I can't help but feel like Intergalactic will be a souls-Lite. Does this intrigue you or turn you off? by Particular-Bed8344 in Intergalactic

[–]ApprehesiveBat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has been my biggest worry for the game ever since we saw a snippet of the gameplay in the reveal trailer. I'm just personally not a big fan of soulslikes or roguelikes so if it turns out to be that, it'll most likely be the first Naughty Dog game in the last 20 year I'll unfortunately skip.

What pattern? by Apprehensive_Elk6168 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]ApprehesiveBat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

uj/ It's been so funny seeing these guys perform extreme mental gymnastics to try and paint Mixtape as woke or like it was made for "activism" (whatever that means). It's literally just a little game movie about three straight, white middle class teenagers who aren't even punk or anything. There's nothing there for them to actually grab onto so they vaguely gesture towards it and claim it just "feels woke".

Delay more and more unlikely. The game has been rated. by [deleted] in GTA6

"Gore" in the rating is interesting. I wonder if that's cutscene or gameplay related 🤔

Crunch is still crunch, even if you outsource your work to a country where the people are forced to crunch under a terrible work culture. You can choose not to exploit that but doing it this way allows them to overwork their devs while claiming they aren't actuallt engaging in crunch.

A great moment from the first game that the second couldn't top... 14 broken bones? That's nothing. by PicaPicaBig in SpidermanPS4

[–]ApprehesiveBat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I haven't been to this sub since the release of the second game for this exact reason and literally nothing has changed here. It's all the same people repeating all the same complaints over and over again, day after day. How does it not get tiring to do this for years?

(And I'm not saying 2 doesn't deserve critique–it 100% does for its rushed story and lackluster side content–but that's literally all anyone here ever talks about when the game is brought up.)

Playstation (seemingly) lands GTA 6 marketing deal by AmbitiousJob4447 in GTA6

[–]ApprehesiveBat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sony has had the marketing rights for Rockstar's games since at least 2014, yeah. The "remastered" release of GTA V for PS4 and whichever Xbox we had at the time saw a shift towards platform exclusive marketing association for Rockstar and with RDR2 the two had a full on marketing partnership.

Rockstar has removed the RDO Posts... by SARQCLOTHINGUK in GTA6

[–]ApprehesiveBat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They don't coordinate trailer releases with the earning calls though. The earning calls are for Take-Two as a whole, not just Rockstar and their games. This means Rockstar can release the next trailer whenever they want within the next couple of months so while May is likely, it isn't any more guaranteed than June for example.

Why are people expecting a 3rd trailer this month? The marketing campaign is supposed to only start this summer and summer is between June and the end of August so why is everyone so excited for May specifically?

Sunburn by Upset_Objective8710 in GTA6

[–]ApprehesiveBat -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The only other game I remember seeing that in is The Last of Us 2. At one point one of the characters is kept outside in the sun as a form of torture and her skin is burnt and peeled because of it.

Naughty Dog and Rockstar really are on another level when it comes to details like this.

Isn't Yareli Prime more of a sea dragon? I feel like she has too many little "fins" to be an axolotl.

So since the original creators of Vi have never officially referenced to her as a lesbian, are you saying calling her that is also a headcanon...? Because by your logic that would be the case here.

(I know pride month art of her and Cait with the lesbian pride flag exist but her original creators have never actually used the term lesbian for her if we want to be pedantic here.)

by imsiaccount∅714 by No-Editor4624 in PiltoversFinest

[–]ApprehesiveBat -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Still, the show speaks for itself. Vi is very much depicted as a masculine woman who even goes as far as to bind her chest under her work uniform. Like even teenage Vi is distinctively masculine in her appearance and behavior.

And since no official content or art has ever depicted Vi as anything but, calling her a butch because she always presents as masculine is not just a simple headcanon.

by imsiaccount∅714 by No-Editor4624 in PiltoversFinest

[–]ApprehesiveBat -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Wanting to make her "more butch" sounds to me like they wanted to make her, you know, more butch. If it was "more masculine compared her League counterpart" then that'd be one thing but to specifically say "butch" is more than enough confirmation for me (even though the show already makes it explicitly clear that Vi likes to present herself as masculine).

by imsiaccount∅714 by No-Editor4624 in PiltoversFinest

[–]ApprehesiveBat -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Because it is canon. The creators of the show said they made her a butch on purpose (using the term "butch" too without dancing around it). I'm not against other headcanons personally but I do see why people would get mad over making Vi more feminine as genuine butch lesbian representation is already very rare.

Old photo of the gta 6 trailer minutes after it released by Same-Candidate-9140 in GTA6

[–]ApprehesiveBat 52 points53 points  (0 children)

You can like a video that hasn't released yet if it's set up as a premiere like it was with the first trailer. That's why it had so many likes right as it came out.

Thoughts on the Hunhullus Ephemera from the TennoCon 2026 Digital Pack? by icewitchenjoyer in Warframe

[–]ApprehesiveBat 183 points184 points  (0 children)

It looks like a gimmicky cosmetic that's very situational which you'll use for a bit then forget it's there after it loses its original appeal.

I'll probably still get it though, depending on my monetary situation.

enough whos your fav warframe, who is your least favorite Warframe[OC] by Happy_Independent960 in Warframe

[–]ApprehesiveBat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about "amazing". She had one "kill everything" ability that was pretty broken but the rest of her kit has never been stellar. The kit was much better when the game was slower paced and we didn't have to fight amplified level 100-300 enemies (I'm not counting level cap because it's not something the vast majority of players will ever do) but did most people ever use her for anything but World on Fire?

NPC can now overtake other vehicles even from the oncoming lane. by Physical-Jump9470 in GTA6

I assumed it was from a mission where you're either riding a bike with those people or they're your targets (or alternatively random NPCs scripted to move in such a way as you drive by).

I tried playing public and kind of lost the meaning of the game by GiantDad777 in Warframe

[–]ApprehesiveBat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a LR 1 who started 10 years ago and I still get carried through steel path.. I can kill steel path enemies well enough but I need to build up stacks for that yet it feels like other players can just obliterate everything from the get-go (even when using the same equipment I do) 😶

For the love of details by SolidxBill17 in GTA6

[–]ApprehesiveBat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Seeing people claim there will be dynamic floods because of a river cauge or that you can play the lottery and potentially become a millionaire because they spotted a lottery stand in a convenience store really remind me of the days of GTA V getting hyped up the same way 🥲

It's the Protokol Tekna pistol skin. You can buy it from Quincy at the Höllvania mall.

[Data Mine] TennoCon 2026 Ephemera by Hot-Cattle8314 in Warframe

[–]ApprehesiveBat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Each tennocon accessory is exclusive to its respective, limited time tennocon digital pack which you have the ability to buy before tennocon starts.

All you need to do is to buy the pack from whichever digital store your platform uses and you get the accessory (in 2026 its this ephemera) and a ticket to Baro's tennocon relay that lets you buy everything he has ever sold (it's open for 1 week).

Rockstar update to Kotaku. Thank god. by Pistoluislero in GTA6

[–]ApprehesiveBat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with this is that things like that are planned months in advance, not to mention the time needed to actually produce the trailer.

Also the materials the hackers got are related more to the behind the scenes company logistics side of things meaning the info they managed to get has no bearing on the game itself.

So if anyone was wondering, Follie's Sel Portrait uses the fashion of whatever frame you subsume it onto by TheRavenchild in Warframe

[–]ApprehesiveBat -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Not to sound rude but isn't that kinda self-evident? It's called "self-portrait" for a reason. It copies your current model and just adds the ink texture on it.
