I personally am glad WAN: Global Offensive is over. I doubt you'll be completely perfect, but I'm glad you've decided to stop being actively offensive. /s
@@alexwoodhead6471it was one of the funniest things to happen on the internet, god knows how much I laughed at it and at reactions to it, it's the funniest shit
Luke laughing at his Poll title "Which bread should be baked" and Linus absolutely not caring for it is hilarious. The biggest bread bun and the middle baguette would be great.
linus going through the heaviest merch message in recent memory while Luke holds bread to the camera and say "big. Small. Big. Small. Big. Small." is funnier than it has any right to be
I bought my 2016 Razer Blade in America and then I moved to Japan. It mysteriously died and Razer Japan honored the warranty and got it fixed and sent back super fast! Razer support really did me well! 🎉
The "career advice" at 02:05:30 actually has some merit though, if your boss doesn't listen to you as a tech lead, you should def be looking for another job otherwise you'll always be stuck in "boss driven development". Source: been there
Regarding the topic at 3:20:41, your video on car dash cameras is probably one of my favourite videos on your channel. I learned so much and it helped me make an informed purchasing decision. Really looking forward at what's to come!
In my opinion if people are not "tech savvy" enough to navigate to the beta tab and switch versions than its probably good that they have the most current and supported version automatically.
IRIC the launch options statement is false. It used to be that way where you could choose what to launch when cs2 was in beta. Now that cs2 released on wednesday, I don't recall having the option of choosing GO
@@mladyswagalotIt is under the betas tab in properties. That’s where it always is for every stream game that supports it. Though overall I’d prefer if you could install csgo separately even if cs2 is replacing go, just to have easier access to community servers and replays.
Jump from CS 1.5 to 1.6 was huge as not only did it come with changes to the game but it was the move into Steam for the first time. The beginning was bumpy, things didn't work right and a lot of people stayed behind in 1.5 for a fair bit of time because of it.
I remember everyone in my telecom and comp Sci classes had a thumb drive with 1.5 (because it was a stand-alone release, as you mentioned) , Halo CE, and Warcraft III. Literally every day was a Lan party, I really miss those days :[ Edit: context for relevance
3:32 Source was a pretty big game. The community servers were great and it kind of hit its stride right when Steam was starting to move from their Green to Gray UI days which was right when steam was gaining momentum.
@Taistelupelto4203 000 average players is not that big. It's about double the numbers of Mordhau which has been considered "dead" since it was around 3 000 players average :)
Linus I would not recommend a spell casting class for beginners for DND usually because it is much more complicated baldurs gate kinda forces it on your with gale. But main thing with your magic missile not showing up. You probably learned the spell but didn’t “prepare it” you need to go to your camp open your spell book at the camp and choose what spells you have prepared for the day. If your still not seeing it while it’s prepared you can click on the action your going to take to refine to those. So click the full action green icon and you should see magic missile somewhere there.
@@ShaedStealer I won’t debate with you if it worked for you outside of the camp cool. I thought I remembered in game text saying you must go to camp to do this. Could also be a console vs pc thing though. I was on ps5. Or maybe you can do it outside of camp if all your spell slots arnt already full? Like if you leave a couple open then you can add them outside? Idk. I’ll have to experiment. Finished the game like 3-4 days ago after 100 hrs. Taking a lil break for now 😅 cyber punk has been fun. I’m also coming from DnD and I’m just used to it working that way with the table top. Where you can only switch when at camp/ taking a long rest.
Larian and From Software are pretty much the last relics of when games used to be made for people that actually play them instead of this neverending chase of pleasing people that will play it once and forget about it
Honestly, it seems like Japan has kept it going in general. Nintendo has largely stayed true to their roots, as has bandai, square enix, Sony, etc. They aren't perfect, but they never were. They are beating the shit out of the sell outs that plague the US game devs though
I don't know much about From Software - their games aren't my thing. Played ER for a bit but got bored a few hours in. But after something like few thousands hours spent in Baldur's Gate series, to me, BG3 is atrociously bad. It may be a good Original Sin game, but it can't hold a candle to BG1 and 2. If this is supposed to be a messiah of gaming, then gaming is fucked.
@@bassben004not sure Square Enix is the best example here but I agree on the other stuff. The recent Xbox leaks talking about those strategies from a business perspective were very eye opening though. From the leaks and the talk by the Bungie CEO(?) at GDC on over-delivering, the trend looks like fewer risks being taken by game studios, which is gonna mean shittier games in the long run. We're already seeing that and thinking about where the industry is headed makes me sad.
@@SylvanFeanturiI'd say ER is by far the worst game from them in years, it is the most polished and it has a brilliant game inside but it is dilluted in hundreds of hours of absolute garbage generic content... Demon/Dark Souls and Bloodborne are essentially just the good parts of ER
Regarding the supplement sponsors. You could controll AG1 to see whats up. In the EU the ingredients have to be listed by mass. One researcher simply took a supplement from the middle, sent it into a lab and got a good estimation. Turns out a lot of stuff is just 300x less then it needs to have any effect.
On the subject of "The Wall" and large TVs. I recently noticed that LG sells a 325 inch 8K microLED display you can just order off online retailers. Its only $1.3 million
The case of CS 2 is more to do with source 2 than the "subtick" system. It just feels different, better. Try HL Alyx, it also feels great for a shooter, on the same engine
@@Am_YeffI have no idea what weird corner of the Internet you're in where the most talked about game of 2020 was half life alyx, when Ghost of Tsushima, AC Valhalla, Spiderman: Miles Morales, the last of us 2, Hades, and animal crossing all came out in 2020 and were all WAY more talked about. I heard about hl alyx unlike the other commentor, but to say it was the most talked about game it hilarious levels of delusion
@@FinneasJedidiahHalf Life Alyx was a sequel to a series that hasn't had any releases for thirteen years. A franchise people were certain was dead. The hype was unreal. Assassin's Creed is an annual release. Ghosts of Tsushima is great but a new franchise. No game has ever had the level of hype that a new Half Life game had.
@@GuyGamer1 go to Google trends, put the time frame for 2020, and put in different search terms for 'half life alyx' until you get the one that shows the highest peak. Then do the same for 'ac valhalla', 'animal crossing new horizons', and 'ghost of tsushima'. You'll see that ALL of them COMPETELY overshadow half life:alyx. Look, I get that you're probably chronically online, and in your little corner of the Internet everyone owns a VR headset and has half life 2 as their favorite game of all time. But you have to be completely out of touch with reality to think that the Internet as a whole was more excited for half life alyx than any of those other games in 2020.
I remember when less than thirty inch plasma flat screen was fifteen thousand dollars, so getting quatum dot one hundred fifteen inch lcd for the same price is a bargain, especially considering inflation. That fifteen thousand back then is probably like forty thousand today.
3:33:29 this is one of the biggest reasons why I really like jujutsu kaizen and chainsawman. it isn't killing for the sake of shocking or reviving just to have a happy ending but it is a show willing to make things permanent and relevant to the story
Burst fire and tapping is viable and preferred depending on the context. Having the freedom to employ different shooting techniques is nice. Arena shooters required different types of aiming some of which heavily relied on rotations through the map and item spawn which could be considered memory based as well. We're playing video games, and esport titles especially have no need for basis in reality. I think recoil patterns can help counter the short TTK but ultimately the problem you're describing is the same reason the core audience has remained. Lack of change has kept people happy for 20 years and will continue to for the foreseeable future. Most of the complaints are rooted in the netcode not being smoothed out yet, but just comparing 2 weeks ago it already felt 10x better upon official release. EDIT: to make it clear I like the recoil system.
CS is a simulated chess match wrapped in fancy clothing, it has no need to match the clothing in realism or any of the sort. It's just an arena of skill.
@@alainportant6412 I don't think it is bizarre, it's an extremely tactical game. Obviously there are quite a lot of differences to chess 💀 but you gotta think a lot in competitive CS.
@@Wavpro I’m personally a fan of the recoil patterns. I’ve heard Linus’ realism argument from multiple people in different games and it’s makes no sense. Having a defining mechanic that serves a good purpose in a game is more important than meeting the standards of reality. At the end of the day we’re escaping reality to play these games anyways.
I'd say the biggest issues are: - poor performance even on high-mid/low-high end PCs - Lack of anticheat - Unbalanced matches - Lack of custom map support - netcode is actually good, it's just that movement, sprays, etc... are calculated 64 times a second when they could be subticked and synced to framerate instead. But seeing their pace when it comes to updates, we'll get there much quicker than you might think.
@@dyft4w659 Agreed, especially with AC as the leaderboards will look horrible if they don’t take a more aggressive stance. I remember when GO came out, I uninstalled immediately and went back to my surf servers on Source 😂 already in a better state than that mess.
Memorizing patterns and employing them is definitely skill. Not the kind Linus enjoys maybe. But still. Especially practicing that knowledge so it becomes almost reflex. That's almost the definition of learning a skill. Learning a pattern and practicing following it until you can perform it flawlessly and reflexively. :-D But this is semantics. Linus prefers reactive skill - reacting to randomness - to practiced skill in games that can be learned with study. That's fine as a personal preference.
I think the point is that it's not the skill that should differentiate people in video games. Being able to do triple digit multiplication in your head is also a skill, but it also isn't the one that should differentiate people in video games. The skills that should matter are hand eye coordination, reacting to visual and auditory stimuli, etc.
@@ChaimS Except the alternative to a set spray pattern isn't changing the skill related to spray, but removing a layer of skill. In another system you reduce the outcome of a spray to nearly pure randomness.
About BG3: I *really* would like to have a hex overlay so I'd have a better grasp of distances. About EVs: fun fact, *heat* kills batteries faster than cold. Cold just decreases capacity *at that moment* but has little long term effect.
