[somber valve]

the game aint a 3

[leaden orchid]

I rated it a 4

Angry Joe rated it a 3

Then someone said that AJ belongs in a cell because he's insane and only rates games well if he's paid.

I called him delusional and this was someone else's response

[charred gust]

I rated it an 8 but why is that person bringing up ragnarok into the conversation

average xbox fanboy attitude radiating from him

[steel scaffold]

Callisto Protocal could’ve been so good

[harsh tree]

Wokearok doesn’t even make sense

What woke shit does the game do

It’s not like they made kratos gay

[charred gust]

yeah its literally some clueless xbox fanboy who never played the franchise type shit to say

imagine being one of those bigots who refuse to play other franchises because of the imaginary console wars

[harsh tree]

I heard someone hate on ragnarok cause they decided to include people with brown skin in the game

When they’re just masking racism with a game review

[steel scaffold]

Console wars was for 10 year olds back in like 2008 lmfao

[stark oyster]

[harsh tree]

Sunset overdrive 2 when

Or at least a sunset overdrive port to PlayStation

Sony owns the company the made the game now

[charred gust]

if you actually partake now or ever in the console wars anything you have to say is automatically ignored

[steel scaffold]

Just own both consoles, it solves everything💀

[charred gust]

toxic xbox fanboy try not to spend more time trash talking sony's IPs than playing xbox's challenge :

like we all get it, the 2 major franchises you once had were driven to the ground and the only thing xbox still makes that is relatively fun is forza but come on

mfs who unironically say dumb shit like cod is gonna become an xbox exclusive and use that as their last straw lmfao

it's like ronaldo fans who try to say mbappe is the new goat

[steel scaffold]

Sony complains too much for cod to ever become a xbox exclusive lol

[leaden orchid]

dad of bore wokearok

[charred gust]

cod sells most on ps consoles still

[steel scaffold]

Which makes sense why they dont want that sale to go through

[leaden orchid]

The guy himself responded

[charred gust]

when they start putting it on game pass if they removed it from sony that'd be a death wish

[leaden orchid]

Didn't cod recently bypass Elden Ring in sales or smth?

[charred gust]

like you know the people who are gonna be buying it are a minority in comparison to ps

[steel scaffold]

But i find it funny when xbox wants to have more exclusives and then sony is like no you cant do that😂

[charred gust]

setting aside his gow remark and the fact that he's arguing opinions that are subjective i stopped watching joe myself a long time ago

[stark oyster]

I believe so since mw2 is on steam

[steel scaffold]

Just watch Before you buy. Really the only review you need

[leaden orchid]

I don't always agree with Joe nowadays either but with Alex and Other Joe with him the reviews become more balanced with multiple viewpoints

[charred gust]

it's not that he's paid its just that ever since his the order 1886 review i don't care for reviews anymore

[harsh tree]

Not really surprising, COD is a much more mainstream game

Or at least a more mainstream genre

[leaden orchid]

Before You Buy has always been pretty damn good despite being from a major mainstream channel (Gameranx)

[charred gust]

when you find that 10/10 game that you see everyone giving a 6/10 they become useless

[harsh tree]

The only people still really playing elden ring are those who like souls games overall

But everyone can get into COD and like it somewhat

[charred gust]

sales never represented quality, it works both ways

[leaden orchid]

If I disagree with their take I just disagree with their take, rather than everything to do with them.

[harsh tree]

No Aussie you must dislike them as a person if they disagree with you on a video game

😡

[leaden orchid]

It's why I still watch Joe despite disagreeing on some of his reviews

[charred gust]

I just play the game for myself and find out

[steel scaffold]

Pre sure cod sold more in 10 days than elden ring had in months lmfao

[leaden orchid]

The benefit of his reviews are that they're entertaining

[leaden orchid]

I can't always afford to do that

[leaden orchid]

The power of mainstream gaming

[harsh tree]

I stopped watching joe when he reviewed dying light and didn’t give it a perfect score lol

10 year old me was furious

Absolutely livid

[leaden orchid]

DL absolutely deserved that score at release

It is just SO much better now tho

[harsh tree]

Idk his main complaints were about the story

Which I agree with now

He liked everything else about the game

[steel scaffold]

And people wonder why Microsoft wants cod😂 regardless of how people feel about it, the game still sells

[leaden orchid]

BTZ preorder, backtracking with the sewers (I've actually gotten lost there once or twice in my early days too)

And the bugs

The only time I've been really miffed by AJ is when I bought Dragon Age Inquisition because of his review

Complete regret

Really hated that game, nothing felt right about it to me

This was when I was still playing on console so no Steam refund

[harsh tree]

I generally don’t like game reviews since I end up largely disagreeing with most of them

Or at least can find some fun in a game that is rated poorly

Or dislike a game that’s rated highly

[steel scaffold]

Ign 7/10

[harsh tree]

Assassins creed odyssey and Witcher 3

[leaden orchid]

If I'm really interested in the game I watch multiple reviews to gauge a general consensus

Otherwise I watch AJ reviews for entertainment even if I have absolutely no care about the game he's reviewing

[harsh tree]

Yeah I watch reviews after the I play the game to get a different perspective and put theirs against my own

[leaden orchid]

Yeah me too

[harsh tree]

It usually changes the way I view a game and makes me get my final score more accurately

[leaden orchid]

Sometimes reviewers put into words how I've been feeling about a game I've played

[harsh tree]

Yeah exactly

[steel scaffold]

Nowadays you absolutely have to look at reviews. Nothing is as it seems anymore with trailers and such

