Yes, the company ultimately behind the game where you fight and kill homophobic Christians might be sensitive to leaks.

I just don't get the whole narrative that the game itself is homophobic when the main characters are gay and trans and you fight homophobic religious nut jobs (the BAD GUYS, GUYS). Like, at all.

Pretty sure you also play as the leader of the villains for a solid chunk of the game, up to and including hunting down the main characters from 1

I could be wrong though because trying to search for more details right now mostly just gave me google results for anti-SJW subreddits complaining about the Gay Agenda

Maybe I’m not as jaded as I thought but I don’t think ND is going to suicide a guaranteed cash cow with a bunch of homophobic poo poo.

There would’ve been a cancel movement that you could easily google or look for on twitter if they did.

Original leak..... edited out

Quartering, it's a Gundam, and upper echelon gamers had stuff on it on YouTube, unless it was pulled.

It’s not about the accuracy, Sony is concerned about people owning the story/image of the game’s brand instead of them.

There's better space fighter games, better base building games, and better exploration games. But NMS is all of those in one and you can do whatever you want.

Survival is kind of bullshit. It doubles/triples the cost of things across the board which makes the grinding extremely painful. Wish it was a more targeted option, that let you say keep the standard cost of things but ups the damage/environmental damage/etc.

There's two questlines now. There's the Atlas questline which was in the original game and the new Beyond questline that is one part tutorial and one part main quest. Once you do a little bit of the Beyond questline and get system teleporters unlocked (took me 2 hours on my very first time with the game) the rest of the game is basically open.

I just rode down to Saint Denis for the first time yesterday, and they really nailed the feeling of “Wow, the era of the Wild West really is over” when riding a horse down a street lit by electric lights and dodging a big street car.

Just a heads up in RDR2, sometimes the butchers disappear. They come back, but it threw me for a minute when I had a horse loaded down with hides and more meat in my pockets than in a supermarket when they all just vanished for a few minutes.

Gonna go on a cross map slaughter hunt later today. Probably should do one of the Horley missions too.

Cause you were busy running from one pack of death monsters into another and another when god dammit I just want to escape and go beat up on some rats? Oops tripped and got two-shot by a mecha-jackal

At first I thought the game had way too many random healing potions sitting on rocks by the side of the path but now I understand why.

Speaking of Prey and Dishonored, that developer Arkane Studios, worked with Valve on a Half Lifr spin off a while back. It was called Ravenholm. There’s a bunch of details about it in a new NoClip documentary that came out yesterday. Gameplay and all.

The good news is, when it's taken off gamepass, you'll still be able to play it.

I've bought enough games that have turned up on gamepass, only to disappear later, that I'm glad I shelled out in the first place. The Long Dark won't be up forever. GTA5 was up on it for about four months. I suspect RDR2 will only be up through september or so. Even Bethesda has been pulling back on their gamepass games.
