[plain vine]

Whiterun, that was it!

I was there.

[viral compass]

Idunno how I always get Whiterun and Windhelm confused.

[manic hill]

@viral compass got 🎃 Pumpkin!

[viral compass]

Perfect, I can't play right now anyways.

It's 1:30 am

[plain vine]

Anyway, that's where I was.

I haven't gotten further than that.

[viral compass]

cicero?

[plain vine]

I don't remember what it was, who the guy was, or whatever.

[viral compass]

He has a wagon with his mother in a coffin

The wagon is broked

[plain vine]

No, it was someone who had gone missing.

[viral compass]

I can't recall that quest.

[plain vine]

Specifics, neither. I just remember stumbling upon this dude, agreeing to helping and then following him into some tomb/crypt area.

[viral compass]

Well it might be someone who asks you to help with their family's tomb, I can't remember the specifics of the quest either but I do remember the man.

[plain vine]

Yes, it was a family thing.

[viral compass]

As it so often is with those filthy nords.

[plain vine]

But I got to a certain part and then noped out.

[viral compass]

spoiders?

[plain vine]

Yes.

[viral compass]

F

[plain vine]

That's why I gotta get the mod.

Because I would play it otherwise.

[viral compass]

"cyberpunk gameplay is mid"

Meanwhile cyberpunk gameplay:

[quasi prairie]

Something about cyberpunk?

[devout berry]

@somber valve it is over

[stiff patrol]

What film I watch

[broken galleon]

So gta 4 on pc cutscenes are usually animated at 30fps without any interpolation between frames...except when cutscenes use in game animations instead of one's mocapped or hand made for that cutscene

So no matter how good the framerate is....cutscenes will always look like shit lol

I spent days figuring that shit out lol

Swingset glitch is still awesome tho

[devout berry]

gta

I sleep

[somber valve]

Congrats, you win 1 wish

[stark oyster]

It prioritizes smaller downloads at times.

[devout berry]

I won a dog boy

[somber valve]

Sorry for your loss

[broken galleon]

Like a dog Hyman hybrid?

If so, which parts are human and which are dog? Typical normy esque "bojack horseman" style or wierder like....human head, dog chest, human crotch parts with dog bottom legs and one dog arm and one human arm

[devout berry]

kitsune like

[stark oyster]

Kitsundeez nuts

[fleet gulch]

is this even fair?

[jagged lava]

no.

not even funny how much better it is

[fleet gulch]

the difference between the 6950 and the 4090 is the same as the 6950 and the 3060 ti

[zealous python]

Sheesh

[charred gust]

3090 mofos when they realize it can run games natively and get that high of a frame rate

https://tenor.com/view/forced-to-play-gif-20710116

[fleet gulch]

to add insult to injury

[charred gust]

they really pulled a fast one here

its the 780 to 980 ti age all over again

[fleet gulch]

I'm scared to know how much fps the 4090 will have with dlss on

[charred gust]

legit if you buy one of them you're set, games are gonna be trying to catch up

then when that one game that finally comes to put it to the test the people with the RTX 20xx and 30xx series will start crying about it

[fleet gulch]

cpus are the bottleneck most of the time lmao

[vernal crater]

and now,, which cpu do you need?

[charred gust]

same with the consoles

[vernal crater]

if your cpu cant handle the gpu

[fleet gulch]

intel 18th gen

[charred gust]

its gonna be interesting to see how devs will react

like if they wanted to really make a game that will push it consoles would have to go back to 1080p30

[charred gust]

was it an epic exclusive ?

bruh if you were a fan of the original games you'd love this one, it recaptured everything you loved and more

[stark oyster]

Whose wallet is that?

[charred gust]

they fucking gave dingodile his own arc

[fleet gulch]

one of mine

trust

[charred gust]

and he's no longer a villain too

[stark oyster]

[charred gust]

he's just trying to run his own restaurant

[stark oyster]

Cock has a collection of wallets

[devout berry]

man there is no way that card is so powerful in any game compared to 3090 ti, cyberpunk is somehow so advertised with 4090, like what's the deal

[charred gust]

its just nvidia's usual practice

nothing new

[devout berry]

what does that mean

I'm new to this

[charred gust]

first 2 gens of GPUs after a new console's release are not that mindblowing, for example the GTX 6xx and 7xx series back with the PS4 / Xbox One

then the next one leaves them in the dust

[jagged lava]

finally, 100fps in dying light 2

(VERY HARD)

[grand frigate]

no way

[charred gust]

microsoft trying to figure out a way to convince devs 4 years from now to still release 1080p60 fps games on the series s

[devout berry]

now to work 24/7 so you can pay the electricity bill

[charred gust]

https://tenor.com/view/forced-to-play-gif-20710116

[jagged lava]

it's ackchually more power efficient than the 3090 ti

[devout berry]

WHAT

HOW

how much in watts

[jagged lava]

nvidia figured it out

[devout berry]

But jesus that card is so expensive

[devout berry]

naaaaahhh no way

that is utter bs

[jagged lava]

to put that into context, that's just a bit higher than my 3x12 pin 3080

which is already like 410W

[charred gust]

alright now to wait for ubisoft's true next gen AC

[devout berry]

I can get a 4090 by the end of 2023 but man is it worth to waste that much on a gpu 😭

actually by summer I can

[jagged lava]

of course you can overclock it to the balls and get 666 watt consumption

[charred gust]

cant wait for them to make it so good that it shits on any of the older GPUs and consoles and only run well enough on this card

[jagged lava]

but why would you do that

[vernal tiger]

Hot take: syndicate is the best game in the series and the only two issues with it are unlimited grappling hook uses/no dedicated jump button

[devout berry]

I wouldn't

[jagged lava]

i reckon they're more likely to it for AMD's next generation of gpus tbh

seeing as how they optimised ac valhalla for AMD

[devout berry]

don't wanna pay $90 monthly electricity bill

[charred gust]

i personally wouldn't, like the 980 ti released in 2015 but the 1080 ti in 2016 and that card outlasted it alot longer, the way i'd play it is keep whatever you have rn and get the 5080

[stark oyster]

Tech talk..

