I decided to test latency by playing through the back half of the marvelous Bayoneta 1 PC port and was bombarded with impossible-to-dodge off-screen attacks. There are, of course, very significant drawbacks and compromises. Not only were the intensely vibrant color palettes of Night City's distinctive districts made eye-wateringly beautiful on an analog display, but my calculated drop in graphical settings had performance consistent throughout. I had the same experience with Cyberpunk 2077-soaking in the iridescent electric blues, greens, and magentas of Night City was so transformative I wound up replaying the whole game over the course of a week. On high-end PC games, this frees up significant GPU muscle that can be directed towards texture quality, lighting, or resolution-running the notoriously unoptimized Darktide at 1050p with most of the post-processing disabled produced a noticeably more appealing image on a CRT than on my LCD monitors, and giving me a few extra much-needed frames. The CRTPixels account on Twitter highlights how the "fuzz" of a CRT display smoothes out the naturally rough edges of pixel art (often for the better), and modern games benefit from that analog fuzz too, giving the image a sort of built-in anti-aliasing. Low res console games also benefit visually by sidestepping the muddying process of HD upscaling. The CRT melted away a lot of the jagged low-res "details" mapped onto the exposed surfaces of the mecha, now giving more of an impression of rivets, sensors, and panels rather than the masses of pixels actually conveying them.ĬRT displays are coveted in the retro gaming community, particularly among fighting game fans who treasure the few extra frames of responsiveness an analog signal grants them. One of the first games I rushed to boot up was Armored Core 3 (emulated through PCSX2), a long overdue replay in advance of the upcoming Armored Core 6. When I had finally set everything up (and properly configured the RGB balance), I basked in the full glory of yesteryear's technology, the CRT filter options in Hotline Miami and emulators immediately made redundant. My motorized standing desk has been begging for death since I got this thing in January. There are also now more Lugonu altars in the Abyss, and more piety is awarded for conversions in the Abyss.One fumble I made during my acquisition was not pre-measuring the full footprint of the monitor-a CRT is going to be fighting your entire setup for the space it deserves, ideally a deep corner desk with plenty of support. To encourage adventurers to abandon their current god, Lugonu helpfully banishes some hostile monsters whenever other gods act with their wrath. Banishment is available at 2* piety (instead of 3*) and mutates foes that resist getting banished. Additionally you can now find randart orbs, scarves, and magical staves!įinally, Lugonu has been mutated into a new form. We’ve added 6 new unrands and made changes to 11 existing ones.
