Using Edge as well.

UBlock Origin on Edge worked fine on me, are you using a different one?

EDIT: If you also crash without adblock, maybe clear cache, youtube cookies, etc?

Yeah, I’m using Ublock too. I cleared the cache and will test with the next stream I watch.

It is nothing related to your browser setup, browser cookies, browser cache, adblockers. It has nothing to do with an adblocker or not. YT will just crash.

YouTube is just absolutely horrible from a stability standpoint for the past 7 months.

Yes, I have the same experience. YT sucks nowadays.

Well, either way I have 2 streams now to watch lol. Both of them started streaming 6 minutes apart.

56 ads blocked between them by Ublock, in less than 5 minutes.

This game has no right being this fun, and especially addictive. Not only during game time I clean shit, during real life as well. Could this be my calling? :joy:

There’s just something satisfying about how you clean off all the dirt and other shit and of course that sound when you fully clean something really does it, haha.

When I have finished the FF7 content I might buy the paid content packs too. Maybe try to find a good deal for the game plus all content packs. Powerwash Simulator 2 is a day one for me. Hopefully we get a release date at Gamescom.

Does anyone know why fallen feathers isn’t play anywhere anymore ? The play anywhere badge isn’t showing up anymore

This and the next Elder Scrolls are the only two games I’m actually interested in right now. :smile:

I think most play anywhere games don’t have it, but if it isn’t likely for some double dipping.

If it has hall effects stucjs I’m going to be very tempted to buy it.

Huh, interesting.

The wait for that Elite like controller by them continues, the one that’s fully wireless but this one is coming out? Hopefully they get that stuff sorted for the Elite like controller too, I’m waiting for that.

Ok, so a bit of a weird situation.

This is a welcome surprise.

This is where I don’t get the Ubisoft hate, and where people seem to want them to go bankrupt or be bought by one of the huge players like Tencent or Netease.

Yes there was some horrible management stuff reported there, but overall they seem to be a publisher that employs a lot of people and doesn’t seem to do massive layoffs like the others (probably in part due to being French where it’s harder to do) and they do seem to support their games well even years after release - like the above.

They also are going to do offline modes for The Crew 2 and retrospectively into The Crew 1 after the backlash - let’s face it, Take Two would have laughed and told the petitioners to go buy GTA5 again.

Yes there’s the bad management shit and the crap around NFTs and other trends - but many publishers jump on trends yet it’s always Ubi that’s the easy punchbag.

It seems it’s cool to hate on them because they do large, open-world RPG games that some deem uncool / too large / not Souls-like enough - but many other players, including me, love them (just finishing Shadows with 90 hours in it, did 100+ hours in Odyssey and have completed pretty much every modern AC game).

It does strike me that some of the more customer-friendly publishers (Xbox, Ubisoft) get slammed by ā€œinfluencersā€ and the gaming media, yet ones who treat consumers like piggy banks to be squeezed until they get second jobs to pay for their shit get treated like gods (Sony, Take Two)…

There are definitely issues at Ubisoft, but in regards to their treatment of gamers overall, I’d agree. Let’s not forget, like Xbox, they updated most of their last gen offerings for current-gen consoles for free. While Take 2, Sony, and Nintendo are nickel and diming people for the most minor of ā€œremastersā€ while others are giving them away for free, you know we live in a fucked-up timeline.

Yeah and they’ve just announced a huge update coming for the Avatar game, bringing 3rd persone mode and NG+ later this year.

That’s one of the few gaming giant doing this. They are supporting their games the longest, but of course, as big as they are, the corpo speak doesn’t translate well for people…

Ubisoft have their problems, like all big corporations have, but at least they make products of good value and you can expect their franchises to be supported for a long long time. Even Prince of Persia The Lost Crown had new content and updates.

The drama around them is always a bit overblown I always felt.
