it's pretty much a giant modpack with graphics and stuff

idk if its called redux

but its the "irl graphics soyjak point" from youtube videos

[onyx vigil]

oh okay I kinda just want the console version mods for the pc version while running at 60 fps without any issue

oh ok

but even trying to get 60 fps on high settings without any issue with HD mods, causes fucking issues, I can’t even get trough the intro cutscene without the game crashing

Rockstar why do you have to have such shitty pc ports for fuck sakes

[static axle]

i think it was nve plus some enb etc

[onyx vigil]

I don’t use enb anymore since it sucks using it with fallout

and it causes issues

[static axle]

what you trying to mod into gta4

[slim magnet]

gta 4's pc port is just horrendous

like gahdaym

[quiet yew]

I still remember having to turn off core 0 for the game to not crash in the final mission

[uneven sapphire]

i highkey dont know what to play

[static axle]

i mean it wasnt as bad as arkham knight back in the day. i think. i played gta 4 on xbox and later just bought for pc

[onyx vigil]

Fix the handling, add first person mode, but basically just add console things and liberty tweaks and other stuff so it functions a lot better and have a way to mod the game without having to the replace the games files

[static axle]

but it did have live for games tho

[quiet yew]

handling is fine

[static axle]

best fucking thing to ever exist

[quiet yew]

and I will die on that hill

[slim magnet]

fix the handling

[static axle]

handling is the best part imo in gta 4

[onyx vigil]

The driving sucks major fucking ass

[static axle]

hecking land boats

[onyx vigil]

I can’t stand the car sliding like I am driving on ice

[static axle]

dukes leans enough to fit another dukes under it

[quiet yew]

why? because tires don't have infinite grip and the cars actually have some weight to them?

[pliant chasm]

it's way more satisfying

[static axle]

it not gta 5 grippy drive on walls

[opal star]

Mhm.

[onyx vigil]

No it means basically every time I try to turn it slides and it takes 5 years to fucking brake in 40 miles per hour

that is what I have an issue with

[pliant chasm]

not to be a hipster but i don't like driving in 5

[quiet yew]

I say skill issue

12 year old me could do it
you can do it just fine too

[onyx vigil]

I say a broken unrealistic and not even fun driving controls

[slim magnet]

i'm sure the only handling mods for gta 4 overcompensate the fuck towards the other direction

[onyx vigil]

using mods fixes about 60 - 70% of the issue with the driving controls

[slim magnet]

like i can't not see a "realistic handling overhaul" mod not being as arcade and stiff as gta 5

[static axle]

it's not fun. its not bad but its not fun

[onyx vigil]

so now it’s bearable

[static axle]

well modded fivem is but not vanilla

[onyx vigil]

unlike vanilla 4 which is just horrible

[weary heart]

The humble kitted minivan that is able to climb up Mt chilliad at a full 90 degree angle

[static axle]

[onyx vigil]

can’t even turn when fast or normally without the gun sliding even when braking the car slides

[static axle]

gta 5 with controller be like , just barely press gas and it'll climb vertical surface

[pliant chasm]

filtered by new york driving

[static axle]

add of road tires and it'll go anywhere

[pliant chasm]

take yo weak ass back to la

[onyx vigil]

at least the driving controls aka handling is tolerable in 5

[quiet yew]

driving controls don't mean handling

[onyx vigil]

it’s not the best but it’s a lot more fun than in 4

[static axle]

there you have it folks

[opal star]

You can literally take 90 degree turns at 150 mph in online.

[static axle]

yuuuup

[slim magnet]

driving in 5 is fun because of the tricks you can do like mid drives and brake boosting and all that

[pliant chasm]

nah 4 is fun
speeding knowing that crashing can kill you on the spot

[slim magnet]

shit just elevates the experience

[onyx vigil]

Doesn’t the motorbikes suck ass in 4?

[quiet yew]

when traffic isn't running into you

[slim magnet]

it's just a completely different idea

[pliant chasm]

no lmao

[onyx vigil]

because the handling is dogshit?

[static axle]

4 is fine, other than over excaggarated leaning they have on some cars.

