Well, then GTA just isn’t for you, the same as Skyrim isn’t for me. I love the story and characters in GTA and hate the lack of deep characters and stories in the Elder Scrolls series because I don’t care much for exploring worlds in a way that doesn’t feel meaningful to me (or my character). We also seem to dislike GTA Online for different reasons. Me, because it’s devoid of characters and story, you because it lacks things to do.

Everything you describe you dislike about GTA V and RDR2 is what I love. I couldn’t care less about online. I find playing in an endless sandbox a waste of my time. I love however the characters and the story, especially in RDR2. I want Rockstar to keep making great story modes and to focus on amazing fixed characters because the opposite rarely works out. Bethesda games, for example, quickly bore me and ubisofts characters in the last decade have been a joke. I love that the industry trend goes towards big singleplayer linear adventures again because for a while there was too much focus on online and too many ginormous but boringly empty open worlds. Rockstar manage to build amazing single player experiences while still having a huge multiplayer community within the same game.

Didn’t have the acquisition of Quantic Dream on the Radar. That makes them unproven in their current form. Fair point.

For Rockstar though, if you liked GTA V, you’ll probably like GTA 6. Same goes for a potential RDR3 or any other IP. Sure, they’re owned by take two but Rockstar seems to be able to produce quality games regardless. Probably because they’re bringing in shit tons of money. I don’t see that changing much any time soon. If someone told me they preordered GTA 6 already, I wouldn’t be scared about them getting scammed. Worst case the PC release will have a few buggy weeks.

Similar for naughty dog, the PC port of tlou pt1 might have had a rocky release but it’s still a good game because it’s a remake of a masterpiece. And whatever game they will release next will almost certainly be a great game as well, be it another uncharted, tlou or one of the new IPs they’re working on. If you’re a PlayStation gamer anyways. And technically the PC port of tlou pt1 wasn’t even made by them but Iron Galaxy. And the PS Account thing, while annoying to some, has no impact at all on the contents of the game.

This isn’t to excuse shitty behavior of those devs, they all have had their issues but they never (or at least not in recent memory) released a lemon of a game, unlike Ubisoft, EA, Bethesda and the likes.

Yea, but there are a few studios where I wouldn’t doubt someone’s sanity if they preordered. Naughty Dog, for example. Maybe Rockstar and Quantic Dream.

What are those in English?

Yea, it’s definitely not for everyone yet. But the average user (who needs a browser, a file manager and maybe an office suite) has no reason to stay on windows besides the convenience of being installed already.

If they can’t bring the people to Win 11, they bring Win 11 to the people instead?

Just install Linux, it’s not that hard. Or at least get a Mac or a Chromebook…

Yea, but also PIA has been independently audited multiple times and their zero logs policy seems to hold up.

Yes, love those posters. And with dune, for example, they’re much more prominent. You’ll really find that one. For Disney stuff? No chance.

Would love to be able to sort by price, not just alphabet.

War schon toll. Mochte aber Es war einmal der Mensch immer etwas mehr.

I mean, sure, they are. But they’re formulaic and uncreative corporate art
