[@straufaula]

Pin this please, man needs more subs

[@johnfernandez8566]

Yes he does

[@KMA_Cadi]

Dude, your real life lore about caretaking and health issues or conditions was hell of a snap back to reality. Big respect, man!

[@Venoxium]

I try my best!!!

[@ASMCourtney]

I tale care of my grandmother with dementia, its one person and im fairly neurotypical excpet for severe adhd, and it is brutal, i cant imagine having multiple people responsible for. Youre a beautiful human, ty for sharing yourself with us.

elite editing, I love when I don't feel compelled to watch a video at 2x speed

[@Venoxium]

My editing style is definitely aimed towards ppl with ADHD lol

[@apexalexr]

@@Venoxium Love the vids. Make me realize that I probably don't have adhd. A tad fast sometimes but I like the content.

[@wardzer]

actually setting your wishgranter life to 5 days is gonna take about 8-10 ingame days to get another life depending on how long you sleep

[@Venoxium]

Yup it typically takes a while which is fine. As I said if I die before Brain scorcher then the run has already failed imo.

[@senyaborovikov1015]

Hey man, take care of yourself! I know how easy it is to neglect your own needs when taking care of others, but don't forget about yourself too. Best wishes for your family!

[@Venoxium]

Thanks!!!

[@eyesikpc]

I love your videos man. Glad to see you're gaining a ton of subs. Crazy to see a small KZbinr double their subs over a single series - It's well deserved. Keep it up!

[@Venoxium]

Yeah it's really insane. Last 28 days I've gained 3,000 subs

[@CristianMalaquias]

Stalker Gamma Invictus challenge gameplay with criticism do America and companies. Well, sign me up.

[@nonbiri8904]

23:10 might be mutant bleed on the work there, so technically you got the last hit

You are are a good man ! I wish you all the best

[@techmedicexe]

Thanks!

[@Venoxium]

Thanks a lot!!!

[@miauw3n]

You're actually not supposed to get a universal cleaning kit... (Grok removed it from the loot pool and traders)

[@CAT-vn3jl]

convinced me to start doing ironman runs after like 1000+ hours of stalker gamma

[@ASMCourtney]

I swear, I'm finishing up my first gamma run on all easy and gonna go in for a full difficulty run. Then may start doing challenge runs. It's such a good presentation, merry Christmas or holidays bb

[@Venoxium]

Let's GOOOOOO

[@Savorix]

I find the hold your ground mission to be an easy farm for handgun & shotgun ammunition. It's not too bad by the time you have a scoped bolt action or a decently accurate rifle. Just bring plenty of ammo.

[@Venoxium]

Have you done the Merc one? Cause that one is hell

[@Savorix]

@@Venoxium I have not done a merc run in 9.3 yet. Is it all monolith? I miss being able to walk into limansk and hunt them in the early game. The duty one is just bandits. Usually get a veteran/expert or two in the last wave, but mostly low ranks.

[@Venoxium]

Yeah it’s all Monolith but the bad part is they’re all low rank. So you don’t really get anything for it. It’s basically just a way to waste ammo. You don’t even get that much $$$ from it either.

[@noobguy9973]

Have you changed any visual settings at all btw? I feel like your game is less ''glowy'' compared to mine where every light source seems to make everything glow and make a big ass shadow around the light itself.

[@Venoxium]

All my changes have been shown here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5XPaKuQp9-nrJI

i love your series man pls do not die in this one

I'll try!

[@alekstoural9977]

Love the vids man with the new gamma update how do I get rid of the depth of field while reloading? I couldn’t find the setting

[@Venoxium]

Go to MCM settings, SSS, then go to "weapons DoF" and turn everything off or set to 0

Yo, how did you take the mutan part so quick ? I always have an animation

[@Venoxium]

I think if you click “\” or something you can disable item animations like that but I don’t remember.

Invictus is easy now beat gamma one handed

[@kolikolikolikolikolikolikoliko]

one handed...... huh.....

I don't wanna know what the other hand was doing

Hi great content💪

[@Venoxium]

Thanks!!!

[@Sira_Kackavalj]

Tbh I think getting better armor at the start is better. Its easier to buy consumables than to get good armor early game, What are the artifact settings you use?

[@luckychan1183]

9:20

[@Venoxium]

Default Artifact settings. I won't be changing anything for DAO unless GAMMA really fks me hard. To be fair, no one had a problem with CheekiBreeki changing his settings so I'd be fine, but I'd rather try it out on default settings first.