[charred gust]

that's if you wanna play it smart, otherwise go for it

[jagged lava]

it's going to take a miracle for the 50 series to be better and cheaper

i reckon it'll be more expensive

unless AMD pulls something out their ass

which i doubt

[devout berry]

I don't know what those old cards had in history, can you summary it for me

[charred gust]

thats a cold take

[charred gust]

980 ti was the first card that shit on the last gen, then the 1080 ti outdid it even further by shitting on the 980 ti,it was a beast

knowing nvidia that's what they'll do next year too, they're just crazy like that

[vernal tiger]

It literally takes all of the best aspects of unity and improves upon them (excluding social stealth, I will admit that’s only used in 2 or 3 missions and it’s completely optional)

[jagged lava]

jensen huang my beloved

[vernal tiger]

Although the typical stealth mechanics are improved so much you barely even notice

And the black box missions are incredible, the hitman style complements it incredibly well

[charred gust]

i respectfully disagree, it took everything good about unity and downgraded it imo (graphics and gameplay mainly), and then the biggest problem is them going back to that dreaded far cry mission progress system, they copy pasted like 2 types of missions (the ones where you have to rescue the children from those factories as well as those cargo hijacks), 80% of the game was go clear this area by doing these types of missions over and over again to get a 30 second cutscene

[charred gust]

now this is a point i agree with which i have expressed multiple times when talking about syndicate, those hitman style missions as well as that jack the ripper DLC are the best things about it

the other thing i thought was a downgrade is the combat, it felt so wonky and wrong it was like watching a cartoon, the grappling hook was a welcome addition in my book but unfortunately they never expanded upon it

[vernal tiger]

The stealth in syndicate is easily my favorite part, just because it take unity’s stealth system but makes it more consistent and fixes the cover stickiness

[vernal tiger]

Yeah the combat isn’t great but let’s be honest, that’s never been the best aspect in the series, plus the map design is so stealth oriented that combat is usually only a fallback option

[charred gust]

tbh if they hadnt fucked up the progression with their far cry system it could've been much better, a completely different opinion i would've had personally

[devout berry]

bruh.. guess I'll stay with my 3060 for a while

[charred gust]

but like that system is just lazy, overdone and completely ruins the game, it's like making a perfect cake but putting chocolate all over it

[devout berry]

do they just make gpus every year

[jagged lava]

every 2 years

[devout berry]

Imagine 50s destroys 40s by more than 60 percent 😭😭

[vernal tiger]

I personally don’t mind that system, I’d rather have the world filled with familiar missions that get repetitive from time to time than absolutely nothing (Valhalla’s open world for example)

[jagged lava]

i feel 50 series is gonna be either cheaper but around the same as 40 series, or better but more expensive

probably won't be both

[charred gust]

yeah but the problem with how they did it is they literally force you to play those missions to progress further, its the same system they do in far cry games after 4 and unfortunately mafia 3

it was even worst for me because i played those 2 games at around the same time

it literally felt like im playing the same game with different themes

[vernal tiger]

I just did them when I passed by and didn’t have to deal with the progression issue

I unlocked sequence 8 before I even finished sequence 5

Although I do understand if it’s not your sort of thing, I play a ridiculous amount of Skyrim and due to this I get sidetracked constantly

[charred gust]

thats literally the thing tho

the sequences are tied to your borough progress

which is a giant side mission simulator, go to the train do a bunch of repetitive garbage over and over again to progress further

[vernal tiger]

Just sequence 8, the rest are unlocked by doing the previous chapter.

[charred gust]

which is like 3 or 4 hours of playtime out of the already short story (relatively speaking compared to the other games) of doing the exact same shit over and over again

it got to the point where i was trying to finish it just to finish it

[vernal tiger]

You have to admit though, the river is one of the coolest districts in all of ac

[vernal tiger]

A constantly changing area with several opportunities for robberies and sabotage

[charred gust]

i thought it was mid, the map in general tbh as well as the game

the only saving grace for me was the jack DLC

also the hitman missions

[vernal tiger]

I still haven’t played Jack the Ripper, although I’ve heard Jack doesn’t get much screen time

[charred gust]

i dont wanna spoil but he gets enough to make him a really compelling villain

[stark oyster]

Left is legendary

[fleet gulch]

yep lmao

[stark oyster]

I sure do love my not so legendary skins

[vernal tiger]

What’s your favorite story in the series?

[charred gust]

hot take

but rogue

[vernal tiger]

Rogue is pretty good, although extremely short

[stark oyster]

I like AC2 the most.

[vernal tiger]

I love the earthquake scene

[charred gust]

^

[manic hill]

@vernal tiger, @stark oyster got 🍬 Halloween Treats x 2!

[charred gust]

rogue is unique because its the only game that shows you the hypocrisy of achilles' creed

[stark oyster]

@sudden quail What's your opinion on Chivalry 2?

[vernal tiger]

I personally think black flag has the best story, as it shows how much Edward changed over the years extremely well, and how greed took everybody he knew and cared about from him.

[charred gust]

the ezio trilogy will always be unmatched

when you look at it overall

[stark oyster]

I was never really a fan of AC but AC2 will always be my favorite.

[charred gust]

it's what i would call a complete trilogy

[devout berry]

what is the difference between samsung and WD when it comes to ssds?

[manic hill]

@vernal tiger got 🎃 Pumpkin!

[stark oyster]

FUCK

Absolute cringe

[vernal tiger]

Brotherhood was fire

[charred gust]

"Change your course Edward, Change your bloody course before it's too late"

that scene is just so goated

[vernal tiger]

I really wish the ezio collection wasn’t so shit tbh, a real remaster for ac2 would’ve been great

[charred gust]

because at that point in the game you feel it down to your core, how accurate it is

it perfectly represents that point in everyone's life where you're at an all time low and you need someone to tell you that to realize it

[vernal tiger]

Also the credit scene

God damn, it’s the only one I watched the whole way through

[charred gust]

western digital's shit is supposed to be better

[devout berry]

i dont get why it is cheaper than samsung ones tho

[charred gust]

i hated how they didn't show the death of that individual who uhhhh did something to edward in AC3

[charred gust]

the samsung evos are supposed to be like bottom of the food chain

[stark oyster]

As long as Hakon doesn't react to that Twitter user, it'll be fine.

[manic hill]

@vernal tiger, @stark oyster got 🍪 Halloween Treats x 4!