Haven't heard the full section yet but did anyone mention to them that CS 2 has an accessibility option where the crosshair follows the recoil pattern? It's a great feature and helps lower the bar for people like me who suck at memorizing it on their own.
During 1.5/1.6, our clan used to run around with only a deagle, killing people trying to use bots, with nothing but headshots. We would then have the people using bots saying we were bots. It was nothing for us and only used other weapons when we were having fun with others not botting. I haven't really played much since then, so not sure how much different it is now.
On the arm wrestling question, I think the WAN show intro pixel art is what throws people off - both your characters have the same width of pixels representing your arm, so it gives the impression of a fair and balanced set of guns rather than a hunting rifle v automatic shotgun.
i had 3 different monitors, all different sizes. The change in DPI between monitors absolutely killed my eyes. I still don't have 3 identical models, but now I have consistent DPI (and the bezels match, huge plus) and my eyes aren't straining anymore
The argument that the recoil pattern is just memorization is stupid to me, because for a highly competitive game, in my opinion, the worst thing you could do is increase randomness. I can see why for scrubs like us it would be more fun, but the eSports scene that valve has cultivated would oppose that change so hard, and would probably be worse for the game in the long term.
Valve did add randomization to firing back in 2017 or 2018, and quickly removed it because the game became too random to control. Basically people were just getting lucky shots off because their bullets weren’t targeted anymore.
I also want to argue that it is more skill than memorization, for a lot of reasons actually. If you want to implement a system that emulates someone learning how to control a gun better this system actually works very well. The alternative of just pull down harder isn’t better because now it takes no thought nor reflects learning how to control a gun better. Ya if you are spraying at a wall standing still it’s just memorization really. But very rarely in the game does a situation occur where you are just memorizing a spray pattern. Once you take into consideration movement and multiple enemies it gets a lot more complicated. If you need to shoot at two people, you need to both aim at the second person after killing the first, but also remember where in the spray you are. It sounds like memorizing but thats not how it plays out for me at least, and at the end of the day its WAY more engaging than just pulling down. Same thing for moving. If you start shooting before you stop moving, or move while shooting, you need to account for where your bullets are going to land once your shots aren’t in a random cone from moving. Then also it really is more intuitive than it sounds. Even before they added the feature for your crosshair to follow the pattern perfectly, the bounce of the crosshair was already proportional to where your spray was going to go. More specifically, the vector from the point you started shooting and your crosshair is always exactly half of where the shot will land. So if you know this and keep it in mind you can control the recoil with zero memorization and just the “feel” of it, plus tracers help. Idk, I just think that there is a lot more to this mechanic than just memorizing a thing and it adds a lot of depth imp.
@@godminnette2 Then the game have no depth? If recoil is bad and people want no recoil, we should be filled with fps games with no recoil? Can you name one popular fps game with no recoil?
@@saladgreens912 Yeah, remember things and the ability to do it with your memorization is complete two different skill sets. With the take "memorization is not skill", building a computer is not a skill.
In addition to region-specific support, the different region-specific variants of monitors are also a big issue especially when some lack features the others have. For instance there’s the APC 24G2 vs 24G2E. The E is an international version that lacks the height/swivel stand whereas the American 24G2 does.
I work within the commercial av industry and have had many conversations with manufacturers and alot of the time with regards to support across different regions it comes down to which business unit got the margin from the initial sale (which has some of the support cost baked in to be used down the road) if another business unit for example EMEA takes over a support case for APAC then APAC walks away with all the markin and EMEA is left in the hole
I'm completely surprised at Luke's view on Protonmail, it was started at literal CERN, which should definitely have at least equal public image to NASA. Pidgin is a cool app, tho, so I'm swiping center on Luke right now.
My issue with protonmail is more nuanced than I had properly explained. Most people that I know that have protonmail(myself included) use it for very specific things. I don't give my proton mail to my Mom and Dad for instance. If someone I was expecting to get into a relationship with gave me their proton mail I would see that as sus. If someone I was interested in getting into a relationship HAD a proton mail that would be a positive.
@@LukeLafreniere That's a fair take, but I'd have to disagree. That entire premise is based on the fact that the person in question is maintaining multiple email accounts from different providers for specific use cases. While that may be true for yourself and "most people you know that have ProtonMail" (and there's nothing invalid about that, do what works best for you), many people simply use ProtonMail as their sole (or at least main) email provider to avoid data mining practices from the likes of Gmail, Outlook, etc. Even you said when discussing the .edu emails "you're just giving all your data to the school, but then again you're also doing that with Gmail," in that respect I don't really see how that would be deemed sus. It's not about anonymity, it's about privacy, while similar those are *not* the same thing. With that said, I feel like a lot of people who use (or rather, pay for) ProtonMail also fall into the @yourname camp anyways lol (if I have to pay for custom domain support regardless, I'd rather give my money to Proton over Google or w/e other mega corp).
About BG3 Annoyances (timestamp 46:00). I feel the "problems" talked about are features and not bugs. You are not supposed to win every dice roll and a part of the game is trying to figure out what choices to pick before it's presented to you. Your team needs to talk to a shade character, then the rogue might have special conversation options so lets send that one. Or you might get the option to deceive, persuade or intimidate an Ogre. In the conversation it says you have no bonus to any option, so they all look equal, but they are not. You need to roll a 5 to deceive the ogre, but a 15 to intimidate. You don't know that until you pick your choice, but if you stop and think it makes sense that the Ogre is easier to deceive than to intimidate. Feature, not a bug.
Yeah the times you actually get pulled into a conversation or other skill check are few and far between and in those cases it mostly makes sense from a narrative perspective (like if you get caught off guard basically)
The biggest issue is that you can't engage in conversation as a party. This isn't just about skills checks, but about having characters that would have every narrative driven reason to interject being unable too unless scripted to do other wise, while still being able to react to skill checks by casting guidance, enhance ability and the like. Not knowing the DC of a check beforehand is perfectly fine, but when every dialogue excludes all members of a party but one it takes away much of the point of playing as a party, especially in coop.
@@guycxz they sometimes do.interject though, especially when it's relevant to their storyline or something, expecting every character to have dialogue for every conversation seems a bit unreasonable imo...
The chat on buying/selling used parts made me really appreciate how easy all those transactions have been for me over the years. Maybe it's a Maine thing. If anything, I've gotten more than I bargained for pretty often, mostly what I expected, and maybe screwed over once that I can think of for like $70. But buying and selling through thousands of dollars over the years has been generally very easy.
Fun fact: While Counter Strike: Source was the first Source Engine game, Half-Life 2 is actually tied for second with a non-Valve game (Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines), presumably due to all the delays HL2 went through.
For the recoil pattern. That's in almost every game. Its just the recoil on CSGO doesn't move the screen. Most FPS games have patterns to the recoil. Which makes guns feel different from eachother.
@@marcusborderlands6177 Sorry I was talking ADS since in most games that has ADS, you wouldn't be hip firing a lot of the time anyway. Only games I can think of that have bloom for ADS is Fortnite, most of the battlefield games (there was a couple that used recoil patterns), and Battlebit. Indie and single player games usually don't have bloom or recoil, and then CoD games, Siege, Apex Legends, Tarkov, Valorant, Titanfall, and many more all use recoil patterns.
The main thing people have to realise with cs, be it csgo or cs2 is that its only a game in a technical sense, its actually more of a sport than anything else.
I respect Linus for being able to listen to community criticism and not only take it seriously, -actually put a bunch of hours into addressing it to improve. Pretty sure LMG could of just been like whatever without much long term consequences. Props for doing the harder thing from someone who often doesn't do the harder thing
14:15 linus says “thats not how guns work” and the merch message was talking about linus frequently saying things like: “that not how that works” Perfect timing
I literally went and bought BG III just to support this amazing game maker. I didn't have to... but I did. I refuse to pay a micro tx EVER. EVER. I pray other devs see what BG III did and emulate it.
What is with the addiction to phone calls? If I am going to call a robot, why can't you simply have a web form, or website or something that isn't going to waste all of my time. There is this technology called autofil that works on websites and web forms, that way we can both save time and money, instead of me being tortured for an hour because of your awful phone system.
Memorizing a shooting pattern is a skill because it takes effort training to use it effectively. It's not "just memorization" and not as easy as Linus makes it sound.
I know this is nothing to get mad about, but when he states his opinions as facts and sometimes gets condescending about said opinion when people disagree, it drives me insane.
As far as Steam goes, you can turn off automatic updates of every game. And some games you can go back to older releases as well, but that's up to developers. For online games, you'll have to be updated with everyone else, or the servers won't let you in.
2:52:00 My Uni allowed gave 6 months of access to email via their portal after leaving (graduated or dropped out, did both), but allowed you to forward any email to that address in perpetuity. I got so many student discounts for a decade after graduation.
I have just one single large monitor than multiple smaller monitors - it uses less desk space, less electricity and is easier/better to view (less head turning and less bezels) - it's definitely a personal preference thing IMHO. I got a brand new Samsung M7 32" 4K smart monitor for £187 and it's all I need. It'll last me years and the next upgrade will simply be an even bigger single monitor. Monitors, like TVs, should be as big as you can afford and fit in your room.