[charred gust]

the problem is alot of reviewers spend 20 of 30 mins to say nothing

[harsh tree]

The true hero’s are the folks in the comments who make a time stamp for the true review

10 minutes of background talk
10 minutes of spoiler warnings
5 minutes of ads
5 minutes of actual review

[charred gust]

like you're supposed to tell me the objective parts about the game, does it have a copy pasted mission structure throughout the game, how deep is the weapon / loadout system, does it have tedious shit that sort of stuff

i don't care about "yeah i really enjoyed the game, it looks good and the gameplay is really fun" for the entire review, like yeah im sure someone could say exactly the same thing about roblox

[harsh tree]

Every bad game has at least some value in the fact that new games are generally just fun to play because they’re new and different

It takes a while to truly start seeing behind the curtain of a new release and notice flaws

[charred gust]

yeah and the problem is people legit can't see past this, so what happens is people end up giving 2018 game a 6/10 and 2019 game a 10/10

[leaden orchid]

That's why longevity is important to show long lasting quality

[charred gust]

so as a buyer when you see that shit and the reviews also push it, then you actually go ahead and buy the game you realize you've been fucked

[leaden orchid]

There's a reason why classic games are classic and people go back to playing them

[charred gust]

what i'll always find hilarious is how people all unanimously agree to hate on shit like FIFA / NBA and the other major sports games for being the same shit yet praise cod and more recently far cry

[harsh tree]

They survived the trial of time

A video games worst enemy is gamers losing nostalgia lol

[leaden orchid]

The oldest game that I've thoroughly enjoyed is Age of Empires 2 (1999)

[charred gust]

like i get that you don't realize you're playing the same game because it's alot more camouflaged and dressed up in comparison to those games but like when one of those games who actually try to innovate flop you're causing the devs to literally take a step backwards

[harsh tree]

I forgot what game I played that was super old but I loved it as a kid

Some games are truly just amazing regardless of whatever year you play them in

Especially if the game has a thriving modding community

Bethesda games being a prime example

[leaden orchid]

Well games can try to innovate and fail, and some others can try to innovate and succeed. Just because something is different doesn't mean it's good.

It's just different

[harsh tree]

Sometimes a formula has been done so much because it just works

[charred gust]

alot of devs have a hard time nailing new classics because they try to somewhat constrain themselves to the formula as opposed to back in the old days when the formula wasn't made yet so devs were just being really creative

it's like why the RDR games are still unmatched

if you can make a classic that's fresh you can keep making them forever

[harsh tree]

Rdr1 always surprises me by how ahead of its time it was

The fact that I was playing it in 2010 and experiencing that game as a 6 year old and am still able to play the game now and get even more enjoyment from it is crazy to me

The detail and story telling are unmatched, whatever miracle drugs rockstar is on, I want them

[leaden orchid]

If it becomes available on the gamepass at some point I'll have to try it

I've just never thoroughly enjoyed a Rockstar game

[harsh tree]

They’re not for everyone

People hate the long animations and the not super fast paced nature of them

The enjoyment of rockstar games comes from immersing yourself as the character you’re playing as and the world you occupy

If those kind of games aren’t for you and you prefer sandbox style games then I doubt rockstar games are your cup of tea

Not saying rdr or gta aren’t sandboxes but they’re just very different from other types of games

[leaden orchid]

I think it's just third person games that I really struggle with

But then again I love DS3 and Elden RIng and Gears of War etc

[charred gust]

The problem is alot of the times the community just doesn't know what it wants, what happens is devs go back and forth without realizing they're just wasting time and ruining potential, it's like zombies in cold war vs in vanguard, people literally don't know what they want because the community that complains is often the one that doesn't even have the data to form a proper complaint, people who shit on cold war's zombies i can guarantee you never played the classics, because if you did you'd realize you don't wanna play shi no numa for the 10000th time and ONLY have that, so they took 10 steps backwards in vanguard and ended up creating the shittiest zombies ever

[leaden orchid]

Cus I unironically prefer Cyberpunk over GTAV

Despite knowing it's a "worse" game

[charred gust]

you havent played any of the RDR games ?

[leaden orchid]

I have not

[harsh tree]

They’re special games

Not for everyone though

Rdr2 is very slow paced when it comes to gameplay and looting

[leaden orchid]

I saw gameplay of RDR2 and it looks way too slow

[harsh tree]

It’s not like you’re gonna ghost runner the shit

[leaden orchid]

Where immersion takes away from engagement for me

I had a similar issue with Witcher 3 to a lesser extent

Which is why I couldn't get past 8 hours of playing it

[harsh tree]

Honestly depends, I got really used to the slow paced nature due to there always being something to do in every part of the world

Like there isn’t a single dead stretch of land in rdr2

There’s always an event, a mystery or an npc to remind you that you’re actually playing a game

[steel scaffold]

I didn’t even notice how slow it is lol

[charred gust]

what do you mean its slow paced in terms of gameplay ?