[devout berry]

but why are they more expensive 💀

[charred gust]

they're the apple of SSDs

[devout berry]

losers

Hmmm i wanna get a 1tb m.2 but don't wanna spend over $150

[jagged lava]

just get the WD SN550

the blue one

hell cheap and works good

[charred gust]

yeah whatever you do avoid samsung

[jagged lava]

but if u not doing big transfers in a hurry u don't need a m.2

[charred gust]

overpriced and tend to fail alot more often than they should for the price

[jagged lava]

SATA will be good enough

[devout berry]

nah i just want textures and audio to load faster in games, also teleport from waypoints to another quickly

Yes, you can turn the effects off. In fact, you can choose to never put them on in the first place. Just like any other part of a car

This dog

What is it’s name

[shrewd sparrow]

I pre ordered Gotham Knights Deluxe edition 😃

9 days

Can't wait

[stark oyster]

I'm not too excited about that game

[shrewd sparrow]

I am I've been following it since it's reveal

Super hype

And am glad they've shown so much gameplay and content so I know exactly what I'm pre ordering

[fleet gulch]

Actually played the game at gamescom

[shrewd sparrow]

Nice

[fleet gulch]

tho I wasn't the biggest fan of the gameplay tbh

[shrewd sparrow]

I think it looks fun

[fleet gulch]

Got a cool mask tho

[shrewd sparrow]

Who did you play as?

[fleet gulch]

of course red hood

[shrewd sparrow]

Nice

[fleet gulch]

Played him to directly compare to how he felt in Arkham Knight, and honestly, it didn't feel as great

[shrewd sparrow]

Thats part of what I like

The combat in this game looks slower and more strategic. More about good rolls and placement

Free flow is obviously fun but once you hit it's limits there's not much room for improvement

But this game has a whole new combat system with 4 different heros all having 3 different skill trees each

The build potential and variety is gonna be so much fun

Plus the element of co-op and being able to make your build around what your friend has to synergize with eachother

Man I'm so excited

@fleet gulch if you wanted it to feel like Arkham you should have played batgirl

It seems as though she's gonna be the closest to batman's moveset

[fleet gulch]

I didn't want to wait in the queue again

shit was long

[shrewd sparrow]

Red hood is supposed to be the slowest one

He's the brute powerhouse of the group

[pseudo swallow]

30.000 people want to play ow2, now it’s crowded

[shrewd sparrow]

If you don't like the gameplay that's fine I personally think it looks great

The gameplay, world, and co op are what I'm most excited for

Could care less for the story

But if it's good it's good

[manic hill]

@shrewd sparrow, @next glen, @somber valve got 🍭 Halloween Treats!

[stable crown]

I mean the gameplay doesn't look bad, GotG didn't have bad gameplay either, but it doesn't look great imo either

I still pre ordered the game

Everything but gameplay looks great to me

[shrewd sparrow]

I mean it's supposed to be an action RPG

Arkham is more of a beat em up style

[stable crown]

That's correct

[charred gust]

hopefully it doesnt turn out to be mid knights

[shrewd sparrow]

In my opinion they've shown enough gameplay and there's been enough people with hands on playtime with the game to form an opinion on it

[manic hill]

@shrewd sparrow got 🎃 Pumpkin!

[shrewd sparrow]

From what you've heard does it look and sound bad to you?

If so then you won't like it

[charred gust]

gameplay is already mid i can tell, if it can have an interesting open world and plot then i'll tolerate it

[shrewd sparrow]

From everything I've watched the story being good is unanimous

I haven't heard one complaint in regards to the story

The world is apparently lifeless

There's not as many people walking around and driving as you'd expect

But the actual world itself is fun to explore

And the gameplay being mid is subjective, if you don't really like RPG mechanics you won't like it which is a given

I personally wouldnt play a game that I don't like the gameplay of

[charred gust]

it has nothing to do with the rpg mechanics it's just the combat is mid

[shrewd sparrow]

And the combat has everything to do with the RPG mechanics

[charred gust]

any game where the dev gives you one choice to do when an attack is heading your way, which is dodge is mid

[shrewd sparrow]

It is an action role playing game

[charred gust]

i'm talking about those fight scenes they showed

especially that one with red hood

[shrewd sparrow]

What about it

[charred gust]

its trash

[shrewd sparrow]

What about it is trash

[charred gust]

literally everything, the only thing you can do when someone's attacking is dodge, he has the same 2 animations for shooting his pistols, their attempt at having him do CQC is a joke, like their entire animations are just bad

like on a serious note avengers had better gameplay

[shrewd sparrow]

So yeah you just don't like the RPG based combat

That's fine

Doesn't make it trash

[charred gust]

bro there's nothing such as RPG based combat, like what are you talking about

it's trash combat

[shrewd sparrow]

You don't like that you have to dodge which is something that action RPGs are known for. Most famous action RPGs I can think of would be the souls games in which your main evasion tool is dodging for repositioning and counter strikes

The core idea of the combat with games like this is strategy, positioning, and counter attacking

Not just mashing like beat em ups

[charred gust]

yeah but in the souls games you atleast have the option to parry the attacks that are parryable, its a complete system

[charred gust]

which is also the same as mashing the dodge button whenever you see the attack animation starting

reacting in time to parry an attack requires more skill than seeing the slow ass NPC attack that you can learn after seeing it one time and rolling away

[shrewd sparrow]

No because if you mash the dodge button you'll be way to far away to properly strike back

[charred gust]

the point is you can still mash buttons in these games too

[shrewd sparrow]

It's just much less effective

You can press buttons in every game

[charred gust]

and considering what they've showed with red hood the guy was literally dodging away AND still being able to strike back

like it's literally not even a valid point, if anything the system they're going with makes things a shitload easier with red hood's character because he has the pistols

literally any noob can just roll the fuck away and shoot them from afar until they die

[shrewd sparrow]

In Arkham knight I can just stand in a group of enemies and just spam counter - attack - and quick fire tools and get through every fight

That's not to say I'm not having fun, it's just mindless. Which is fine but I like that Gotham knights is adding the role play element to encounters

[shrewd sparrow]

Man discovers builds

See you just don't like RPG mechanics

You don't like that one potential for a red hood build is range

[charred gust]

you'd prefer a shittier system that gets stale after 10 minutes to one that's actually fun to play just because you want something new ? like bruh

[manic hill]

@shrewd sparrow got 🍬 Halloween Treats x 3!

[charred gust]

and idk if you realized it or not but the whole point of the arkham system was to actually keep combos going as well as time the counter just right to get the perfect counter animations which are often more pleasing, and you would progress the character to get more takedowns

in gotham knights you're literally playing the exact same shit every fight

[charred gust]

bro you literally have no idea what i'm talking about, i'm counting all characters in the game, we've already seen nightwing as well as batgirl gameplay, they all follow the exact same garbage system

[shrewd sparrow]

Stale after 10 minutes?