[rocky turtle]

[slim magnet]

can't really compare 4 to 5 in regards to handling

[pliant chasm]

i like my cars like my bitchs

weighty

[quiet yew]

slippery and unstable

[static axle]

[weary heart]

As a former NY resident who escaped the fires of that hellish pit that not even Dante's inferno could compare to the agony and pure horror and suffering that comes with those lands that would break the sanity of any man into a fragile mess lost in a real of confusing thoughts, drugs, and probably STD's

My point is the driving is accurate because I got hit by a car in NYC before

[slim magnet]

all gtas before san andreas had dogshit handling

[quiet yew]

I wouldn't know

[pliant chasm]

well
im drivin heeeeee

[quiet yew]

I played Vice City for like two hours

[pliant chasm]

true

[static axle]

https://tenor.com/view/midnight-cowboy-dustin-hoffman-taxis-im-walking-here-gif-3400652

[opal star]

Yeah, fuck driving in NYC. It's the worst traffic on this planet.

[pliant chasm]

vc was fine

[onyx vigil]

Tbh maybe it’s my personal opinion but I can’t stand the car sliding when trying to turn any way or having 10 5 years when trying to brake it doesn’t feel realistic it just feels like I am driving on ice like seriously how much sliding does a car in real life? Because I can bet it does it less than it does in 4 but again maybe it’s just my personal opinion

[slim magnet]

tap left for 1 (one) singular frame and the car is looking backwards

get nicked by a motorbike and you're sent into the stratosphere

[pliant chasm]

3 and vc at least were tolerable

[onyx vigil]

at least in 5 turning actually turns the car and not slides

[pliant chasm]

gta sa was good

[quiet yew]

you do you but don't call realism please

just don't

[blazing maple]

sounds like my dream woman

[pliant chasm]

but then the pc version molested it

[static axle]

i mean sure it does less sliding but also it aint stopping on a dime irl either

[onyx vigil]

4 is not realistic either is 5

[pliant chasm]

4 is more realistic than 5 if you wanna go that route

[onyx vigil]

I agree tough 5 isn’t really very much realistic

[slim magnet]

have you tried regular braking on curves or slowing down instead of taking them at high speeds or using handbrake on everything

[static axle]

but 4 is lightyears more fun driving wise than 5 is

[opal star]

Dude, if you want realism pop a can of coke and play iRacing.

[weary heart]

Funny enough NY isn't primarily filled with Italians anymore.
Now it's Spanish people and also a LOT of Jewish people (not saying they're bad but they are a big presence there)

[quiet yew]

no no no
not iRacing
the tyres have a weird slip angle man
it's totally not realistic at all
I never drove a racecar in my life
but trust bro

[onyx vigil]

Maybe you can make an argument that 4 is more realistic which I ain’t going that road however I will say in personal opinion I would rather deal with 3 or 5 driving since they are more fun and it doesn’t feel like you are driving on ice making turning and brakes into a nightmare

[rocky turtle]

[onyx vigil]

and btw driving for VC on the ps2 is iust

[static axle]

the question is are you using a controller or naah

[pliant chasm]

crazy take

[onyx vigil]

I can tell you it brakes much more faster than it does in 4

[onyx vigil]

Even using controller or keyboard the driving is still just shit in my opinion

it generally makes playing 4 not as fun as it could be

[pliant chasm]

euphoria physics

[rocky turtle]

sounds easy right?

[pliant chasm]

[onyx vigil]

which as I said before with mods or own modification about 60 - 70% of the vanilla game I would have a problem with is just gone and it improves the game greatly

[static axle]

they went hard with euphoria

i mean 5 has it but only for ragdolls

[pliant chasm]

and the game ran like shit to this day

[onyx vigil]

I will die on that hill that gta 4 euphoria physics is superior to gta 5

[pliant chasm]

but i'll take it

[pliant chasm]

not really a hot take everyone agrees on that

[onyx vigil]

Okay eh driving in vice city on the ps2 is better than San Andreas and 3

[static axle]

4's physics were set to 11. 5 only uses them for ragdolling and are set to like 6

[pliant chasm]

now that is an insane take

san andreas has the best driving of the 3 ogs and it's not close

[static axle]

vice city couldnt even handle the speed sabre turbo had

[onyx vigil]

homie play vice city on the ps2 and use the alternative driving controls that lets you accelerate using the right stick

[pliant chasm]

i did infact play vice city on the ps2

[slim magnet]

