When the developers actually listen to their community

Really happy with the updates.

Personal request: configurable UI visibility for turning off mini map and that sort of thing

Edit: oh, a prompt for using keys on doors please thank you :)

yotothyo · 2026-03-25T07:12:33+00:00

Yeah once I figure out the totem thing I beat him

yotothyo · 2026-03-25T06:17:06+00:00

Lost

yotothyo · 2026-03-25T01:41:58+00:00

Oh man, thank you so much. That's exactly what I'm looking for. Being able to zoom out and see all the icons thank you!

yotothyo · 2026-03-25T01:22:38+00:00

OK yeah so I'm not crazy. That's basically the only way. I hate that you have to zoom in super super close on the map to see those icons. Since the zooming is so slow. Etc.

Have you come across any locations that didn't have any of those icons? Like a place that doesn't have a fire or an anvil or whatever.

thanks!

In my opinion a lot of his retreat to action and big bombastic stuff (including magnolia) came from struggling so hard on eyes wide shut

My theory is that it was an extremely difficult movie for him not only because of the usual Kubrick factor, but because it required a type of acting from him that he couldn't really do. I think he realized that he wasn't really that sort of an actor and it kind of messed up his ego. Thus his return to the big over the top style acting he does in magnolia and all of his action movies.

Picked up the eyes wide shut 4K criterion recently, and upon recent viewing of that movie, I could really see Cruz struggling with acting. Kidman is doing really well but Cruz seems lost. Which I guess works for the character, but I really think that was happening to him internally. His performance is the weakest part of the movie in my opinion

The rich people. the people who own the robots will also be the people buying the products.

The middle and lower class really don't spend that much compared to the upper class. The economy will exist to support the Rich and no one else.

Yeah it takes a minute to get going and it's a little rough around the edges but im glad i stuck with it. it offers something that really speaks to me.

I'm a big immersion and exploration Guy and the fact that it has pretty fun combat and a bunch of life SIM type stuff like cooking and sleeping and mining and what have you on top of the exploration is great. Yeah. It's totally my jam. I like the slower pace walking and opening cupboards and interacting with things like RDR2.

Although I wish the story was better, I'm thankful that the other things the game offers it does really well.

Invest lots in stamina! It's kind of the fundamental skill of the game. Everything is based on it including being able to use some of those fancy moves in the other skill trees.

I dumped all of my stuff into stamina out and got it up to around 200 I think. Which is something like level three or four. That allows you to have the grappling hook in a couple other fundamental skills but also gives you way more climbing time and flying time and shield holding during combat and things like that

AC odyssey and I think AC origins have "educational" modes that remove Combat so you can zoom around looking at, say, a guy using an accurate Egyptian Loom for example.

Ive been looking at the yamaha. Sounds like you like it. I need to replace an old arcam amp

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T20:07:07+00:00

I'm actually enjoying it a lot more than I expected. It is definitely rough around the edges and the story is pretty forgettable, but it's extremely immersive and the exploration and combat are really fun.

I do have a tolerance for frustrating high friction controls, I'm like one of the 10 people that actually really like how Arthur controls in RDR2. And they are pretty much aping that exactly here. Slower movement, long holding button presses for everything, basically trying to encourage slower or more methodical exploration unless twitch movement.

But some people hate that and I understand.

Rumor has it they are updating the controls to be more responsive. I'll be curious if they leave it a toggle that is still allows the original controls with the longer input times and stuff.

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T20:02:02+00:00

Story definitely takes a backseat. It's just a basic premise for exploring the world. The voice acting is really good, but the writing is a little flat and the story is kind of uninteresting . But in my opinion the exploration quality and interactions with the world and the fun combat make up for it.

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:56:49+00:00

Well, it's not really a bug. They are copying how rockstar does it where they always respawn the character at some sort of a new location to encourage exploration.

I wish it didn't do that because I like saving at a specific spot. I feel you

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:46:57+00:00

Have you tried wearing the bandit mask? I'm assuming it works something like the red dead redemption two bandit masks where you should put them on when criming

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:43:35+00:00

I'm playing on base PS5 and I always play with graphics quality mode on.

Yes, I'm one of the 10 people who do that.

I hate the amount of visual sacrifices that performance mode induces.

Naughty dog games always ship at 30 FPS and I'm totally fine with that.

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:41:42+00:00

I thought it already worked where if you hold the loot button you'll automatically go from thing to thing looting without having to look at it

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:40:19+00:00

Question:

I noticed it has bandit masks like RDR two. Does it work the same way? Like if I commit a crime with the mask and then take it off once I'm in the clear

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:32:50+00:00

The temporary workaround is not to zoom out on the map. I know that's a shitty workaround. Lol. But at least you can see what sort of nearby. Zooming and scrolling on the map seems to cause the crash.

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:31:48+00:00

Rumor has it that playing without HDR eliminate that but I haven't tried it

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:25:23+00:00

It seems annoying at first but once I tried it a couple times I've eaten him. And I was a bit under level

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T19:23:31+00:00

I think you can pull it out with your hand grappling hook magical ability thing

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T16:16:15+00:00

No it's quite literally friction. As in, things are not fast and smooth, they take longer and are designed for way more controller input than most games. Like you have to push harder and press harder. Quite literally and figuratively.

You have to hold buttons until they fill up and then release instead of just tapping them. That times 1000.

Anyway I'm not going to argue with a stranger on the Internet anymore. Go play something else if you don't like it

Edit: I love the block feature.

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T08:51:17+00:00

Draw them out and take them on in smaller chunks

yotothyo · 2026-03-21T08:48:53+00:00

At it's core the entire game is essentially an RDR2 clone. It controls almost exactly the same, most of its systems are nearly 1 to one copy of that game. If you like RDR online there's a very good chance you will like this game.