Hmmm 4 heroes, 3 skill trees each, and I believe there were 4 different gear types so that's what a potential of 48 different builds?

Yeah that sounds like 10 minutes of gameplay to me.

[charred gust]

dodge - strike - dodge - strike, its the shittiest laziest most basic system of combat you could make

[charred gust]

48 different builds that all use the same animations and only differ in stats

i get that you enjoy grinding for dumb shit that doesn't change anything other than your character's attributes, just recognize that you're still essentially playing with the same animations and the same gameplay

[shrewd sparrow]

Arkham is literally just counter - strike - counter - strike...

You can literally play the game with two buttons

Gotham Knights actually has different inputs for all the attack types like when they showed nightwings skill tree and how his aerials we're different inputs to his base attacks and how different combo strings would input different dependent on the previous input.

Also, lazy? Really? That's an awful thing to prescribe to people you've never met, know nothing about, and do a job that you could never do

[shrewd sparrow]

They aren't the same animation though. Each knight has a different signature weapon and all have unique movesets and animations to eachother. Red Hood for example is slow but powerful whereas Nightwing is spry and attacks fast

[cunning matrix]

Don’t disrespect Arkham Arkham changed gaming itself 💀

[shrewd sparrow]

I'm not disrespecting it I've already stated that I love those games I'm just calling out the hypocrisy in saying that Gotham knights has only a set amount of things you can do when that's every video game ever, including the beloved Arkham series

@charred gust

https://youtu.be/W2EZZVW7jjQ

[cunning matrix]

Oh hell naw 💀

Arkham city is literally better than Arkham knight

[charred gust]

For the first point i'll repeat myself for the 3rd time, the difference is having that option vs not, in arkham you can dodge AS WELL AS parry, if you don't enjoy one style you can just play the other, or do both, or actually use that as a way to keep the player on edge all the time by switching up attacks you can parry and ones you can't (which also adds replay value since you wanna figure out which you can parry and which you can't like in the souls games)

For the 2nd point i'm not even sure why you pointed it out since that's literally the standard ?

For the final point you just went full crybaby mode there "they do a job you could never do waaah" yeah i could never make an incomplete garbage combat system that would show people i'm lazy and incompetent

[shrewd sparrow]

It's a dunkey video it's ironic but he still makes good points like how you can basically play every fight with just the triangle button

[charred gust]

i was talking about them individually, i'm not saying red hood's movesets are the same as nightwing's, i'm saying those different builds of a character that you, as usual think are different than each other are not, different attributes and that's it

[cunning matrix]

[shrewd sparrow]

So what that you can dodge as well as counter. Dodging is borderline useless in Arkham because you can counter most attacks (or deal with them another way like quickfires) so there's no real good reason to use it. Plus I'm happy that they have their feet firmly planted in their combat system. It means they are confident and have something they are proud of.

They could easily appeal to the masses, they could have halted development after the backlash of the first reveal which was over 2 years ago now. But they didn't. They stick to their guns and made a combat system they like, whether you like it or not doesn't matter.

An argument I always have in terms of fromsoftware games is the difficulty. So many people say that the games would be better if they had difficulty settings because that would make the games more "accessible" to a wider playerbase. The obvious upside being that more people would play the games and fromsoftware themselves would make more money because at the end of the day that's their end goal, so it's a win-win, right?

No. There's no evidence that mass market appeal and catering to a wider audience actually makes a game better or sell more copies. There's actually evidence to the opposite, the souls series would never be the industry icon it is without it's set difficulty. Changing that would be almost paradoxical.

People often times don't realize what they want and what they think they want don't actually coincide. A lot of people go into dark souls and their first couple hours are rage and hatred. Maybe the entire playthrough is that way, and then they beat it. They immediately realize how important it was that the game pushed them to play it just the way it is, if given an option to play at a lower difficulty they may have taken it and been robbed of a valuable experience. The fact that the option was not presented to them forced them to overcome the challenge and by the end they are proud of themselves.

How does this relate to Gotham knights? Well you may not yet know WHY you only have one option. And you are shitting on the game because you don't like it's systems.

This is where I think the lines between entitlement, criticism, and pure hate are completely blurred. People feel like they are entitled to having a game that they like, a game that they would want to play.

But not every player can, should, or will like every game. Some games you enjoy, some you don't and that's totally subjective to the kind of player you are and the game itself.

Criticism is "I don't like 'x' thing because of 'z' reason" or "I wish 'x' could be different by having 'y' instead of 'z'"
Entitlement is "this game is garbage because it doesn't include 'x' thing that I like"
And pure hate is what I see constantly on Twitter and partially what you are doing right now. Getting to the point where you are insulting the developers because you don't like the game they've come up with and feel entitled to having it your way.

You say I go full "crybaby mode," yet you are the ones insulting hard working game developers because they dares make a combat system that isn't clicking with you. It's childish, really.

Again, it's totally okay to dislike something, hell it's okay to hate something but if you give any level of shit to the gaming landscape you should keep your feedback constructive and respectful.

"It's shit because it isn't Arkham" is not only a non-argument but it's also not helpful or healthy at all. The game isn't trying to be Arkham, the developers have been very clear on that front for over 2 years. It's also not helpful because they can't improve from that criticism. If I played elden ring and said "this is shit because I can't jack a car and run over pedestrians" that would be completely meaningless criticism to the developers. They can't improve their game off that argument, it achieves nothing.

Dare i

use words to express a point

I think a lot of people will be eating their words when the game releases, and I don't think my side of the argument are the ones worrying

We've seen so much gameplay we already know we like the gameplay lol

I wouldn't have preordered if I want totally excited to play it

[manic hill]

@shrewd sparrow got 🎃 Pumpkin!

[shrewd sparrow]

I'm telling him it's okay to disagree, to not like it

It's not okay to attack the devs

And calling it shit and trash because you don't like it is pointless

That's basically the TL;DR

[next glen]

what the hell happened

[somber valve]

a genshin impact VA got death threats because her in-game characters was not good

so I know what you mean

[charred gust]

"Dodging is borderline useless in Arkham because you can counter most attacks (or deal with them another way like quickfires) so there's no real good reason to use it. " Bro how many times do i have to repeat myself, IT'S AN OPTION, having it there gives you 2 ways to play the game, if you break your triangle button you can play the arkham games the same way you'll play gotham knights, it's up to you, forcing the player to play in the "HEY ATTACK IS COMING MOVE OUT OF THE WAY" however is just borderline one dimensional game development logic, spiderman had the exact same system but they actually gave dodging a meaning by rewarding you for dodging at the last possible second (in the form of stunning the enemy or getting the instant takedown if you upgraded your character), in gotham knights' system it's just there to get out of the way, there's literally no incentive to get good at the system, learn when to dodge etc because the game doesn't even want you to or present itself in such a manner.

