ABOUT The Water Cooler (filled with whiskey)

Talking about Games, the Universe, and Everything

This little group is an experiment to find a place to talk about games, pop culture and everything that makes this bleak and dystopian world fun.

A kind of "private forum" where we keep can keep the riffraff out and celebrate gaming, not showing off how snide and sarcastic we can be.

Discussing (and dissecting) games can often be just as much fun as playing them, and this is a place to do it. Feel free to post, comment and share your thoughts and opinions.

(We are currently using the Groupchat as an makeshift IRC, it works surprisingly well)

Still kicking!
11 July, 2015 - Fenixp | 2 Comments

After a few hundred years in existence, The Water Cooler is still alive! Shambling with bits of flesh falling off, alive nonetheless. So, as a public announcement, I'm reminding you people that we exist and that we always welcome talk about videogames. So, if you feel like discussing something - give us a shot. We're extremely unlikely to bite.

Greetings!

After over four months in beta, it’s safe to say this little group has been an unforeseen success (not that our expectations were very high to begin with). We’re happy to have quite a few regulars and commenters already, but would like to hear from even more of you – if you haven’t already, come swing by the private group forum to discuss games, life, art and anything in between in a relaxed atmosphere where we’ll never judge you (but can always edit your posts to make you look silly).

For even happier leisure times, come visit the group chat, occasionally bursting with activity whenever anyone feels like it or when we’re trying to get some multiplayer action going. Just remember that wearing pants is strictly optional and you’ll fit right in.

No matter if you want to change the world one mind at a time, vent your frustrations or just hang out with a bunch of picky(and incredibly handsome) videogame enthusiasts, the group is here to help.

See you at the Cooler,
Your admins (the self-appointed Cool Guys)

(TLDR: This group has pretty decent forum, so come and join the fray)

"Interesting to see how it would work on Switch 2 especially with limited view distance."
It already works on Deck (-ish). I can see that with some added optimization it could be quite pretty and stable on Switch 2.

Cool idea. Interesting to see how it would work on Switch 2 especially with limited view distance, it feels like they always over do that with open world games even if it's kind of the point haha

Funny thing is, because it is a Play Anywhere title, you can customise your experience on PC and it brings that over on console as well lol. Fun way of stress testing the consoles. :D

Aaah, all right, that explains everything. I was wondering why would any other parts of the engine than the rendering need a rewrite.
Elenarie 23 Apr @ 12:35am 
Okay... this is not a remake in Unreal. It is using the renderer from Unreal 5 to make Oblivion look nicer. It is actually switching assets on the fly, it still runs Creation Engine underneath everything. And mods do work. There is just no official mod support like in Skyrim or Fallout or Starfield, but mods work like they did in the past.
