What’s the best way to preserve data?

Now correct me if I’m wrong i heard SSDs and even things like sd cards store data by trapping electrons, and if you don’t use it for too long those electrons will eventually escape and corrupt your data unless you plug it in every so often so they can restore themselves

Hard drive has magnets apparently which holds the data for much longer but are more prone to fail when under use because of the moving parts

So the DLCs in this game are like sequels?

Because the dlc that just came out is called breaking NEO and the second BT game in Japan was sparkling NEO

So is it safe to say the next DLC that comes out will be full of content like BT3?

I mean the original BT game was sparkling and this new one is sparkling Zero kinda like a clean start to the series

Despite its flaws I really like this game

This is essentially the only way I’ve experienced the full dragon ball Z story even though as a kid I’ve watched a couple episodes and movies out of order. And it just had me hooked the whole way through, of course some moments do feel boring but once you hit the climax and are doing those battles it just feels so good.

It’s like a playable anime, I will eventually also watch the full DBZ anime to see how it compares but in my opinion the game sure did a good job in having me invested in the story, still the overall most complete dbz game I’ve played so far even though the combat could be better it gets the job done.

Time Machine in this game could’ve been so much better

It’s one of my main gripes since the game is so long it would be a cool way to just be able to go back and replay from the point you feel like

If they added an option to level scale enemies and also to not take you out after the end of the quest instead they could have some teleport areas kinda like they do in the DLCs but instead of going back to the main game you go back to the future

What’s the point of replaying a boss from the first chapter if you’re gonna 1 shot him it could’ve been kinda like a new game plus where you can just start from wherever you want and play for as far as you want without having to keep selecting the next mission every time

What I dislike about r/IncelTear the most aren’t even the women

It’s more so the men who orbit them the so called “incels in denial”

Because this only shows to me why hypergamy exists in the first place, men are so desperate for female attention they will always be front line on this shit either way. You would never see a woman in some femcel hate forum.

As for the takes there I feel like it’s just rage bait feminism as it is today an ideology that holds women as the moral standard, they are in a perpetual us vs them mindset which is why modern day feminism is essentially useless there is no more rights to fight for if anything in most western countries women have it miles better than men in education, career etc. they are just generalising rage bait incel posts acting like this is some dangerous mindset when the guy who posted that slop was probably just typing shit in a computer for notoriety.

Would a port of dragon quest 8 be possible on vita?

So apparently there are people trying to turn the android version of the game into a full PC port with audio and everything

Now based on other ports I saw for the vita this is realistic right?

Android version hasn’t been ported to the vita due to being vertical and relying on touch controls but if they manage to get that on PC at full screen with the voices like ps2 it would be the perfect vita port.

I hate how they implement diversity in most games

Specifically in medieval fantasy games. I think the Elder scrolls does it in the best way tbh since all the human races there have a history and region they originated from and so do the non human elven and cat races

But then I play something like demon souls remake and it’s just a modern Hollywood cast everyone just for that baby ink approval 😂

I’m not even white or anything so it’s not that I don’t like to see other races in games but cmon guys let’s use our brain and be a bit more creative

Terms and services are so dumb

You buy a whole ass console or game then they put a whole text in front of your eyes after you already made the purchase and start the console/ game

Yet you have no right to deny the terms of service if you actually wanna play the damn thing

So they can do whatever they want anyway. If it wasn’t for the EU laws this would probably be even worse globally what they can get away with

Why does gravity rush 2 look so low res on ps5?

I actually had a ps4 slim for gravity rush an bloodborne since I’m mostly a pc player

But with the whole GTA6 thing I got a ps5 recently and all ps4 games look super sharp besides gravity rush even tho I read the ps4 pro version is supposedly in 4k it looks no different from my original ps4 version is there a setting I didn’t flick?

Anyone know what songs exactly were cut from the gta sa radio in the ps4 version?

So I have the non definitive edition ps2 classics version which is pretty rare nowadays since it was delisted luckily i managed to grab San Andreas before they removed it from psn.

I was wondering how many songs got cut out since i heard this version is identical to the PS2 release but features less songs

Is it as many as the definitive edition or are there still tracks here that aren’t in the definitive edition?

It’s sad that the final part of final fantasy 7 remake won’t be fully on the disc

I own the 2 games remake and rebirth and square enix have always released complete disc offline installs to all their physical games and I was hoping since it’s coming out in 2027 and Sony will only discontinue discs in 2028 this game was safe but no they pulled a Call of Duty 300mb on the disc and the actual game download needs a connection to be installed

Dragon Quest XI is yet another reason physical media is important.

So for those who don’t know there was a “definitive edition released” the reason I won’t say it’s truly definitive is it’s a port of the graphically downgraded switch version.

I bought both and i prefer the original due to the better visuals that are more important to me than the filler in the definitive edition only problem is they delisted it from PSN so the only way to play it on ps5 is if you have the disc of the game

I have it but since the PS6 will come out without a disc drive it’ll be essentially unplayable from that point on unless someone bought it before they delisted it on psn.

Now you see what I mean? Companies can release another version and remove the previous ones despite many people potentially wanting to purchase it over the “Definitive Edition”

Am I the only one who prefers the original DQ 11 over the Definitive edition?

For context I do in fact have both versions

Call me a graphics fanboy but they look way too good on the OG. Not to mention i didn’t enjoy the filler they added in DQ11 DE

Orchestrated soundtrack is the only aspect that is actually objectively better in DE but even tho this game is my favourite the music has always been mid. It’s not like DQ8 the soundtrack in that game is a masterpiece that should not be tempered with but I feel like when playing DQ11 I always go for the original version

Also another thing that bothers me are the characters following you, I know it’s cool to see the party behind you but in my experience Sylvando is too damn tall, don’t get me wrong I love him to death but while I’m running around trying to sight see especially when he has that tail costume it just blocks 90% of the screen.

If GTA6 doesn’t release on disc the 1.0 version will be lost media

Might seem kinda meaningless but many times checking out an unpatched version of a game can be very interesting.

I for one only replay rdr2 on disc unpatched because later updates changed things like dead eye reload speed, tweaked lighting and literally changed John marstons face textures and bone structure to resemble Arthur.

lol in gta 6 case many songs will inevitably get removed from the game with license loss and since the game won’t come out on pc at launch the 1.0 version won’t be copied not possible on console, so it might literally be lost media in the future
