Runescape (osrs/rs2) in my opinion is one of the best games ever made.

It’s janky, the mechanics are all dated in a pseudo 90s ADND RPG style, the game econony is carefully balanced to accommodate this through RWT and botting. There is a lot to dissuade someone from enjoying it.

But the quests, coming from a passion project by a small team are some of the best quests I have ever played. Custom mechanics have been written for a lot of them (further adding to jank), the writing shows its pulpy influence and revels in its own absurdity.

I have yet to play another game where I have helped a pirate union-bust his zombie workers for his rum operation, worked for the fairy mafioso and helped Jean Luc Picard with his hot air balloon in the same day.

I had to stop playing at points because I was in tears from laughing so hard and without guides some of the quests are genuinely challenging and stimulating.

Always a brief respite from the modern gaming community to revisit osrs

I am sorry that using a computer falls beyond your comprehension.

You should endeavour to be better, dim one.

Me too, but I’m really feeling burritos hey.

Akshully, Cajun Holy Trinity is onion, peppers and celery

Mirepoix and Sofrito is carrots, onions and celery

If there’s internal file names why the fuck can’t I rename a file while it’s open in a program?

This operating system is garbage from a design perspective let alone its implementation

Rockstar should be added to this list.

This does actually help, if you still have bad sections you can reserve them in GRUB or Badblocks(?) on windows iirc

I mean not actually blowing on the ram but taking it out, cleaning contacts with isopropyl and reseating it has fix memory errors for me in the past.

I didn’t want to watch anymore of this shitstain than I had to

Especially for a company that specialises in cybersecurity, yikes.

I’ve been meaning to give it another go, I only found out recently that weapon durability was bugged this entire time

I found I was pretty much running bonfire to bonfire because of it and didn’t get that risk/reward for being able to explore areas of the map before resetting enemies.

I would recommend dual booting/switching to linux and running android via linux.

Memory is probably your biggest bottle neck here so setting up a bit of extra swap for Linux will be worthwhile until you can upgrade

Very cool, hopefully will iron out some of the issues I’ve been having with sunshine.

FWIW, I found dumping my screens EDID firmware and adding it to boot args + assigning to GPU port worked best for headless display set up

I would personally try to go for a BC-250 blade setup, less performance but roughly half the cost of a secondhand ps5 (in Aus at least) and still capable of modern gaming

I suppose that also depends on time invested tinkering and sourcing components for the BC-250 like an ssd, enclosure and psu

Sincere question, is this game worth pirating?

Would recommend just checking your motherboard/embedded controller has good linux support

I have a 9070XT but AM4 5700X. Been able to run everything comfortably at min 1440p 60 frames without AI upscaling, most games sit well above that, around 90-120fps.

Knew that the 9070XT would be bottlenecked, so I invested a bit of time and money into good thermals to finetune the CPU and RAM but haven’t bothered since everything runs well, just XMP + Auto OC settings currently and my benchmarks are well above the norm. So I think down the line if you wanted to squeeze some more performance you could invest in some better cooling but I doubt you’ll need it

One last thing for gaming on linux, caching a HDD with a second m.2 drive through LVM will let you play games directly off the HDD with massively reduced load times/texture loads.
