"Terrence Miller loves card games. Long before he took second in the Dreamhack Austin Hearthstone tournament earlier this year, he competed in games like Yu-Gi-Oh and the Pokemon TCG. Unfortunately, many people know his name because he got showered with racist Twitch chat abuse during Dreamhack Austin earlier this year. Last weekend, it happened again."
The Persona / Shin Megami Tensei cosplay gathering allowed fans of the acclaimed JRPG series to meet up during FanimeCon 2024.
Frame generation technology has arrived on consoles, amplifying frame-rates and potentially transforming experiences.
adds between 8.3-15.3 milliseconds of latency on the game they tested, - no thanks
Impressive results... sadly I don't have a 120hz display. I was thinking this technique could increase fps on any game that supports it regardless of the display.
Now I've extensively tried it I'm not too fussed about 120 fps. Give me a locked 60 and more details and I'm more than happy
The Epic Games Store has yet another free game, and it's a pretty damn good one.
Twitch chat already has some good auto chat mods in place which will delete/ban for spamming, and using certain words.
IP banning sounds like a good idea too, give streamers the option to filter out racists/trolls with there dashboard, so anyone who has been reported to Twitch admins and tagged for racism etc, can be auto banned from viewing streamers who have filtered out those tagged accounts.
For the big Esport tournaments etc, the chat should be in sub only mode, trolls arent paying $5 just to spam swastikas and be insta banned.
Being black I can say I've experienced both sides of the whole racism garbage.
I've had gamers respect me because it's one more person to play certain games with, and since I actually have knowledge through experience. I have my differences in games and consoles, but we are all gamers with the same goal in common - sticking together.
I've also had certain groups of people call me derogatory names because "non white or Japanese people play video games to the extent like I do." I encountered one person go as far as to say racial remarks because I can read better than they can, and actually have a college degree while they are living off the system.
A lot of the racism I've dealt with online are people who didn't get disciplined enough growing up, and/or not enough attention from their family. Since I'm older, and have more experience with online gaming, I just mute those who go to the extreme, and report if they really go overboard. I don't have the time, patience, or drive to even argue back with someone ignorant enough to start trash with someone over the mic.
At the end of the day, I'm a gamer, and I respect those who respect me as a gamer.
