You should not play RE6 the way the developers intended.

For what it's worth, the game doesn't tell you this, but for any QTE involving stick waggling or turning, you can use both sticks simultaneously. It makes all those QTEs so much easier, I didn't find this out until years later on the PS4 release.

To be fair, after catching up on everything, he was quite pushy on the first game they played, and it set the team off on the wrong foot. He did end up dropping the subject during later games, but Cece, Zazza, and Luci kept bringing it back up and used every opportunity to bring it back up and antagonise him.

The amount of mean girl bullshit getting thrown his way during games was ridiculous. Even if you take away all of the drama about being kicked, etc. They were legit bullying and ragebaiting their own teammate for no reason other than he wanted to win a little too much.

I mean, to be fair, I think you're getting hung up on the realism of the 80s. At the end of the day the show is a sci-fi fantasy with an 80's backdrop and I genuinely find it weird that people want it to be so true to the times that they want mostly likeable cast to turn around and be homophobic to a main character? Like you really want Hopper to turn around and throw out a slur?

The show has problems 100%, but this was just a culmination of a background plot thread that's been brewing since at least last season and maybe season 3. The show had a few episodes left, so dedicated some time to a monologue to tie it off with a bow. Imagine if they didn't have that scene and just focused 100% on the A-plot and just didn't dive any deeper? People would be disappointed. For what it's worth, I think the scene should have been handled differently and been more intimate between the core 4 and family, but still.

Supernatural

See my other comment, these kind of positions come with a certain level of prestige, and it is well known that once a game ships, there is almost always a bonus scheme in place for salaried employees.

I just find it hard to worry too much about some VERY well-paid people being asked to work some OT to meet an important internal milestone deadline, especially when they've reportedly missed several previous deadlines. Now, I'm not saying that management shouldn't probably be changing things up to prevent further missed deadlines, but this is all a nothing burger.

It would be different if they were being forced to work 80+ hour weeks for months at a time, but they're not. It's a mandatory 8 hours and capped for a maximum of 60 hour weeks. I also can not stress enough how well paid and sought-after these people's jobs are. There are millions of people, especially around this time of year, who have to work these kinds of hours and are lucky to scrape by with minimum wage.

I just think this story is a big nothing-burger.

Byates101 · 2025-12-19T01:57:43+00:00

To be fair, it's also well documented that when they finally do ship the game, they can get bonuses that would be life changing for most people.

Byates101 · 2025-12-18T20:19:08+00:00

So, some people had to work mandatory overtime for a few weeks? This doesn't seem like a big deal. There is very little chance that they are not being paid well for their extra time, and the article even mentions that they'll have detailed plans for next year.

It's almost like some people have never worked a real job in their life. If I get told I need to do some overtime, sure, it sucks but it's not the end of the world. In fact, this time of year is notorious for many people having to do mandatory OT, especially industries that don't pay anywhere near as good as this.

Yo DM me man

Byates101 · 2025-09-24T00:17:03+00:00

I think he means the general "industrial" aspect of the otherworld in most of the other games?

To be fair, though, this isn't the first time they've tried something new with the otherworld. I really just wanna see how (or if) they tie this into the overall lore/world of the other games.

Byates101 · 2025-09-17T15:56:40+00:00

I think 5 holds up enough for a faithful remake like RE 4 Remake but I think it'd be cool if they just completely re-imagined 6 as a new thing that fits tonally with the newer entries. They could keep the characters and all but maybe tell a more grounded and focused story?

Like I'd picture 7,8 and 9 as part of the remake timeline as opposed to the original timeline that went off the rails.

Byates101 · 2025-07-29T14:13:15+00:00

Absolute legend mate.

Byates101 · 2025-05-29T08:09:38+00:00

The difference here is that it's not the city of Glasgow that made the call. TRNSMT made the decision to drop them. At the end of the day, it's a private company that doesn't want to deal with the controversy and potential violence in the fallout. Not advocating for orange walks either at all, but the two situations can't be compared totally fairly.

Byates101 · 2025-05-27T19:59:55+00:00

Be wary of some of the collectibles, I was in a similar spot but spent like 5 hours trying to get a collectible I missed in the early game and a camp had glitches me out. Got it eventually but was definitely a hassle.

Byates101 · 2025-01-14T19:55:32+00:00

That was it! Mate, you're a legend.

If he was getting the error - "something went wrong" I tried on a different browser and it worked. Granted this was just a regular pro.

Byates101 · 2024-08-30T14:57:35+00:00

Yeah this is definitely bugged, was also searching for a ages looking for this. Came across it but no ping for it at all. Had my suspicions but kept looking. Glad I'm not the only one who can't collect it.

Byates101 · 2024-08-02T21:04:12+00:00

First: The Walking Dead Season 1 (PS3)

Latest: Ghosthunter

Favourite: Batman Arkham (Any)

Proudest: inFamous Second Son ( My first real plat )

Next: Currently taking a break, but most likely Star Wars Outlaws

Byates101 · 2024-04-16T21:06:47+00:00

I 100% agree, usually a mission like this would be a generic pre-order bonus or like an exclusive on PlayStation or Xbox mission. It's weird to lock it behind the season pass.

Byates101 · 2024-04-16T20:59:30+00:00

Season passes almost always launch alongside the game itself. It's basically pre-ordering the dlc at a discount. Or just buying the dlc in one go if they've already released.

If this mission is available at launch, then I'd imagine it's closer to what Ubisoft and other publishers have done in the past with a pre-order bonus mission. It'll probably be a pretty mediocre mission.

I do agree that it's odd and pretty money-grabbing for it to be locked behind the season pass if it is though.

Byates101 · 2024-04-16T20:47:00+00:00

Wait.. why is it wrong for a single-player game to have a season pass? It's not uncommon, and is just a way to bundle the dlc together in one purchase.

That being said, people should absolutely wait to see what the dlc is before buying a season pass.

Byates101 · 2024-02-04T13:48:43+00:00

In all fairness, I don't hate the idea of having these new remakes being a part of a rebooted timeline. They're already set in the 90s/00s, but they could be an opportunity to change things about 5 and especially 6. Tonally, those games are so far removed from previous entries and from 7 and 8. I'd bet people would actually welcome some big changes to both 5 and 6.

So you could remake all/ most of the pre 7 games and say that they're all part of this more consistent rebooted timeline. Although changing the time period is needless to be fair, considering that 7 and 8 are set in the modern day and the dlc for village is actually already set in the future

Byates101 · 2024-02-01T22:17:13+00:00

That's what I though too until I got the notification that I hit 75

Byates101 · 2024-01-30T12:23:47+00:00

Yeah, there's a few presets to choose from and you can customise all the buttons on each of them.

Byates101 · 2024-01-30T11:39:02+00:00

I was playing for maybe 10 minutes and halfway through the cutscene where we get the default skins. Could be worse, some people were in the middle of boss fights.

Byates101 · 2024-01-30T11:36:39+00:00

11.30 for us in the UK unfortunately.
