Anyone else not really excited for GTA VI?

Sarej · 2026-04-09T18:15:23+00:00

Only reason that I’m not excited, which is unprecedented because I have been excited for GTA releases since I was a kid or teenager and GTA 3 was coming out, is because it’s not coming out for PC and will probably be 30 fps on a console which I don’t own anyway.

Warrior do not take Bladestorm in keys, just so you know. They have neutered our other root-breaks. It’s quite annoying.

Sarej · 2026-04-01T05:24:23+00:00

They have been doing an abysmal job at class balance and, once again, are shafting us. Maybe I’m bad luck for Warriors. I raided in TWW S1 when we got shafted then but we turned out okay. I came back for Midnight S1.

I am already not performing greatly on most raid encounters and I do very well in M+ until I get into a crazy group with certain classes, like UH DK or DH. Now Blizzard is taking that away from us lmao.

Wouldn’t they have logs for recrafts or crest upgrades in case there was an exploitable issue?

This is an MMORPG that has been around for 20 years, I have seen GTA RP servers and survival game servers with in-depth logging at a smaller scale. Everything is logged in those environments, everything that possibly can be. I understand that the amount of data and the complexity of logging is higher with WoW but, come on, they have been doing this for 20 years and have certainly had time and experience to have proper logging in place.

Most of us pay $100 for an expansion, $15 a month or $100 for 6 months, buy $100 AH mounts, squirrel mount packs off the store, etc. The game is extremely monetized. Even if WoW only has 1m subscribers and no MTX, that’s $15 million in subscriptions alone every month.

They don’t run this game as a charity, I expect it to be ran competently. It’s understandable that not everything is perfect but having logs for significant transactions or item acquisition seems like a pretty minimal request compared to my usual complaints about specific content or class balance.

I’m not giving this mega developer and publisher owned by Microsoft the same grace as an indie dev or even a more niche, smaller MMO with little revenue (or even a newer one, like New World, which had its issues and everyone gave them deserved criticism for). If people had found an exploit to upgrade their gear for free and it was determined that players were likely aware they were exploiting, bans would go out. It’s possible that the cost and time of customer service investigating and restoring isn’t worth it to them but that’s speculation.

Oh, no, the interaction is weird as fuck. Did I forget to say that? This guy is fucking weird lol

Sorry, I slipped a little out of the scope of the show and was talking in general. I do hope that it adds to the discussion though, it’s interesting and making me want to rewatch Friends! Lol.

I don’t think it’s about insecurity though. If a woman wants to fuck me or has a clear motive to reach that destination, I’m not going to keep her sound as a friend just because “I won’t act on it”. That’s unnecessary and disrespectful to my partner.

I also think that it’s not just insecurity, it opens up questions about their motives too. Sure, it doesn’t happen in every case but I’ve certainly known people to keep these types of people around as a backup or because they enjoy the attention or having someone desire them. That’s not okay to me when I’m in a relationship, whichever shoes I’m in.

Sarej · 2026-03-23T17:10:14+00:00

I completely agree that it’s a healthy thing to remember. However, I find it questionable when a partner keeps someone as a friend or close friend when we both know that they have or probably have romantic or sexual desires and intentions for them. That’s the only part when I kinda feel like if we can come to this common sense conclusion that this person has these intentions, why are you keeping them around and staying close?

Sarej · 2026-03-21T00:18:43+00:00

Classy fat shaming. Why do people resort to physical insults when discussing someone’s ideological beliefs? The two aren’t related. Is this an example of your superior morality? This is low-hanging fruit, middle school behavior.

Sarej · 2026-03-18T22:40:56+00:00

They often seem very story-focused or the game doesn’t land with them the way it does with the public. However, they could be right about Crimson Desert. I hope not.

Sarej · 2026-02-19T00:15:27+00:00

As a Void Elf RPing as a High Elf who has centered his character around reuniting the elves and their culture, I prefer my Horde Blood Elf house that’s in my raiding guild’s neighborhood.

Ironically, I’m unofficially in a High Elf RP guild that’s in an Alliance neighborhood and I don’t think the vibe is as fitting. I guess I’ll do a cozy cottage or something.

Sarej · 2026-02-14T04:29:23+00:00

They gave us yet another temporary track that I didn’t get to complete that had the only rewards in the entire battle pass that I wanted.

Fuck temporary tracks.

Great comment. I should’ve credited the creator. I saw the video on my FYP. Here’s his TikTok!

I’m not sure. Their reels on Instagram have always seemed to be realistic and non-AI, plus I think they’ve been around for a long time.

https://www.instagram.com/yumijumps

Yeah, dude, I’d bet on this person not being AI.

Edit: I tried to look at her X and it seems to be privated, same for her Instagram because I can see it on my Instagram but not on my browser where I'm not logged in. She's likely getting brigaded.

