by….not putting their driver on winget?

I’m well aware of these. Winget is a disaster of a package manager. All of them just download and run conventional installers with none of the tidiness you get with real package managers on systems actually designed for them. It’s fun watching winget update an app that already updated itself. Do any other GPU vendors typically distribute their drivers through winget?

But the real answer here is Windows Update, which Nvidia does publish drivers through. But not game ready versions, only WHQL certified builds.

you don’t anymore

Because they require extra certification from Microsoft.

Damn, who shit in your cornflakes this morning?

Their drivers have always been available directly from their website.

This app is just for Windows, I’m not sure why you’re blabbing on about package managers

The new app has fewer account requirements than the one it is replacing. With GFE, you needed an account just to get automatic driver updates. With the new app, you can do just about anything except redeem free bundled games without an account.

I’d put Jedi Survivor up there, despite the technical issues. Also no list of best Star Wars games is complete without Republic Commando.

It’s possible with high end PC hardware today. Since when have consoles been 20 years behind PC?

A lot less work for developers, smaller game sizes, and map and game design no longer needing to be built around the onerous limitations of raster lighting and reflections.

Ray tracing is a bigger deal than most people realize. It feels like a gimmick because the games that support it today are still ultimately designed around rasterization.

Path-traced lighting in particular is a huge game changer, and means developers will no longer have to choose between rudimentary global dynamic lighting and very static and storage-intensive baked lighting. You can get the benefits of both without the drawbacks of either, assuming the hardware is up to snuff.

Ray tracing performance that’s actually good enough for games to fully ditch rasterized lighting and reflections

It was also an established IP with name recognition.

What percentage of PC players care about couch co-op?

It’s rated M

It’s a great example. Starfield (like other BGS games) does a lot of things well that few other games do at all. So it’s frustrating when they put out a game that is pretty mediocre outside those few strengths, and also your only real option for scratching those particular itches.

I rented PotC from blockbuster once and all i remember are insane loading times and super janky combat

Was the original release in a poor state?

It can be a good experience, depending on the kinds of games you play and your tolerance for input latency. Don’t go in expecting a miracle and you might be surprised how good it is.

The best experience I’ve had so far is with an Apple TV running Steam Link. My Xbox controller is also able to connect to my PC through the floor just fine, which i find helps a bit with the lag compared to pairing it with the Apple TV.

his other works include twisted metal and drawn to death.

not bad games, but also not games known for their ahem quality storytelling.

i don’t really count remasters that were outsourced, that is 2k and grove street games’ sin

there are gta v mods that add rtgi and hair simulation?