If that works for you then stick with it and don't do multiple... because you might never want to go back. I've been doing a single large and other smaller monitors for nearly 20 years now. I LOVE the productivity of having multiple monitors, and really like having a large main with my primary being a 40" for over a decade now (much larger than that actually gives me headaches because of forcing my vision). My current setup that was upgraded this year is an Asus 43" 4k 144hz and Asus 24" 1080 monitors on the side of it. I almost always have something on all the monitors depending on what I'm doing. You are right about the electricity usage, and I have done a lot of work customizing my desk to make it decent partially because of the monitors. One of the custom things is a switch to turn off all the monitors at once to save on power if I don't want to turn my PC off.
I also have a 32" screen from Samsung. And a 27" vertical + 25" +15" touch. I would prefer to have a 43" instead of the 32+27, but the resolution is to small + the software have to be adapted ( snap on etc). But I would always stick to the smaller ones. Screen sharing is horrible, if you have only one big screen.
@@gregor2436 Thats a lot of different sizes there. I have to have my current 43" set to 150% for basic things because even with my exceptional vision that too small for me to comfortably deal with. I also use DisplayFusion for my multi setup and have for a few years now, makes dealing with them far easier and adjustable. If the 43" was curved and/or ultra wide it might be better for single display but I'm so used to just throwing something to the side monitor and not have to worry about programs overlapping that I don't really want to deal with that. I've considered doing a vertical mount for my side monitors because they would be almost perfect to match up that way, but don't want the hassle and I tend to do a lot of web/video stuff on them so it would make that less useable on the fly..
Since CS2 is Windows-only, all the CSGO players on Mac or Linux are now just left without a game. CSGO was just made not playable anymore with the update
"The fan boys that pay to be a part of our inner circle video platform are more positive to what I'm saying than everyone else" Gee, ya think? This never fails to make my eyes roll back into my head.
Maybe you don't play ultra-competetive games, but this is a giant upgrade. Even just the smokes on the new engine are huge, and will change the gameplay forever. Every small change is huge for CS, and valve put a lot of effort into making the new game similar. CS players don't like change you know.
Yeah I wonder how many of these people were around for the launch of CS:GO. It was universally haaaated and proclaimed to be the death of Counter-Strike. Going even further back, it was the exact same story with CS:S - people said the physics on things like barrels and map clutter were "too random" and made it uncompetitive, the spray patterns were too different, the grenades bounced too much, the hitboxes were too big, the tickrate on official servers was too low (to be fair that last one *was* a legit issue for a long time) Point being, you're absolutely right and CS players are notoriously big babies when it comes to change
@@ES315those changes were a lot bigger though. Like they basically changed everything going from 1.6 to cs:go and during cs:go's lifetime the game changed a lot. This feels more like a reskined cs:go
@@zwenkwiel816 they went from source to go not 1.6 to go, and there was not a huge difference between source and go at the beginning honestly. I'd say less than CS2 and go in some ways.
Regarding Counter Strike spray patterns: Almost nobody "memorizes" it. It is not some fixed protocol you can deploy, as it will always be different depending on distance and other factors. It is a thing you get right by intuition, so definitely more of a skill issue.
3:20:42 I've got a 2008 Honda Fit, and installed an Atoto S8 with their backup camera and on-wheel RF remote. It isn't perfect, but it's better than I expected. Just a few hundred bucks, and I've got wireless Carplay /AAuto, a pretty great quality reverse camera, and an on-wheel remote for the radio controls! 100% will pass this radio onto my next car, whenever that happens. (If I don't upgrade to one of their more expensive options, and sell this car with the radio)
ive got the same unit...the steering wheel controls worked without any other doodads as the toyota doesnt really communicate data....so it wires direct to the 2 wires on the atoto.... i dont use android auto because i dont understand why people DO use it.... I only use bluetooth and downloaded open street maps for the gps
I could have sworn the 1st Source engine game was Half-Life 1 which was ported from the modded Quake engine to the new source engine a few months prior to CS: Source and Half-Life 2 releasing.
I think all 3 launched at once. I for sure know CS:S and HL2 launched at exactly the same time because I bought the collectors edition of HL2 which game with both HL2 and CS:S but im not 100% sure when HL:S launched
@@CHA0SHACKER Yep that was it. HL: Source was the port of HL1 into the new engine and did infact release end of spring/beginning of summer of that year, months prior to CS: Source and HL2
my left monitor (also first monitor) legit found in the garbage of my apartment building. Luckily there was a light switch in the garbage room. Plugged it in looked fine. Dell U2718Q. later found out the HDMI plug was on the fritz so I just used a display port cable. I still have it 4 years later! i did buy another dell 1440 144hz monitor for gaming but it literally got me into PC building
I'm a CS esports journalist, the release of CS2 is actually taken majorly positively we just all see the issues. Everyone is happy to be doing something new, and we understand the fact we need to be patient. There's just very loud groups of people who were always gonna be upset.
33:22 Hogwarts Legacy is another perfect example of this. They made a great game with 0 microtransactions, and it sold like crazy and made a bunch of money. They don't even have any planned DLC/expansions for the game.
TOTK too, and no major bugs and Nintendo actually took a whole year to fix bugs. I loved BG3 for acts 1 and 2 but act 3 wasn’t finished. 1 character only failed state endings (and even now, the patched ending is not the best one that was data mined). No promised epilogues that depended on your choices throughout the game (the 1000 possible endings that were promised.) performance issues. Bugs galore (a 1000 were cleared in one post release patch and there are still more that exist). Characters would no longer interact or react much in act 3. Plot lines were unfinished. Choices in dialogue would be missing and would lock into certain choices without many players realising. And a whole lot more. It’s a masterpiece of gaming but I wish I had waited until it was properly finished. There really should have been more criticism of this so that people would know to wait. I know a few people who are waiting in acts 2 until the epilogue is added.
On the flip side, you need to put any human decency away to play legacy, as buying the game means supporting a horrible, transphobe and antisemitic garbage person, who spends millions to increase hate against them. :/
@@cszqravr while I haven't played hogwarts legacy (waiting for deep sales as it looks a bit mid to me) I think that way of thinking is a very, very slippery slope. If you're buying a modern product you're not just giving money to one individual, these things are highly collaborative and involve dozens, hundreds, or thousands of people. Hypothetically, I think if you were to 'vet' every single person who is "in the chain" of nearly any product that you've purchased, I suspect in nearly every instance you'd find at least one person who you would find unsavory or who is actively involved in something you don't like. On the flipside, during this vetting process you would almost certainly find a bunch of people involved who you thought were wonderful, too, some of which will be people whose worldview and affiliations very much align with your own. In the case of this game I'd be willing to bet at least a few are trans people and Jews. Does their contribution to the world in the form of this game now no longer matter or count solely because of the views of JK Rowling? Why does ONLY her views matter and not everybody else who financially benefited from the project? To be clear, I'm not objecting to your choosing not to play the game over her views, that's perfectly fine, we all have that agency. However, you being seemingly VERY willing to write other people off entirely as having 'no decency' because they wanted and chose to play a fucking harry potter game is so obnoxious, pompous and nauseating that I honestly think you were born in the wrong time period and would have been way better off conducting the Spanish inquisition. Get off your moral high horse, because news flash, you're not above anyone else.
@@cszqravrof course, all people playing hogwarts legacy & loving the wizarding world are transphobic. Including the lgbtqia+ people playing the game and loving this universe. Yes, jkr has very bad positions on the trans topic. But it does not make the world bad & it does not make people bad or evil, buying these products. Even a game, where you can literally play a trans person (for me - I don't play modern games to often - was the first game allowing it). To be honest: pumping up playing a game like this as a war against trans persons (what it is not of course) is not doing any person a favour. P.s.: this antisemitism stuff is such a bullshit. Or better: harry potter is a result of European culture. And within all the legends, fantasy creatures, there are always a bit antisemitism baked in. It is part of the history. If you are referencing the figures, you can interpret it in this direction. But it does not make the books antisemitic. And not the author (jkr spoke multiple times against antisemitism!). To be honest: I think almost no one associated goblins with Jews. And I definitely would not do it - why on earth should they be? It is way more important to fight real antisemitism and real transphobic behaviour than illusions/consumers. As e.g. the parties, which want to eradicate trans persons - there is a whole campaign running in the us. And - I fear, they will win next elections. And it is definitely not because of Harry Potter.
It was a normal night until I asked google assistant to play “songs I would like”. I got Luke singing “my heart will go on” (ai cover) on UA-cam Music. It was so weird and I was so dumbfounded that it played all the way through. Then BAM UA-cam Music hits an iceberg of it’s own and down she goes, I let out a perfectly valid “wtf” and proceeded to drive halfway home in silence… “Hey Google- play… music…” It plays Arcade Fire. The theme of the night was apparently wacky Canadian art
If memorization is not skill then speedrunning, which is mostly, in a lot of games, memorizing the route, the movement, etc, takes no skill which I’d say is fundamentally flawed and disrespectful
He’s getting upset that nerds are gonna nerd. Especially with money on the line, people are going to explore and exploit every mechanic of a game including recoil. What he fails to realize is that spraying isn’t the only form of shooting technique in cs. A more appropriate complaint would’ve been cheese like one-way smokes, which they are clearly trying to eliminate with cs2.

