  • My modelling is CPU bound as it’s a model made in Fortran by physicists (me included). The fact is that I wouldn’t get a 4x boost, and a model running overnight still would. When I actually need performance I use a 1000 cores compute cluster for multiple days, so that would never run on any consumer CPU anyways.

    For the data processing, the real bottle neck is disk access and my scripting speed, so the CPU doesn’t really need to be amazing.
















  • Rogue was barely advertised and the concurrent release with unity was doomed. Unity was so full of bugs (and there was the whole sexual assault scandal) that Ubisoft lost a ton of goodwill before syndicate.

    They fired the lead designer in the middle of Brotherhood because he didn’t want to push shit games and you feel it. The only good things in Revelation is nostalgia and the bombs. After that you lost the parkour in 3 (although Rogue has some).

    I’m tentatively hopeful with Mirage but I don’t expect the Japan one to be any good.
