PC Gaming Era | July 2018 - Where the Duffs are Whales and the Slashes are Grizzlies

The trailer contains both:
1) Outsider who knows nothing about the current culture, trends, economic problems, or laws should be our new monolithic ruler!
2) He who is able to physically defeat our ruler should be our new monolithic ruler!
How do these magnificent and technologically advanced cultures have such moronic political systems?
Maybe it's a metaphor.
Maybe the whole point of the "ruler" is just to act as their one-man army and protect the people from danger. The actual ruling is done, say, via direct democracy, no parliament or anything needed.
Then it's totally logically to get the strongest person for the job, no matter what he knows about the culture. I guess the question of loyalty is important, like how are they gonna make sure he doesn't just break into their treasury and go his merry way?
I've been out of the PC gaming scene for a while now due to my 10-year old PC not holding up, but since it's also at its last-legs, I'm thinking of refreshing it.
If I have a budget of around $800-$1000, give or take - is Ryzen 2600/1070Ti a good get?

Don't suppose you have a link for 2.3.1 version? On site its just the 2.3 version but having it not pause minimised apps was handy from 2.3.1
Reading on a different forum that MS has discontinued fullscreen exclusive mode in Windows 10 and has removed it, where the current (said to be inconsistent) implementation is an emulation.
Anyone had experience with fullscreen exclusive issues on Windows 10? I'm curious how this affects gaming.

"Benevolent God"
Yeah, it might not be the best idea to have the strongest singular identity hold all the power. What is to stop them from enacting their social policy as well? There's a reason systems of multiplicity and systems of tension have worked their way out for the most progressive political structures.
EDIT: Theoretically, Aquaman wouldn't be exceptionally stronger than the next-most-powerful Atlantean. It's the same issue with Black Panther. The two theoretically strongest dudes fight it out and the best singular combatant wins and gets to rule the land. They then give them even more power with a magical macguffin, but nothing crazy powerful. So it's not like Superman, who is vastly more powerful than the people he protects, it's just the best MMA fighter in the land who gets to run the country. Seems like a bad idea.

I don't have any experience with it myself (maybe the stuttering isn't bad enough for me to notice it?), but a couple of posts in the "PC Questions That Don't Really Deserve Their Own Thread" thread elaborate a little:
I will check if I have installer somewhere when I get to my PC.
man, even WoW is anime as fuck now
Anime corrupts everything!
These recent in-engine cutscenes they have going on sorta-kinda make me wish they would do a Darksiders-esque game tho, they have the same chunky style of artstyle (or, rather, Darksiders has it also I should say). it works well for that sort of game (worked well for Amalur aswell for example)

Knurek to the rescue :D I didn't have saved that version. But it sucks that there is no official community for Gameplay Time Tracker so we can report issues like converting database in 3.0.
Bah, Trails in the Sky doesn't seem to survive sleep mode - crashes outright both in DX8 and DX9 modes after waking from sleep.
Anyone with a laptop has experience with debugging issues like that? Or is it generally 'if it works, great, if not, there's nothing you can do about it'?

Since the start of the year i am looking to replace my MB, CPU and RAM and it is kinda depressing watching those prices. 8700K is still around 390$ here, mid-high range MB like ASUS Prime Z370-A is 210$ and then biggest disappointment is RAM, 16GB DDR4 above 3000MHz is at minimum same price za MB 210$. So in total we are talking about 800+$ for those 3 components. I mean i have money for that but i am not sure that i am ready to spent that kind of money, even though those components will last me for at least 4 years (i am still rocking my 2600K that i bought like year after release). But i am kinda getting tired of waiting for those prices to go down.
these thrash sections are kind of weird. i think the game was getting stale at this point so it's a good way to keep things fresh but also knowing you don't get to play as kirin makes it feel kind of weird since she's one of the "main three" and all. like, the moment i noticed that i went like "i bet this thrash thing was a kickstarter stretch goal or something", and i didn't even know the game was on kickstarter. it's kind of something i've noticed in a few kickstarter games, that maybe you reach certain portions of the game that feel a bit tacked on only to later on find out it was a stretch goal
it's not bad tho, and the game needed a twist at some point
also i probably should spend more time in the practice arena since i feel like the time pressure makes the duels a bit too stressful (compared to the other activities like the puzzles that are more relaxed) and maybe i just want to spend a long time making a dish as delicious as it can be
It was an average game, but I somewhat enjoyed playing it. But I highly doubt it would run decently on a low-end laptop, I played it on release and this game was very demanding, I was struggling to get decent performance on my old GTX 770 4gb with just 1080p resolution.
If you're not looking into content creation, an i5 chip is better.
Concerning Telltale games and follow up seasons
If i clock Batman season 1 for example and have my completed save with my choices uploaded to Steam Cloud and the Telltale account can i go ahead and delete the game and when i purchase Batman Season 2 will my choices get pulled down from the clould? or will Season 2 go to to my local save on my harddrive only?
edit: just realised my Wolf Among Us and Walking Dead Season 2 saves are gone :(

Downloading Fallout: New Vegas. Haven't really played it at all, rented the Xbox version from a friends, barely played it. Hopefully it holds up well.
Wait? When did Faeria stop being f2p? And what does it mean for us who already have the game in our library due to we played it when it was f2p?

Just want to double check...
I plan on getting a PC (i7 8700k, GTX1080, overclocked, liquid cooling, 16gb ram, etc). In terms of PSU as I'm a bit clueless on that, I've been told to go for a platinum rating 750W by a acquaintance, but how important is it? Could I get away with a lower rating to trim down elsewhere? The PSU recommended is a 650+ 80Plus.

Any decent 650W PSU will suffice. The EVGA G3 is part of the recommended high-end builds in the INANPC thread, but there's also the slightly cheaper GQ variant if you're looking to lower the cost as much as reasonably possible. I wouldn't buy a 1080 at this juncture, though, as the 1170 and 1180 are rumoured to launch late next month/early September.
Thanks for the answer. Another dumb question (inexperienced with this sort of stuff), is it safe to skimp out on the GPU and use my old one (550ti) until the 1180 comes out and swap it over on a overclocked CPU?
Absolutely. You just won't be able to use the latest drivers as Nvidia dropped support for Fermi-based cards back in May. You'll have to make do with these ones.
Google's heuristics marked it down as a virus for some reason. Want me to reup somewhere, or do you prefer to keep it safe?

I have a Ryzen/nVidia combo and I love it.
Yeah, but Ryzen chips/mobos are cheaper, they come with a cooler (so more savings), and Ryzen 2 is supported in the same board, so the upgrade path is cheaper and easier.