WHAT

[onyx vigil]

it’s just

[static axle]

[quiet yew]

I'd rather play GT at that point

[sour rivet]

Grand theft

[quiet yew]

if I had a PS

[quiet yew]

Great Tit

[onyx vigil]

Literally try it out it’s just magnificent

[pliant chasm]

i did years ago

[sour rivet]

Using a joystick as an accelerator sounds like ass

[pliant chasm]

and it was until i played gta sa

[slim magnet]

bro could just say he prefers infinite grip and traction to anything else to stop being made fun

[onyx vigil]

No it feels great

[pliant chasm]

mh1 type shit

[sour rivet]

What if I wanna look around

Smh

[quiet yew]

yeah that's kinda what I pointed out at the beginning

[slim magnet]

you can't look around in vice city

[onyx vigil]

no I would rather just want semi realistic driving controls than driving controls that makes it so you slide when you try to turn

[slim magnet]

it wasn't a mechanic until san andreas

[sour rivet]

It's been a while since I played vc

[onyx vigil]

Well you can’t except with the shoulder buttons

[pliant chasm]

this is why it sucks now

[quiet yew]

bro
stop with the realism

PLEASE

[sour rivet]

MuH ReAlIsM

[pliant chasm]

you could look sideways like the driveby shit in san andreas

[worn echo]

friend got me to pick up arc again and I forgot how fucking fun it is

[onyx vigil]

okay but I want the car to feel somewhat real while fun

and controllable

[worn echo]

I agree but solely bc having more control feels better

[slim magnet]

okay realismo bro take a 60° turn at 100kmh

[quiet yew]

in a stock street car with street tyres btw

[static axle]

i mean ps2 had pressure sensoring in the buttons just in case ya'll didnt know

[onyx vigil]

Okay why does it take like 6 cars in length using brake to stop the car?

[copper vapor]

how many times I killed a guy in MGS3 because I... squeezed too hard

[rocky turtle]

@carmine laurel

[quiet yew]

if you actually wanted semi-realistc driving, you'd play Mafia 1 or 2

[pliant chasm]

[blazing maple]

oh sweet there's a marathon refrence in warframe!

[pliant chasm]

pre prison mafia 2 driving

[static axle]

oh you tried to ads but shot them

[real aspen]

the ui reminds me of very early warframe

[quiet yew]

now THAT is fucking wild

[pliant chasm]

i do like it tho
just cause it feels insanely better after the time skip

[quiet yew]

yeah it feels like a reward after being assraped in prison

[onyx vigil]

I said before semi realistic aka half realistic half fun while being controllable that’s it, gta 4 for me isn’t that because as I said before the sliding and the awful brake on the cars but again it’s my own opinion

[pliant chasm]

should replay mafia 2

[onyx vigil]

I should play the og mafia 1

[quiet yew]

[onyx vigil]

and not the definitive edition

[pliant chasm]

played the remake and didn't like it

[quiet yew]

it's uhh

alright?

[onyx vigil]

That’s a still image

[pliant chasm]

it was dogshit for me

[quiet yew]

the cutscenes are really good

[static axle]

you cant over wheelie manchez

[pliant chasm]

it started fine
but the rest is ass

it so uhhh idk what word to use

papery ?

[quiet yew]

the race was better in the OG

ngl

actual peak track

[static axle]

and it has 1kmh wheelie speed with controller.... aka you can almost be still in a wheelie

[pliant chasm]

you know that feeling when you grab a piece of paper and wave it around

[onyx vigil]

Wasn’t that an incredibly easy race that was overhated for being “too hard?”

[opal star]

https://tenor.com/view/dial-up-wifi-slow-gif-20053820

[pliant chasm]

try the saboteur if you like mafia 2

[quiet yew]

it's kind of a question of getting past the first corner without the AI fucking you up

[pliant chasm]

or gta

[quiet yew]

then you're homefree

[frank garnet]

i feel like my resume is too crowded and I needs to make space, currently its all 11 font Times new roman and I have some 3 engineering projects that take about 1/4 page

buying doesn't necessarily un-constitute piracy

I think you can use RTX Remix on it.

[pliant chasm]

it was pirated fallout on disk

[onyx vigil]

Is it a rom hack?