[harsh tree]

And the map isn’t big to the point where it’s just boring

[charred gust]

like looting i can understand

[harsh tree]

Like you won’t be zooming across the map on your horse

Like AC odyssey

[leaden orchid]

AC Odyssey is another game I struggled with

[hollow vector]

i could literally walk back to perth and id get that done faster then a follow mission in rdr2

[harsh tree]

The game wants you to take things slow and consume the world

[harsh tree]

Terik doesn’t listen to the story confirmed

[leaden orchid]

After 19 hours I gave up because I became overwhelmed with how much you could do there

[hollow vector]

terik did not play rdr2 confirmed

[leaden orchid]

But the problem is I didn't always find the many activities engaging or rewarding

[harsh tree]

Good choice, 75% of the quests are fetch quests

[steel scaffold]

Idk not playing RDR1 and 2 because it seems slow is kinda crazy. Those two games should be a must play for any gamer

[harsh tree]

“Hey go here and get this thing I lost and I’ll give you some gold”

[charred gust]

yeah but thats part of the game's charm, like if you want a fast paced game go play mw2

[harsh tree]

Yes I agree

[leaden orchid]

Would you say the same for Witcher 3 and GTAV?

Because I just couldn't get into those games no matter how hard I tried

Especially GTA

[harsh tree]

I like driving in gta

That’s super fast paced

[hollow vector]

im still very suprised by this

have you tried bully?

[harsh tree]

Swerving through lanes while getting chased by the cops is like a gta staple

[leaden orchid]

I've played through the story at least a dozen times and always got bored and stopped around just after the merryweather heist

[leaden orchid]

no

[harsh tree]

I think Aussie would hate bully

[charred gust]

if i had to choose 2 GTA games to keep i'd pick san andreas and 4, 5 was still a decent game but the map wasn't it for me

[hollow vector]

la noire?

[harsh tree]

Literally take gta but then make yourself a child doing kid stuff

Riding a bike, doing pranks and getting into brawls

[steel scaffold]

I can understand witcher 3 because a lot of people cant play that game no matter how hard they try but to me any gta game is a must play. But hey some people just cant play those games

[leaden orchid]

Got bored of that but at least I played it

I was really young then so not so familiar with how it felt

[charred gust]

LA Noire is a gem

[hollow vector]

yeah you defintely need to be a little older to fully grasp that game i think

[leaden orchid]

I actually probably liked LA Noire the most

[charred gust]

rockstar are like sucker punch when it comes to not missing regardless of what they try

[leaden orchid]

Despite being like 11 or 12 and played it when it first came out I found it engaging but I was too young and dumb

[harsh tree]

Rockstar doesn’t try making games for people who don’t like their games

That’s why they’re special

[steel scaffold]

Literally

[charred gust]

exactly

[leaden orchid]

I agree with NakeyJakey's video about Rockstar's game design

Which is why their games are just not for me

[charred gust]

i wish more devs were like that, do what you wanna do and what you're good at, stop trying to appeal everyone because the majority are normies who don't even know how to appreciate good games

[steel scaffold]

Remembing that time when gta 6 leaked and people were complaining about unfinished gameplay and graphics

[leaden orchid]

Actual dumbasses who complained about that

[harsh tree]

When gameplay from 3 years ago doesn’t look like rdr2 😡

[charred gust]

people complaining about how it was shown on a ps4 devkit

[harsh tree]

Yeah I’m worried gta will stop being a parody on American culture

And just become the new saints row

“Hey fellow kids!”

[hollow vector]

the new saints row looked so fucking dogshit

[harsh tree]

“We are also hip and woke!”

“Down with the system grrr!”

[steel scaffold]

Have you heard the leaked dialogue? Doesn’t seem woke to me lol

[leaden orchid]

The only thing I know about Saints Row is that it's like GTA on crack, with dildo weapons and aliens

[harsh tree]

It wasn’t always like that

Saints row used to be much more grounded

Saints row was like gta lite

Now it’s something else

Like if they made the craziest parts of gta online into a full game

[leaden orchid]

GTA Online for 5 was the only thing that kept me playing, and even then it was only with friends

[harsh tree]

Especially after the woke brigade started cracking down on games, even the gta 3, San Andreas and vice city remasters removed tons of jokes that the devs deemed offensive

[manic hill]

@wet sphinx got 🎁 Present!

[leaden orchid]

[steel scaffold]

LOL yeah true

[charred gust]

the woke brigade plays 2 games

both of them are F2P

[harsh tree]

“This game that’s supposed to be completely vulgar and offend until it doesn’t offend anymore? Yeah let’s remove jokes from the game so we don’t get canceled.”

[charred gust]

its annoying how they're all wannabe gamers who end up ruining other franchises they'll literally never play

[harsh tree]

Gta online is a perfect example of cringe millennial humor replacing the parody

So much of the new dlc’s are just sex jokes and shit humor with no substance to it

Like it’s so obviously trying not to offend anyone

[charred gust]

like i'll use the new saints row as another example, if that game slipped through without them canceling it over being able to kill furries they proved how dumb they are

[charred gust]

i was playing that new update, the drug wars earlier

i played the first 2 missions and the characters were literally viners

that "being loud = funny" humor

[leaden orchid]

I remember watching an entire hour long video of Senator Armstrong as the president in Saints Row and was thoroughly entertained

[charred gust]

whooo i do drugs and i act like a tard i'm funky and cool, i hope whoever writes the content for GTAO has nothing to do with 6

[harsh tree]

They probably won’t

Gta online is meant purely for money making

Like Trevor from gta 5 would make headlines if he was made in a game from 2022

Bisexual racist cannibal with anger issues who tortured people

Word

[charred gust]

if elon truly wanted to be a chad he'd buy take two

and release manhunt 3

in all of its glory

[harsh tree]

Manhunt 3 could never happen

[stark oyster]

Sounds glorious

[stark oyster]

It would be censored everywhere

[charred gust]

manhunt 3 would get banned before it releases

[leaden orchid]

https://youtu.be/QRRVOnt5Lno

[charred gust]

you'd have to sign a paper to play that game

[stark oyster]

