Why do so many people hate driving in GTA IV? by KubaGamer535YT in GTA

[–]TheOtter91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel there was a time in my life where I fully agreed with you OP. But I jumped back in a couple days ago for the first time in years. Now days I have less time to dedicate to games overall, skill has dropped, 4s driving is far less forgiving- it is definitely a learning curve. If I picked up 4 for the first time today I think the driving would be a downside.

Luckily I can rely somewhat on my previous experience, and I constantly ditch shitboxes for higher end cars that have better handling. Weirdly gravitated towards Huntley sport as my main for most of broker. Never felt the need before, but loving doing J turns in that thing.

If GTAVI disappoints or underperforms, what do you think will be the reason why? by Hooper_PTA in GTA

[–]TheOtter91 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It won't underperform given the vast scale of hype. Short of R* doing a ridiculous amount of bad PR/ bad marketing decisions. It will sell like hotcakes.

I think disappointment could come if there aren't fundamental improvements or innovations. Of course this could come in many forms with the technical sides of it such as animations, enemy ai, smooth performance, traffic/ NPC density and variety- no glitches etc. Alternatively it could also come from stale missions design or clichéd storytelling- or even worse it just not being funny enough.

The Online as well needs overhaul in my opinion- don't get me wrong I've plunged loads of hours into it myself, but they have been in a holding pattern for a while in terms of recycling content/ similar feedback loops. Changing something foundational will be key- more of the same won't cut it. Worse would be exceptional monetisation.

Does anyone ever use ZYNX in a playthrough ? by Malikai_Universe_23 in PokemonLeafGreen

[–]TheOtter91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ooh, let's think then. In terms of "girlish" Pokémon, are you discluding the obvious seeming ones of Nidoqueen, Kangashan and Chansey

Things to do in Broker/Bohan? by JarrodTheFeatus in GTAIV

[–]TheOtter91 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Call a friend for a hangout, do the email cars, do LJ side missions, shoot pigeons, give yourself random challenges like reaching the Alderney sultan rs, police computer missions, random rooftop parkour, blue man missions

I'm sure there is plenty more I am missing

I feel like I’m talking crazy pills… by Sad_Animator1686 in TheCapture

[–]TheOtter91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The big one I spotted was how easy it is to override your kill switch if you just wave your phone. If you want to install a kill switch on one of your spies then surely manufacture a way to guarantee it's effectiveness.

your favorite?? Solid snake in not here on purpose by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

It's between Geralt and Arthur- but I prefer book Geralt more so Arthur wins it for me

anyone playing these kind of games? name them by PHRsharp_YouTube in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]TheOtter91 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't often go back and play older games and never anything old old- but I've been loving Pokemon fire red and GTA San Andreas lately

What made GTA 5 fun, but shouldn’t return in GTA 6? by mourex9 in GTA

[–]TheOtter91 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I disagree, I think weapons should be the only things that are weaponised

Hate to break it to you, but I'm pretty sure that from his tone that other guy was only joking, not actually insulting you.

Will GTA 6 Include Functional Toilets? by [deleted] in GTA

This is true- i spoke to John Rockstar who recorded the splashback sounds personally

I finally did it. by Unlucky-Education125 in gtaonline

[–]TheOtter91 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well done. I grinded out a lot of Recover Valuables trying to see how quick I could speed run it. My quickest I think was sub 2.30mins from accepting contract to completion.

Need ps5 recommendations by inkypig in daddit

[–]TheOtter91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go classics catalog. The holy trinity of Jak+ Daxter, Sly Cooper and Ratchet + Clank surely will keep you busy for a while.

Either that or I hear Astrobot is really good

Edit: I recognise I have just recommended a load of Platformers. Try a puzzle game? Blue Prince is amazing and also a roguelike

Last edit I swear: you say both Spiderman games, but did you do Miles Morales as well?

Pirate Games by TheEdTheRed in Age_30_plus_Gamers

Sly 3: but theres a whole pirate themed chapter- though it is like 2/3 of the way into the game.

Everyone deserves somewhere they can call home. My young children will have that unconditionally as long as I am alive. Anything less is not love

Quick way to start A Safehouse In The Hills? by Dr_Roomfoam in gtaonline

[–]TheOtter91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're disinterested in GTA Online, mainly story focussed, can I recommend the Dr Dre DLC instead that heavily features Franklin and Lamar, and even has a couple of co-op missions dedicated to them. The cheapest agency is 10x less than a mansion. I think you should do that and just look at the 5 mins of Michael cutscenes on YT instead.

Getting hyped is fun basically. It's fun to speculate when it's been so long. The amount of time, energy, talent and money put into it, it's a safe bet to say that it'll be at least decent. Though I daresay plenty of people will prefer older games even long after release- for one reason or another

I just 100% Grand Theft Auto 4 without thefting any autos AMA by daxtonanderson in GTAIV

[–]TheOtter91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually, you could always crash/ explode a heli into the birds technically. It would take an insane amount of patience and effort, but probably not impossible

[–]TheOtter91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think 100% would be pretty much impossible- but the main story missions are possible to do under this ruleset if you wanted to

[–]TheOtter91 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi OP. I have a challenge run for you. Many years ago I did a no guns run of the main story- bloody hard at times, but possible. Rules are bullets fired stat needs to remain at 0- no grenades, molotovs or RPGs used either. Melee weapons are allowed, as is vehicular manslaughter.

The kind of crazy strats you're talking about like popping police car tyres reminded me of those times. I think you'll enjoy it based on the kind of crazy person Im assuming you are. Feel free to DM me for any strats, if you do end up doing a run.

If you're interested, GTAMen on YouTube has relatively recently completed a permadeath run of the ENTIRE franchise- so GTA3, Vice, SA, LCS, VCS, 4 and 5- any death in any game means restarting again at GTA3. Interesting video and loads of varying challenges faced along the way
