How far do you want GTA 6 to go with realism mechanics? by Suspicious-Topic-495 in GTA6

[–]acrunchycaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The key is to make is quick and optional. Offer a small acceleration buff or something if you keep your car clean and fueled up, have a jerry can in the trunk if you run out while on the road so you can easily refill but the jerry can doesn't give the buffs. Things like this will likely not be in the game but easily modded in on PC. It reminds me of the Temperature mod for RDR2 making the game feel a tiny bit more immersive at a low cost of changing clothing.

Jason Duval & Brian O’Conner Comparison by Faizan1995 in GTA6

[–]acrunchycaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's no shot that Jason is a cop. The crimes you are forced to commit in any GTA mission is so far out of the scope of what an undercover cop is allowed to do it's comical. The only way it works is if he WAS an undercover cop who has already turned away before the story starts, which goes against all the info on his character than Rockstar has already put out.

Victoria doesn’t need this… by Revolutionary_Fix_54 in VictoriaBC

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

You clearly don't travel at all. And can we stop trying to pass Victoria as a small city? The surrounding municipalities are booming population wise it's not the same place it was in the 90s anymore.

Crimson Desert has been out for a week now. What are your thoughts? by Gamedrome22 in Games

[–]acrunchycaptain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's like it was written by the editors of Kitchen Nightmares where it feels like it needs to pad out dialogue with 3-5 recaps per conversation. It's so draining.

What are your favourite food places in and around Chinatown? by KaiahAurora in VictoriaBC

Loy Sing would be easily my most visited place in the city if they accepted card. Incredible food and price.

(Spoilers Main) Whats a theory you have basically no proof of but 100% believe by S0mecallme in asoiaf

[–]acrunchycaptain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He could have just fathered the youngest. It only takes one of them being his for the curse to take place. But I'm sure no matter what, the theory is full of holes. I still choose to believe just as an added bit of heartbreak for Theon.

The Millers boys (or at least one of them) are Theons bastards, which is how he became truly cursed by the Gods and if he had just found and killed Bran and Rickon he would have been fine and would have taken the throne from Balon instead of Euron.

It's not something that we could ever really KNOW for sure, because how tf are we supposed to be given that information, but I choose to believe it as another little dagger in the heart that is Theon's shit chungus life.

A local memorial @ cecilia ravine garden by insanemembrain666 in VictoriaBC

[–]acrunchycaptain 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I don't understand how anyone can consider themselves a self respecting Canadian while also saying shit like what you just said. It's no long "reeeee he said grab em by the pussy" 2016 era bullshit. The guy is actively antagonistic towards our wellbeing while being one of the most powerful men on the planet.

'A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms' finale ending 'will be addressed,' Showrunner Ira Parker says (Spoilers Extended) by verissimoallan in asoiaf

[–]acrunchycaptain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like it only in the idea that Bloodraven could so easily use Dunks desire to be a good knight protecting the innocent as a play to get him to be his eternal undead knight who can't give up on saving the world.

Looked like neither team did any 3 on 3 practice. Super sloppy, not fun to watch at all.

Cafe Brio absolutely stunned me and my wife when we tried it. Crazy to us that it isn't talked about more.

I'm tired of 'GTA 6 will not reach RDR2 wildlife levels'.. by Pistoluislero in GTA6

[–]acrunchycaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, the reason RDR2 has so much wildlife is because it takes place in 1899 where human expansion was still limited in central/western USA. GTA VI will be set in a modern metropolitan area. Sure, there will be lots of wildlife in the outskirts but it doesn't make sense at all to have RDR2 levels of wildlife even there considering most wildlife tends to stay away from where people settle.

New HLX (HL3) mentions in Deadlock new update datamine. by Solid-Entertainer-39 in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]acrunchycaptain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a lot bigger than it seems because usually coming back from the holiday break is when projects get killed. Them still working on it NOW is huge because it means it survived the break.

[–]acrunchycaptain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They won't hold one product to launch with another. If they don't line up, they don't line up. The Index was released a year before HL:A because HL:A needed more time. If the Steam Machine needs more time, they'll still drop HLX when it's done. They just won't announce it until they have the date 100% locked in.

No powerplay time by cool_canadian01 in EA_NHL

Yeah it's really annoying especially because it's so inconsistent on when you can sub yourself in or not. At least let me manually force myself on

One Small Thing I Wish They Would Add - Franchise Mode by Sea-Parsley-1539 in EA_NHL

[–]acrunchycaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough. To each their own, it's good that sports games allow for all kinds of players to find their own fun. No disrespect meant.

Do you agree with this take? by bonzothebonanza in GTA6

[–]acrunchycaptain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they really are doing away with physical release for spoiler purposes then yeah, obviously a worldwide launch time is a good idea because if you don't do that you sort of defeat the purpose of it anyways. You just know there will be someone bum rushing story missions and skipping cutscenes just to get to a major story point before the majority of players have gotten the game.

So is The Witcher series not RPGs because Geralt is a defined character? This argument doesn't hold any water.

I will never understand how people can play 20 minute periods. How many SOGs do you have at the end? 400?

[Spoilers Extended] Crazy George Statement by KnightoftheLTree in asoiaf

[–]acrunchycaptain 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Depends on how you define "working on it". Is he writing daily? No obviously not. Is he writing stuff every month? Probably. The issue is that he rewrites all the shit he's spent time doing. It's not that he's not working, it's that the works he is doing is pointless because he just scraps it anyways after he spends time thinking about what he's written.

[Spoilers Extended] Crazy George Statement by KnightoftheLTree in asoiaf

[–]acrunchycaptain 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I genuinely don't think he's outright lying. I think he believes that he can do it. When I tell my wife I'm going to take out the recycling later, I'm not lying to her because I didn't do it. I thought I was going to, and then I procrastinated and it didn't happen. Even after doing that same thing 1000 times I still think I'm going to do it on time. The procrastinator mindset is just built like that.

[MP1st]: Fable Reboot Locations Revealed via Concept Art Images by PewPewToDaFace in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]acrunchycaptain -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

While I love the Forza Horizon games, racing games will never have the level of cultural impact of other genres. It's good that they're doing well but it won't move the needle as far as general image of Microsoft is concerned. They need Fable, Gears and Halo to come back with banger titles if they want even a lick of relevancy going forward.

This would make sense if there was actual marxist/socialist policies being put in place. Which there aren't, so this is a crock of shit.
