At the start of my career I was too embarrassed to even put VNs on my resume, and I'm glad it's grown to be its own genre over the last decade, even though I don't really work in them anymore.

I realize this is probably a very hyperspecific experience, but I grew up through a period before visual novels were considered "real videogames" and it's clearly its own genre in "real videogame" land now.

I'm always down for saving money on pointless brand stuff but the aliexpress visors are cheap for a reason

softmode aka europa yuu aka doomfest on twitter @softmode.bsky.social · 30/03/2026

you can tell who's had legit visors for their helmets because the guys buying knockoffs always complain about the mirrored coating wearing off lol (at least for shoei and Arai, I can't say for other helmet brands)

that game lets you boost and explode into *other people*

softmode aka europa yuu aka doomfest on twitter @softmode.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

I need to channel whatever drugs the motorstorm (ps3) devs were on when they decided your car has unlimited boost, but if you boost too much you just explode into mahou arms somehow

anyway, mahou arms doesn't even support lumen or dlss and i'm on a 2080 because i'm poor so it should hit 60fps on most midrange machines at 1440p

0130

softmode aka europa yuu aka doomfest on twitter @softmode.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

i would argue requiring DLSS to hit your fps targets pretty much defines the technology as being poorly optimized

000

softmode aka europa yuu aka doomfest on twitter @softmode.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

i'm mostly talking about the popular ones reliant on vendor specific hardware, i know 'software' path tracing is a thing and obviously that will run as well as you optimize it but stuff like lumen and RE path tracing seems to run like shit

010

softmode aka europa yuu aka doomfest on twitter @softmode.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

that's not it the path traced games can't even hit consistent 60 at 2k

100

softmode aka europa yuu aka doomfest on twitter @softmode.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

nah it was extremely CPU bound in an era where most CPUs were dualcore at best, and CPU settings don't scale nearly as well as GPU settings do due to game threads requiring serialized logic for the most part. my athlon 64 or whatever was definitely struggling

200

softmode aka europa yuu aka doomfest on twitter @softmode.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

like crysis ran like shit when it came out but after about 2-3 years or so most people could run it (as far as I can remember, it's been literal decades) on high end systems, but path tracing still runs really poorly...

260

softmode aka europa yuu aka doomfest on twitter @softmode.bsky.social · 06/03/2026

you know, it's been over 6 years since path traced lighting became a thing and... it still kinda runs like shit on most games. Is anyone even talking about how this might have been a failed experiment?
