THe writing looks a lot better than GTAV's so I'm starting to get hopeful. Are there any videos out there showing UI, menus, fast travel and other quality of life stuff? Cause that's the only big issue with GTAV I haven't seen evidence of being fixed in this.

Same for the stone hatchet. Thanks all got it done this arvo. Looking at GTAO for the first time since launch, did they ever backport any of the guns and cars to single player cause drat was the base game kinda lacking on that front.

I feel like there's some chance Rockstar will step in it with aftermath of the Civil War stuff, either chickenshit and piss off people with whitewashing and "both sides" or less likely portray it accurately and piss off chuds by suggesting slavery was bad and the South sucked. But pointless to speculate til it happens, hoping for the latter though.

GTA V had a real problem with being so cynical and hateful it just robbed the story of any sort of impact. The worst sort crotchety reactionary GenX whining, like South Park.

Aphex- posted:Yeah most of the reviews I've seen are saying it's a very good story, apparently a lot less cynical and more earnest than other rockstar games. What I've seen of the writing from streams, reviews etc suggests a major improvement in character writing and small scale personal stuff. And the same old oblivious Rockstar botch job on anything to do with race, gender and politics, exacerbated by focusing on the reconstruction era South. Which is better than I was expecting honestly the cast being likeable and empathetic is a big step up from GTA5.

Dapper_Swindler posted:It’s post reconstruction by about 25 to 30 years. It’s more middle late gilded age plus I never expected rockstar to tackle or go after the racial issues in any big or meaningful way, this isn’t mafia 3. Right, Australian so my knowledge of US history can be fuzzy on the details. My point I guess was more they decided to wade into situations involving plantations and poo poo so it's fair to give them poo poo for loving it up. Like yeah I'm not expecting them to deal with racial issues, but they kinda chose to anyway and didn't do it great by reports. Shoehead posted:It's really sad that that is a step up, but god drat GTA V was miserable. It didn't help me that I was going through a really tough time in my life and I couldn't deal with how incredibly horrible every single character was in single player V. (Except Lamar, he was solid) Hentai Jihadist posted:hey! another lamar fan, yeah he was legit the only good character in that whole game. Man GTAV was terrible with its characters. Someone up thread asked who wouldn't do the death wish ending. Me. Cause after that game I just needed one of those fuckers to die (Michael BTW Trevor at least had his moments). Protagonists don't need to be good people, but if you want me to play as them for that loving long they better be likeable. Protagonists you hate only really work in short games where you don't burn out. Like Silent Hill 2. Also yeah Lamar was like the only consistently good bit of that game's writing. Dapper_Swindler posted:my biggest issue with 5 and to a greater extent 4 and even red dead 1 was that everyone talked like they written were by rod serling if he were alot more cynical. everyone can make deep insitful long winded remarks about society, humanity, etc in long passionate way. and it got old and weird fast. and i have a soft spot for that kinda poo poo. Rod Serlings generous. I'd say it's South Park with the saving grace that the Rockstar doesn't run a creepy rear end libertarian bent.

So after a day with the game - holy poo poo the simulation aspects, hunting and pissing around are the best ever and are goty on their own. - the writing is shockingly good for Rockstar and seems throwing back to San Andreas and Bully when they knew how to write likeable characters, but even more so. Rockstar pulling back on the "15 year old hears about Nietzsche" nihilism finally. I like most of the cast, most of the quest npcs are likeable, sympathetic or at least amusing. Hell most of the random world npcs aren't misanthropic caricatures. It's a loving miracle. - the controls/movement suuuuuuccckkks. This poo poo is real bad coming off the latest Butt Religion. - the bits where missions force you into specific actions and tear away from the immersive sim aspects are jarring garbage and are like someone just inserted outdated early 2000s design into my otherwise fantastic game. Oh wait that's exactly what it is, stop using the same mission design constraints you have since GTA3 for fucks sake. 9/10 cause cowboy immserive sim with enjoyable writing and as someone who will put up with Eurojank dealing with Rockstar's bullshit gameplay isn't too big an ask when I don't have to deal with their worst writing habits too.

No, but Rockstar also hasn't done poo poo for many years so who knows what they'll do now that such things are kind of expected. Leaning to no though, but there isn't really a pattern to make giving they released one game in the last decade.

In chapter 3 and kinda loving the way they're handling poo poo. Like I get the complaints about "making light" of things by making the Klan slapstick wilderness encounters, but also that shits is cathartic and it's fun sometimes. Coming off the last AAA game to approach this poo poo being Far Cry 5's toothless centrism the utter lack of compromise and handwringing in the writing is nice. The stranger mission with the slavecatcher basically just giving the 'heritage not hate' tools the finger was particularly cool. I'm getting real worried at how much I'm liking the cast cause I'm p sure everyone's gonna die, and everyone not in RDR1 will die before the game ends. I unfortunately found out I have the Jack/Sadie/John/Abigail glitch so I'm considering putting the game on hold til we get some patch news. I found Jack a storybook at a murder scene and now can't find him to give it.

So to people who beat the game, does it do the RDR1 thing and kill off the lead and we play as someone else in the epilogue? Cause like Charles or Sadie would be cool for that.goferchan posted:How far into Chapter 3 are you? I apparently had that bug too and it resolve itself shortly after starting Chapter 4, I was able to give Jack his book then. I don't think you miss out on any companion missions or anything, only some camp flavor dialogue while they're gone Just did the quest to help Lenny steal the Raider's guns.
