I never force myself. If it sucks, I’ll ditch it asap. But just because i would love the old combat, i also know it will never ever come back like this. I can also enjoy a more action-oriented combat. I just don’t prefer it when given the choice 😊

Andromeda was ok in that regard. I will give it a shot in some many months when all is patched out and there may even be some mods (oh yes please)

Thanks for the details, but that sounds… Generic. I really hoped for it to have them pimping up the programmable combat. But i see why that might not be as commercially successful as it’s probably more niche.
I’ll try that one with a different expectation then. Thanks again.

Is the combat like in DA1? With pause and “programmable” companions? I don’t watch/read reviews et al, hence the question 😁
- Comment on 'It even breaks my heart a bit': Denuvo pushes back on its haters, says Steam forums are a 'very toxic, very hostile environment' 4 weeks ago:
The steam-forums are often toxic. But denuvo also is and every hate justified. It does absolutely nothing good for the honest consumer. Quite the contrary.

Oooh the codec lol. Dunno if the shield did or do use this one. Never really cared as i really only use one app, and it transcodes on server if need be.

Weird, considering you’re also europe. Though with firesticks i would really expect that.
Av1 means your tv’s 1st external input? If it’s hdmi then yes. There are cheaper boxes out there, but if you stream legally those might be troublesome (netflix), the shield ain’t.
But overall: “smart” - tvs suck big hairy, sweaty monkey-balls. The digital future ain’t a bright one for the critical thinkers and simple ad-haters

Can’t tell for android-tv, my last one was the nvidia shield and i don’t recall any stupid “discover” tab there. Just the apps i want. Or maybe by default and i disabled them… Would be totally pissed if I had to live with them. Especially because i only need one app on a tv.
On google-tv (android-tv is dead) i can change the launcher and hence those forced tabs aren’t an issue. That’s why i sorted the tvs by OS. Wouldn’t touch samsung & co.
If there was no other way, I’d attach a shield to it and forget about the “smart” of my tv. Maybe even a chromecast-shitstick.
- Comment on Imperfect, Linux-powered, DIY smart TV is the embodiment of ad fatigue 3 months ago:
Maybe a regional thing? They do the maximum they’re allowed by law.
Also i use another launcher to replace the google one. Also i have a google-tv not android-tv. Though it wasn’t different on my shield or other tvs.
Also i use pihole. So even if there might’ve been an ad someplace, i wouldn’t have seen it anyway 😁
If there was one single ad anywhere i would return this shit and indeed built my own. With blackjack and hookers. And linux.

Hm. I install emby on my “smart”-tv and done. No ads ever, no nothing. Just everything i ever want to see. Type a name, wait a minute, watch.

Oh right. I forgot about that simple solution.
- Comment on The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition - Creations Update Patch Notes 11 months ago:
You can’t. Unless you go offline (for as long as you play it)
Best thing to do is download it elsewhere (he said eye-patchedly). You already have the license, screw them.
- Comment on Steam Workshop Has added support for paid mods 11 months ago:
Yeah great /s
I prefer donations to the modders. Not paying 30% of it to steam for doing… Nothing much. And also being forced to pay for a mod.
Modding made so many mediocre games fantastic. The community is always a blast. People doing it for the “fame” or just for fun, and also getting occasional donations as a heartfelt “thank you” as a cherry on top.
I can’t imagine paid mods to do anything good for the scene. When does money ever…
