New game from original creators of The Elder Scrolls has almost been backed on Kickstarter.
  • There are potential pitfalls with procedural generation, and Starfield definitely did it poorly, but as a fan of TES since Daggerfall I'm happy to get behind this. I'm sure it's possible to make proc-gen work well and I'm hopeful they'll manage it. Only time will tell I guess.

  • New game from original creators of The Elder Scrolls has almost been backed on Kickstarter.
  • I can't say it's something I noticed, but I'm sure there will be options to adjust that. It also seems like the kind of game that will attract modders, just like all TES games.

  • New game from original creators of The Elder Scrolls has almost been backed on Kickstarter.

    This new project from some of the folks who worked on the first 3 Elder Scrolls games looks great. It looks certain to be backed as well as it's already at 99% on Kickstarter with a couple more weeks to go.

    Xbox Cloud Gaming Beta - Why is my latest save never synced?
  • Streaming on either Xbox Cloud Gaming (beta) or GeForce Now.

  • Xbox Cloud Gaming Beta - Why is my latest save never synced?
  • I mean that my latest save from my Xbox is never available via the cloud on other services.

  • Xbox Cloud Gaming Beta - Why is my latest save never synced?

    Is there a place on the Xbox or elsewhere where I can see the sync status of my saves, or better yet, is there a option for me to choose to sync certain saves?

    I ask as my latest save game is never synced when I come to use Xbox Cloud Gaming, making it utterly fuckin' useless. I even tried leaving my Xbox on for 20 minutes after saving, in the hope that if left doing nothing it would sync my saves, but nope. If I only wanted to play random old saves it would be fine, but that's hardly the point of this service I imagine.

    Is this service still in beta because is doesn't work well?

    For reference my Xbox and the device I'm attempting to stream on are both connected to via Wi-Fi to my 515Mb down 75Mb up broadband connection.

    Moving away from Surfshark
  • I too stream IPTV, which is what the VPNs primary use is. I'm glad Mullvad has worked well for, it's the one in thinking of sticking with. Fortunately, I'm able to try it for a month for the same price I'd normally pay, unlike their competitors. The only thing that's holding Mullvad back are their comparatively poor apps.

  • Moving away from Surfshark

    My Surfshark sub is almost up and I'm looking for my best option.

    I'm so glad this little community has popped up, as looking for reviews on Reddit and elsewhere online is next to impossible, since every review is simply an ad in disguise.

    I need a VPN primarily for streaming, so need it to be fast, and obviously security and privacy are key concerns too.

    I've narrowed down my choices to Mullvad, Proton or sticking with Surfshark. Surfshark has been ok, but I assumed there must be better out there.

    What are everyone's thoughts on the best performing service at the moment?

    Thanks.

    Does anyone know why a website may not work in LibreWolf?
  • It does. I found a workaround. but it required changing settings. Librewolf is a little too secure for some websites to work correctly it seems.

  • GFN Thursday - 8/24/23
  • No Starfield for launch though.

  • Does anyone know why a website may not work in LibreWolf?

    I'm testing LibreWolf with a view to moving to it from Chrome, but I've noticed some websites don't work, for example: https://apps.sentinel-hub.com/eo-browser/

    Does anyone know why this may be?

    Thanks.

    Has anyone used the Palit Jetstream RTX 4080?
  • Thanks for the feedback. My thinking was if by going with Palit or Zotac I can get stretch my budget to include a 4080 (if going AM5) or 4090 if going (Z790 or B660 + 13600K) etc, then it would be worth it, providing these basic cards would prove reliable. I just don't know their reputation as I'm unfamiliar with the brands, since this will be my first gaming PC.

  • Has anyone used the Palit Jetstream RTX 4080?

    I see the Palit Jetstream RTX 4080 is the cheapest 4080, and I'm wondering if anyone has experience of it? Have they cut corners to make it this cheap, and is it still a solid card? Thanks.

    Recently completed my build with a 7900xtx
  • Which CPU did you go for?

  • GFN Thursday - 13/07/23
  • Technically I have a gaming laptop with an RTX 2070, and I don't think the GPU will be up to the task. Though I could be pleasantly surprised, especially with PureDark's promise to have a DLSS mod running before the full launch.

  • GFN Thursday - 13/07/23
  • Isn't Xcloud limited to 720p? My plan is to replace my gaming PC and use Sunshine and Moonlight to stream from the PC. I've been testing streaming from my current setup over the last couple of days and it's working very well.

  • Heads up, Lemmings! The Elder Scrolls Online free to keep if you claim it between July 20 - 27
  • That's strange, it's not showing as an upcoming free game in the UK. Disappointing 😞

  • (July) What are you listening to now?
  • AWOL On The Appalachian Trail by David Miller, narrated by Christopher Lane.

  • Lemmy apps don't appear to work well with Lemmy.world

    When I started using Lemmy I joined Lemmy.world and downloaded several Lemmy apps, to find one I liked. After a short while, the apps seemingly became incompatible with Lemmy.world and refuse to display the communities I'd joined, or show any content on the main page of the app if I selected Subscribed rather than Local or All. I also couldn't see posts I knew to be there in some communities. Due to these issues I tried Lemmy.ml and fortunately it doesn't suffer from these problems when using the apps. What's going on? Is Lemmy.world broken?

    Sorry if this is a stupid question.

  • GFN Thursday - 13/07/23
  • Another week passes without word on more Xbox Studio's games, which is disappointing. There's little chance I'll be playing Starfield on GFN it seems. I may have to replace my rig instead, though I suppose either way Nvidia will get my money, sadly.