I dont understand linus take on the recoil. Training the recoil for different weapons until you have it in your muscle memory is no skill, but random recoil is? Also the reallife arguement is not valid, its not eft or arma, it never had the claim to be realistic.
I hate when people debate the types of tutorials in games when there should ALWAYS just be a "i've played video games button" that lets you skip the tutorial. Honestly even with games i don't understand I prefer to skip the tutorial because more often then not its more entertaining to learn as i go.
AI's minimum hardware requirement to achieve sentience is for it to run in a quantum CPU. As F. Scott Fitzgerald said, “The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function”.

Having a chance to play old versions of games is actually incredibly important when it comes to modded games. Take Skyrim SE for example, Bethesda decided to release a patch for Skyrim SE after a really long time and it broke every mod that used SKSE. Obviously there were no way to download older version through Steam so it was a painful moment. Some mod authors don't even update those mods anymore so they are unplayable after Steam updates the game.

In my opinion if people are not "tech savvy" enough to navigate to the beta tab and switch versions than its probably good that they have the most current and supported version automatically.
If people are that stupid and unwilling to learn how to click a fucking button, I’d rather they be left out.
IRIC the launch options statement is false.
It used to be that way where you could choose what to launch when cs2 was in beta.
Now that cs2 released on wednesday, I don't recall having the option of choosing GO
Unless the option is under the submenu where you verifu integrity and browse files, haven't checked there yet.
@@mladyswagalot it is there, under betas. You enable it once and get to chose what to launch forever after.
@@mladyswagalotIt is under the betas tab in properties. That’s where it always is for every stream game that supports it.
Though overall I’d prefer if you could install csgo separately even if cs2 is replacing go, just to have easier access to community servers and replays.
Jump from CS 1.5 to 1.6 was huge as not only did it come with changes to the game but it was the move into Steam for the first time. The beginning was bumpy, things didn't work right and a lot of people stayed behind in 1.5 for a fair bit of time because of it.
I remember everyone in my telecom and comp Sci classes had a thumb drive with 1.5 (because it was a stand-alone release, as you mentioned) , Halo CE, and Warcraft III. Literally every day was a Lan party, I really miss those days :[

