Seems to math to me? 2002 to 2008 is 6 years, 2008 to 2020 is 12 years, 2020 to 2025 is 5 years

Joystick controls sound fun for like bumper cars

Keeb goes hard ngl

Shoes are pretty easy to guesstimate for US sizes if you have average feet (width being the biggest reason this fails). Men size is basically women size plus 1.5. This doesn’t work if you have a large foot size though, since women’s dont go up to the same max as men’s

Clothes are 100% a pain. Especially online shopping

Hmm might just be an unlucky design. Either that or the fan motor is squeaking from lack of lubricant.

You should check the thermal pads/paste

My gpu used to overheat and turn my pc off until I opened it and realized the paste was legit hardened clay

Gave it a cleaning and replaced all the paste and pads and it works pretty nice now

Depth of field and chromatic aberration are pretty cool if done right.

Depth of field is a really important framing tool for photography and film. The same applies to games in that sense. If you have cinematics/cutscenes in your games, they prob utilize depth of field in some sense. Action and dialogue scenes usually emphasize the characters, in which a narrow depth of field can be used to put focus towards just the characters. Meanwhile things like discovering a new region puts emphasis on the landscape, meaning they can use a large depth of field (no background blur essentially)

Chromatic aberration is cool if done right. It makes a little bit of an out of place feel to things, which makes sense in certain games and not so much in others. Signalis and dredge are a few games which chromatic aberration adds to the artstyle imo. Though obviously if it hurts your eyes then it still plays just as fine without it on.

The text recognition part afaik was used to help develop tools to transcribe/digitize scanned books which was neat.