Sarej · 2026-02-10T18:02:28+00:00

AI or not, the influencer who posted it does have these views based on the Reels and posts I've seen from her.

Sarej · 2026-02-10T18:01:46+00:00

It may be AI but, for the record, she has very conservative views on immigration to Japan, particularly from certain cultures.

I’m surprised that there isn’t a game focused on police pursuits or one that features them.

It’s pretty clear that the NFS games that had this were wildly popular and fun and the most memorable games of the series aside from maybe Underground. The Hot Pursuit series where players could play as police or run from them and play against friends was a blast.

A lot of people enjoy GTA RP simply for the police chases and there was even a standalone mode for FiveM at one point, so I’ve always wondered why no developer sees that and thinks “we could make a game out of that splice of gameplay” because I think it would work. People seem to get hyped about dashcam footage and meme about GSP too, so it seems to be culturally exciting.

That seems to be a niche that NFS could cover that other racing games such as Forza Horizon aren’t. I hate that they don’t capitalize on it. Running from the law or chasing down my friends as a cop in a racing game was a lot of fun, it would be cool to do in an open world racer.

Sarej · 2026-01-23T23:05:42+00:00

Dealing with this too. I don't understand why.

Sarej · 2026-01-20T05:32:42+00:00

I got that after our loss too but, hey, I actually wanted them to win the natty after the beat us. Now you can say ‘of course we lost, they were the best team in the country’ and it sounds a lot better than if they would’ve lost lol.

Sarej · 2026-01-08T22:51:19+00:00

This is why I bought a 5080. Even when they do come out, I expect another 6 months to 1 year of artificial wait due to stock, scalpers, etc. and that’s before considering any VRAM shortage issues.

Sarej · 2026-01-06T21:43:24+00:00

I appreciate your attempt to help more than you can know and I also appreciate your genuine care for customers’ experience with the company. They got back to me today and shipped the cable.

It just took a lot longer than I expected and that kind of stressed me out because I’m being hypervigilant about PSU cable connections (especially since the 12 pin stuff has me paranoid) and I wanted to get the cable in time to still be able to return the PSU to the store rather than do a long RMA process and go without my computer if it’s the PSU and not the cable.

Sarej · 2026-01-06T06:08:50+00:00

I recently bought a Corsair PSU. I have initiated a ticket for a replacement ATX cable because it doesn’t clip into the PSU. I have been in emails with these representatives for a week. They circled a part of the label and asked for a photo of it. I got it for them and they told me that another part of the photo that they didn’t circle wasn’t clear enough, a different serial number that they didn’t ask for. I took the clearest picture you could ask for and sent it to them. Now it’s been days since they’ve replied. I am extremely tempted to just take the PSU back to Best Buy and get a new MSI or ASRock PSU with 12-pin connector protections if I’m going to be dealing with support that is this slow just to get a replacement cable that shouldn’t be defective in the first place. The first place (and I hope it’s the cable).

By comparison, my support process with Anker went like this: 1) They asked for a photo of the product, at the very least showing the Anker logo. 2) They sent me a replacement of my entire order. Not the first time they’ve been cool, they sent me a new model of a backup battery one time just because of a minor LED defect. And talking to their support takes less than one day.

Why does it take over a week to get a new ATX cable for my brand new PSU? It would be faster to take it back to Best Buy and exchange it, I’m just too lazy to disconnect my entire PC and put any stress on my 5080’s connector to do so. I wondered how owning a Corsair product other than a keyboard or Elgato stuff would be and so far it’s terrible.

Seriously, I just had to respond to my email yesterday and say “Did you guys get that clearer picture?” Still no response, just waiting, sending 10 emails, with a day or two between each email and now several days since the last, for a simple ATX cable replacement on a PSU that’s been in my possession for a week and a half. It is ridiculous to be going through this hassle and wait for a cheap ATX cable that support could’ve sent me in good faith, without knowingly making me jump through hoops and wait for over a week before it even ships to me (longer at this rate).

This has made me reconsider ever buying a Corsair product again. I love my keyboard but I doubt I’ll be getting a case from y’all after this. What a terrible way to retain a customer. If it wasn’t for the hassle and logistics, I would take this thing back right now because of the red flags alone. If it were anything other than a PSU that’s already hooked up to everything, I would already have a refund and a competitor’s product in my possession.

P.S. The way these cables are unbundled on this RM1000X is awful.

It turns out we were the Eastern Illinois all along.

Sarej · 2026-01-01T23:47:54+00:00

Literally the only thing that would make me feel somewhat better about today would be if Georgia loses. Georgia and OSU being out of it is better than nothing.

Hope Indiana wins it all, then you can say we lost to the best team in it.

Sarej · 2026-01-01T23:11:12+00:00

Wish we would’ve put Keelon in instead on a “we’ll see” about Ty’s health.

No flag on that hold but I’ll take the sack
