A place I can share my thoughts on old/new games and the odd bit of tech.
Sometimes injected with a healthy dose of sarcasm for those who like things a little less serious.
Like + share my articles if you please. Or don't. I'm not your father. XD

Join me as I await with more than a little excitement for Exodus to get here. Keep up with the news, and take a dive into the amazing lore to whet your appetite.
I don't usually follow things like this, but what I've read and seen so far is my sort of deep sci-fi!
Who's interested in this one?
It's called 83 (set in the cold war in 1983) and is by the people that made the Red Orchestra and Rising Storm mods and games, under the name Blue Dot Games.
I've found these ultra realistic games very hard in the past, but I might give this a go when it comes out.

Whenever there *is* something ULTRA-REALISTIC or immersive / simulation..........
I am in !!

Looks interesting but not sure I'll have a chance to play at that time. I'm not as into shooters or the like as much as I used to be. Getting older and the traveling that we'll be doing will hamper these efforts but love to watch some vids now and again.

I've been following Exodus since the beginning. They call me a 'Founder' because I signed up for the emails immediately.
I have the limited edition book on order so I can read more of the lore, and if I like it I'll look at the material it is all based on.
Coming from some ex developers of the MAss Effect series, I can honestly say I'm very excited for this.

Nice graphics. I love playing Andromeda! It has that sort of feel.

Ouch! S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2 final specs announced. Not only will you need a beefy machine for 2k and 4k, you'll need to free up 160GB on your SSD. All specs say SSD as opposed to HDD, so that could be a requirement rather than a recomendation.
I'll be playing at 2k, so my PC will run it fine, thankfully.
Not long now until the release! I'm not going to have many days off in the next month, so I'll need to squeeze my playing time in when I can.

I'm going to pre-order it on the 18th. I have been waiting for this to release.

Heh, I'd be ok to run it at medium settings anyways. And my SingularityBeast can pull that off no problems still. But dang 160gb storage needed is a tad much lol
Wondering why the target FPS is 60+ only at 4K though... surely it'd be possible to run it at 75fps@1080p

If you didn't play The Thing when it first came out, I can tell you it was much better than I expected it to be. A remaster, while not as good as a full remake, is still a great way to enjoy this golden oldie and get some cool horror vibes based on the movie.

The graphics don't appear all that impressive for a modern remaster, but in a way I do feel trying to modernise too much takes away the character of a game a lot of the time.
I don't know the original, so I can't comment on a comparison, but this feel more fitting for a game remaster over a remake which tends to have a lot more creative freedom, not always a good thing for fans nostalgic for the original.
A video about Ray Tracing said that Witcher 3 getting Ray Tracing much later meant that the original… See More
rasterised graphics fitted better given the resolution of the assets.
A view I have on Ray Tracing and the overall trend towards "realism", is that realism or accuracy doe snot always lend itself to the gaming experience, perhaps in part due to my eyesight, but I find fancy graphics tend to hurt readability, legibility of the game more than improving the experience.
An observation from me, as I said unfamiliar with the original, is that this seems to be in around the right place for that.
