    Our universe

    Big rip cyclic cosmology A big rip could lead to a new big bang opening up the door for big rip cyclic cosmology. This could allow for laws of physics to change with each new universe resulting in the universe sometimes after a big rip having laws of physics that actually allow for life...

    Our universe

    The big rip model If dark energy grows stronger over time that might at least in part explain the Hubble tension but there are also problems. For one it's unclear if there is even any particularly great underlying theoretical explanation for phantom dark energy...

    Our universe

    The Hubble tension The value of H0 predicted from the cosmological background radiation very much does not agree with what we are observing today. This 'problem' has persisted for years and has only gotten more significant over time. https://arxiv.org/pdf/2302.05709.pdf...

    Our universe

    The Boltzmann brain problem One perhaps controversial tool to rule out some universes is universes where boltzmann brains over time dominate when it comes to consciouss enteties. This should rule out the scenario of eternal exponential expansion. https://arxiv.org/pdf/0802.0233.pdf

    Our universe

    Despite James webb and other very impressive advances in technology the ultimate fate of our universe remain up in the air. Currently the mainstream ΛCDM model suffer from severe problems with no clear replacement in sight. Will our universe end via heath death, big rip or big crunch? Will it...

    gta6 system requirments

    This very much depends on what framerate you are targeting and that they target on the consoles. PS5: 60fps 3700x: 84fps 5700x: 97fps 13700k: 135fps Note that lowering graphics settings is often useless when you are CPU bound, some settings (such as raytracing) can make the game more demanding...

    Best games were you play as a female

    Other 3D games Examples of games where you can only play as a female character that i didn't like are tales or arise (bad gameplay) and tower of fantasy (boring gameplay and bad graphics). I did like the first crysis, firetwatch and observer: system redux but these games are all first person...

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    The big issue with most trailers A lot of the trailers featured didn't even show gameplay or they showed very little. Instead the focus was in-game cutscenes which doesn't tell you how good the game actually is. So what's even the point in watching that nonsense? sure you might get hyped but...

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    How much of it is ads? Only 15.2% of the time (202 minutes total) was spent for actual awards. The rest was "world premiers" and loads of shitty ads. https://nordic.ign.com/news/76483/the-game-awards-criticized-for-giving-winners-little-time-to-speak-amid-silence-on-industry-layoffs I also...

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    The public vote was only 10%, 90% was the corporate jury While this itself doesn't have to be bad the issue is that the jury is filled with people who do not value games with great gameplay. This is why third person narrative driven games win almost all of the awards shutting out games that are...

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    Developers who won awards only got 30 seconds (or less) to speak And often they got even less time or no attention at all. https://www.inverse.com/gaming/game-awards-2023-fail-rushed-speeches Instead loads of time were focused on ads and having overrated actors waste peoples time. The...

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    Forza motorsports didn't deserve any award It has awful userscores on steam so clearly it isn't a particularly great game. It very much did not deserve any award for best sports/racing game. Recent Reviews: 39% All reviews: 51% SteamDB: 39.42% I don't know if it deserved award for "best...

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    Why was destiny 2 and diablo 4 nominated for "best community support" ? Sure they didn't win (baldur's gate 3 took that) but why were they nominated in the first place? Diablo 4 and destiny 2 are both failing as they are being filled with predatory monetization.

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    I don't really have much time to spend trying games and it's rare for me to come across of something worthy of an award in the first place. There are also some genres that i avoid, i never even tried Baldur's gate 3 since i avoid that category (single player strategy games) completely.

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    Spiderman 2 got nominated 8 times but won 0 awards This is actually funny and arguably it didn't really deserve any award in the first place. A general issue with these sony games is that while they do deliver quality the excellence simply isn't there. The game award format also favor...

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    Microsoft won 3 awards but 0 for starfield Starfield didn't even deserve the nomination for the "best RPG" category, arguably doesn't quality in said category and the game is trash anyway. https://vintologi.com/threads/ongoing-starfield-trainwreck.1382/ None of the awards they won really...

    I watched the game awards 2023 so you don't have to

    First off as we already knew the categories are idiotic. 31 categories but no awards specifically for great gameplay or great controls. Instead the game awards is very focused on things like cisuals, voice actor performance, cutscenes, etc. And of course it's pack full of advertisements...