[quiet yew]

not that I give a shit

[onyx vigil]

So still piracy

[pliant meteor]

Damn looks so fine

[quiet yew]

[pliant chasm]

[quiet yew]

[onyx vigil]

I was born in 2007 and even I had internet

[quiet yew]

2007

[onyx vigil]

You're younger than my brother LMAO

[static axle]

[opal star]

Yeah that looks incredible.

[sour rivet]

Imagine not being born alongside San andreas

[copper vapor]

[quiet yew]

HUH

[quiet yew]

[pliant meteor]

[onyx vigil]

Oh fuck you

[pliant chasm]

how fast do you think it was

[sour rivet]

[quiet yew]

oh I'm gonna piss myself

[static axle]

most of us played games longer than he been out of the nutsack

[onyx vigil]

In the kilobytes

[pliant chasm]

why do you think floppy disks were still a thing

[sour rivet]

Bring em back

[verbal gate]

Imma be as sincere as possible, some places still don't have reliable access to the internet

[blazing maple]

I had 360 kilobite internet and had to wait 2 real life days of leaving my pc on to install gtaV

[static axle]

naah those jusr 3d printed save icons

[onyx vigil]

Because cd were not very much used as floppy disk and it was cheaper for floppy disks

[sour rivet]

Wow

[lucid latch]

What even is this?

[onyx vigil]

Fair

[arctic flicker]

https://youtu.be/ifzQV-VAB3M?si=moJSn1y5BdlLyVHR

[pliant chasm]

same
it ran like shit and had to uninstall

[copper vapor]

my first internet connection was a 33.6k dial-up modem
then in '99 upgraded to 256kbps DSL

[quiet yew]

as someone born in the early 2000s, we didn't have internet either until I was like 12

[onyx vigil]

I don’t know what my first internet connection was tbh

[copper vapor]

[verbal gate]

Because having a CD reader on a PC was so important back then that it was a huge selling pont

[quiet yew]

family just didn't see it as necessary

[blazing maple]

@onyx vigil trying to play GTAIV without subway surfers or family guy funny moments playing at the same time challenge: Impossible difficulty

[onyx vigil]

Not really

[quiet yew]

I remember the death of the CD
it was so sad

[verbal gate]

Even old folks who don't use CDs bought them just on the off chance

[quiet yew]

[static axle]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gpa_323MFKc mw doesnt look bad either

[verbal gate]

Yes it is, so many content relied on it

[onyx vigil]

Woah woah woah I wasn’t born yesterday so don’t group me in with gen alpha for fuck sakes

[sour rivet]

boring ass heist

[quiet yew]

EVERYTHING relied on it

[static axle]

but they need rtx card so imma still say redux is the better option for most

[onyx vigil]

You talking about cd or floppy disk?

[quiet yew]

non-online PC was basically useless without a CD drive

[sour rivet]

yes you were

[opal star]

I had to travel hundreds of miles on sled to get access to a computer in the 90s.

[sour rivet]

[opal star]

Lots of ghosting though.

[pliant meteor]

One of the earliest games I played as a kid Microsoft Fury 3

[sour rivet]

payday 3 killing floor 3
absolutely destroying their franchise

[onyx vigil]

Yeah and I didn’t have a good pc until I was like what 12 or 13 the thing I had was a dell dimension 8400 that run barely

[verbal gate]

I think just the sheer ability to have music and movies ready on demand even without slow ass internet was a game changer

[copper vapor]

add the new Painkiller and the new Carmageddon to that list

[onyx vigil]

and then I got a laptop for windows 10 that had a shitty battery making it run ass

[sour rivet]

dont remind me of painikiller :(

[onyx vigil]

True

[pliant meteor]

My ace combat before I knew about ace combat

[quiet yew]

UT99 was my first game
played it with my dad
absolute KINO

[rocky turtle]

pathfinder is saved

[static axle]

i mean even OG kinda ghosted too

[pliant chasm]

i don't remember my first game

[sour rivet]

7 people on it rn

[onyx vigil]

it wasn’t like until I was 15 I got the modern day pc I use now and it costed my family 1k

[copper vapor]

also friendly reminder that Perfect Dark was gonna be remade and it was cancelled
thankfully

[pliant chasm]

was probably virtua fighter on the ps1

[lucid latch]

oh look its the HL1 glock!

