    Guys watch Kannada movie Kantara, its fantastic... 

    I'm hearing great things about this.  It's running housefull in many theaters in blr, will try catching it next weekend.

     

    BTW, if you guys understand kannada, watch this movie called 'garuda gamana vrishabha vahana'.  One of the most brutal/realistic/neo noir crime movies I've seen.  It's slow and may not be everyone's cup of tea, but i found it to be quite an artistic/experimental movie like a Tarantino classic but set in coastal karnataka.  Also, the movie is partly in tulu, so you might need subs even if you understand kannada.

    It's a polaroid style camera i.e. it has an inbuilt printer, and uses the mini prints by Fuji. You can also get wide cameras or square cameras if you like that aspect ratio. 

    It also has 10 in built filters + 10 lens effects, giving quite a bit of leeway in how you want to "creatively" shoot stuff. Small and lightweight enough to pocketable, and personal enough that you can click and print a photo in less than 10 seconds. It also allows printing photos on your phone. 

     

    Just as an example, we used the first roll of 10 prints yesterday for these pics, which my daughter is putting in her scrapbook now, with some writings and drawings:

    You can get different style of films, write on the edges etc. 

     

    How it works:

     

     

    Film costs around 500-600 for a pack of 10. 

     

    Camera + 2 film rolls (20 pieces) are for 20k, but you can get Instax from 5k onwards too. 

    Thanks the details , let me check it out :)

  3. I'm in the middle of chapter 3 now i guess? Sam got order 27.  I thought the game would've become monotonous by now, but surprised that it's managed to keep me engaged so far.  Also, I think in chapter 3 the mules are a bigger nuisance than the bt's :-/. The story is still very intriguing though and is there main reason I'm pushing on.

     

    Also, this is nothing like any of the games I've played so far.... glad someone is making different kind of games and not just making the same old mass entertainment / sequels stuff.  So glad gamepass has this, else would've easily missed this one!

     

    BTW, are the private lockers in the game region locked ? As in, the stuff that Sam keeps stays only in that location ?

    brahmastra is a big big dud. so much money was wasted on the vfx & despite the good quality none of them standout or help the action sequences or film. not one single action setpiece will be remembered once the show's over or even go viral like RRR or 2.0.  its just random effects going all over with zero creativity. total waste of crores & crores of rs.

     

    & the whole movie itself is an  love story and has absolutely nothing to do with indian mythology or lore except using the word astra with everything. the bigger inspiration is from doctor strange, anime or even captain planet. and the ending is a joke, the greatest weapon to be ever written about gets defeated by the power of love in a few mins :rofl:. the astra weilding people themselves are shown like a bunch of clowns & get beaten up by random nobodies & any sadakchap can come and use  the astras once he gets his hands on it. 

     

    and bc how did the director and producer even approve the dialogues in this movie. from tapori munnabhai like dialogues at the start to absolute sh*t lines like "woh jo 3 triangle joint hoke pizza banta hai" (referring to the brahmastra). 

     

    a good concept that is ruined by the usual bollywood love story and lack of research. in the hands of a more visionary & capable directors like Rajamouli or Shankar this could have been the start of something exciting for Indian cinema but after this I'll be very surprised if part 2 of this movie ( title revealed at the end) goes into full production. 

    I also read in reviews that is too long a movie ? I think it'll recover most of its costs from the weekend collection and from ott/tv rights.  Read somewhere that it's releasing in some ~9000 screens worldwide :O

  5. Ok, looks like now I'm slowly catching the rhythm of the game, still in chapter 2, but able to navigate around the terrain on the bike, escaped the mules and so on.  Also after i discovered that Sam can offload his load on back to the bike, it's been quite a relief :D

    Took me about 55 hrs and I didn't do any side quests or much of building, except zip lines.

    Woah that's big.  I guess cut scenes would be like 10+ hours in that ?

    Roads involve investing a lot of Metals, Chiral Crystals and Ceramics which have a lot of weight. I always take delivery items + 2 ladders + 1 anchor + 2-3 container repair spray and all of these take enough weight already. I carry a PCC to install a generator whenever I need one to charge bike. 

     

     

    Even bridges, i took a pcc and went in that bike, tried building a bridge across a river to conserve charge, only to find out that the bridge couldn't be completed due to lack of metals.  

     

    This seems quite a long game, how long does it take to finish ?