3:32 Source was a pretty big game. The community servers were great and it kind of hit its stride right when Steam was starting to move from their Green to Gray UI days which was right when steam was gaining momentum.

Linus I would not recommend a spell casting class for beginners for DND usually because it is much more complicated baldurs gate kinda forces it on your with gale. But main thing with your magic missile not showing up. You probably learned the spell but didn’t “prepare it” you need to go to your camp open your spell book at the camp and choose what spells you have prepared for the day. If your still not seeing it while it’s prepared you can click on the action your going to take to refine to those. So click the full action green icon and you should see magic missile somewhere there.
You don't need to go to camp to do all that. You can adjust prepared spells anytime as long as you are out of combat.
@@ShaedStealer I won’t debate with you if it worked for you outside of the camp cool. I thought I remembered in game text saying you must go to camp to do this. Could also be a console vs pc thing though. I was on ps5. Or maybe you can do it outside of camp if all your spell slots arnt already full? Like if you leave a couple open then you can add them outside? Idk. I’ll have to experiment. Finished the game like 3-4 days ago after 100 hrs. Taking a lil break for now 😅 cyber punk has been fun.
I’m also coming from DnD and I’m just used to it working that way with the table top. Where you can only switch when at camp/ taking a long rest.
Larian and From Software are pretty much the last relics of when games used to be made for people that actually play them instead of this neverending chase of pleasing people that will play it once and forget about it
Honestly, it seems like Japan has kept it going in general. Nintendo has largely stayed true to their roots, as has bandai, square enix, Sony, etc. They aren't perfect, but they never were. They are beating the shit out of the sell outs that plague the US game devs though
I don't know much about From Software - their games aren't my thing. Played ER for a bit but got bored a few hours in. But after something like few thousands hours spent in Baldur's Gate series, to me, BG3 is atrociously bad. It may be a good Original Sin game, but it can't hold a candle to BG1 and 2. If this is supposed to be a messiah of gaming, then gaming is fucked.
@@bassben004not sure Square Enix is the best example here but I agree on the other stuff. The recent Xbox leaks talking about those strategies from a business perspective were very eye opening though. From the leaks and the talk by the Bungie CEO(?) at GDC on over-delivering, the trend looks like fewer risks being taken by game studios, which is gonna mean shittier games in the long run. We're already seeing that and thinking about where the industry is headed makes me sad.

Regarding the supplement sponsors. You could controll AG1 to see whats up. In the EU the ingredients have to be listed by mass.

3:33:29 this is one of the biggest reasons why I really like jujutsu kaizen and chainsawman. it isn't killing for the sake of shocking or reviving just to have a happy ending but it is a show willing to make things permanent and relevant to the story
Burst fire and tapping is viable and preferred depending on the context. Having the freedom to employ different shooting techniques is nice. Arena shooters required different types of aiming some of which heavily relied on rotations through the map and item spawn which could be considered memory based as well. We're playing video games, and esport titles especially have no need for basis in reality. I think recoil patterns can help counter the short TTK but ultimately the problem you're describing is the same reason the core audience has remained. Lack of change has kept people happy for 20 years and will continue to for the foreseeable future.
Most of the complaints are rooted in the netcode not being smoothed out yet, but just comparing 2 weeks ago it already felt 10x better upon official release.
EDIT: to make it clear I like the recoil system.
CS is a simulated chess match wrapped in fancy clothing, it has no need to match the clothing in realism or any of the sort. It's just an arena of skill.
@@alainportant6412 I don't think it is bizarre, it's an extremely tactical game. Obviously there are quite a lot of differences to chess 💀 but you gotta think a lot in competitive CS.
@@Wavpro I’m personally a fan of the recoil patterns. I’ve heard Linus’ realism argument from multiple people in different games and it’s makes no sense.
Having a defining mechanic that serves a good purpose in a game is more important than meeting the standards of reality. At the end of the day we’re escaping reality to play these games anyways.
I'd say the biggest issues are:
- poor performance even on high-mid/low-high end PCs
- Lack of anticheat
- Unbalanced matches
- Lack of custom map support
- netcode is actually good, it's just that movement, sprays, etc... are calculated 64 times a second when they could be subticked and synced to framerate instead.
But seeing their pace when it comes to updates, we'll get there much quicker than you might think.
@@dyft4w659 Agreed, especially with AC as the leaderboards will look horrible if they don’t take a more aggressive stance. I remember when GO came out, I uninstalled immediately and went back to my surf servers on Source 😂 already in a better state than that mess.
Ag1: 90 day money back is a scam and they will not honor it.
Memorizing patterns and employing them is definitely skill. Not the kind Linus enjoys maybe. But still. Especially practicing that knowledge so it becomes almost reflex. That's almost the definition of learning a skill. Learning a pattern and practicing following it until you can perform it flawlessly and reflexively. :-D
But this is semantics. Linus prefers reactive skill - reacting to randomness - to practiced skill in games that can be learned with study. That's fine as a personal preference.
100%
It's like saying that playing instrument is not a skill because all you do is in fact... memorizing patterns!
I think the point is that it's not the skill that should differentiate people in video games. Being able to do triple digit multiplication in your head is also a skill, but it also isn't the one that should differentiate people in video games. The skills that should matter are hand eye coordination, reacting to visual and auditory stimuli, etc.
@@ChaimS Except the alternative to a set spray pattern isn't changing the skill related to spray, but removing a layer of skill. In another system you reduce the outcome of a spray to nearly pure randomness.