[sour rivet]

it looked good thio

[verbal gate]

How old are you again?

[onyx vigil]

Mine was probably super Mario deluxe or Pokémon gold or wario land

[copper vapor]

my first was Doom 2
played via dial-up connection with my uncle and his son

[onyx vigil]

[pliant chasm]

that one was cancelled

[onyx vigil]

And my first game console that I owned was a yellow gameboy color

[lucid latch]

fisheye lens

[pliant chasm]

why did people shit on it again
i didn't keep up ngl

[quiet yew]

crusty-ass family PC with Windows XP for me

[onyx vigil]

I also had a windows xp when I grew up

[sour rivet]

my grandpa had this

[quiet yew]

unc

[sour rivet]

i played it alot when i came to visit

[verbal gate]

Oh man the first pc we could actually afford on our own was the one with an Intel Pentium 4

I loved that thing

[static axle]

i played og box at sisters boyfriends place, then dad bought me ps2

[opal star]

Oh man.

[onyx vigil]

The only good thing about my dell dimension 8400 was that it had 2 cd drives other than that it was garbage and could barely run YouTube at like 15 fps

and it ran on windows 7 ultimate

And I got it from my aunt

[quiet yew]

unc number 2

[copper vapor]

when I was a kid my dad had a monochrome screen PC with idek what system it was. Some pre-DOS abomination

[static axle]

naah he grampa

[onyx vigil]

Which is the same aunt I got my windows laptop that was ok but not the best

[copper vapor]

then we had a PC with DOS, then windows 3.1, then 95, then 98 and so on

[opal star]

These were fucking awful.

[static axle]

we agreed prime is like 47 or something

[verbal gate]

Only console experience was on these type bad boys

[static axle]

lemme dig that agreement

[sour rivet]

woag

[pliant meteor]

Still had my Lenovo Thinkpad, the tank that ran with me for a decade before it finally gave up the ghost.

[onyx vigil]

Is that commodore?

[pliant chasm]

HELL YEAH

[opal star]

Add nearly a decade.

[pliant chasm]

we had these usually in garages

[arctic flicker]

praise the omnissiah

[onyx vigil]

I still have my gameboy color btw

but I have it in my hometown

[verbal gate]

I probably already talked about I played on one of these near a fucking chicken coop, shit smelled but it cost like 5 pesos

[opal star]

It's a knock off IBM, poisk.

[onyx vigil]

Polish?

[quiet yew]

had the pleasure of running into this like half a year ago

[pliant chasm]

we had one in the back of the market
it was a big ass arcade with 3 garages

1 was for ps2
1 for arcade cabinets
and 1 for pool and table football

[static axle]

naah it 47

[quiet yew]

67

[pliant chasm]

prime is 53

[sour rivet]

47

[pliant chasm]

or 52

[onyx vigil]

I literally begged for years for my parents to get a Xbox 360 and then a Xbox one but they refused because there were only shooter games for it, fuck you mom and my big brother

[static axle]

its the old prime account

[quiet yew]

have they not heard of forza?

[onyx vigil]

It wasn’t until 2018 that I got my Xbox one second hand from a seller on Facebook for Christmas

[verbal gate]

One of the main reasons why I didn't remember Ace combat music is because it was mixed with the sweet soulful sounds of SSX Tricky and that one fuckass Bathing Ape game

[onyx vigil]

No not back then apparently

And in 2024 I bought my Xbox series x for like I think 800 bucks?

[quiet yew]

my parents never really gave a shit about violence

[pliant chasm]

it's where i saw re4 and gow for the first time

https://tenor.com/view/stunned-wow-omg-lego-batman-lego-batman-movie-gif-7647770

[onyx vigil]

Well my parents did

[quiet yew]

not unreasonable

to a point anyway

[pliant chasm]

my uncle gave me his ps2 after he sorted his papers and came back home

[onyx vigil]

Well it meant that the only mainstream console that I had was a wii

[verbal gate]

OH SHIT YEAH! I KEEP VAGUELY REMEMBERING THAT ONE MERCHANT IN R4

[pliant chasm]

[onyx vigil]

Oh yeah I wasn’t also allowed to get wow

[verbal gate]

RAN, Flyff and all that

[onyx vigil]

