Hyper enthusiast, price-insensitive players are really keeping things going, especially in the non f2p gaming space.
According to Circana's Q3 2025 Future of Games, only 4% of US video game players buy a new game more often than once per month, with a third of players not buying any games at all.

Some early gameplay of Borderlands 4. I’m really enjoying the combat and it’s exactly what this franchise needed. But the performance needs a lot of work, very poorly optimized on PC.

So I'm off work today because I'm going to the Commanders game with my son. Decided to test all of my controllers for input latency, error rate %, and polling rate because I'm bored. Results were fascinating.

This all knives build in Cyberpunk is pretty good despite dealing with a bug introduced in the 2.3 update.
Headhunter + Fang + Blue Fang, and the right build setup should make sure you never run out of knives to throw. Either way, I added the Maxtac Mantis Blades if I ever do.
