Henry Cavill Wants A Red Dead Redemption Movie
Reality vs Adventure replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming News
I don't think there is much of a market for westerns unless it's something like the show Westworld. And who would play the role as Arthur? I don't think some celebrity who brushes teeth with diamond dust and wipes ass with handmaiden silk will fill the boots of Arthur. -
Best game of the generation so far (PS4/XBox One Era)?
Reality vs Adventure replied to DylanC's topic in Gaming Forum
Not many games left to make it on this last generation list. I'm wondering what has been the overall best? So far we got: 1) TLOU2 2) Bloodborne 3) Witcher 3 4) Horizon Zero Dawn 5) God of War 6) GTA 5 I'll add even though it came out on the previous generation, but one of those 'cross generation' games 7) FIFA 8) Motor GP (Cyberpunk 2077 didn't make it) Will Elden Ring and Horizen Forbidden West make the list? -
Wow, Japan really is embracing the gaming industry. That's pretty damn awesome. All high schools need to embrace some kind of niche to help prepare students for careers. I'll say it a billion times, high school needs to do away with junk and start becoming more internship oriented. And the esports program is probably one of the more interesting ones. Seriously, the senior level should do away with all courses and only work towards a career. "We don't need no education. We don't need no thought control. No dark sarcasm in the classroom.

GTA 4 fist fighting is terrible!
Reality vs Adventure replied to Reality vs Adventure's topic in Video Games
I haven't come across much fist fighting encounters in GTA 5 except for the occasional mugging lol. In GTA4 I can't imagine having to fight 5 others. I swear that when I hit the button to swing, he starts pushing air. And the kick button, he doesn't kick, he jumps. -
The trilogy is GTA3, San Andreas, and Vice city, and left off 1 and 2. I've also been debating Vice city and some of the older titles whether to get the ps2-ps3 version or the trilogy. After watching youtube videos, I think to play the old games, you are only in it for the story. Because to settle for anything less than GTA 5 with it's fantastic gameplay and amazing graphics, just doesn't seem justified to me. Everything seems the same except one is modern and another is old.

I am really liking GTA 4 as I've just started playing it, but for such a cool game the fist fighting is completely awful!!! Does it get better? Or is it gonna be a dirty snot rag the whole way through?

You may say that one side is insensitive and the other is politically correct, but ironically, the more insensitive people get, then the more sensitive other people get. And those insensitive people want to allow all poison to circulate the air and let it vent on its own. While those sensitive people want to prevent the poison from spreading in the first place. A publisher dropping a developer doesn’t mean they can’t find someone else, so no freedom has been violated. Whatever the hell political correctness even means these days, I’m starting to think the meaning has changed. So way to go for the publisher for being ‘politically correct’ if the meaning now means that you have a moral standard, neutrality, empathy. And those insensitive un-empathetic types that simply want society to suffer and become outraged instead of preventing it in the first place are what I will now call ‘politically incorrect.' As far as the SWAT game goes, it seems they want to exploit a sensitive issue for promotion. Yes, it is a real life issue, but they also have a choice to leave off the mission if it means losing a publisher over it if that was the reason. They may have the right to expression, and others have the right of choice not to publish it, whether that be political correctness, ‘neo political correctness’ or protecting their assets. I say neo political correctness because the term has been perverted to mean ‘social justice warrior’ as anti SJW propaganda. You say to let them release it and spread and then let the people decide. Now why would a business put their reputation on the line for bad taste? Don’t they have a right to decide what to publish as part of their portfolio? Censorship would be when the government forces a publisher to not publish something. And there is such a thing as ‘reverse censorship’ when governments try to force the banning of censorship for the reason to allow bigotry into the public. In the state of Florida they tried to ban Facebook from being able to censor politicians at a time when controversies and misinformation was being given about the pandemic, inciting violence, and election conspiracies. That’s a dangerous example of ‘reverse censorship.’ So you may call the right of Facebook censorship as being politically correct, but it’s actually safety precaution. Not to defend Facebook, because they sure as hell let a lot of dangerous rhetoric slip; but obviously politicians have a greater responsibility and shouldn’t have the right to spread dangerous lies and conspiracies and a company not have the right to censor it.