Haven't heard the full section yet but did anyone mention to them that CS 2 has an accessibility option where the crosshair follows the recoil pattern? It's a great feature and helps lower the bar for people like me who suck at memorizing it on their own.
I remember you used to have to install hacks for this feature in csgo wonder why valve never added it in csgo
During 1.5/1.6, our clan used to run around with only a deagle, killing people trying to use bots, with nothing but headshots. We would then have the people using bots saying we were bots. It was nothing for us and only used other weapons when we were having fun with others not botting. I haven't really played much since then, so not sure how much different it is now.

On the arm wrestling question, I think the WAN show intro pixel art is what throws people off - both your characters have the same width of pixels representing your arm, so it gives the impression of a fair and balanced set of guns rather than a hunting rifle v automatic shotgun.
i had 3 different monitors, all different sizes. The change in DPI between monitors absolutely killed my eyes. I still don't have 3 identical models, but now I have consistent DPI (and the bezels match, huge plus) and my eyes aren't straining anymore
You mean PPI right? Not sure what you would mean by doi in this context
Luke's "This is my life" shout was really good.
The argument that the recoil pattern is just memorization is stupid to me, because for a highly competitive game, in my opinion, the worst thing you could do is increase randomness. I can see why for scrubs like us it would be more fun, but the eSports scene that valve has cultivated would oppose that change so hard, and would probably be worse for the game in the long term.
Valve did add randomization to firing back in 2017 or 2018, and quickly removed it because the game became too random to control. Basically people were just getting lucky shots off because their bullets weren’t targeted anymore.
Then don't have a recoil pattern in the game.
I also want to argue that it is more skill than memorization, for a lot of reasons actually. If you want to implement a system that emulates someone learning how to control a gun better this system actually works very well. The alternative of just pull down harder isn’t better because now it takes no thought nor reflects learning how to control a gun better.
Ya if you are spraying at a wall standing still it’s just memorization really. But very rarely in the game does a situation occur where you are just memorizing a spray pattern.
Once you take into consideration movement and multiple enemies it gets a lot more complicated. If you need to shoot at two people, you need to both aim at the second person after killing the first, but also remember where in the spray you are. It sounds like memorizing but thats not how it plays out for me at least, and at the end of the day its WAY more engaging than just pulling down. Same thing for moving. If you start shooting before you stop moving, or move while shooting, you need to account for where your bullets are going to land once your shots aren’t in a random cone from moving.
Then also it really is more intuitive than it sounds. Even before they added the feature for your crosshair to follow the pattern perfectly, the bounce of the crosshair was already proportional to where your spray was going to go. More specifically, the vector from the point you started shooting and your crosshair is always exactly half of where the shot will land. So if you know this and keep it in mind you can control the recoil with zero memorization and just the “feel” of it, plus tracers help.
Idk, I just think that there is a lot more to this mechanic than just memorizing a thing and it adds a lot of depth imp.
@@godminnette2 Then the game have no depth? If recoil is bad and people want no recoil, we should be filled with fps games with no recoil? Can you name one popular fps game with no recoil?
@@saladgreens912 Yeah, remember things and the ability to do it with your memorization is complete two different skill sets. With the take "memorization is not skill", building a computer is not a skill.
"I'm not going to practice a skill that's only applicable for one game."
But to get good at any one game you have to do this. That's how you get good.
In addition to region-specific support, the different region-specific variants of monitors are also a big issue especially when some lack features the others have. For instance there’s the APC 24G2 vs 24G2E. The E is an international version that lacks the height/swivel stand whereas the American 24G2 does.
I work within the commercial av industry and have had many conversations with manufacturers and alot of the time with regards to support across different regions it comes down to which business unit got the margin from the initial sale (which has some of the support cost baked in to be used down the road) if another business unit for example EMEA takes over a support case for APAC then APAC walks away with all the markin and EMEA is left in the hole
I'm completely surprised at Luke's view on Protonmail, it was started at literal CERN, which should definitely have at least equal public image to NASA. Pidgin is a cool app, tho, so I'm swiping center on Luke right now.
My issue with protonmail is more nuanced than I had properly explained. Most people that I know that have protonmail(myself included) use it for very specific things. I don't give my proton mail to my Mom and Dad for instance. If someone I was expecting to get into a relationship with gave me their proton mail I would see that as sus. If someone I was interested in getting into a relationship HAD a proton mail that would be a positive.
@@LukeLafreniere That's a fair take, but I'd have to disagree. That entire premise is based on the fact that the person in question is maintaining multiple email accounts from different providers for specific use cases. While that may be true for yourself and "most people you know that have ProtonMail" (and there's nothing invalid about that, do what works best for you), many people simply use ProtonMail as their sole (or at least main) email provider to avoid data mining practices from the likes of Gmail, Outlook, etc. Even you said when discussing the .edu emails "you're just giving all your data to the school, but then again you're also doing that with Gmail," in that respect I don't really see how that would be deemed sus. It's not about anonymity, it's about privacy, while similar those are *not* the same thing.
With that said, I feel like a lot of people who use (or rather, pay for) ProtonMail also fall into the @yourname camp anyways lol (if I have to pay for custom domain support regardless, I'd rather give my money to Proton over Google or w/e other mega corp).
i CANT WAIT TO CHILLLLLLLLLLLLL
About BG3 Annoyances (timestamp 46:00). I feel the "problems" talked about are features and not bugs. You are not supposed to win every dice roll and a part of the game is trying to figure out what choices to pick before it's presented to you. Your team needs to talk to a shade character, then the rogue might have special conversation options so lets send that one. Or you might get the option to deceive, persuade or intimidate an Ogre. In the conversation it says you have no bonus to any option, so they all look equal, but they are not. You need to roll a 5 to deceive the ogre, but a 15 to intimidate. You don't know that until you pick your choice, but if you stop and think it makes sense that the Ogre is easier to deceive than to intimidate. Feature, not a bug.
I hate it when there are interesting comments without a timestamp
Yeah the times you actually get pulled into a conversation or other skill check are few and far between and in those cases it mostly makes sense from a narrative perspective (like if you get caught off guard basically)
46:00 @@Ubeogesh
The biggest issue is that you can't engage in conversation as a party. This isn't just about skills checks, but about having characters that would have every narrative driven reason to interject being unable too unless scripted to do other wise, while still being able to react to skill checks by casting guidance, enhance ability and the like. Not knowing the DC of a check beforehand is perfectly fine, but when every dialogue excludes all members of a party but one it takes away much of the point of playing as a party, especially in coop.
@@guycxz they sometimes do.interject though, especially when it's relevant to their storyline or something, expecting every character to have dialogue for every conversation seems a bit unreasonable imo...

