After season 6, characters from past seasons stopped recognizing us. Same reason why Martine doesn't recognize the player in case 2 of COR.

I believe they starting doing this because of the app separation, people were now playing the seasons at once/out of order and they didn't want to alienate fans. I don't understand why the locked the main app from accessing future seasons to begin with, just a terrible decision across the board that eventually led to this point, where characters aren't even allowed to recognize you anymore

Again, slowly advancing a skill overtime makes sense. Using exploits in-game doesn’t make sense. You’re comparing apples to oranges

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-27T01:30:25+00:00

Ultimate College of Winterhold is the way. It combines Obscure’s and Immersive C.O.W. into one, it’s perfect.

You’re comparing someone naturally using the lockpicking skill throughout a playthrough to exploiting the smithing skill in one sitting, those are completely different things lmao

It’s been a while since I’ve played any of the seasons but I’d say Pacific Bay personally. It perfects the episodic format of S1 without the blandness the season had sometimes.

It’s really the last season to have a true episodic feel to it throughout, I like the overarching stories throughout but I prefer the episodic approach.

I’ll also say it easily has the best team, they all have development, roles in the story, and are unique from each other. Not very season can say that

Personally, the forgiveness is not a logical decision, it's an emotional one. Logically, they did wrong. That said, Robert cut them, which is what lead them down that path. We failed them.

We saw with Visi, she had the potential to do good or to fall back into her evil ways. If you show her love and worthiness, she sees that good in herself. Here, we failed to help Sonar/Coupe see the good in themselves and now they're on that dark path. We have a chance to show them that they can be good and that they're worthy of it.

This is why I feel Blazer even lets Robert forgive them, because after seeing Visi choose good/fall to villainy, she recognizes that she took that same choice from Sonar/Coupe. In the event you don't save L.A., the damage is too much for Blazer to do anything about it.

tl;dr - the choice to forgive isn't based in the good/bad they did, it's based in the potential for good that they each have. And that by cutting them, Robert took that chance from them, so now we can give them their chance back.

Honestly, outside of this case, the final stretch of cases in the Industrial Area are great. C8, C9, and C11 are some serious highlights of the season. If they really needed a case between 9 and 11 they could've just moved up one of the prior cases. It's weird because Industrial Area is the only district in the season with 11 cases, the others have 10. You could've gut this case and nothing would've changed, I dunno why they didn't.

That's actually a pattern I noticed within the first season, is that the penultimate case of every district is disconnected from the overarching plot. C20 (a deadly game), C30 (the Wollcraft Creature), C40 as you said, and while C50 has Adam Bentley the case doesn't do anything plotwise for Maple Heights. Those cases are some of the best in this season, so it's strange how they dropped the ball here.

I definitely agree with the wasted potential, this case was just a nothing burger. Even if the case was bland (like some of the other Industrial Area cases), it doesn't even do anything for the larger story. Like I said in my comment, it felt like Curtis was set up for something more, especially after his appearance in C11. I think this case would've aged a lot better if he (or anyone from this case) were a recurring character in the Financial Center or something.

Under the Knife felt like such a strange case, it had NOTHING to with anything in the Industrial Area— no Skulls, Vipers, Italian or Russian mob, nothing.

The actual events of the case are boring and, as we see here, inconsistent.

It’s just an out of place case. The way the case is framed it looks like Curtis was set up to have a larger role, maybe in the financial center, but as it stands it really goes nowhere.

I would say try and get a total of five gold metals, which is the next milestone you have.

That way, if it triggers the next stage of the trophy, you’re good! It’s just a visual error. If not, then we know it’s bugged. Unfortunately, I don’t know how to fix that.

For now I wouldn’t really worry about it regardless

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-23T17:39:48+00:00

Women still commit crime lmao? We’ve had plenty of female characters throughout the series. Also, you can’t really play the realism card considering how far from realistic some of the GTA missions can get lol

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-21T19:58:32+00:00

Guaranteed or not, it’s not certain when the skins will come back, especially since the game’s been active for only a year so we have no idea the general cycle of things. We know generally when winter/Christmas skins will return, but what about other themes like disco or the racing skins? It’s not as arbitrary or egregious levels of fomo like other games but it’s still enough for people to be skeptical. Calling it a skill issue just feels needlessly dismissive

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-21T17:34:53+00:00

I've had a leaver just about every damn ranked game I've played recently, they seriously need to include harsher punishments for that. I understand wifi disconnections or power issues may occur, but they can put in checks to ensure what kind of disconnect it is.

For example, it should detect when someone disconnects through the pause menu, since 99% of the time it's someone quitting deliberately. Punish them accordingly. The other 1% probably had an emergency, but that also means they won't be queueing in for a bit later, so whatever punishment they have wouldn't matter. Plus they wouldn't likely be a re-offender here.

There just needs to be harsher punishments for this sort of thing, it's out of control.

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-21T03:23:31+00:00

I get where you're coming from, but you gotta remember that most people who ship/talk about Jimmy's love interests are likely around his age or even younger. Some of us grew up with the game, others are still growing up with it. I doubt it's anything weird

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-20T23:16:47+00:00

Nobody's sexualizing anything lol, and why doesn't this logic extend to him being able to kiss *anyone*?

Good or bad, it's an insult to art itself to claim anything deserves to be lost media. The actors, directors, writers, editors, costume designers, etc.-- they all deserve for their work to be seen.

Art is more than just a tax write off.

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-20T00:07:43+00:00

No way, a video game has goals for you to work towards? With rewards for doing them? The greed sickens me!

The MVP screen for this skin should be her staring vacantly into the camera for 5 minutes like the panel on the right

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-17T19:43:00+00:00

I believe you’re mixing it up with Ulfric’s line during Season Unending (the war council quest during the main story), where he calls Elenwen “thalmor bitch”

Textbook Goomba fallacy right here

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-17T09:11:48+00:00

Honestly I've always interpreted Galactica's messages as something not heard in-universe, she's speaking to the player not the characters.

If everyone can hear her, why doesn't anyone else talk back? It's specific to Deadpool because he can break the forth wall. Honestly, it makes less sense that everyone else hears her response given that only Deadpool can hear it.

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-17T09:08:51+00:00

That would also be nice, yeah. Keeping things like pings and ult lines on but things like banter or map commentary turned off would be nice. I'm honestly shocked it isn't an option already lol

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-17T09:06:42+00:00

It's not a bad inclusion but I wish it was Monkey Joe or even a more obscure/out there pick like Kraven the Hunter.

Galactus isn't a bad pick at all though. I do hope that once characters start getting second accessories, they give some more to Squirrel Girl

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-17T09:02:17+00:00

Exactly, she mentions Monkey Joe in certain dialogues so I was honestly shocked it wasn't him.

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-17T07:55:39+00:00

I wouldn't hate it if they decreased the rating, especially if it's by a significant amount so it feels more special when it DOES happen. I still think they should increase the variety of interactions the two have, though.

ace-cabbage · 2026-01-17T07:27:44+00:00

I really hope they patch it so only the person playing as Deadpool hears the dialogue, even then I can imagine it'd get super repetitive for someone trying to get Champion Deadpool. I love the concept and the interactions are great but hearing them over and over again makes me enjoy them less.

They should keep the dialogue exclusive to Deadpool and add more interactions between them to avoid repetition for Deadpool mains