  8. I'm still in chapter 2/order 8 i think.  The inventory system is really bad.  I failed an order because i forgot to press some button after putting that chiral print interface into my inventory.  I thought all was well, went back only to find it was not added and had to redo the order :-/

     

    It's good game to chill out though, except when Sam is going thru bt areas, those sections suck.

     

    BTW, found a vehicle in one of the distribution centers, but it says it's not charged, where to charge it ?

  9. I bought it on ps4 and yet to complete this.  The first game was outstanding and loved it, but gave up on this after a couple of hours as i felt the game was too demanding in terms of attention and focus. Also the mood was too depressing. Maybe I'll pick this up over a long weekend some day, when I've sufficient time, but from what i played this didn't feel like a game you could play over a quick break.

    Started playing the GP version of this game, it's very wierd, is there any combat?

    Also wtf was that repatriation cutscene o_O

     

    In in the second chapter now and yeah the game is indeed weird, but i guess that's one of its USPs.  I'm playing it to see how the story unfolds.... I might love it or hate it by the end, but I've a feeling it's gonna be a unique experience going by the gameplay so far.  I mean, the game literally is a series of fetch quests and the one thing which one would often skip in a open world game (traveling long distances), via fast travel or something, is the core gameplay here .... Kojima is a risk taker, i don't think any other dev would've even greenlighted this !!

    and guess what..... this is that movie poster :rofl:

    and you are watching it... 

    Shhh, I'm at the climax fight now, where the hero fight off against a bunch of henchmen only to realise they were just 3D holograms/illusions :rofl:

  12. So, watching this movie called heropanti2 , here's a snippet - so the hero, who's a hacker kills one of the villains by hacking his pacemaker and connecting it to a video game (one of those mortal Kombat types), and gifts it to the villains' family.  So the family is busy playing the game and everytime the in game charcter punches/kicks the other one, the villains heart gets affected and finally the villain dies in real life when the family wins the level in that game!

     

     

    I'm speechless....?

    There are talks about the 7xxx series being backwards compatible on X570 chipsets at least. So all may not be lost. This is the first time AMD is going for a different socket in years, so it is understandable 
     

     

    The supposed power draw is also much higher. Seems like 1000W PSUs will become the norm with high end PCs

    The problem with 1000w PSUs, especially in India is the availability of ups to be able to hold off during a power cut.  Most pc ups won't hold off more than 650-750w power for even few mins required for the graceful shutdown.

    I moved to a new house and completely revamped the game room compared to the previous one I posted last year! I've come a long way since I started this thread 5 years ago. It's been a fun journey. Met lots of people along the way.

     

    I think this is my final setup. No energy to go beyond this. Gaming on a 120" screen with 5.1 speakers is really something else.

     

    The room is closed with no windows. Proper man cave :D

    More close up pics of everything in the following link (contains some old pics from before the projector was setup): https://imgur.com/a/UBZWZsu

    All that setup for playing ninty games ? ??

     

    Just kidding, amazing collection and very good setup ?.  BTW, don't you face any lag while playing games with the projector ?

  15. So, downloaded this from pc gamepass and played briefly.  Not really my type of game, but decided to give it a try.  The gfx looks insane on pc.

     

    Good/intriguing start, anything else to know before i go further ? I know this has been called the walking sim/cargo delivery sim etc, anything i can do to make it intresting ? Or is the whole game about walking from point a to point b ?

  16. House of the dragon was good, except for some shockingly graphic scenes, which i couldn't watch and had to fast fwd them.  IMO, just like it's predecessor - GoT, it's not a family watch kind of show.

     

    But, neither wheel of time nor witcher has the kind of vibes this show has.  HBO seems to have figured out the craft of making fantasy shows like how Marvel does superheroes !

    Get a refund. Skillup straight up destroyed the game in his review.

    Thanks, i didn't know this, will try.  From the reviews, it looks like a game from the x360 era.

    Games like Horizon rewards exploration. If you rush through it, you will eventually find it tough. I played like an explorer, cleared every damn icon from the map before moving to the next area or story mission. By the last half of the game, I was OP. Only challenge i found was in the final boss fight. A tip, keep yourself well stocked with potions and bombs before you head on to that fight. I spent like an hour and died like a dozen times with main boss since I did not have enough potions. 

    I'm exploring enough.  I'm still at the initial sections of the main quest as most of my time is spent in side activities.  Only reason i played the dying lands quest is i didn't want to be too op for the quest and i was done with most side activities in the areas opened up until then !

     

    Also, being too op kinda takes the fun out of the quest.  I always try to play the quests at the recommended levels.
