it’s like they made a absolutely fucking massive early PS3 game in 2018
infinite abstractions but constrain them all down to your avatar, the end goal of everything nobody wants
I wish there weren’t so many people harmed by artists with infinite resources to burn being this high on their own bullshit
it’s even more unbelievable that they could contain multitudes in… a prequel
its gonna own when the rockstar brothers just keep making increasingly undesirable vanity projects and become reclusive and end up watching the opening cutscene to Vice City on loop in their enormous mansions like fucking Howard Hughes
OK maybe it is just that I don’t get it
the online modes almost make more sense to me on paper than anything else about it
red dead online could be really cool but it’s still fundamentally GTA multiplayer, which means guys who are 100 levels above you will randomly roll up on you and blow your head off every 5 minutes while you’re trying to scrounge for pennies
I also associate my “why are you making me interact with all of these arbitrary systems in the narrowest clumsiest way possible like that’s supposed to make it fun in itself!!!” reaction more with minecraft than anything else so I guess rockstar still has a basis for thinking they’re at the forefront of game design but I find the whole thing so baffling
I’m still reeling that you and I had the exact same reaction to a videogame
It’s good that you seem to be handling it well, but remember that we’re here for you if you need anything
maybe the cranky old man energy was inside me the whole time…
im so here for this forum arc
for all I know it is miserable to play but reading about it rdr2 just sounds more and more interesting to me. I knew you could sit in chairs I didn’t know you could pick things up off the shelf.
It’s an extremely chill time to play RDR2. I’ve played a little less than 10 hours and I spent most of it hunting and camping, away from any semblance of civilization. Only returning to base camp to drop off some things and catch up with people if need be.
THANKS FOR MAKING ME IMAGINE IT
now that i think about it if bully played like red dead 2 id still probably be into it, since it wouldnt be cowboy shit and a skateboard upkeep minigame sounds dope actually
do the skateboard’s balls shrink when you ollie into a snowbank
a lot of my games still have the horizontal art awkwardly fit, hope they fix that
give me my list back
so the apple arcade launch lineup is pretty nuts