Which basically my parents didn’t want to pay for it

[pliant chasm]

private servers

never paid a dime

[static axle]

ammonium chloride does that

[onyx vigil]

because of the monthly subscription

[quiet yew]

it's like a subscription, right?
understandable

[onyx vigil]

I mean I can understand that as of now

[pliant chasm]

i didn't even know if had subscriptions until years later

[quiet yew]

my parents never gave me money for videogames

so I uhh

had to learn to obtain things

[onyx vigil]

It’s just that now I don’t have fond memories finding friends and playing a good game

[verbal gate]

Same bestie

[copper vapor]

my parents probably would have let me play wow if I asked, but I didn't want to add more bills for them to pay

[pliant chasm]

use the correct game thank you

[static axle]

i didnt even notice the thief

[onyx vigil]

I think when I was like 15 or 16 my allowance or my pay for going to school was like 40 bucks per month or 42 bucks per month

[pliant chasm]

i remember begging for a ps3 i saw on a store
glad i never got one

[opal star]

Hákarl has an ammonium sensation too.

[verbal gate]

I once accidentally slammed my hand on the table and caused the ram to go loose, fucker repairing it made us pay 500 pesos

[onyx vigil]

and it was like that for several years until when I started in my third school that I got better pay

[copper vapor]

once I could pay for my own shit I played FFXI instead

[onyx vigil]

so now I can afford shit

[static axle]

it fine but once it's enough its enough

[quiet yew]

that's honestly pretty good

[sour rivet]

@blazing maple

[pliant chasm]

it's weird looking back before you learned to properly use the internet and how shit was mysterious

[verbal gate]

Nostalgiatopic

[onyx vigil]

That I was only paid 42 bucks per month as allowance as a 15 year old?

[quiet yew]

ONLY?

[onyx vigil]

when everything was expensive as fuck?

[pliant chasm]

mystery flavor chips are always the same

the minecraft one was

eh

[onyx vigil]

most games that I wanted to play costed 60 bucks or more, so I had to wait 2 months for 1 game

[quiet yew]

when I was 14, I got 10 bucks

[pliant chasm]

i remember when i accidentally opened link from games i played

[copper vapor]

bro got 42 bucks a month
I was lucky to get 50 bananas once a year

[pliant chasm]

shi was like wandering into an enchanted forest

[verbal gate]

When I was that age I only got a dollar per day lmao, probably same purchasing power but shh

[onyx vigil]

It wasn’t good, I am having much better financial situation but when I was 15 yeah shit wasn’t very easy

[blazing maple]

[sour rivet]

what

[pliant chasm]

i was on a fucking diet of the cheapest shit i could find

[cunning bronze]

Console?

[quiet yew]

foreign fucking concept to me

[onyx vigil]

Console and pc

[pliant chasm]

same lmao

[sour rivet]

me with state of decay 3

[pliant chasm]

well it was rare for everyone since we all were the same basically

[verbal gate]

If you didn't give a shit anymore you can throw a smoke, since PCs in shops back then sucked ass, it crashes the game lmao

[cunning bronze]

Just gotta wait for sales ig. Unless you plan to buy every AAA that comes out on day one

[pliant chasm]

[onyx vigil]

I wouldn’t blame myself for pirating games since I couldn’t really afford many games at all tbh

[verbal gate]

Then you'd have that one dude in the corner of the computer shop watching porn or YouTube, which slows the internet down so bad

[cunning bronze]

But you can afford games, some people can't

[pliant chasm]

Well depends where you live, really

there was this fucking old man torenting porn

[onyx vigil]

okay while that’s sad what do you want me to do about it? I barely can afford video games back then and all I am saying now is I am having a better financial situation then I did back then so I don’t have to pirate games as a necessity as I did before

[static axle]

we loaned games back and worth in school this way you didnt have to buy everything, loan medal of honor from friend and loan him whatever he wanted to try

[sour rivet]

@thick plover wait i thought we get 2 a day

[cunning bronze]

No, nothing lmao. I'm just saying, that's good that you progressed, but 40 dollars as a 15 years old is quite a bit no?