Gonna watch that later

[harsh tree]

I think manhunt 3 would literally only release in the US and a few other countries that don’t often censor video games lol

[charred gust]

imagine the graphics

[harsh tree]

Even then there’s a good chance it would be rated A for adult

[leaden orchid]

Trevor was one of the best parts of GTAV

[stark oyster]

Trevor is the best character

Plus his ability is god tier

[harsh tree]

I like Franklin and his character progression

All characters are good in their own ways though

[charred gust]

a guy the other day was wondering how they could get the uncensored dl2 in germany, i looked it up and they made it so that you cant cut people's limbs apparently

like its a fucking video game get over it

[harsh tree]

Franklin is just the most relatable character to the average player

[harsh tree]

When DL1 came out in Japan, the blood was green lol

They confirmed the harran virus came from aliens!!!!

[leaden orchid]

Yeah they all complemented each other

[charred gust]

what these idiots don't realize is that by trying to shield people from this sort of stuff you're creating these oversensitive snowflakes who have the same mental fortitude of a marshmallow

michael was my fav

[harsh tree]

They also all fit the different play styles of gamers

[charred gust]

he's that one guy who's been through it all and just doesn't give a shit anymore

especially with his marriage, he knows its falling apart and his wife cheats on him but he just doesnt care, he's done with everything

[harsh tree]

I’m kind of disappointed gta 6 will have two characters though

I want another gta 4 kind of story

[leaden orchid]

forsenCD

[harsh tree]

Yeah true

[charred gust]

why are people trying to complain about GTA 6 being woke when it's already woke by including a female character

[harsh tree]

Woman?!?!?!?!

WHAT THE FRICK

GRERRR

[leaden orchid]

Preorder cancelled

Reason: Woman

[harsh tree]

SO TRUE I AM TOTALLY NOT A CLOSETED HOMOSEXUAL

I have a fairly controversial opinion

John from rdr is a better character then Arthur

[charred gust]

like i'm not sorry to the feminazis who are gonna try to use that as a standard but in a game like GTA i just feel like given how long the franchise has been going on the fact that they're just now doing it just proves what everyone's talking about with them trying to appeal to the sjw agenda

[harsh tree]

I will fist fight anyone regarding this topic

The entire story of both rdr games are about John anyways

Redemption meaning johns redemption

And lesser so, Arthur’s redemption

[charred gust]

i like them both but i gotta go with arthur tbh

john was great in 1 but he felt like just a guy, arthur was THE guy

[harsh tree]

John in 1 felt like a dad trying to get his kid back

[charred gust]

like john for me felt like he was just there playing a role in a play, arthur made his own path

[harsh tree]

Nah Arthur’s fate was sealed from the start

John doomed himself because of what he did in the end of 2

[charred gust]

even more when you play 2 and you realize what happened leading up to 1, he was just a pawn in the game and did nothing to change it

unlike arthur did

[harsh tree]

One of the many themes of rdr2 is the inevitability of what will happen to Arthur

In a video game sense the homestead is close to black water but in the story it’s framed to be a few hours away

[charred gust]

yeah but because of reasons he literally cannot change, yet he still didn't choose the easy way out, john literally let the system win

[manic hill]

@wet sphinx got 🎁 Present!

[harsh tree]

John couldn’t fight the system

That’s a theme of rdr1

The twilight age of the Wild West

[charred gust]

he could've tried, but he didn't and thats why i put arthur above him

[harsh tree]

He did try

Several times in the story

He constantly fought philosophically against the government

The main them of rdr1 is the inevitability of Johns fate

Very similar to how rdr2 is

Both of their paths were already set after a decision they made

They could only redeem themselves emotionally to the ones they cared about

Arthur saved John and John saved jack

[charred gust]

like looking back at the events of the first game he walked into it, did absolutely no effort to try and find out where jack and abigail were while at the same time creating a rebellion of his own, the way he goes down is a result of him being the gov's good little boy that they use for their own benefit then dispose of afterwards

[harsh tree]

Arthur also did absolutely nothing in that sense lol

All he did was try to keep the ones he cared about in the game alive

[charred gust]

he could've went down swinging and in multiple times he realizes how the gov isn't gonna do anything to abigail and jack regardless, yet he still insists on holding on to that hope he'll survive when its all said and done

[harsh tree]

Arthur understood from the very start that his cause was doomed and didn’t try to fight it

Dutch tried to fight it

Arthur understood it

[charred gust]

not really lmfao, he kicked out strauss, CHOSE to not sacrifice john, he didn't take the easy way out like i said and hide behind "but i'm a dead man i need all the help i can get"

[harsh tree]

That’s what I’m saying, he saved the ones he cared about

[charred gust]

it wasnt them tho

[harsh tree]

He stopped really caring about what happened to the gang

The same way John saved the ones he cared about, a rebellion wouldn’t have saved jack or Abigail

It would’ve just made them fugitives able to be executed

John took the ONLY path he could’ve taken to save his family

Dutch says it perfectly by saying they’ll just find another person to kill, John knew this would happen but he at least got jack and Abigail out it before his time was up

[charred gust]

the problem with this take is when you find out where they've been the entire time, considering the time and how the game is set at the peak of the mexican revolution he could've literally grabbed them, went there with what was rest of the gang and actually lived

[harsh tree]

Everyone who took part in the Mexican revolution was screwed over lol

I had family that fought in that war

There were absolutely no winners

[charred gust]

like throughout RDR1 you don't feel like john is making his own decisions, he's just following orders and hoping he'll get to live at the end, which is why i personally didn't find the ending that surprising back then, it was to be expected considering the scumbags of the gov

