I'M MIGHTY ARTIO

Wait, I thought this was a Sparticus thing

Fuck it, I'm just going to message him

Hyped for SoM

What's the best method for recording gameplay on PC?

Was thinking of using Geforce Experience. That a good one?

It does the job in a basic way and has enough customisation to be great, but if you use things that don't call the GPU in Direct 3D, it won't work. Like not sure about Fire Pro, but I can't record Wrestling Revolution.

OBS and XSplit are great, just personal preference on either of those. They're designed to stream, but you can just point it to a window to record and do all the streaming overlays and shit if you want, then point it to do a local record to file instead of streaming to Twitch etc.

Her. Though I swear it used to be a guy... Says she's Scottish too, though that's irrelevant.

We must all get to the bottom of this Mighty Artio mystery.

#weareMighty

Drakul is another GT, I thing.

It's possible they are both her.

Yeah, not a whole lot of Scottish trans people on tpww. Has to be Drakul.

Titanic Zone. This level is really pissing me off.

The level in general, or the boss at the end? Because if it's the boss then yeah, it's fucking tough.

Ooh, Bethesda getting in on the GoT action.

Got the Telltale game but haven't gotten around to it yet. I wonder how this would play out.

I've already got some wild ideas in my head.

Take that Bethesda GOT news with a grain of salt. I've seen reports that say it isn't legit. I'll keep my hopes up though.

The Bethesda GOT news was reported back before E3, along with the sci-fi game, and Elder Scrolls 6 & 7. All of which turned out to be bullshit.

Nintendo killing Miiverse :(

C'mon Gamestop. Get with the program already.

I'm Mighty Artio. I changed it from my old one a year or two ago.
I got a few messages asking me so I came by to let you all know.

I wish I could use #WeAreMighty for something.

Don't Believe their lies!

Thanks for correcting Fignuts on the pronouns. It's cool if people slip up now and then, so long as it's not forever or intentional.

Also, friendly heads up. Never refer to a trans person as "it". It's considered pretty offensive to call anyone "it", trans or otherwise. Especially bad for trans people as it's used in a discriminatory way.
If you're ever unsure, just say "they" as it's neutral.

Btw I think you'll find being Scottish is always relevant.

No, that's not me, I just have the one GT. My old one was DrakulBites. I think the other Drakul is some Brazilian guy.

guys, Recore received a free dlc!!! God I love that game. Thinking of starting it from scratch. I do hope they improved on the load times though. Those were kind of insane.

Then who the hell is this Malley chick on my XBL??!

Oh my fucking god. In South Park the Fractured But Whole, when creating your character, the difficulty slider and skin colour selection are the same thing. The darker, the more difficult. Cartman actually explains "This doesn't actually affect combat difficulty, just every other aspect of your whole life"

Yeah, it seems pretty cool a game.

Super heroes are much more appealing than LotR type stuff. To me, anyway. A big reason I never picked up TSoT despite it looking pretty good.
I've got my eye on this.