The chat on buying/selling used parts made me really appreciate how easy all those transactions have been for me over the years. Maybe it's a Maine thing. If anything, I've gotten more than I bargained for pretty often, mostly what I expected, and maybe screwed over once that I can think of for like $70. But buying and selling through thousands of dollars over the years has been generally very easy.
Fun fact: While Counter Strike: Source was the first Source Engine game, Half-Life 2 is actually tied for second with a non-Valve game (Vampire: The Masquerade: Bloodlines), presumably due to all the delays HL2 went through.
I personally love CS2, but it 100% needs more polish.
everytime i fall asleep watchin videos i wake up to a wan show that youtube auto-played all night
CS2 and CS2 (Cities Skylines 2) are coming out basically at the same time
I'm dying here. I listening while walking through the grocery store laughing my head off from free range shirt to LLD tech debt.
For the recoil pattern. That's in almost every game. Its just the recoil on CSGO doesn't move the screen. Most FPS games have patterns to the recoil. Which makes guns feel different from eachother.
What? No lol. Most games have RANDOMIZED recoil patterns with bloom. None of this specific shape BS.
@@marcusborderlands6177 Sorry I was talking ADS since in most games that has ADS, you wouldn't be hip firing a lot of the time anyway. Only games I can think of that have bloom for ADS is Fortnite, most of the battlefield games (there was a couple that used recoil patterns), and Battlebit. Indie and single player games usually don't have bloom or recoil, and then CoD games, Siege, Apex Legends, Tarkov, Valorant, Titanfall, and many more all use recoil patterns.
The main thing people have to realise with cs, be it csgo or cs2 is that its only a game in a technical sense, its actually more of a sport than anything else.
True
Yeah like no1's ever asked for more maps to play on in soccer or basketball. XD

I respect Linus for being able to listen to community criticism and not only take it seriously, -actually put a bunch of hours into addressing it to improve. Pretty sure LMG could of just been like whatever without much long term consequences. Props for doing the harder thing from someone who often doesn't do the harder thing

I literally went and bought BG III just to support this amazing game maker. I didn't have to... but I did. I refuse to pay a micro tx EVER. EVER. I pray other devs see what BG III did and emulate it.
What is with the addiction to phone calls? If I am going to call a robot, why can't you simply have a web form, or website or something that isn't going to waste all of my time. There is this technology called autofil that works on websites and web forms, that way we can both save time and money, instead of me being tortured for an hour because of your awful phone system.
In my 29 years, I have never heard the word specious used, but this is now the third time reading or hearing it in the last 10 days.
Memorizing a shooting pattern is a skill because it takes effort training to use it effectively. It's not "just memorization" and not as easy as Linus makes it sound.
It takes a ton of practice, most people get good at spraying after at least a thousand hours.
I know this is nothing to get mad about, but when he states his opinions as facts and sometimes gets condescending about said opinion when people disagree, it drives me insane.
@Josh_2992 Yes, definitely, Linus comes off as so arrogant.

As far as Steam goes, you can turn off automatic updates of every game.
And some games you can go back to older releases as well, but that's up to developers.
For online games, you'll have to be updated with everyone else, or the servers won't let you in.

I have just one single large monitor than multiple smaller monitors - it uses less desk space, less electricity and is easier/better to view (less head turning and less bezels) - it's definitely a personal preference thing IMHO.
I got a brand new Samsung M7 32" 4K smart monitor for £187 and it's all I need. It'll last me years and the next upgrade will simply be an even bigger single monitor. Monitors, like TVs, should be as big as you can afford and fit in your room.
If that works for you then stick with it and don't do multiple... because you might never want to go back.
I've been doing a single large and other smaller monitors for nearly 20 years now. I LOVE the productivity of having multiple monitors, and really like having a large main with my primary being a 40" for over a decade now (much larger than that actually gives me headaches because of forcing my vision). My current setup that was upgraded this year is an Asus 43" 4k 144hz and Asus 24" 1080 monitors on the side of it. I almost always have something on all the monitors depending on what I'm doing.
You are right about the electricity usage, and I have done a lot of work customizing my desk to make it decent partially because of the monitors. One of the custom things is a switch to turn off all the monitors at once to save on power if I don't want to turn my PC off.
I also have a 32" screen from Samsung. And a 27" vertical + 25" +15" touch. I would prefer to have a 43" instead of the 32+27, but the resolution is to small + the software have to be adapted ( snap on etc).
But I would always stick to the smaller ones. Screen sharing is horrible, if you have only one big screen.
@@gregor2436 Thats a lot of different sizes there.
I have to have my current 43" set to 150% for basic things because even with my exceptional vision that too small for me to comfortably deal with. I also use DisplayFusion for my multi setup and have for a few years now, makes dealing with them far easier and adjustable. If the 43" was curved and/or ultra wide it might be better for single display but I'm so used to just throwing something to the side monitor and not have to worry about programs overlapping that I don't really want to deal with that.
I've considered doing a vertical mount for my side monitors because they would be almost perfect to match up that way, but don't want the hassle and I tend to do a lot of web/video stuff on them so it would make that less useable on the fly..
I'm so happy that secret shoppers theme is going to be Monk fav show the amount of joy on my face was just like idk
Since CS2 is Windows-only, all the CSGO players on Mac or Linux are now just left without a game. CSGO was just made not playable anymore with the update

"The fan boys that pay to be a part of our inner circle video platform are more positive to what I'm saying than everyone else" Gee, ya think? This never fails to make my eyes roll back into my head.

