reminds me to remind folks that for the command prompt games in Windows 10, you probably need to:
Context menu -> Properties -> Compatibility -> âRun this program as an administratorâ

What is the current Crysis equivalent?
That is to say, the one really demanding game everyone uses as a benchmark
Did we stop doing that?
nothing is really âbaselineâ demanding on high end GPUs nowadays
like if you want to deliberately turn something up to 4K and ultra then you can make it run badly but there isnât a real analog
VR is the system-pusher these days I think. Iâm not sure if thereâs a single title that acts as a benchmark across VR devices.
At some point prior to watching Synecdoche, New York, I distinctly recall hearing someone mention Cotardâs syndrome in a game, or in television, or in another film. What popular media was likely to contain such a reference?
Red Dead Redemption 2 canât run above âMediumâ on the most powerful GPU in existence at 4k60

itâs pretty simple, though. More of an abtract puzzler.
Iâve seen it in the Hannibal TV series, and probably a couple others concerned with medical disorders. Itâs apparently been mentioned on Scrubs and Qwantz, as well as the occasional song, podcast, etc. It looks like the Wikipedia article is one of those cases where someone was determined to purge it of â(In) Popular cultureâ triviaâŠ
but more importantly, it seems itâs mentioned in Vampyr (NPC âThelma Howcroftâ). You were big on that, right?

Is there a LOT of slowdown in the ropeman fight of Crusader of Centy on real hardware?
Thatâs exactly right. Thank you.
Not that I remember, but I only played the PAL version
I think there was some slowdown when he does the multi fist missiles but otherwise I think it was fine?
Am I remembering correctly that FF7âs Cloud Strife was initially an obviously dorky edgelord character named Claud?
Related: FF5âs Butz is supposed to also be a dork, right?
Also related: would it be fair to say FF became lame when the heroes went from dorks to cool people?

Iâm curious what final fantasy protagonist isnât a dork, TBH.
Because from my vantage itâs all of them, maybe especially so from FFVII onwards.
This is a strength, final fantasy is always the thing trying to be a thing teens think is cool, and for this reason is always going to be dorky in the way any stuff thatâs good at nailing the teen psyche will be.

Come on, guys. Iâm just trying to figure out if they wanted to give Cloud a dumb name like clod but ended up caving to fans and is now a coolguy edgelord that Jesse wants to fuck.
actually i have an idea
make @Tulpaâs dad the star

agreed! it is essential that squall and lightning, for instance, are sublime dorks. i appreciate, though, that cecil from ff4 is constantly falling to his knees, crying, etc, and that his big character shift is to become a wimpy paladin who wears an extremely uncool outfit. and yet he also fucks!

without bothering to check, iâm pretty sure the pronunciation of Cloudâs name, based off Katakana, is more close in sound to âClaude,â and some early previews in gaming mags called him that. but in all official Square literature, itâs spelled âCloudâ in English, so this just might be one of those things.
ăŻă©ăŠă (Cloud/crowd) vs. ăŻăăŒă (Claude)
So probably not.
