I really am genuinely curious as to this affliction, the same one that appears to have gripped GRR Martin, Patrick Rothfuss, and Robert Jordan back in the day, in equal measure.

I dunno. The main plots could largely stay in place, but GRRM has a lot of space in the story still. He can do all kinds of things

I think perhaps that may be why it’s been slow since the finale, but he was moving very slow ages before the poor reception to the last season/finale.

“You don’t finish this shit, George, we are going to have Brandon Sanderson do it for you.”

Also, lower numbers could cause them to reassess the game and decide it’s no longer worth it to develop new content.

I thought they should protest out of game at first, but the more you think about it, the more it makes sense to do it in game.

Current pandemic aside, an in-game protest like this, and the subsequent media coverage, will get the point across faster than trying to organize a lot of people to essentially boycott playing due to lack of updates. Alternatively, simply not playing, and waiting for someone at Rockstar to notice lower player numbers,…

I feel like gamers just have too many options nowadays. There’s a lot of bits of specific language in this review - checking your phone while watching the pre-duel cutscene, audibly sighing when cresting a hill and seeing more things to do, “The layer of Japanese aesthetics barely hides the fact that the world is just…

I am truly sorry to hear that and I really hope, like me, that you’re on the other side of it. I’m here if you ever need someone.

Aw, killing klansmen was my favourite activity in RDR2.

Killing Nazis is great and all,  but really I haven’t been able to kill enough clansmen in gaming.  It feels fresher.  

The only thing better than killing the KKK is killing Nazis. I loved stumbling across these guys...

For fuck’s sake, just give me a single-player add-on worth buying outright. This live service stuff is getting exhausting.

Rockstar makes new online content that exists only if you’re willing to pony up still more cash?

How could anyone suck at GTA? Is there competitive GTA that I’m unaware of? Nothing about GTA Online is skill based outside of racing. I play GTA for the playground of destruction, and often times, it’s just getting bombed by someone with more money than you. Let me know how to not suck at that.

Yes, R* stops you. You can’t do half the missions in a private match or closed lobby.

I’m pretty broke and quit playing because the rich fuckbags made it not fun anymore. Join game - get killed by some fuckwad in an armored car, rinse, repeat. Fuck GTA V

GTA Online is a broken mess, dominated by the frustration of going broke and wasting money on insurance and picking up your car from the repair shop on one hand; and getting obliterated by kids with their parents’ credit card numbers and a virtual armada at their disposal on the other.

Oh Christ, just shut up!

Except that you can’t run CEO missions and such in private lobbies. Those and part of the new heist sequence, can only be done in plain “public” lobbies.

Wish it was like old gtao and you have the ability to just make money in private matches and not have to deal with dumbshit like this
