So it has three battery packs each the size of an iphone, yet the battery capacity is only twice that of an iphone? Seems pretty meh, and they lock you in with proprietary connectors.

That's a lot of shimmering. Could really use some AA, but performance is poor enough already.

Baldur's Gate 3 comes to mind. It was announced in 2002 and launched in 2023. They even had to cut all the content about black hounds.

There's one point where you can deliberately make out with a brain-eating monster.

There's another where a strict and cruel god-like being demands you hand over something very important to them.

These situations honestly should lead to death if you push it.

Even as a consumer product it's not really possible to boil it down to objective measures. Just like clothing follows tastes and fashions that are inherently subjective, or books, movies and TV shows etc.

Yes, it dips slightly below 60 FPS. Of course it's up to OP if that's good enough.

A plain 6800 should be pretty decent for 1080p60, unless you absolutely must have ultra settings. There are guides on what graphics settings are worth the performance hit, if you follow them you can get nearly identical visuals with a nice bump in FPS.

But I agree as far as the 6750 and 6700 XT, they're already struggling a bit with Starfield, and it's not going to improve going forward.

60 is standard, but there are a handful of companies trying to make 70 the standard.

For those not reading the story, which appears to be many, the company that services the implant went bankrupt. The implant was experimental. There exists no one to service it any longer. It will pose a health risk down the road without someone servicing it.

The story doesn't directly say that's why it had to be removed (and she talks about wanting to buy it). I found another source that explains that the device came with a three-year battery life.

It's not sudden, it's been garbage for a while.

It's 25km/h. There is also a 45km/h category with stricter regulation.

The most hilarious example is that 80s video about snowboards... ah, here it is:
