To be succinct and private.. My incubator worked me for weeks to build rapport and trust with me in my younger days, to get me to tell her a something that she would ultimately, and immediately use and weaponize against me and others.

This wasnt the first time I tried to have a relationship with her, but it did finally open my eyes and become the last. In the many many decades since, I've not so much as acknowledge her existence when crossing paths.

Image says it all. Bethesda's being overhauled and Starfield is not on its list of focus/priority.

Seriously, Can they stop mimicking real life driver behaviors?

They talk about the next patch, future fixes, and other stuff about the game.

Doesnt make the game any better, but some of these smaller things that people put actual effort into deserves some appreciation.

I've used these for years to fuck around/experiment with games I've played to excess (single player games with no ranking/etc/etc where my screwing around could give me any kind of advantage, to be clear), and had no problem getting it running/doing what I want..

Until recently... The only thing that changed was that my OS (Nobara, Fedora based) updated from 42 to 43, and now suddenly Cheat Engine (used via steamtinkerlaunch) and PINCE (Native linux cheat engine-alike) stopped working. Even on old games I successfully used them to screw around with in the past. Yes I select the proper process.

Memory View shows nothing but question marks, value searches that used to work fine don't return anything anymore. Like, it can see the process, but has no access to muck around in the memory itself.. Since it happened with an OS update, I can only assume that something changed in the backend thats interfering with these things running, but I'm not a Sysadmin/IT specialist, I'm just a random user, so I've tried to figure this out myself via internet searches and the like, but I've come up blank on everything I've tried.

Anyone else out there with a similar experience who could provide some aid on the issue?

Thank you for reading.

Without weighing down the post with my opinion on Iceflake games..

I just cant see this being anything but a death call for Skylines II, and possibly the franchise.

I've seen people report the prices were 70/50, and i'm wondering if the immediate hostility cause them to knock it down 10 dollars each before I could get to steam to see it.

Whats your guys opinion on this? I think the prices are ludicrously stupid and detatched from reality.

For the past few days I've had a hell of a time logging in. Usually have to try multiple times, had a few incidents where it took me up to an hour or more before i could finally get it.. I cant find anything about any microsoft login server issues or anything, so I dont know whats going on.

Upscaling and Frame Generation are disasters meant to conceal unfulfilled promises from GPU makers for 4k gaming, and as a coverup for the otherwise horrible performance some modern games have, even at 1080/1440p resolutions.

Upscaling will never, no matter how much AI and overhead you throw at it, create an image that is as good as the same scene rendered at native res.

Frame Generation is a joke, and I am absolutely gobsmacked that people even take it seriously. It is nothing but extra AI frames shoved into your gameplay, worsening latency, response times, and image quality, all so you can artificially inflate a number. 30FPS gaming is, and will always be, infinitely better as an experience, than AI frame doubling a 30fps experience to 60FPS.

and because both these technologies exist, game devs are pushing out less optimized to completely unoptomized games that run like absolute dogshit, requiring you to use upscaling and shit even at 1080p just to get reasonable frame rates on GPUs that should run it just fine if it was optimized better (and we know its optimization, because some of these games do end up getting that optimization pass long after launch, and wouldnt you know.. 9fps suddenly became 60fps)