[harsh tree]

What you’re suggesting is just extremely unrealistic to johns situation

Arthur and John took the only path laid out to them

They took it honorably but the end result would stay the same

They both end up dead

[charred gust]

also the payback epilogue was satisfying but not nearly as much as micah's was, because at that point it's like one of those moments in movies where the protagonist is standing next to the man who ruined their life and they don't wanna kill them, it just feels worthless

[stark oyster]

They're reducing the jokes so they're less... offensive. I'm not pre-ordering it

[charred gust]

arthur didn't tho thats what im saying, he chose his own path

[harsh tree]

Jacks revenge isn’t ever finished upon, due to the themes of RDR overall I’d imagine Jack also doesn’t live a good life after killing Ross

The main themes of rdr are

Some fates are inevitable and how you go out is up to you

Revenge is a fools game

Even red dead revolver has a lot of similar themes

Revenge is a fools game

[charred gust]

RDR3 type shit

[harsh tree]

That’s why I heavily dislike when people suggest that jack made it out and lived a good life

Everything he did after John died was in opposition to what the games frame as being good

There just isn’t a happy ending to the vanderline gang

[harsh tree]

He chose his path within the laid out fate he had ahead of him, so did John.

John could’ve ran away, let his family die or even break them out and take them somewhere

His past would’ve caught up to him regardless

His chose to cooperate with the government and not seal the fate of his son to just becoming a fugitive

John chose the most morally correct option that he had

[charred gust]

yeah which is why i personally put arthur above him, to me he's just a much more relatable character

[harsh tree]

It’s also kind of funny that people who play rdr1 and 2 leave with the idea that the vanderline gang were somehow the good guys and that the Pinkertons were evil lol

[charred gust]

the point i'm trying to make is if arthur walked in john's shoes he would've agreed to cooperate with micah and put down their beef, micah still would've shot him in the back because he's a greasy snake

same way the government screwed john after he cooperated with them

[harsh tree]

John killed Micah, he directly went against what Arthur wanted, I don’t understand how John didn’t make his own path

[charred gust]

you don't make deals with scumbags and you don't help them because the end result is always gonna be the same, so you take any other path

[harsh tree]

Any other path for John would’ve meant the same fate regardless

There’s a certain inevitability to his story

That’s talked about constantly in secret ways in both games

Her kids live through Jim Crow

I’d say that’s pretty shit

[charred gust]

that was because john got a tip of micah's whereabouts, up to that point he was just living his life, and regardless of this fact arthur just didn't want a confrontation after all he's sacrificed ie why he's such a goated character, he directed john's path which adds to what i was saying about how he felt like he was playing a role

[charred gust]

the god / death figure is one of gaming's best side quests

like he's the best representation of that entity in any video game period because of how subtly and at the same time in your face they do it

[harsh tree]

John was also playing a role in his own life, he could’ve gone against the government and continue to be hateful, he’d just end up like bill or Javier, he chose to go out with some sort of dignity and show his son that he has a good chance of living a good life away from revenge and away from the gang. Jack obviously didn’t listen.

John serves as a catalyst for the themes of rdr

That’s why I consider him the better of the two characters

[charred gust]

the games are down to earth and as real as they get but then they hit you with that "but how does this guy know?", which is what life's all about at the end of the day especially considering the game's time period, people still believed in superstition which is why its great

[harsh tree]

Instead he became a gunslinger in the twilight age of the Wild West

He probably doesn’t have a good fate and that fits perfectly with the themes of both games

It’s not a happy ending but it stays true to what the writers wanted

It would also just be super cheap

People suggest an rdr3 with Dutch or something but what’s the purpose

The story that rockstar wanted to tell is completely over

The redemption story is finished perfectly

I would want another red dead game but not another redemption game

Exactly

[somber valve]

had to, have a good one fellas

[harsh tree]

Rdr1 set up rdr2 perfectly by talking about johns involvement in the gang and making his leaving the gang a big event, both games are about big events in johns life

[somber valve]

https://tenor.com/view/nerd-emoji-nerd-meme-radar-gif-26497624

[harsh tree]

That’s why we don’t play the few years that John was just a farmer lol

i get what you're saying with how the theme of the games is the inevitability of the games, however i see it differently, RDR1 is about playing along and hoping something different will happen, 2 is about realizing what's gonna happen and choosing to make a change in whatever way you can up to that point, it's not about the ending as much as it is about what you can do up to the point of the ending, which is i consider arthur to be my better character, he knew he was dying but he didn't care, he just unconditionally wanted to help people as much as he could, it's like imagine if you could see the grim reaper waiting for you in the distance and you know at a certain date he'll call you, arthur forgot about him and just lived his life the way he wanted, john couldn't wait to get to that point just to find out whether he'll pass or not, and he didn't

John didn’t hope for a different outcome though, all he was trying to do was save his family and leave his life with some sort of dignity

I just have always gathered that both games are ultimately about John

[harsh tree]

And the themes they show revolve around John almost entirely

[charred gust]

they are about john, arthur was just the unexpected surprise we got

[shrewd sparrow]

That's not fair or true... A game like that doesn't come out of a single man

[leaden orchid]

What if it did

[harsh tree]

Facts, both will go down as some of the best video game characters of all time

[charred gust]

it's like when the spin off is actually goated

[shrewd sparrow]

Ah yes let's take credit from all the hard passionate workers at rockstar and give it all to Dan houser

[harsh tree]

It’s fair to say that one man can heavily impact the direction of a game though

[leaden orchid]

Yes

[harsh tree]

Almost all the good higher ups I guess

[shrewd sparrow]

It was just as bad in 2018

[harsh tree]

They still have some of the best devs in the industry

[shrewd sparrow]

When RDR2 was released

What's your point

[harsh tree]

Rdr2 started development in 2010 though lol

Rockstar was still in their golden age

[manic hill]

@wet sphinx got 🎁 Present!

