Hopefully the second and last chapter has more going on than the intermission had. I'm not sure was the whole thing blatant padding or did the developers just rely on combat alone to keep the player engaged, can't decide which is worse in NWN's case 😀 It didn't. Oof. The expansion as a whole felt …

I moved to the first expansion which I do like a bit more. If OC seems like something a couple complete amateurs cooked up in their moms basement this one feels like someone there actually had at least some idea, but maybe not enough time or resources. I think I'm nearly at the end, the first half …

The Allies do get one interesting unit - Cruisers. Those things can wreck an enemy base in seconds, but you get them so late in the game that it barely matters. But yeah, you need to produce massive quantities of tanks and such to stand a chance during the campaign. Cruisers are fun and the navy …

Grim Dawn A Diablo II clone, but a good one. I got seriously addicted to this over the past few days. It has a look/atmosphere somewhat similar to the movie, Brotherhood of the Wolf , and some fun mechanics like being able to dual-class, freely add components/augments to equipment at any time, and …

...or move on to Red Alert and finally beat the Allied campaing which I've never done. Hmm but then Red Alert has those damn special forces missions where you have to sneak around with that annoying jackass who can blow stuff up and snipe - I have a lot of nostalgia for both Red Alert and C&C but I …

Finished Command & Conquer GDI campaign during the week, had a lot of fun. For me the game is on that sweet spot of being still fun to play and having a lot of happy nostalgia for it at the same time, makes it very easy to shrug off the faults the game clearly has like pathfinding, balance and some …

Re: Strange config.sys menu/menuitem issue

Posted on 2022-10-20, 05:48

I'm the exact opposite of a config.sys wizard and just started messing with them last spring with help from here, but I was taught to format it like this: [MENU] MENUITEM=WINDOWS, Microsoft Windows 98SE MENUITEM=DOS1, MS-DOS 7.10 MENUDEFAULT=WINDOWS, 10 So is it possible it's taking the first word …

I probably would play my ps2 more if it didn't look so bad on my modern TV (I could live with black bars if I have to, just the image quality is aweful). I wonder would even a very expensive scaler like Retrotink 5x or the eventially upcoming expectedly even more expensive OSSC Pro help all that …

Re: Pentium 200 MMX vs Pentium III 500 MHz - Any reason to NOT use the faster hardware?

Posted on 2022-10-09, 19:30

If the P3 is a 500EB, there is more latitude for adjustment of FSB, but even going from 500 to 250MHz won't be slow enough and disabling L1 cache will likely be too slow (doing that on my 1400MHz P3 brings me to fast 386/slow 486 land, so on a 500MHz, it would be too slow). On my system disabling …

C&C3 is actually quite good.. Each for their own etc. C&C3 genuinely makes me angry while playing it, I especially hate the way the game gives you control at the start of a level only to take it away immediately to show something stupid on the map and it keeps happening time and time again. But my …
