Is religion necessary?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Debashis's topic in Debate, Politics, & Religion
Religion isn't necessary for anything. It's just people pounding their chest thinking they are morally superior while they always call for blood. It belittles human intelligence, rationality, science and progression. Put it this way, when the world fell into the Dark Ages, it was because of religion and all the sciences, philosophy, art were oppressed from humans. Then what followed was a rebirth period or the Renaissance and look at all the great things that were accomplished. Then after the Renaissance was the Enlightenment period, known as the age of reason, where there was great emphasis on science and human ethics/individuality/rationality. Religion takes all those things away. It takes away rationality and critical thinking, takes away science and technology and healthcare, takes away philosophy and human rights, takes away the arts, takes away liberty and individuality, takes away independence/freedom of mind, it takes away the natural evolution and progression of humanity. Religion is easily infiltrated by power seekers and authoritarians who exploit religion for sinister purposes. -
What show are you currently watching?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Debashis's topic in Movies & TV
I don't have Netflix because being way out in the boonies doesn't have that kind of streaming. I depend on DVD. I am currently watching Prison Break and The Following. Both are great -
That right there is great input. Sometimes things in the gaming experience is lost for one reason or another from not paying attention, or forgetting, or confusion, or whatever. But I vividly recall being able to put your saddle on a horse when you want. My experience though, trying to tame a horse, I am distanced from my old mount and things just go haywire from there once I have a new mount, which prevents me from saving it.

Which PlayStation console is your favorite based on design?

I haven’t looked that closely. I put a towel over it to keep the dust off when I’m done. 😆 -
Do you have any favorite game developer?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Heatman's topic in Gaming Forum
I haven’t even thought of that where Microsoft may have Ubisoft in their sights. Red flags. If Microsoft wants to accumulate Ubisoft, then we would have no doubts at all that Microsoft is seeking a monopoly, which they got away with a monopoly lawsuit twice now. -
I did come across as aggressive I think. You are right, you can save mounts. What I was trying to infer was that you can’t save them when you want. After taming a horse, you still have to make the adventure of saving it elsewhere. And you can easily lose it if you are attacked and bucked off, which you admit comes from a pack of wolves. Well those mother fuckin wolves are always around after you tame a horse it seems. It’s like stealing a car in GTA5 and fuckin spikes are in the road out of nowhere sending u flying out the windshield.

Reality vs Adventure replied to Heatman's topic in Gaming Forum
Yeah but Ubisoft made a side deal with Microsoft somehow that was part of the entire deal with Microsoft/Activision deal, signed and stamped. No other developer got privilege like that. I wonder how it happened to include Ubisoft in the deal; kind of out there right? -
Gravity Rush 2 Remaster coming to PS5 and PC?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming News
I've been looking forward to playing this game since I was recommended a few years ago. I always thought it looked pretty fucking awesome. I held back from buying the game because, who the hell fucking knows why? -
That's hard to distinguish competition between the two especially since its from the same developer that has similar mechanics for the two games. It's a matter of taste or scenery. Both are legendary games. All I can say depends on my experience playing the two. Both are brilliant. I think there is better mechanic in a police chase than there is hunted by the law in RDR2. GTA5 you can smash into things but there is always a street to swerve into. RDR2 you can literally ride your horse to oblivion, get bucked off at the start of a fight, and left with your dick in your hand. So I will go with GTA 5 because it gives the player a little more control over situations. I think GTA 5 has better shooting mechanics. RDR2 was a bit chaotic with shooting and being able to revive your health with tonics which was not user friendly with controls. Both games lack the ability of save functions like saving a horse or car. That's the reality though they try to bring too gaming. And that reality is not necessary. In fact, not being able to save your mount or car when you want is a great flaw. But the developer wants to make a reality and make it hard. I'm not here to game to play Sims. I do not want a user unfriendly game. That is what RDR2 is and that is what GTA5 sort of is. GTA5 is a little tad bit more user friendly as a gamer. I don't game to be punished like RDR2 does. How is RDR2 different than a Soul's game? You get punished. I'd rather be punished driving my way out hanging out the window shooting at the mother fuckers. And that car shooting mechanic sucks with GTA 5. Damn. I'm dissing Rockstar.

