A Russian man questions what will happen if China decides to move on Russia:
"If they keep bombing the refineries, in another month or two we’ll have to move around on horses and donkeys. And if China enters… we won’t even have gasoline to fuel an APC. We’ve completely bared our a** on the Far East."

It’s very weird to see people pretend Red Dead 2 doesn’t exist just to discredit the GTA 6 hype.
GTA 6 is built on top of RDR2, which is widely considered one of the greatest games of all time. That’s why everyone is hyped, not because of GTA 5.
This whole “live action is where we are taken seriously” mindset in the West needs to die. And it needs to die hard.
The fact that this scene alone cost probably the amount it would to produce half an episode of the original show only for it to have ripped the soul out of the original is an egregious waste of talent and resources.
With 2D animation, there are so many more interesting things you can pull off because you have absolute control over the scene due to it needing to be drawn. The movements can be more extravagant without needing to run actors through insane stunt training, the effects blend better together if it’s all drawn, you can use a much wider range of camera angles, and the scale of thing are much easier to pull off.
Anytime something live action comes out that follows a pretty fantastical premise, I immediately think that animation is the way to adapt it closest to the author’s intent.
It’s clear that Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones (the early seasons) are outliers in this whole thing, but we just don’t wanna touch animation “because it’s childish” or some other nonsense, which leaves it to a bunch of other opportunists who made absolute slop instead.
It’s just so sad to see.
