Fair enough. I did play PC at launch but that was like almost 9 years ago so I don’t really remember much

IIRC GTA V had basically no issues at launch. RDR2 had some crashing issues, but otherwise it’s like one of the best optimized and most scalable PC ports I’ve ever seen.

Just the trailer itself includes two direct parodies of real Florida people (the tatted guy on TV and the woman with two hammers)

Nah, the press release says it’s releasing on the S

Nah, that’s too far. You’re talking like 2028 there for the next gen consoles. PC probably gonna come 6-12 months later, like almost always.

They must have magicians working for them or something. I guess that’s the advantage of using a completely tailor made engine created with unlimited funding, rather than using Unreal or something.

Rockstar has done nothing but actual in-game footage for trailers since like GTA3. So, yeah, that shit is fucking insane. Doesn’t even look like a PS5 could run it.

Tbh, I expect the singleplayer to be a massive improvement over V, which lacked a lot of the small things that really make a GTA game for me. We’ve already seen some pretty cool stuff in the leaks, like a more limited weapon inventory returning (looks to be somewhere between the old GTA style pre-V and RDR2) and most excitingly for me: fishing. But seriously, I think, depending on what you disliked/found underwhelming about V, VI might end up improving in those areas.

It’s just a gimmick

The thing that gets me is how little creators actually get per individual ad view. Now, collectively, with tens of thousands and millions of views, they get a good bag. But my watchtimes of that minute worth of ads per video? Literally nothing. A fraction of a cent so small it doesn’t exist. I could watch a creator semi-regularly for like 2 years and my contribution to their income by watching ads would be in the single digits. I give them two bucks over Patreon or something just once and that’s worth as much as me giving up hours upon hours of my life watching ads. Now, I can’t afford to give literally everyone I watch more than once a dollar or two. But I give some money here and there to a couple I watch a lot. To make up for my using an adblocker.

Honestly, I’d probably get YouTube Premium if it wasn’t fucking Google behind it.

Did Duchovny have a drinking/drug problem? I know he was a sex addict (which, in retrospect, makes Mulders porn addiction a lot funnier), but otherwise he seems like he has his shit together

Would it make you wish for a nuclear winter?

I only played one for maybe like 2 hours, but they seem like pretty good games, you could probably pick one up for cheap on sale.

Also when I think of Soulslike Gollum, all I see in my mind is this gormless little creature wielding a 6 foot axe or something and that just makes me laugh.

Anyway, yeah, Nacon/Daedelic had several studios that had more experience making stealth-action games. I mean, besides the guys that made Styx, they also have the Shadow Tactics guys. Isometric tactical stealth could’ve been another option.

It’s honestly like they just made the absolute wrong decision for all things during development.

Those were your go-tos for gameplay expectations for sneaking around as a pretty weak little goblin man? I would’ve gone for Styx instead, a game about sneaking around as a little goblin man. (Which I think actually belongs to the same publisher)

The dude hated beans so much, he got killed by pursuers in front of a bean field because he refused to touch them

Stupid deaths, stupid deaths, they’re funny cause they’re true!

Wait, why would they use Unreal? Seems way easier to port them to newer versions of Creation to me.

It will imply my spermia being in them, though

There have been a couple of mods for Fallout 4 and New Vegas to add vehicles. IIRC the only one that wasn’t just an object floating across the ground was in that big expansion mod made by sex perverts, I forget what it’s called. New something?

Power Armor in FO4 is actually classed as furniture in the engine, IIRC

Same. It’s cool for maybe 5 times before you just stop caring. Only thing I miss is actually flying around the planet, and that’s purely for finding the best basebuilding spot.
