspection. Question will always be if the writing can back it up and these days I need to worry about whether I can actually run it in an acceptable manner.

AMD announced the Ryzen 9 9950X3D2 Dual Edition processor

Quoting: GoEsrNvidia didn't start supporting Adaptive Sync until 2019, so it's unlikely but you could try it easily enough by disabling G-Sync (assuming your monitor's OSD gives you the option).
It does not.

Quoting: MayeulC
Quoting: EhvisIt didn't help that my current monitor is g-sync and that switching colours meant I'd have to go Freesync and get a new monitor as well. Just didn't feel like researching that.
What monitor do you have? I do know of any monitor that supports G-Sync but not Freesync (or adaptative sync).

Asus ROG PG348. One with an actual nvidia board. If it supports Freesync/Vesa adaptive sync, it isn't mentioned.