[leaden orchid]

[shrewd sparrow]

They make great singleplayer games, and they will continue without Dan houser, without Leslie benzies, etc

[harsh tree]

We’ll see I guess

[shrewd sparrow]

You can attribute all the accomplishments to one guy

[harsh tree]

Just don’t be surprised if gta 6 doesn’t have the same charm the other gta games had

[charred gust]

its about the direction of the game, especially considering how much of an impact sam and dean had on GTA 3, at that point they were literally one of the people working on the game, so you know they're not one of those corporate "alright nerds show me what you made"

when you have THAT type of person yes you're right to be worried that they're no longer around

[leaden orchid]

A project lead is very crucial to a project

It just really depends from project to project tho

[shrewd sparrow]

Like what? Their last release was RDR2, a critically acclaimed masterpiece. Before that? GTAV, a critically acclaimed masterpiece? Before that GTA4, a critically acclai- I assume you understand this repitition, great games come out of rockstar, period.

Definitive trilogy was made by a mobile studio so I don't wanna hear that bs

[charred gust]

if they can get people who have that same love and passion as the old guys did if not more (because let's face it fresh youngblood is often better just because of how hungry it is even if you have old goats), then it's a gg, if they get a clown who's just looking for a paycheck it's a problem

[shrewd sparrow]

How long do you think they've been working on it? I'm certain his direction is still in gta6

[harsh tree]

But ignoring that the creative leads who defined the way rockstar made games (especially gta) is just dumb, it’s not stupid to expect that things will change due to them leaving and new folks who probably don’t have an extremely deep understanding of the ip coming in an replacing them

[shrewd sparrow]

What? Rockstar games always have basic gameplay... The stories, world, and sandboxes are always what make the game what they are

[charred gust]

it's also about the longterm view for the franchise, even if we assume the plot for 6 is already done what's next ? hell i'll use my point from earlier the recent gtao update proves the shitshow of a state their writing's in rn

[shrewd sparrow]

I'm not doing that though. I'm saying that the games aren't gonna suffer with Dan houser gone

[charred gust]

the dr dre expansion was okay, acceptable at best but it's still nowhere near peak rockstar writing

[harsh tree]

Im literally just worried for the comedic nature of gta, gameplay will be exactly what you’d expect but the parody that gta does of American culture has a good chance of being lost

[shrewd sparrow]

Oh so what the fucking doomsday heist was good writing? A dlc that was made when most of the important leads were still at the company

[leaden orchid]

https://tenor.com/view/venom-tom-hardy-screaming-gif-11035878

[shrewd sparrow]

Ah yes teaming up with super ai to stop the world from ending, peak rockstar writing

[harsh tree]

It had far better writing than the recent dlc’s lol.

[shrewd sparrow]

Pretty sure those guys have very little to do with the online stuff anyway

[harsh tree]

Jpik so you know how gta is basically built upon being a crude and offensive parody of America as a whole?

Our whole point is that the leads who made that a thing leaving isn’t a good thing

It might have 0 affect whatsoever

But there’s a chance that it could affect the game a lot

Literally all we’re saying

[charred gust]

none of the GTAO content was at that level, the only thing that came close were the RDO main missions as short as they were

the point is if GTAO's content especially the recent drug wars update is to be taken as the standard now rockstar's fucked

[leaden orchid]

How dare you insult the best piece of fiction storytelling that has ever existed

[stark oyster]

RDO was so much fun

[harsh tree]

Aussie gets it

This is why he’s techland ceo

[stark oyster]

Mr. Techland himself

[harsh tree]

Exactly

That last name isn’t long enough to be polish

Include 18 more w’s and z’s

[charred gust]

Dr Dre was the only acceptable non play just to play and have brainless fun they made and that was half because its dre and half because they brought back lamar and actually had somewhat of a decent run going with that whole gig of him and franklin being back together

[shrewd sparrow]

1.) Yes but we don't have any way to tell how that's effected the company until we get a new singleplayer game after gta6

2.) I haven't heard of this, enlighten me with some examples please?

3.) subjective take, I agree, but hundreds of thousands of players don't as the game is clearly still raking in enough cash for them to be still adding to it

4.) They've gotten a lot better about it over the last year. The last 2 updates have had like multiple pages worth of QOL changes and community feedback changes

[charred gust]

but luchador wrestling ring thats addicted to drugs with a leader who's straight out of vine ?

fuck outta here with that garbage

[harsh tree]

Im just praying to god that rockstar don’t tone down the offensive humor for gta 6

If they cave to twitter demands that’ll officially mark the end of crude parody

[shrewd sparrow]

Also I wanna mention that not releasing gta6 is not them "not listening to fans"

[stark oyster]

Twitter

[shrewd sparrow]

That shit is stupid and immature. Don't beg for games to be released unless your content with Cyberpunk on launch day ps4

[honest crane]

Speaking of 2. It's about offensive jokes from the game that Rockstar removed because of the stupid sensitive community such as LGBTQ

[harsh tree]

As for 2 they’ve taken out jokes and offensive stuff from the older games with their remasters

[honest crane]

💀

[harsh tree]

I know that technologically and gameplay wise, gta is safe, I just can’t say the same for the humor and tone of the game

[leaden orchid]

Me not being able to play early with my review copy because the game crashed every time I tried creating a new save.