"They stick to their guns and made a combat system they like, whether you like it or not doesn't matter." Yeah they did, and i think it's trash which is why i'm calling it mid, i don't see where's the problem here.

For the essay you wrote about the fromsoftware games it had nothing to do with what i was saying but yeah i don't see any problem with what you wrote.
...

"Criticism is "I don't like 'x' thing because of 'z' reason" or "I wish 'x' could be different by having 'y' instead of 'z'"
Entitlement is "this game is garbage because it doesn't include 'x' thing that I like"
And pure hate is what I see constantly on Twitter and partially what you are doing right now. Getting to the point where you are insulting the developers because you don't like the game they've come up with and feel entitled to having it your way."
You literally self contradicted yourself just between the first and 2nd sentence, i've expressed why i don't like the combat system and what would've made it actually enjoyable like 5 times now, so your first sentence is just not valid, it also has nothing to do with entitlement if i call a game mid or garbage because of that same reason, how i choose to express my dislike of a game is up to me, i'm also allowed to voice my opinion regardless of how the devs wanted to make the game and if the game isn't meant to be enjoyed by me, get this idea out of your head that people aren't entitled to games being how they like, because that was never the point.

"yet you are the ones insulting hard working game developers because they dares make a combat system that isn't clicking with you. " Can you not read ? or is it that you can't comprehend ? i never insulted the devs in any way, i said the system they made is lazy and i even expressed this before when you tried to put words in my mouth the first time by saying i was insulting them, stop trying to use this as an argument against me because you're looking like a karen rn, "YOU'RE INSULTING THE DEVS HOW DARE YOU, HOW DARE YOU!"

""It's shit because it isn't Arkham" is not only a non-argument but it's also not helpful or healthy at all. The game isn't trying to be Arkham, the developers have been very clear on that front for over 2 years." Once again proving you literally have no idea where i'm coming from, the point was never that its shit because it isnt arkham, its shit because it tries to do something new but that something that's new is incomplete, i hope this is clear after only like the 100th time that i reiterate it.

[charred gust]

yeah i get that, just wanted to clear that out outside of the essays

[shrewd sparrow]

I think there's a lot of entitlement in gaming because videogames ride the line between service and art

In the service industry the customer gets a big say in the service they are receiving. If you went too an Italian restaurant and ordered a hot bowl of spaghetti and meatballs but received a cold bowl of fettuccine Alfredo they would be understandably disappointed and angry. The restaurant would probably even try to make it up to them by giving them a coupon or something.

But in art it's different. An artist isn't trying to please a certain group of people with their work. It's just their artistic expression. Anyone is allowed to criticize it and the artist can choose to listen or not. But a lot of people will just outright not like it and the artist really can't do anything about that, at the end of the day they have to just make what they want to make and whoever likes it, likes it.

Videogames sit right in the middle of both. Movies and books are considered art but videogames have interactivity which sets them apart from every other entertainment medium. This is where the entitlement comes in from gamers. They feel like they are customers who aren't receiving a service they think they should receive, but if they'd take a step back for a second they'd realize there was no service to begin with.

Just game developers making trying to create a piece of artistic expression that they are proud of and hoping it garners attention and ultimately makes them money. Some devs are willing to budge for fans while some aren't, but at the end of the day that's up to the devs, not the fans to decide what to do with their own game

[honest crane]

Yeah and you're allowed to criticize as well as express your opinion on said piece of artistic expression, that includes calling it trash, mid, garbage.....(assuming you have your reasons for not liking it aside from just doing so for the sake of it), once again has nothing to do with entitlement, entitlement is if i personally went to harass a dev and ask them to release an update that completely changes the way their game is played, "HURR YOU DONT LIKE THIS GAME YOU'RE JUST ENTITLED" like come on dude

[charred gust]

its a good thing @vital vector ain't a mod anymore

[shrewd sparrow]

1st I'm gonna reply to the second paragraph here. There is no problem. Whatsoever. Not with me, and there shouldn't be with anyone else. You can call it trash or mid or whatever. If you don't like it and want to shit on it that's completely your prerogative and you have the right to exercise it. I'm just pointing out that non-constructive criticism isn't really criticism at all, and furthermore not helpful to a meaningful discussion about the game itself or gaming in general.

Now to reply to the 1st and 3rd paragraphs. I understand that the game is giving you more options and that's something you as a player value. It's something I value too in that context. But the point of the fromsoftware essay was to prove that sometimes more options does NOT always equal a better experience. And in a lot of cases it's actually the opposite.

The TL;DR of the fromsoftware argument and the point I was making as a whole is that having less options can actually make for a much better playing experience whether you realize it immediately or not. We haven't yet got a chance to sink a ton of time into Gotham knights, we don't yet know why they chose to make dodging the only mode of evasion. I reckon I can come up with multiple good reasons, but we just don't know yet. And equating it to the devs being "lazy" is just childish. Does that also make fromsoftware devs lazy by not adding an easy mode?

[charred gust]

"I'm just pointing out that non-constructive criticism isn't really criticism at all, and furthermore not helpful to a meaningful discussion about the game itself or gaming in general." I agree, which is why after i called the combat system of the game garbage i proceeded to give my constructive criticism and point out why i found it that way.

"But the point of the fromsoftware essay was to prove that sometimes more options does NOT always equal a better experience. And in a lot of cases it's actually the opposite." This is obviously a subjective matter and i'm not even sure why you brought it up, but i'm going to assume you realize that too so i'll leave it at that, what i'm also going to assume is that you realize that fromsoftware games do allow you to parry (which is the main thing i said was missing from gotham knights' gameplay), once again you're contradicting yourself here.