[@rafel3702]

Hi, how do you get gamma to look that colourful? Great vid :)

[@Venoxium]

I show everything in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5XPaKuQp9-nrJI

@@Venoxium Thank you!

[@mallow443]

We all making this one bros 🙏 (I'm doing a merc invictus myself lol)

[@Venoxium]

I hope! It would be insane if I do it first try...but I won't keep my hopes up LOL. Especially with my mouse double clicking & my keyboard doing the same (or not registering inputs)

[@amanaxus]

Can you beat Gamma on hard-surv (not invi) without hunting artifacts?

[@Venoxium]

You definitely can. But I'd prefer for the series not to be 200+ hours long LOL. I'd have to take everything so incredibly slow.

[@amanaxus]

@ many thanks for the answer :)

[@kjaesp]

don't know if I fully agree about amd's complacency. Yes zen5("5%") but for example in the 9800x3d they changed so much about that chip's production process that allowed it to be so good. The CPU core die is now on top of the 3d cache die instead of the other way around, significantly decreasing the power/heat limits of the x3d parts. AMD also still uses a lot of open and/or free alternatives instead of propierty closed source nvidia stuff. I agree that corps are never our friends, but AMD is no market leader in either cpu or gpu (maybe gaming cpu's only) so they still get some bonus points for their lack of propietary implementations of things if possible. Sorry to hear about your personal situation gave you a follow on twitch ill see if I can pass my twitch prime your way. Good luck with the invictus run!

[@Venoxium]

Yes the X3D was an example I gave of them still innovating but right now AMD isn’t going as hard as they should be. They used to have a ton of budget CPUs and now they have nothing at the low end besides older AM4 parts. And while overall market share for AMD is lower than Intel for CPU’s. The amount of people buying AMD has gone up an insane amount. All the top CPU sales on Amazon are all AMD. There is no Intel whatsoever. Even amongst friends in real life, who don’t know anything about computers are telling other friends that Intel is bad and AMD is good. Especially after the whole 13th and 14th gin issues that Intel is having. There is so much more AMD could be doing but instead they’re going to bask in the good sales and suddenly Intel will topple them again. And while AMD does support the open source community, they don’t do that out of the goodness of their hearts. They typically do it because they have to. FSR would not work as a close source solution like Nvidia DLSS. Don’t get me wrong though, I do love the AMD CPUs. And if I were to upgrade my PC tomorrow, I would 100% try to buy a 9800X3D.

[@meczus1]

Im glad i didnt born in US, maybe in Poland we getting pay less but atleast we dont have 7k$ bills from hospitals. Sad man, keep up good work it will pay off. I think yours yt will grow

Awe shit boiiii

[@masong212]

can we get a full video???

[@Venoxium]

I did stream the entire thing live. The 2nd EP will be up tomorrow at 11am EST: kzbin.info5yHbqE8THGc?si=pn7wtADuwxVLhrzs

[@Abdennour-j3r]

I was sick so i was away but i wonder last months you were so excited about stalker 2 why didn't you made any vid about it just wondering and i wish you all be best ❤

[@Venoxium]

I’ve been posting videos from time to time and streaming STALKER 2 but I’m waiting for updates and for me to have more time so I can do longer streams. Cause 2hrs isn’t enough when trying to make progress in STALKER 2.

[@Albert41122]

Wait...is that new run or You split 4 hours video into smaller pieces ????

[@Venoxium]

4hrs split into smaller pieces. 2hrs = 40min video for me. So that 4hrs was 2x Episodes.

[@miauw3n]

I wuuuuvvv yuuuuuu

[@calebhounsell8132]

Do you think using the in-game fast travel is cheating, not the guides but the fair fast travel mod even for just moving base?

[@chlebowski1236]

play however you want you will not get banned

[@calebhounsell8132]

@chlebowski1236 I'm not really worried about being banned lol, I've never done an Invictus run myself, so I'm just wondering about smaller stuff

[@Kegerfish]

​@@calebhounsell8132biggest thing is if you use the fast travel it'll spawn you in around possible enemies. So it's better to not in ironman to avoid dieing on loading in

[@calebhounsell8132]

@@Kegerfish AHHHH gotcha, thanks 😊

[@Venoxium]

Play how you want, but I do consider it too powerful. You can basically teleport from anywhere and while the price can be expensive, it'll easily allow you to skip a ton of stuff so I've always considered it too much