Maybe my reality is altered

[verbal gate]

You'd be in the middle of an intense game of CS1.6 with lunch money on the line, only to look over and see what seems to be a 40 year old man entranced by a porn video lmao

nvm im dumb

[sour rivet]

why you posting so much marathon

[onyx vigil]

If it was 1990s or 1980s yes but in modern day where most shit is beyond your monthly pay it’s a bit hard as a 15 kid to save up since you couldn’t spend any cash for maybe 2 months if you wanted to save up for a 60 and then eventually a 70 bucks game

[blazing maple]

I'm Marathon's strongest soldier

[sour rivet]

but

you told me you had no interest in playing it..

[pliant chasm]

mate the world is a lot different than just your current situation

[verbal gate]

If it was a younger guy one of the older guys 18-20s will just smack em in the back of the head

[cunning bronze]

I'm excited for Marathon. Hopefully it delivers (also the regional price here is 27 USD)

[blazing maple]

death is the first step

[sour rivet]

aw man

i HATE death

[cunning bronze]

So quite cheap

[onyx vigil]

hell I had the 42 bucks for so long I couldn’t even afford to save up for a pc because it would take like 1 or 2 years to actually save up for a pc which was a long while for a 12, 13, 14 and even 15 year old

[sour rivet]

@rocky turtle i need some W Corp serum

[onyx vigil]

Yeah and some were doing better and worse than me

[pliant chasm]

i took me 3 years to save up for a pc as a 23 man

https://tenor.com/view/marathon-marathon-game-gifcaption-caption-gif-10881002704809381083

[sour rivet]

deserved

[onyx vigil]

I am just saying in my point of view and experience it wasn’t easy in finance as a 15 year old kid wanting to buy stuff I wanted with that low pay

[pliant chasm]

low compared to what

it wasn't low lmao

[onyx vigil]

Compared to today

[cunning bronze]

I mean building a PC is bad now for ram and ai, but last year was okay. Technically you could have saved

what is that

[onyx vigil]

Do you want me to do math? Or should I just ignore you?

[cunning bronze]

I'm just saying. You can technically always choose to not buy a game, and instead save money overtime

Just like streaming subscriptions, sure, it's 5-10 usd, but they add up

Well I'm not sure how much subscriptions are there

[sour rivet]

no reason to be smiling in that line of work

bro you're gonna see dead people

[onyx vigil]

While that is true however if we take in a pc for example that would literally be over 1/2 years of constant saving and buying nothing which is incredibly hard to do if we are talking about the pay of 42 bucks per month

now it is more manageable and possible for me but back then not really

[cunning bronze]

Back then when exactly? How old are you now?

Which I am quite happy with

Ok not so long ago then. I mean I'll be completely honest with you friend, as I was taught by my parents. Sometimes you have to be patient and save money.

Yes it would have taken you 1/2 years but that's something a lot of people do

Save and save until you can afford

[pliant chasm]

or just be smart

[cunning bronze]

I built my original PC back in 2020 and just now, some weeks ago, I changed it

[onyx vigil]

for me it wasn’t very possible back then as the furthest I could save was like 300 bucks after buying nothing

[copper vapor]

[onyx vigil]

for months counting even gift money

[cunning bronze]

Well it's true each reality is different

[pliant chasm]

save up for a toy gun and spray paint it

[copper vapor]

ayo

arc raiders going insane

[onyx vigil]

and it was when I didn’t have much of a collection of games and consoles as I do now, I had to buy majority of my games at 42 bucks per month

[onyx vigil]

I agree

[pliant chasm]

nah i'd win

[onyx vigil]

If you want to modernize it, playing Apotheosis is good enough

They're cultivating a vibe and I'm here for it

[copper vapor]

[latent hazel]

[pliant chasm]

[oblique belfry]

[cunning bronze]

[oblique belfry]

[latent hazel]

[rocky turtle]

[pliant chasm]

it had a beta

[copper vapor]

the streamers tried hard to pull people in but it wasn't enough

[cunning bronze]

Closed beta but yeah. It wasn't that good

[copper vapor]

a closed beta ya

[static axle]

for what

[oblique belfry]

highguard

[latent hazel]

they played it and unanimously said it was ass

[oblique belfry]

it uses easy anti cheat 🥀

[copper vapor]

when you see people are gonna play "for the vibe" instead of the gameplay you realize it's gonna be a meme

[static axle]

[latent hazel]

easy as in easy to bypass

[latent hazel]

bro what vibe