"And equating it to the devs being "lazy" is just childish. Does that also make fromsoftware devs lazy by not adding an easy mode?" For the 5th time in a row i will reiterate that i called their combat system lazy and basic, a remark based purely on what the system offers and what it's made of, i will ask you for the 3rd time in a row to stop trying to make it seem that it was directed at the devs directly, did you ever see me call insomniac's combat system lazy for not allowing you to parry in spiderman ? no, because they made it meaningful in the sense that you got rewarded for doing it with skill and timing, there was an additional layer to it if you put in the time to master when to do it, which is the point i was trying to make

[honest crane]

I want to die

[humble fulcrum]

hurts my brain

[shrewd sparrow]

Yes. You've given both valid criticism and hate spew nonsense. For example: "I think it would be cool if this game had a counter system and I don't like it as much because it doesn't have one" is valid criticism. You don't appreciate being forced to just dodge and that's totally fine. Saying you'd prefer counters is totally acceptable and can be helpful for the devs going forward.

But then transitioning from what you dislike about the game to calling it trash and calling the devs lazy immediately robs your criticism of a lot of it's value. If I was a game dev I would much rather listen to my fans that want to give me helpful and constructive feedback over the ones that insult both my work and my character.

Again you are wholy entitled to your own opinion, and Id hope no one tries to take that away from you. But just for the sake of a healthier gaming environment I'd only wish it wasn't so unnecessarily hateful.

and again I don't think it's worth replying to this last part because I think I summed it up fine but "it's shit because it tries to do something new but that something that's new is incomplete" is completely subjective.

You are entitled to believe it's incomplete, but you have to realize you only believe it's incomplete because it's lacking features you desire. Features that would make it a lot more like the Arkham games thus just created a more complex version of my previously stated argument.

You feel like it's incomplete is a completely subjective matter. That's fine, but clearly the devs disagree considering the game comes out in just over a week and there's tons of people like me that can't wait to jump in and explore all the mechanics of this "incomplete" system

[next glen]

are you typing on a separate application or what?

[shrewd sparrow]

This is all reiterated points that have been addressed in above messages but yes, you are entitled to your own opinion and reserve the right to call anything you dislike any slew of insults you can come up with

[charred gust]

"But then transitioning from what you dislike about the game to calling it trash and calling the devs lazy immediately robs your criticism of a lot of it's value. If I was a game dev I would much rather listen to my fans that want to give me helpful and constructive feedback over the ones that insult both my work and my character."

I'm going to repeat myself 2 times because this is getting ridiculous and you clearly still try to make it seem like i insulted the devs, I never did.

This is the 2nd time repeating myself, I never insulted the devs.

This is an extra surprise reiteration just for good measure, I NEVER INSULTED THE DEVS.

"You are entitled to believe it's incomplete, but you have to realize you only believe it's incomplete because it's lacking features you desire. Features that would make it a lot more like the Arkham games thus just created a more complex version of my previously stated argument." For the 3rd time it has nothing to do with it being like the arkham games, was spiderman like the arkham games ? it's literally gotham knights with a dodge system that actually rewards you for pulling it off at the last possible second, it has nothing to do with wanting it to have features that make it like arkham, it's with wanting it to not be just a dodge.

[shrewd sparrow]

I should remind you that I'm not trying to change your mind about the game or change your attitude towards the game.

I'm just simply trying to point out the fact that it's okay that you don't like it and even though I believe you have the right to shit talk all you want, doing so is pretty meaningless.

It doesn't achieve much to needlessly compare a game to Arkham or spiderman when it isn't trying to be either. I was using fromsoftware games as a thought exercise

I can't believe I'm actually about to have to do this but if YOU are the one making the "incomplete garbage combat system" then YOU are the developer.

Your system would show people that YOU (as the developer) is lazy and incompetent

seal the drama

[shrewd sparrow]

Rockstar consistently update game

Content creators make videos on new updates

The videos keep people engaged and keep the game alive

But if there were no updates there would be no content

So it's a cycle of ingame content and video game content that would halt if one stopped happening

If GTAO stopped receiving updates it would die because no one would be making videos about it anymore (it happened with RDO)

but on the other hand if people just stopped making videos about the game it would lose a lot of it's interest and traction very quickly and rockstar would have to move on to something new

well i dont think content creators are the reason the game is alive

[stark oyster]

People are more likely to play things they see others playing it.

[next glen]

atleast not the main reason

[charred gust]

why are we talking about minecraft now

[blazing wraith]

yoooo

that's so sick

[honest crane]

It's like playing Xbox in a cinema

[honest crane]

Frame generation?

That's new

New™

[open moth]

high on life

[stiff patrol]

Yes the thing locked to 40 series as nvidia are scum

[somber valve]

@devout berry

hear me out...

[rocky bronze]

What’s that game?

[stark oyster]

I think it's Genshin

[rocky bronze]

That’s what I thought but I wanted to make sure lol

[stark oyster]

@somber valve how many hours do you have in Genshin?

[somber valve]

idk

you can't see

actually let me

check something

[somber valve]

do the math

[stark oyster]

15264 hours

[somber valve]

well i didn't play 24/7

do like 2/4 hours a day

[stark oyster]

I'd be worried if you did.

[somber valve]

if i played for around 3 hours a day

1,908

but i know its way more

ima go ahead and say

2,400

[stark oyster]

Is the game even fun?

[somber valve]

i like the combat

and some storys are nice to play

but im at the point where I can't sit and listen to dialogue

I just don't care

so combat, exploring is also nice

but dialogue

i just can't be bothered

[stark oyster]

Hmmmm

[somber valve]

I just like to use violence as the answer

[stark oyster]

Fallout New Vegas in a nutshell

[stark oyster]

🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨 🤨

[viral compass]

I've never seen a blue night like this in Skyrim.

or purple i guess

[devout berry]

[somber valve]

Buy it

Dont you have a job

[devout berry]

they didn't update his face

[devout berry]

2k hours

[somber valve]

You are very stubborn

[devout berry]

no

he needs a face change

he looks dead

he is better in the manga

[somber valve]

There are plenty of things that need a change

[devout berry]

and he will probably look even better in the anime

[somber valve]

Speaking of that

How is it agoing

[devout berry]

the anime? it's gonna take a while

[somber valve]

I assume they will use the same va's

[devout berry]

the story will be set 500 years ago

before traveler came

so archons war

[somber valve]

Now that has my attention

But i also would like some parts of the story on it

[devout berry]

I hope we get to see zhongli making mountains on top of mountains and raining them on people

[somber valve]

I just hope its not garbage

[devout berry]

it won't be like the game dw

[somber valve]

I mean yeah

I just hope its not shitty like

Like something that would be Nice to see was kazuha when he parryed raiden

[devout berry]

that is 500 years after

those characters probably won't exist before that

[normal crown]

Pretty much

My fallout new vegas playthrough consists of me getting girls

Which ofc, I can't do irl

[stark oyster]

Skyrim.