It baffles me sometimes the decisions they make for such a popular developer. They did make a big win though with the Microsoft deal, which granted Ubisoft special access to cloud gaming. I don't know how they managed that privilege, but it's a win for them. Lose some win some I guess. -

At this point, I also agree with you there. Game developers have a bad reputation when it comes to the way they treat employees. Ubisoft may be my favorite game developer, but their leadership needs a change for the betterment of employees. Ubisoft does have labor unions so I expect there are things in place to protect employees, so as a conscious consumer, to me that isn't grounds to boycott them. They have the tools needed to aid employees. Sounds shallow on my part, but if their union isn't protecting them, they should go on strike or vote for a new one that will. If they get oppressed at that point by the union and the company, then that's when consumers may be the answer to boycott. I don't know what all has happened there the past couple years so I don't know if things got better or not. If a developer had rampant abuse against employees without a labor union, then they may need some intervention to help them. -
Ever use the video game hotlines back in the day?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming Forum
Wow, that would be brilliant to bring back!!!! -
That would be interesting playing poker in VR; but I have to say I wouldn’t trust anything in that arena.

Reality vs Adventure replied to Kane99's topic in Playstation
I don’t like any of the PlayStation designs. The ps5 is the worst design out of them all. It’s a big clunk, not knowing whether to stand or lay it. Standing it, really? That’s an accident waiting to happen. I love the quality in ps5 gaming, but the new design is straight ignorance. Stop fucking with us, my message to Sony. -
Games heading our way in February...
Reality vs Adventure replied to Dismal_Bliss's topic in Gaming News
At this point, I'm not sure what to think about other's opinions anymore. Some of the best games I've played have had "baffling mediocracy". So I'm still looking forward to playing the game. -

My favorite is Ubisoft. I've come to love all their games from Assassin's Creed, to Far Cry, to Immortals Fenyx Rising, to Tom Clancy, to Watch Dogs. I have found their games to be very user friendly with the controls and gameplay; the historical legendary fame of assassins creed; the gameplay and graphics of their popular games. Ubisoft is a legend in the gaming world. -
What's your most anticipated video games of 2024?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Heatman's topic in Gaming Forum
I don't know anymore. Every time a hit comes out people say it isn't good. What is good then? WTF are people looking for? That's the question. -
Are you getting a pet any time soon?
Reality vs Adventure replied to svjiminfxv's topic in General Chat
No, I'm not talking about leaving. I'm talking about a pet holding me back from fighting. Right now I have no attachments. -
It's in the genetic makeup, not something that is developed over time. I thought that quite interesting too. I've always had bad reactions to certain sounds growing up and it actually is my DNA. Who would have thought some gene makes you hate sounds...😆 I find it ridiculously funny but it is also not something to be messed with. Chewing is the main thing for me, and I also hate it when people clear their throats. It triggers a highly aggressive reaction with me.
-
Bwahahahaha!!!! I hate the sound of people eating too!!! If I talk on the phone with someone who is eating I want to strangle them. I actually have a DNA report that says I have misophonia, a genetic trait where a person gets rage at specific sounds like chewing.

Reality vs Adventure replied to svjiminfxv's topic in General Chat
I'm thinking about getting some new pets. I want to get a pair of cats, boy and girl, and a puppy. Not sure if I want to adopt adult cats or kittens. I originally wanted to adopt grown cats because I feel like I don't want to get too attached. My reasoning is because the future in my country is uncertain and I'm not sure I want to start a new family for the next 15 years or so when it's a possibility that circumstances may separate us. So I'm thinking of just waiting to see what happens after the elections of 2024. That's really the only thing stopping me right now from getting new pets. -
Yes!!! It's important to be able to print pictures because my amazing beautiful best buddy cat recently passed away, but luckily I have pictures. I don't have a printer but I used Walmart photo to create a giant collage of pictures of her. That way if something happens and I lose digital photos, I will have it on frame. I bought a bunch of frames too so I can print more pictures of her. It makes me so happy every time I look at them. We can't always depend on memories or electronics. The photos they printed at Walmart are great quality too.