Maybe you don't play ultra-competetive games, but this is a giant upgrade. Even just the smokes on the new engine are huge, and will change the gameplay forever. Every small change is huge for CS, and valve put a lot of effort into making the new game similar. CS players don't like change you know.
Yeah I wonder how many of these people were around for the launch of CS:GO. It was universally haaaated and proclaimed to be the death of Counter-Strike. Going even further back, it was the exact same story with CS:S - people said the physics on things like barrels and map clutter were "too random" and made it uncompetitive, the spray patterns were too different, the grenades bounced too much, the hitboxes were too big, the tickrate on official servers was too low (to be fair that last one *was* a legit issue for a long time)
Point being, you're absolutely right and CS players are notoriously big babies when it comes to change
I like it so far. Feels new enough to be interesting yet plays mostly like the old game.
@@ES315those changes were a lot bigger though. Like they basically changed everything going from 1.6 to cs:go and during cs:go's lifetime the game changed a lot.
This feels more like a reskined cs:go
@@zwenkwiel816 they went from source to go not 1.6 to go, and there was not a huge difference between source and go at the beginning honestly. I'd say less than CS2 and go in some ways.
Regarding Counter Strike spray patterns: Almost nobody "memorizes" it. It is not some fixed protocol you can deploy, as it will always be different depending on distance and other factors. It is a thing you get right by intuition, so definitely more of a skill issue.
Lol yeah, Linus just showing what a noob he is here XD
@@zwenkwiel816it IS a rough pattern that you can learn, then let your skill make tiny adjustments.

I could have sworn the 1st Source engine game was Half-Life 1 which was ported from the modded Quake engine to the new source engine a few months prior to CS: Source and Half-Life 2 releasing.
That's half true. Half Life was based on the GoldSrc Engine, which was a fork of the Quake Engine. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/GoldSrc
HL1 was GoldSrc, HL2 was the release of Source 1
I think they are talking about HL: Source
I think all 3 launched at once. I for sure know CS:S and HL2 launched at exactly the same time because I bought the collectors edition of HL2 which game with both HL2 and CS:S but im not 100% sure when HL:S launched
@@CHA0SHACKER Yep that was it. HL: Source was the port of HL1 into the new engine and did infact release end of spring/beginning of summer of that year, months prior to CS: Source and HL2

I still have it 4 years later! i did buy another dell 1440 144hz monitor for gaming but it literally got me into PC building
May we all live in peace and harmony.
I'm a CS esports journalist, the release of CS2 is actually taken majorly positively we just all see the issues.
Everyone is happy to be doing something new, and we understand the fact we need to be patient. There's just very loud groups of people who were always gonna be upset.
33:22 Hogwarts Legacy is another perfect example of this. They made a great game with 0 microtransactions, and it sold like crazy and made a bunch of money. They don't even have any planned DLC/expansions for the game.
TOTK too, and no major bugs and Nintendo actually took a whole year to fix bugs. I loved BG3 for acts 1 and 2 but act 3 wasn’t finished.
1 character only failed state endings (and even now, the patched ending is not the best one that was data mined). No promised epilogues that depended on your choices throughout the game (the 1000 possible endings that were promised.) performance issues. Bugs galore (a 1000 were cleared in one post release patch and there are still more that exist). Characters would no longer interact or react much in act 3. Plot lines were unfinished. Choices in dialogue would be missing and would lock into certain choices without many players realising. And a whole lot more.
It’s a masterpiece of gaming but I wish I had waited until it was properly finished. There really should have been more criticism of this so that people would know to wait. I know a few people who are waiting in acts 2 until the epilogue is added.
On the flip side, you need to put any human decency away to play legacy, as buying the game means supporting a horrible, transphobe and antisemitic garbage person, who spends millions to increase hate against them. :/
@@cszqravrno it doesn’t. The developers came out in full support of trans rights and even included a positive representation in a character.
@@cszqravr while I haven't played hogwarts legacy (waiting for deep sales as it looks a bit mid to me) I think that way of thinking is a very, very slippery slope. If you're buying a modern product you're not just giving money to one individual, these things are highly collaborative and involve dozens, hundreds, or thousands of people. Hypothetically, I think if you were to 'vet' every single person who is "in the chain" of nearly any product that you've purchased, I suspect in nearly every instance you'd find at least one person who you would find unsavory or who is actively involved in something you don't like.
On the flipside, during this vetting process you would almost certainly find a bunch of people involved who you thought were wonderful, too, some of which will be people whose worldview and affiliations very much align with your own. In the case of this game I'd be willing to bet at least a few are trans people and Jews. Does their contribution to the world in the form of this game now no longer matter or count solely because of the views of JK Rowling? Why does ONLY her views matter and not everybody else who financially benefited from the project?
To be clear, I'm not objecting to your choosing not to play the game over her views, that's perfectly fine, we all have that agency. However, you being seemingly VERY willing to write other people off entirely as having 'no decency' because they wanted and chose to play a fucking harry potter game is so obnoxious, pompous and nauseating that I honestly think you were born in the wrong time period and would have been way better off conducting the Spanish inquisition. Get off your moral high horse, because news flash, you're not above anyone else.
@@cszqravrof course, all people playing hogwarts legacy & loving the wizarding world are transphobic. Including the lgbtqia+ people playing the game and loving this universe.
Yes, jkr has very bad positions on the trans topic. But it does not make the world bad & it does not make people bad or evil, buying these products. Even a game, where you can literally play a trans person (for me - I don't play modern games to often - was the first game allowing it).
To be honest: pumping up playing a game like this as a war against trans persons (what it is not of course) is not doing any person a favour.
P.s.: this antisemitism stuff is such a bullshit. Or better: harry potter is a result of European culture. And within all the legends, fantasy creatures, there are always a bit antisemitism baked in. It is part of the history. If you are referencing the figures, you can interpret it in this direction. But it does not make the books antisemitic. And not the author (jkr spoke multiple times against antisemitism!). To be honest: I think almost no one associated goblins with Jews. And I definitely would not do it - why on earth should they be?
It is way more important to fight real antisemitism and real transphobic behaviour than illusions/consumers. As e.g. the parties, which want to eradicate trans persons - there is a whole campaign running in the us. And - I fear, they will win next elections. And it is definitely not because of Harry Potter.

If memorization is not skill then speedrunning, which is mostly, in a lot of games, memorizing the route, the movement, etc, takes no skill which I’d say is fundamentally flawed and disrespectful
I agree, but I'd like to add that speedrunnung would also involve a lot of innovation imo
He’s getting upset that nerds are gonna nerd. Especially with money on the line, people are going to explore and exploit every mechanic of a game including recoil. What he fails to realize is that spraying isn’t the only form of shooting technique in cs.

Having a chance to play old versions of games is actually incredibly important when it comes to modded games. Take Skyrim SE for example, Bethesda decided to release a patch for Skyrim SE after a really long time and it broke every mod that used SKSE. Obviously there were no way to download older version through Steam so it was a painful moment. Some mod authors don't even update those mods anymore so they are unplayable after Steam updates the game.