Thought you hated it though.

[viral compass]

Don't they say "You always hate the ones you love" or something?

[reef frost]

E

[normal crown]

Bruh this shit coming out exactly on my birthday

Like exactly

[paper thicket]

@devout berry you're awake early

Me too

[normal crown]

Holy shit

[normal crown]

This is making me sleepy

[normal crown]

https://youtu.be/wIXJAqs9dG4 @honest crane @shrewd sparrow

gotham knights started off as the worst marketed game in recent times, to one of the best ☠️ these mfers really fixed that shit

[quasi prairie]

Yup.

The Gotham fans are ruthless and would not tolerate anything less then excellence.

[devout berry]

too used to it now

[devout berry]

@somber valve when you go against someone from your friend list

[fallen shard]

https://youtu.be/2Ojn5zjcjLk

Some one remember this game?

[urban flume]

No

[viral compass]

There's a sequel.

[devout berry]

yeah that was a cool game

[devout berry]

played it, borderlands like graphics eh, I prefer the first one

[viral compass]

I never really played either game, mobile games never interested me much.

[fallen shard]

I know.

And even there is such a thing like this.

https://youtu.be/fLx9Z4t-nBg

[quasi prairie]

Sleep, who needs it.

[stiff patrol]

Like dlss 3.0 is good

But not £1600 good

[jagged lava]

you also get almost 2x the performance

of a 3090

simply pay the nvidia tax to unlock it

[charred gust]

speaking of tax i've been recently informed my shit was received by this scam courrier company here called speedaf express instead of the usual national courrier i'm used to

https://tenor.com/view/forced-to-play-gif-20710116

[jagged lava]

did they just text u about it or is it actually true

[charred gust]

the reason why they're a scam is they impose their own BS tax ontop of the gov one and the gov doesn't seem to care

[jagged lava]

like it could be one of those scams where they're like "we have your package pay 30 dollars to release it"

[charred gust]

nah it says it on the aliexpress tracking page

gg wp

[jagged lava]

oh lol

cringe

well if it makes it to you that's all that matters

[charred gust]

gonna have to pay 44.5% (22.5% that the gov imposes plus their cut)

[manic hill]

@jagged lava got 🍭 Halloween Treats x 5!

[charred gust]

whats even worse is they dont even have any sort of legal documentation regarding how much they'd tax you for each product, i've seen people pay 6$ in their imaginary tax for a 1$ item

[jagged lava]

sounds about right for aliexpress

that being said, i buy shit from taobao all the time

it's lowkey great it's like chinese amazon

[charred gust]

the reason why we all hate them is they're literally like that guy who sticks his nose in everybody's business, normally you'd have to go to the national courrier, pay the regular tax and get your shit right, these guys will do that for you when literally no one asked AND charge you a shitload for it, and its like no one fucking asked for them, whats even worse is they're not like fedex where they'll make your shipping faster or anything when you buy something with free shipping you gotta just hope it's handed over to the national courrier

[normal crown]

Does the PS5 have any games yet?

[devout berry]

Demon souls Remake
Returnal
Final Fantasy 7 Remake: Intergrade

rachet and clank

you could use google

you know

[fleet gulch]

Horizon Forbidden west too

[devout berry]

That's on ps4 aswell no?

in that case, spider man remastered, miles morales

actually nvm remastered is only on ps5

[fleet gulch]

ye

[normal crown]

Oh yeah The Demon Souls Remake. . . Totally forgot about it

Not willing to look more into it, but just 10 games; that's close to just about nothing

[devout berry]

forspoken soon

[honest crane]

💀

I swear Bloodborne is getting toyed around with at this point

[devout berry]

@somber valve now i wanna get the skin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LpgzbQ0-cIA&t=90s&ab_channel=変な親爺Henna-Oyajii

[stiff patrol]

Only in some tasks

And with help of dlss which isn’t exactly the card being fast there it’s just a good ai program

[manic hill]

@stiff patrol got 🎃 Pumpkin!

[stiff patrol]

[fleet gulch]

they had no reason to make us fucking shit our pants with the last one

[stiff patrol]

Manbat

🦇

[broken galleon]

This is prolly a mistake, but ima try out gta 5 online now that I've got starlink internet

[stiff patrol]

It’s fun with friends

And that’s it

Solo it is ass

[broken galleon]

Never got to actually try this legitimately, last time I tried was around the pc launch and it was a hackers paradise that was impossible to enjoy legitimately

[stiff patrol]

If you thought the hacking problem was bad at launch

[stiff patrol]

Then I wouldn’t even debate playing it now

[broken galleon]

I just heard explosions raining down when I loaded into the game

Yeah hackers are still a problem I'm guessing by the looks of that kill log and sounds

[stiff patrol]

There is like two in every session

At least

[broken galleon]

How can hacking be so bad in a game that's made so much money with its online mode?

[stiff patrol]

Because it made so much money

They don’t give a fuck as they know people are just gonna play it regardless and spend money

And even if they stop

It has made so much money they probably couldn’t care less

And with gta 6 soonish they probably aren’t even remotely concerned

[broken galleon]

But how does it keep making money

[stiff patrol]

New cars releasing

[broken galleon]

That implies people are getting around the issue

[stiff patrol]

Or buildings

Which issue? The hacking one?

[stiff patrol]

[broken galleon]

Yeah

[stiff patrol]

We don’t get around it

We just deal with it

[broken galleon]

Dunno how they can even justify a complicated online mode again if they can't solve this basic issue

[stiff patrol]

I did know a guy that modded the game a long time ago as he told me

He did it for months

He did get banned

By swearing in chat

If they have an anti cheat

It don’t work so good

[broken galleon]

That can't be true lol

Unless by swearing he ment racial slurs

[stiff patrol]

I know it sounds unbelievable that’s how dumb it is

[stiff patrol]

Nono

It was just insulting a guy in chat that killed us

And he reported him

[broken galleon]

I dunno how you can get in trouble for swearing in chat in an m rated game

[stiff patrol]

Swearing is censored

In chat

[broken galleon]

Its not for me

Just tried

[stiff patrol]

Not to you

Only to others

You can see what you wrote but others see stars

[broken galleon]

Did they ever add any more TV shows?

Lmao what sort of bullshit is this flying jet cycle they stole from saints row 3

[stiff patrol]

They got

News

And hentai

[broken galleon]

So nothing added post launch?

