I kid you not: the best circus of the year just arrived!
Code Violet, the game about hot lady fighting dinosaurs got 40% on Metacritic. And the studio behind it rushed to complain that WE MADE IT FOR PLAYERS, NOT CRITICS.
Players also hated it, 2.9 out of 5 on PS Store. Which is very low for a platform (where people rarely leave negative feedback). The legendary Life of Black Tiger has 3.4/5.
But that alone would be an average circus, since this time TeamKill founders promised to never release the game on PC... because they hate mods and scared... that players will sexualize the character. In a game where developers ALREADY FUCKING DID IT.

YouTube team decided that banning 12 million people in a few months and generally ruining search was not bad enough. So a few days ago they removed search by date from the UI!

So, I finished Dead Island 2 (both the main game, Haus DLC, and most of the SOLA, but left it for later). It's a memorable game, not a circus, as many were saying — it has humor and dorky moments, but most of it is indeed about drama and survival.
There were no bugs during my playtime, just very uneven performance on fast mouse movement. And in this game fast mouse movement IS 90% of the game. And then you have co-op — generally nice, but with 2 people you have a bit of network lag and with 3 people it turns into a teleportation show.
The main concept is from "that era" with no open world and instead you have linked hubs, each with their respective quests and features. So eventually it will be very noticeable that you've been there already for the third time during the sidequest. Youngblood was very similar in this regard, but it got annoying in like a 3 hours.
Get only the Ultimate Edition and only on sale (which ends up in 22 hours). DLCs are amazing and add up a lot to the main game.

Fun fact: I played this game back in 2014 and it was oddly close to the final product that has been released a fuckin decade later!
(Not my video, but still)
Also, it wasn't that laggy during my try as it is on the video. Just a small map with several weapons and respawning waves of zombies. But even the visuals were fairly close, not a generational leap.

Good news, everyone!
Apparently, Arc Raiders fans discovered a new performance issue in Unreal Engine: if your mouse is modern, it can run at 500, 1000, or even 2000Hz (polling rate). The input system of Unreal Engine (and some other apps and engines) go nuts if your mouse is not 250Hz. At 500+ it does some odd compensation and it makes the input inconsistent.
This adds up to extra computation of camera culling, LOD, and lighting that the engine must show and hide when you look around. And it feels as stuttering.
For some mice the setting can be found in apps, for some it's literally a button underneath. You need faster rate for competitive multiplayer, but almost no engine can really work with 2000Hz, for example. Unreal sets no limiter on the input and every USB command make it stop to receive it and review. Now imagine it has 2000 of them when the CPU is already overloaded.