[honest crane]

[harsh tree]

Im scared it’ll just turn into watch dogs 2 or saints row with their “hello fellow kids” humor

[charred gust]

i remember when i was in a lobby with someone called trans rights in destiny 2 and i used the "laughs at" emoji, good times

[shrewd sparrow]

Imagine changing your own art to fit someone else's narrative

That's crazy

Let them get offended, that's the whole point

[harsh tree]

Game execs don’t hold the same views most of the time

Especially with how much power online mobs have been given over recent years

[shrewd sparrow]

White people ruin everything no cap

Leave it to a white person to get offended on behalf of a black person and demand it be changed

[harsh tree]

Waaaa I’m offended on someone else’s behalf waaaa

They also don’t understand that more often than not, the offensive stuff in gta is in there to make fun of the people who hold these offensive views

It makes fun of everything and everyone

[stark oyster]

Someone replaces the pride flag into an American flag and Nexus lost their shit

[harsh tree]

It’s not like gta is some sort of monolith of hate

It hates hate by using jokes

[stark oyster]

Never have been sarge.

[harsh tree]

But people who don’t even fucking play these games don’t understand that

[charred gust]

Leave it to a white person living in the most peaceful neighborhood in america to get offended on behalf of the african slaves whom they swear they have 5% of their DNA thus allowing them to use the N word

[somber valve]

"surely"

[charred gust]

right, like bro stop fucking pushing smoke up the LGBTQ+ community's ass

supporting someone =/= being like pls believe me bro i support you

[shrewd sparrow]

See I'm white and have lived in very white trash circumstances in my life but when i enter the town of sandy shores my first thought is not "we'eee my white culture is being appropriated" I think it's funny.

Same way I think the satire against blacks, Asians, corporate scumbags, police, fucking paramedics, civilians, etc is funny

[charred gust]

it's like those white people who swear they're not racist

[shrewd sparrow]

GTA should pull no punches

Everyone is meant to be a target

[harsh tree]

Exactly

[stark oyster]

As they refuse to cover most

[manic hill]

Rockstar

[charred gust]

they're the same people who have been trying to cancel cartoons like family guy forever, it's just that these days you can gather up thousands of those tards and companies start shitting their pants

No one is off limits when it comes to being made fun of, the issue is that people who don’t play the games can often dictate the direction these games take

[shrewd sparrow]

Oh wait I do remember one thing that got censored in GTA 5

[harsh tree]

“Hey this game I don’t understand and don’t play has something that I think is offensive to someone somewhere, you guys should remove that immediately.”

[somber valve]

"hold on this whole operation was your idea"

god i hate twitter

[shrewd sparrow]

When they made the e&e edition they removed the transgender people who would stand outside cockatoos (that club building opposite the downtown lsc)

[harsh tree]

They recently added a radio station with Ron and it’s actually hilarious

Like complete paranoid schizophrenic fever dream shit

[charred gust]

andrew tate as much of a tard as he is but i'd rather have him and his toxic masculinity than oversensitive lgbtq snowflakes, cuz then atleast they wouldn't ruin media for the rest of us, you'd just filter them out for being the tards you avoid

[harsh tree]

Did they remove the transgender stripper too?

[charred gust]

like if a minority is dumb but they hold no real power you can just pretend they don't exist

[somber valve]

honestly bro tate was right like 80% of the time

[harsh tree]

Im assuming they removed them because you could kill them

But you could also kill the stripper

[shrewd sparrow]

Tates a dumbass some things he says are right but their are coated in misogyny and hatred. Somehow he garnered so much attention from children which is why I think he deserves his bans. He is polluting children's minds online

Parents fault for not monitoring what their kid is watching? Very much so, but in the case of Tate he knew what he was doing and what audience he was manipulating, and that's truly disgusting.

i feel like alot of devs miss the entire point of antagonists with this, you got so much potential on how to make someone who by today's standards can be the most cancelable mf to ever exist in a video game but at the same time dodge that by having you kill him, imagine a misogynistic micah as the main antagonist, someone like sal marcano but instead of hating blacks he hates women

[somber valve]

he got the idea

[shrewd sparrow]

Body dysmorphia is a mental illness that has now become offensive to diagnose and treat

When does it stop? When does it become offensive to treat a schizophrenic? Or a clinical psychopath?

[stark oyster]

What

You trolling bro

?

That's just motivation

Being fat is not healthy

Simple as that

Having some fat is fine

[shrewd sparrow]

I knew someone who had it and they were luckily able to get help through therapy and anti depressants

[stark oyster]

But having less muscle than fat is... not good

[somber valve]

nikado avacado

[shrewd sparrow]

I can't imagine their parents getting offended and letting them make bad choices

Like being put on testosterone

[somber valve]

[stark oyster]

Gravitational force and all

[shrewd sparrow]

If u need motivation to gym watch a nikacado video

If you can sit through even the first 5 minutes without wanting to get up and do 5 pushups I don't understand you

Play a game

Every bite he takes do 1 pushup

[somber valve]

no need for that

give me a banger music and we're set

[manic hill]

[lunar snow]

Or the oompaville collabs with him

[somber valve]

you remind me that i can't charge my phone in my room

[shrewd sparrow]

Then you probably don't need the motivation

[charred gust]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-tiggle-fat-fatcat-chonk-gif-20269238

[shrewd sparrow]

You are in shape enough to do 25 pushups

You are probably pretty healthy

[leaden orchid]

You wanna know a fun fact

[somber valve]

no stfu

[vital vector]

lol

[somber valve]

[leaden orchid]

Someone (who is now banned) sent a completely naked pic of Nikocado to modmail

[shrewd sparrow]

Alright can I see

[lunar snow]

The 1996 version of duke nukem forever when it was under 3d realms surfaced 2 hours ago

[shrewd sparrow]

How do I become mod

[somber valve]

its fucking beyond me that people bought his only fans

like

[leaden orchid]

I forgot he had a fucking OnlyFans

[somber valve]

[shrewd sparrow]

Where can I find the pic

Can you send it?

