I think I'm done, this app sucks and has zero redeemable qualities at this point.
To all my mutuals, thank you for the good conversations, it was fun while it lasted! To Elon and all the rest? Go fuck yourself and get a job you miserable losers.
@wolfyvelvet I know I'm supposed to be retired (I only came back because of this announcement)
But Warhorse has stated in an AMA a few weeks ago that they are expanding on the localization and do not see AI as replacement for human work.
Quentin Tarantino on Joker 2:
"Todd Phillips is the Joker. The Joker directed the movie. heโs spending the studio's money like the Joker would spend it ... Heโs saying fuck you to the movie audience. Heโs saying fuck you to Hollywood."
@ghostedghostly@Marionete04 It is a good and valid way to play GTA IV. Just not ideal in my opinion.
Playing it on Xbox 360 hardware or PC with Fusion Fix installed is the best way to experience the game.
The BC version is better than the PS3 version and miles better than vanilla PC, I'll give you that.
@ghostedghostly@Marionete04 I mean if a bug that was caused due to high frame rates causes a game to be almost impossible to complete (the final mission mind you). I'd say that's a pretty big deal.
Not to mention that the older GTA titles has tons of issues with high frame rates in general.
Over a decade later, people still debate whether Assassin's Creed Unity was the last true AC game or simply a disaster, but most ignore the fact that its tech was years ahead of its time.
Take how the system handles NPCs for example. It's not just about a bunch of random NPCs popping in. The engine is constantly calculating your distance to every person in the street to swap how they act. Up close, they're "real NPCs" who react to what you're doing but as you get further away, their behavior merges into one giant, simplified group to save performance.
I built this visualization to show exactly how the system handles NPCs in real time.
@seanranklin@Heyarvy You know what, that's probably for the best, I'm proud of you.
Giving this fatass, or any infamous "lolcow" for that matter any more attention than they need should be frowned upon.
The trolls are even bigger losers than Wings himself.
@Marionete04 That's good to hear!
I also highly recommend playing the DLCs for GTA IV. They're some of the best expansions ever conceived for a video game and makes GTA IV a fantastic full package.
@Marionete04 Oof, did you experience that helicopter bug at the final mission where Niko struggles to climb onto the moving helicopter due to a high frame rate related bug?
@BigBossAwesome@paparpg I have zero faith in it. Open world crime sandboxes are incredibly expensive to make and if you're not Rockstar it's basically become impossible to make a good one.
And besides, the reboot completely tarnished the series' reputation so it's not like it would sell well.
@dub_bossman69 I love this quote from the late great Oscar winning film director William Friedkin.
"We make films for an audience. Not for the critics, not for awards. You know... the awards are ephemeral. I think my films have won several awards - I don't remember what the hell they are."
a certain half of the community is genuinely fucking insufferable and toxic
every new game that comes out is compared to either rdr2 or rdr1 in terms of 'muh hyperrealism' so now we got 8 year development hells because we gotta make sure the average realism bootlicker >
@Kaiseroktober@glorifiedturk Misinformation, there is no evidence to support that there was gonna be an Epilogue where you got to play as Dutch if you had low honor.