Do you like to sometimes stand when gaming?

Just throw down some peat moss and hay and I'm ready to game like an animal. 😆 -
What games take the longest time to start up?
Reality vs Adventure replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
AC Valhalla took 8 minutes from clicking on application to ready to play. After it's latest reconstructing update, now it takes 6 minutes. -
What will be the trend for gaming in 2022 probably?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Jayson's topic in Gaming Forum
There are 3 big titles coming in February-Dying Light 2, Elden Ring, and Horizon Forbidden West. And that's about it for the ps4 console. I don't see a whole lot of people being able to get the ps5 yet, so whatever comes out in mid to late 2022, how many people are even gonna be able to play it? -
Kids are turning to video games to help with their anxiety
Reality vs Adventure replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming News
A lot of people don’t have many hobbies and if they did, it probably requires more money than gaming or transportation and also patience/concentration to learn a new craft which many sugar crazed young adults may find boring. Even doing sports for some can be intimidating whether it be not wanting to look like a fool due to inexperience, not knowing anyone else, or afraid of self image. Gaming is easy access. So that sets it far apart from other hobbies as a better alternative. And if parents get involved as stated, then those things can be family fun which replaces the old board games; so that can help them from being asocial. Parents have to break their barriers of false adulthood and spend quality time gaming with their children, if that is the preferred hobby to reduce anxiety. We know gaming as a hobby reduces anxiety for different reasons. And it doesn't hurt to have the support of research to present backed information for those that have a total misconception of gaming. -

Bad game design vs. subjectively unintuitive game design
Reality vs Adventure replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
If you don't like a game, it could be both. There could be something of bad design that you couldn't quite put your finger on, at the same time subjectively just didn't like the character or story, or some other aspect. Or it could be bad game design that created frustration, so you blame something else that you wouldn't have hated naturally. For me, I probably subjectively hate a game first because I'm ignorant to exactly what bad game design is. I can't recall a really bad design. Except maybe Bloodborne and similar games that are challenging on purpose, which to me takes my interest out of it. So maybe that is only subjective on my part too since it is their intention to make it difficult, so I can't blame design. -
What video game will the future IRL look most like?
Reality vs Adventure replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
I'd go with the GTA world becoming reality. Shootouts galore with billboards and radio openly telling you to support honest lies. Redneck rampage around the corner; stop lights? Who cares, lets drive when and where we want. The extreme gets normalized. Gun shops sell grenades. Planes crashing in your back yard. Fender benders is means to pop some caps. The popo is just another gang on the streets. With all that, everyone still has a nice ride... -

Are there any games you don't download patches/updates for?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming Forum
The only thing keeping me online is the Assassin's Creed games where I can earn credit to get gear. If it weren't for that I would have turned the network off a long time ago. Updates are leverage developers use in order to half ass games knowing they can always update it. I would half ass my job too if I can update any mistake without consequence. -
Why don't more celebs take jobs in video games?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming Forum
They probably don't want to see their reputation abused by getting tea bagged or beat up a million times. If there were more of them in games, it would probably boost the gaming industry. But then again, it would take away from customizing your own characters which is far better. I doubt they would pay a celebrity just to have their character as an option. And we sure don't need to be forced to play someone we don't want. But we can dream of some funny as hell scenarios like Jim Carrey playing Trevor in GTA5. 🤣 -
What are the most depressing video games?
Reality vs Adventure replied to StaceyPowers's topic in Gaming Forum
Haven't played, but it seems What Remains of Edith Finch will fall into that category or Shadow of Destiny where you investigate your own murder -
Do you ever keep a journal about the games you play?
Reality vs Adventure replied to Kane99's topic in Gaming Forum
I can see how writing a review may be a kind of journal because you have to recall what you felt and observed. A journal can even help to write a review for later. I wish I kept a journal over the 2 year period playing AC Odyssey, and I'm still playing it. Because I know if I try to put in context what I felt back then, it probably won't be as emotional and descriptive today. But, it would always be fun to write about my favorite games anytime. -
A game is anything that has a challenge, strategy, or interactive story