[stiff patrol]

Idk really

Not needed though really

As the tv is pointless

[broken galleon]

Loved watching virtual TV while packing a bowl or rolling a joint

[stiff patrol]

You do have a lot of shows

Those are just the two I remember

[broken galleon]

I've seen em all back on ps3 lol

Havnt seen any new ones so far

[stiff patrol]

Watch out for flying bikes

[broken galleon]

The saints row ripoff one or literally flying bikes

[stiff patrol]

The booster with a chair

[broken galleon]

I remember seeing a hacker make it rain tanker ships before

So I don't write any possibilities off

[stiff patrol]

https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/gtawiki/images/8/85/OppressorMkII-GTAO-front.png/revision/latest?cb=20180725181109

[honest crane]

[broken galleon]

Yeah that was in saints row 3 lol

[stiff patrol]

Someone turned the game into the mirror dimension from doctor strange

[honest crane]

Bro scared the fuck out of me so hard. I went to the menu on accident

Then took a pic because of the perfect timing

[broken galleon]

This news channel is a cool idea tho

[fleet gulch]

I remember this moment damn well, I was eating macaroni while that happened, fucking dropped it all on me

[broken galleon]

I used to play the fuck outta gta4 online, got damn good at it too on pc

I still got an amazing moment captured on my old first youthe channel that I still can't believe happened

No idea how the guy was that good flying the helicopter

But fuck me whoever the guy was....absolute legend

https://youtu.be/2CnlTy8BDww I was the guy in the golf cart, somehow avoiding death

[honest crane]

[stiff patrol]

Look I found it

I thought I'd step in GTA Online on PC thinking I might be fine under a new name... turns out I am wrong.

This game is a mess.

The fucking mirror dimension

This is how fucked up the game is

[broken galleon]

As someone who plays alot of vr, dlss 3 sounds like a horrible idea

[honest crane]

Bro be living in the Doctor Strange world

[broken galleon]

All attempts at frame generation like that are horrible in practice

[stiff patrol]

That is literally online mode

[honest crane]

DLSS 3 could be a game changer

[stiff patrol]

It’s just

[honest crane]

💀

[broken galleon]

You'll see wierd shit like shapes of objects being slightly distorted

[honest crane]

Who fucked the game in that server

[stiff patrol]

Modded can do that I gta

[stiff patrol]

Random modded

Not even that

[honest crane]

[stiff patrol]

That stuff is there

It was a mod menu from a random player

The game is just that ducked it can’t detect that

[honest crane]

Bro really said: make the upside down real in GTA online

[broken galleon]

I played with spawnsers in gta 4 offline and uses to make bridges into the air out of skate ramps

Just by holding the spawn button down and running forward it was like using the stamp tool to draw in Mario paint

Only the stamp was skate ramps

It would always make a path for you to run at an angle towards the sky

[stiff patrol]

https://tenor.com/view/no-way-home-mirror-dimension-doctor-strange-fall-spider-man-gif-25107442

Mf said this

[broken galleon]

So it was like "boop instant Bridge to the sky time"

Man just watching this spectator stuff.....this is so dumb

Part of what made gta great was how grounded it was

Sure you could do crazy shit but the grounded nature made that crazy shit feel legitimately crazy by contrast

Gta online is just saints row 3 online

[stiff patrol]

Game modes are fun

Adversary mode

At least some

Some races are with friends

[broken galleon]

I dunno what to even do lol

[stiff patrol]

Police chase

Or adversary mode

[broken galleon]

I wanted to see story stuffs

[stiff patrol]

Story mode

[broken galleon]

The online story

[stiff patrol]

Heists

[broken galleon]

Since that's where the single player dlc went to

[stiff patrol]

Oh that

Idk anything about that really

🧁

[broken galleon]

Game looks good at 4k maxxed out though,specially for a ps3 game

I never messed with em since I didn't want to get my account flagged for hacking

But that might not he an issue lol

[stiff patrol]

You got more chance at winning the lottery

4 times in a row

In the same hour

[charred gust]

"realistic" graphic mods : puddles and a postfx filter

[stiff patrol]

I hope cyberpunk 2 is multiplayer like gta

[charred gust]

i swear the amount of people that can't tell a filter is too damn high, that shit worked in BF3 and 4 but its over, get over it

[stiff patrol]

Would be pretty cool

[broken galleon]

Did you see the one done that makes it look like actual dash cam footage

Lemme find it

https://youtu.be/50zDDW-sXmM @normal crown

Its some kind of deepfake assisted thing someone was working on

[charred gust]

yeah its like we're not actually looking for games to look like real life

because real life looks worse lmfao

[stiff patrol]

I think horizon forbidden west graphics are nicer than irl

They more colourful

[broken galleon]

Indeed. I find the imperfections make it more appealing

Like controlling a drone in real life lol

There is a reason why professional photographers are still a thing after all

It takes skill and equipment to get optimal results with cameras

[stiff patrol]

[honest crane]

Games look better than real life

Real life in general is the worst video game

[stiff patrol]

Tutorial too long
Graphics good
Heavily pay to win
Ridiculous difficulty
Combat is usually very unbalanced

[broken galleon]

Winning is highly subjective

Considering all the rich and successful people that rage quit

Wtf is "mental state' stat in gta online

[stiff patrol]

How crazy you are

How many you kill

[broken galleon]

Yeah but how is that determined

[stiff patrol]

By how many people you kill

[broken galleon]

Opponent kills are just kills in general

[stiff patrol]

Any kills

Just vandalism crime and murder

[shrewd sparrow]

I saw that

8 days left

[honest crane]

Faaacts

[devout berry]

he entered the doctor strange realm

[broken galleon]

I'm liking gta online when I find peep to play with

Surprising it works so well on starlink internet

I can't remember how you save your money though

[charred gust]

pull up your phone go to the browser and that banking site you can withdraw from there

[normal crown]

yes

excited altho I wont get it on launch

[broken galleon]

But how do you deposite

I just did one of those story missions online by accident via joining someone's game

[charred gust]

the same area

[broken galleon]

Its a shame this stuff didn't make it into single player dlc

It definitely feels like it was designed for singleplayer

I bet it would be alot more engaging if i got to see the start of the story

[broken galleon]

Thx

[blazing wraith]

yeah it works fantastic on it.

[devout berry]

One day I'll get starlink, if they make better coverage

[stiff patrol]

Is so much better with a friend

[blazing wraith]

I just play alone usually

it's still fun either way

[charred gust]

you know whos also fun
