💡 Amazing quick tip for game artists: better and more detailed assets will not lead to an overall pleasing image!
Can someone please tell this to all the "realistic games" creators?
"Realistic" scenes are usually noisy and frustrating to look at — players are no longer able to focus on a certain pattern or detail. And how do they fix it? YELLOW PAINT! 😵

Yes, let's never forget how PlayStation secretly buried their most valuable asset, that without overestimating costs BILLIONS:
— Audio editor
— Video editor
— 3D sculpting
— 2D/3D animation
— No-code programming
All made by the creators of Little Big Planet, Media Molecule. And never properly supported by Sony. The thing that could challenge Roblox and truly make people use PSN accounts on PC. If only!

People on Reddit are searching for help: it seems that their current modeling approach could be optimized — if only someone helped them with an advice! 😅

Microsoft's new Bing Wallpaper app is borderline
malware
Summary: Microsoft has released a new Bing Wallpaper app via Microsoft Store.
It changes your default web browser and your search engine, installs an unauthorized browser extension, and contains code for inspecting your browser cookies and discovering your geographic location.
Be aware that in the reviews section there are virus links 😂
Obviously, don't download THAT
A solid start on Steam for STALKER 2! The game is confirmed as buggy, the Frame Generation feature is broken, but overall people are kinda getting what they expected — an atmospheric adventure in a questionable condition.

Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is a complete mess: the game was launched in an extremely buggy state and has become one of the worst rated projects on Steam (it's the second worst game right now).

Imagine a promotional trailer from NVIDIA and GSC to make you want STALKER 2... It has traversal lag (resources streaming issues):

Same as every Unreal Engine game, you have to fix STALKER 2 yourself with this amazing mod! It clears up antialiasing, fixes stuttering (almost) and improves loading times.
How? A few native engine commands to change settings!

It seems that everyone is generally pleased with Avowed: the game isn't trying to be a huge step forward, but making such a great step back, compared to "modern gaming"!
You can be evil, you can be who you wanna be. The world is big, but not huge and overwhelming, and the whole thing is a bit mediocre by modern standards, but has a very nice flow. It's odd to share a GOOD review by IGN these days! 😁

The most popular character of Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024 is the notorious Error Man (it's a placeholder to prevent the game from crashing when a 3D character fails to load up)
The funniest thing: it stays in the thumbs up pose with an exceptionally dorky face! 😜 Vault boy's dumb cousin...

Epic Allows Internet Archive To Distribute For Free the original ‘Unreal’ & ‘Unreal Tournament’ [Forever]. You probably still gonna need to patch both games to use them now (as mentioned in their descriptions).

Who would've guessed: first reviews starting to roll out and they are negative — everyone is saying that the game is broken and unfinished.
Unlike Starfield, which can't be fixed, STALKER 2 is a great game you'd want to complete when it's done: the premise is simple, the atmosphere is great, and gunplay feels memorable. For now, it just not ready at all.
The performance is horrible even on 4090 with 14900K. The interior lighting is broken, the reflections are inconsistent, and LOD popping is just five meters away from the camera. The are quest bugs, animation bugs, and so are sounds, AI and stealth — they are all broken and it is getting worse with every hour of gameplay.

A cool concept of the mini map, but damn, it ain't MINI! Each time you make a new badass feature, try to ground it a little.

Oh, CNET is bullying Apple for believing their customers are "foolish people faking into their lives". Apple believed in that for decades, it just became oddly noticeable even for the most passionate fans. PlayStation when?
The narrator also mentions Steve Jobs words, that Apple was supposed to be for ones who think different and move humanity forward. It's now for folks, who don't think at all.
