I'd guess anything older than an RPI 4 you're going to struggle with 1080 at 60 fps. Worth a shot though. When the stream box is the bottleneck you can actually render it higher on the PC and steam at the lower resolution and it can look better than you would expect.

We really should group them together for measurement purposes though, that would be hilarious.

Oh well, I guess I'm still chasing that high of following a sample through to Lone Wolf and Cub.

I just want to watch "The plan is programmed into every one of my thousand robots!"

I've always wondered where some of the samples on this album came from. Great tracks and energy the whole way through.

"And here at the Corporate Institutional Bank of Time, we find ourselves reflecting, finding out that in fact, we came back. We were always coming back..."

I think you make a good point but the pace is slower than necessary to achieve these artistic benefits. It's an overall detriment to the show when you keep squeezing a method that has no juice left. Emotional impact received, then sank in, then 20 more minutes on top? A bit too far I think. Narrative devices have diminishing returns, they pushed it so far that it looks like incompetence.

Please share the name of the 2D game from 2012, always looking for good recommendations

That il2cpp stuff gives me a big headache though. I guess you could consider that a kind of obfuscation.

Dang, I had never heard of this one. A shame but maybe some folks like me will hear about it for the first time and chip in. 6k out of pocket every month is wild, is that a realistic cost? I can't even imagine being in a place to consider shelling that out.

Hey just a shot in the dark here, but was it a puzzle book? My favorite puzzle book guy is from Slovenia.

Not even about the single player for me at all. I probably put a thousand hours into the multiplayer. It just kept giving you more the more you were willing to put into it. It was insanely deep and the mind games were unreal. Even better that it was still the days before SBMM, so you could really see the skill gap. You'd demolish newer people and then get absolutely dumpstered two games later, learn things you didn't know were possible.

And I can't stress enough that there was voice, so not only did a spy grabbing you make a bong that scared you enough to poop your pants if you were laser focused. They could say stuff to you, or worse whisper it to you and then break your neck.

Wow that's so interesting. I'm excited to try it, thanks for showing me some cool new ideas.
