I remember using a mod to disable the damage requirement.

Everything has hard caps in the config files. Crafting is 5x or 6x, I just set everything to 99 and let the server sort it out. Even at max you will end up waiting for stuff like wood and stone in large quantities. The MMO/mobile game mechanics...

DLSS 3.5 support announced today. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TV0JSoqelNU

This was caused by the game loading all your gun stats each time you swap guns. So the more stuff you carry, the worse it gets. Was fixed in a very early patch back in November or something. But there is also a mod fix for it...

Do I even want to watch this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGRRzOXi1DQ

Here are all possible server settings. I got them from bepinex's server output, however I can't guarantee they all function. Shown values are default. (Brutal mode at the bottom of the post) { "GameDifficulty": 1, "GameModeType": 0...

By the time I quit I had beaten the campaign 8 times and gone through Unity around 40 times. And I barely touched the builder lol, I just copied other people's build guides. Crazy game.

Ship building has me over 600 hours in the game. Sure, I've played through the entire game a couple times but the rest is all in the ship builder.

BepInEx and Bloodstone are now publicly released for 1.0. ModernCamera has also been updated, along with a new storage mod. https://thunderstore.io/c/v-rising/p/Kindred/KindredLogistics/ https://thunderstore.io/c/v-rising/p/vrising/ModernCamera/...

Mods probably help a lot. Get bored, install new mods. Especially with Bethesda games, there is always something new to try. Also I was still discovering stuff in Stanfeld at the 400 hour mark. People are overly harsh on this game.

In a game where everyone is Japanese, putting a white guy in there would also be diversity.

Where's my down syndrome main character, blind character, deaf character or quadriplegic character? So many underrepresented groups in gaming.

Two problems, they are claiming he is gay because the game allows both protags to romance anyone (like previous games). And they are intentionally ignoring the fact that he was a real person, "samurai" label aside. "Real" should not be in quotes...

You have to hand it to Ubisoft though. They found the one guy in Japan in the 1500s who was black.

https://www.polygon.com/23951402/mass-effect-5-teaser-trailer-bioware-n7-day The teasers indicate that there’s some sort of distress signal that originates from the Andromeda galaxy, and is possibly being answered from somewhere in the Milky Way...

It is also fascinating observing some people use pretzel logic to argue that the garbage stories, characters, game mechanics and art found in modern games has nothing to do with the weirdos working on them who just happen to hate their core...
