I'd hope this ends up being a good port since they've waited so long unlike Watch Doges. I realize that may not translate into any meaningful port goodness though.

gta4 was a loving mess, but that was optimized for non-x86 consoles. hopefully gta5 will run smooth just by virtue of being optimized for what's pretty much a PC already

Red Faction Guerilla, Dark Souls, Dawn of War 2, Ace Combat, Toy Soldiers- all of those managed to get rid of it despite the fact that barely anyone plays those anymore. The only games I can think of that still have GFWL are GTA4, Battlestations and Fable 3(I dunno if this one still counts since they took it off steam a year ago)

how about halo 2

i cant even play anything on gfwl because one day it started telling me i didn't meet the age requirements for the games and if i tried to change my DOB it said because of my age i couldn't change it or access certain settings. :psyboom:

Ignoring your racist comment, PC gamers complain and get butthurt over consoles because it's not longer the 90s aka PC gaming's Golden Age. Nowadays all we get are the sloppy leftover ports months later. We're the second class citizens if anything else.

thanks for continuing this really important discussion bro

the san andreas RPG/RP mods were insanely fun to troll, i hope those days will make a glorious return

in a far less faggy way: people took those RPG servers reaaaallly seriously to the point where it was a second life and then you just joined and played GTA as normal and kept typing in "i am the new boss in town" until they banned you

there were also servers that let you pick careers, one of them let you pick a hitman where you could tie people down in a car instantly with a chat command, what you're supposed to do is drive it into the ocean but you could also just leave them tied up forever in the car until they had to disconnect

another fun thing to do in SA MP was drive-bys. if you shot out of the driver seat of a car, the game gave you a shitload of bonus damage and auto-aim (to make drive-by shooting cars and stuff easier for certain missions), obv something that wasn't balanced with other players in mind.

so if you drove around completely shredding people apart and blowing up cars with that they would get SUPER pissed and call you a cheater etc. good times
