I’m cool with anyone waiting for PC in spite of it not being announced but they should have to sign a contract promising that if it never actually comes out on PC they don’t spend the next 8 years complaining about Rockstar not releasing the PC port every time somebody mentions RDR

Stare-Out posted:That's just it, like with GTA5 they have the money to put on a magnificent show, audiovisually speaking, but it's almost as if there is a hidden stubbornness to it all; they've largely stuck to their controls for a very long time for whatever reason when better options are available. I genuinely hope RDR2 will be the one to break from that pattern and give in (not that it would even be a significant thing to give in to) and have controls that are more widely accepted nowadays. It may seem like a small thing but it absolutely adds up over several hours of gameplay. This is also just a matter of preference. I definitely agree there should at least be a toggle in the controller settings so everyone can have what they want, but I greatly prefer stick to walk/additional input to run in pretty much every immersive third person game, especially open world ones. Exceptions are stuff like Uncharted where constant frantic jogging and running fits the tone most of the time. God of War’s strikes a nice balance where you’ve got a slow jog max before a toggle sprint. Running by default in a game like Assassin’s Creed Origins drives me crazy, I just want to saunter around like a big dick badass and feel immersed in this richly crafted ancient world, but everything about the control scheme seems geared to railroad me into sprinting like an rear end in a top hat over and through everything from GPS dot to GPS dot as fast as possible. Just maintaining a natural walk through a market requires careful feathering and constant vigilance to not bodyslam ancient cleopatras through their ashrams. It’s exhausting

DogonCrook posted:The last red dead if you killed someone in a canyon they would respawn further trapped in the canyon in sight of you with no cover. One of the dumbest things ive seen a multiplayer game do ever. It was pretty easy to do this to somebody or have it done to you unintentionally the way the map was. You actually had to kind conciously avoid doing it to people if you werent trying to gently caress with them. this is true. the spawn system was so broken it was the most grief friendly thing ever. you basically just had to leave a game if someone decided to start griefing you

I’ve played a poo poo ton of GTA Online and when you get can a solid team together to run the various missions and activities it’s a ton of fun but it’s not as easy for me to do that as it was when I was like in college or whatever and yeah the constant load times and UI stuff between you and gameplay just kills momentum when you spend so much time loving around on your phone waiting for something to load

Zipperelli. posted:... did... did you just totally miss the gameplay trailer they dropped? that was at the start of August and we haven’t seen one since then though with the game only a month out, which is kind of frustrating. but yeah I do agree that people are being ridiculously nitpicky about this game, starting from the hysteria months back about how it probably wouldn’t even have single player because of Rock$tar. if you don’t really play games for the story and want to skip through whatever you can I guess more power to you but rockstar’s whole thing is kind of these story driven immersive exposition type of games. you have to know going in that’s the design direction and you may not be the target audience

i cannot wrap my head around the difficulty people are having with the bounty system. literally just leave the scene of the crime. you have so much time to leave. don’t loving worry about the witness, someone will just wind up seeing you silence the witness and you’re still hosed. but if you just aren’t actively still at the crime scene when the law finally shows up you won’t be caught it’s literally just that John Mulaney bit about crime in the 30s, except it also applies to crime in the 1800s https://youtu.be/rmcwqe5-Si0 i don’t think I’ve gotten a bounty once outside of story mandatory ones, and I’ve never bothered with the bandana or anything. my big secret maneuver is to just not actively still be doing a crime when the law shows up if you’re getting a bounty because a bunch of lawmen actively see you doing a crime, then I mean, yeah

uncle w benefits posted:Despite my Arthur being a glowing, virtuous, and downright chivalrous outlaw, each time I talk about my **~feels~*~* with Mary Beth or Tilly, Arthur keeps talking about how he's descending deeper into psychopathy. Talking about how he kills animals needlessly, is growing more and more violent for no reason, etc. Yet, I give rando dum dums who got snared in their own traps or bit by snakes the good medicine out of my satchel. I mean, you kill roughly 800000 people per story mission and probably a lot of good animals along the way too, and the necessity behind the carnage becomes more and more questionable so I don’t think it’s a weird thing for Arthur to say

DogonCrook posted:Reading between the lines in some of the dialog i got the impression dutch sees the ledger as evidence that you are the actual leader of the gang and he knows it and imo thats a lot of his motivation as he spirals out of control. You bring home the bacon and he cant do it. Theres a time where he gets real sullen about this. this is interesting, first I've heard about it. once I realized I could pay for upgrades out of pocket I pretty much exclusively donated stolen bullshit and kept all my money to myself. what sort of dialogue does he have about this?

I have accidentally shot somebody once and it was real early game when I got in my first post-tutorial fistfight and couldn’t remember if punch was circle or R2. Technically I didn’t even shoot the guy, he caught my arm as I drew he punched the poo poo out of me causing me to drop my gun which went off. But yeah, R2 doesn’t do anything except shoot people, I don’t know what this is with people accidentally mixing it up with talk

If there is any DLC I really hope we get some older Colt Navy revolvers. That’s my one complaint now that I finally found my proper Justified Stetson hat I wasn’t excited about Online after getting completely burned out by GTAO’s grind, but the more I tool around postgame the more I can’t wait to do this with fellow cowpokes

Micah being tolerated and embraced by Dutch makes sense when you realize Dutch isn’t the pragmatic criminal genius he makes himself out to be, and is actually just a dude who wants to run around in the woods and blow poo poo up with his buds while they fawn over his affectations of wisdom forever. Micah and Bill enable him, and the rest of the gang increasingly cramps his style because they actually believe in the promise of freedom and paradise and have two brain cells to run together. It makes complete sense that Dutch tolerates these stupid shitheads, and the frustrating realization by both player and Arthur that he does is why they’re written the way they are.

it makes absolutely 0 sense for a number of reasons but it’s my personal head canon that Uncle is Red Harlow somehow just because Red was kind of enough of a dork that I can buy him accomplishing his revenge quest and just loving off to spend the rest of his life telling questionably true tales about his past and lazing about kind of neat that both RDR1 and 2 now acknowledge that Revolver happened in this universe at least to some degree

this is real rough without passive mode or a solo lobby. trying to stay one step ahead of the angry mob keeps me on my toes but makes basic poo poo like going to town to unload pelts a massive pain in the rear end. I rode halfway across the map to sell my poo poo only to find two dudes shooting up the place and camping the story mission there

Norns posted:Don't fast travel with skins and carcases in online. They all go poof. They seem to disappear anytime you’re separated from your horse by any kind of loading screen. I lost mine after being killed and respawning. Money is and isn’t too bad. It’s fine for provisions and ammo and most clothes, the guns and weapon customization options are a bit absurd. You can’t even change the metal on your guns without paying gold, and something as small as rifling is like 85 bucks. But getting money hasn’t been too bad so far, little concerned about what I’m going to do after running out of story missions, I’ve only done like 5 and it says I’m 50% done.