[somber valve]

do you want to know?

[vital vector]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/836351244691439677/1051098658038370394/caption.gif

[leaden orchid]

I think I pinned it in one admin channel because CREX was crying that he saw it

[stark oyster]

Poor mod mail bro... always misused

[somber valve]

no you're lying

[leaden orchid]

That’s like 80% of modmail tbh

[stark oyster]

I accidently messaged the mod mail a picture of crex once

[upbeat whale]

lmao

[shrewd sparrow]

@leaden orchid would it be annoying to send a nice message like "hope your having a good day" etc

[stark oyster]

I got scared and deleted it but it went through anyways

[manic hill]

@somber valve got 🎁 Present!

[leaden orchid]

Either people thinking we’re Techland, start shitposting or telling the bot to stfu from the welcome message

[somber valve]

honestly how does mod mail work

i wanna know

[leaden orchid]

It’s fine but we’re prob gonna ignore it and archive it

[lunar snow]

Ticket system

[stark oyster]

Messaging it sends it to a channel

[somber valve]

[shrewd sparrow]

I LOVE AMERICA

[somber valve]

aussie you're invisible btw

[upbeat whale]

it would be funny to have the bot respond with "stfu" when people tell it to stfu

[leaden orchid]

DM the bot - bot creates new thread (or an existing one if there was a previous message) - posts message from user there.

We can respond with a number of like 6 or so canned responses or type in ourselves

Whatever we say gets sent to the user

[leaden orchid]

Mobile moment

What about now

[stark oyster]

Retro responded to me when I sent the crex image

[somber valve]

i found my self listening to hozier perfoming blood upon the snow at least once a day

[somber valve]

[shrewd sparrow]

Except me

I don't have a pug

[leaden orchid]

Sometimes we do if it’s someone who we know and they’re shitposting

[stark oyster]

Back to 420

[lunar snow]

She ain’t even eaten beans and she’s like a machine gun

[somber valve]

aussie, do you think there will be more god of war's?

[manic hill]

@upbeat whale got 🎁 Present!

[leaden orchid]

It’s funny, someone DM’d the bot this recently

[leaden orchid]

Probably

It’s PlayStation’s lead franchise

[somber valve]

as long they keep making god of war's i know i wont be dying

[shrewd sparrow]

Lmaoooooooool

[vital vector]

(We gave him the crafting materials and the weapon he wanted)

[leaden orchid]

🙏

[shrewd sparrow]

Dying Light is so easy

[somber valve]

i grew up with it and i can't die without knowing i didn't play one

[stark oyster]

"Please give me an assload of weapons so I can bypass all progression and just cheese the game. "

[lunar snow]

Should ask techland to add a pug designed gun to dl2 that acts like a machine gun that runs on farts

[somber valve]

i still have to play gow ascension

[stark oyster]

Rare mod team W

[somber valve]

even if it "bad" i will play it

[shrewd sparrow]

I gave my friend so much shit and he beat the game in like 6 hours

[somber valve]

honestly i will say gow is one of the best game franchises

[stark oyster]

[somber valve]

[stark oyster]

Elder Scrolls

[shrewd sparrow]

Commonly accepted good thing is good

[stark oyster]

No reboots only a fuckton of Skyrim releases

[somber valve]

[lunar snow]

I think with the recent update/port for the switch version it’s up to 8 or 9 versions of the game

[manic hill]

@upbeat whale got 🎁 Present!

[stark oyster]

Skyrim, Skyrim VR, Skyrim legendary edition, Skyrim special edition, Skyrim on the Alexa (It's real), Skyrim on the Switch, and Skyrim Anniversary edition.

[somber valve]

if ragnarok comes to pc i will buy it

[lunar snow]

Alexa Skyrim is fun

[somber valve]

honestly bro if any other god of war came to pc i would buy them all

no matter

also waiting on outlast trials

is there anything on it?

[lunar snow]

Closed betas are going on still

[stark oyster]

It looked so fun

Ptak had a ton of funny clips

[somber valve]

??

[lunar snow]

Some influencers got into private closed betas

[somber valve]

GOD DAMMIT

[lunar snow]

From the footage I’ve seen it’s still mid stages of development

[somber valve]

i forced my self to play for the like 10k coins outfit and turns out you dont keep content from the beta

WACK

i would how outlast trials could work competitively

because honestly i'd do it

[stark oyster]

Battle Royale

Every man for themselves

[somber valve]

i had more in mind what team could do the objective faster

[stark oyster]

That's more cooperative than competitive

[somber valve]

well so does for any fps game?

[lunar snow]

Dead by daylight could use some competition considering the last 1 v 4 games predator hunting grounds and evil dead are dead in the water

[somber valve]

dbd could work

if it worked properly
