  1. It's been my experience that autistic people are often far more intelligent than the rest of the population. Brilliant in some cases. I'm not saying be proud of a disability. I'm in a wheelchair, and I fucking hate it. But it is what it is. I'm also dumb as a god damn rock. I edit and re-edit my posts probably a dozen times before I post them, as I know I've said something moronic somewhere in them. Most of the time, my brain is only for moving my limbs. I drop it somewhere just about every day, and just have to hope I find it before the frickin' dogs eat it.
  2. The thing that pisses me off is people from other countries saying that we all talk with a heavy southern drawl, like a redneck. Sure there are a lot of people that do talk like that (I'm one of them) but there's a hell of a lot more. Have you ever met someone from New Jersey or Wisconsin? How about California? We also have people who live on the northern border that pick up a Canadian accent. A lot of white kids in San Diego often pick up a Mexican accent because they're right on the border and go into Tijuana on a regular basis to have fun. I'll admit that for a reason I don't even know, I've always wanted to visit Tijuana. I've been south of the border several times. With Mexico, it was always in the Yucatan peninsula. I was thinking of taking a road trip to Teotihuacan. Why am I getting off topic AGAIN? The point I'm trying to make is that there are a vast number of accents. Several coming from immigrants. Which is no bad thing. More diversity in this former country is needed.
  3. Roger Clark (Arthur) has a YouTube channel if you want to look into him. @Rain Dew got me a shoutout from him for xmas last year. I have it saved on multiple places. Phone, thumb drive, computer, etc. As for them being in any other games, I have no idea with a couple exceptions. Benjamin Byron Davis (Dutch) and Rob Weithoff (John) were obviously in RDR1.

  4. I've been trying to get into voice acting, and I found out that game studios are booked long in advance. For example Rockstar was holding auditions as early as 2012 to find actors for the new characters in RDR2. There were over 2000 people who worked on the game for voice acting. The vast majority of them uncredited. Not just the Van der Linde gang, but all the others as well as random NPC's. All that said, I don't see any studio hiring multiple actors for custom characters.
  5. I have my Hotmail linked up with the default email app. Since I never use Gmail except for rare occasions, it wouldn't have made any sense for me to link it to my default app.
  6. All of our clips will be 1 hour playthroughs. We're recording them on the PlayStation clip capabilities, and it doesn't go past 1 hour. She's not a big fan of them. I know she loves Resident Evil, but can't play the latest one because it's first person. With me, I'm working on multiple different clips doing different things in RDR2. As soon as I get them ready, and am happy with what I have, I'll start uploading them.
  7. I unfortunately have to agree on part of that. Physical media will eventually be a thing of the past. Everything will become a DDL, and we won't be able to stop it whether we want to or not. It's already starting with several systems. You can get pretty much any game you want through their online store. And a huge number of games in stores like Gamestop are just a case with a digital code inside, instead of a cart or disc. So before long (I estimate within the next 10 years) physical media will be gone and disc/cart capable systems will no longer be made.
  8. Honestly, I prefer physical media as opposed to DDL's. That's not to say I don't have a lot of them. I have 123 DDL's on my Switch alone. Maybe it's coming from being a classic gamer. Everything from N64 and PS1 back is physical cartridges and disc's. Maybe it's a worry that I'll lose it if something corrupts, or my computer crashes completely beyond repair unless I format it and reinstall Windows. I'm not a trusting woman. I know that as soon as I trust something it will fuck me over. Physical seems to be more trustworthy in my opinion.
  9. Gaming is a good stress relief, but not the best. With gaming I can go into it and just start killing as much as I want. But the best stress relief is my baby, Lady. Fur babies are the best stress relief. I can be having the worst day imaginable, but all I have to do is hold her, and the whole world is all right again.
  10. When both people and animals have abandoned a specific region of the country, you know it's bad. From what I gather, even the fish are running down the road yelling FUCK THIS!
  11. It's possible, but definitely not probable. People are being online more and more these days. They use things like Zoom to talk with friends and whatnot. They game online instead of driving somewhere. Those of us that don't game online can download games through the online services of our preferred platform. We no longer have to drive to Gamestop or any other retailer to pick up the latest game. We can simply download it. So while we as gamers wouldn't make the hugest impact unless all gamers everywhere chose this route, it's still an option that could have the potential to help reverse climate change.
  12. Ok I downloaded the demo, and the game is definitely creepy as hell. There's jump scares in it, which adds to the whole experience of the game.
  13. It won't last long. Nintendo will destroy this one immediately when they find out about it. Unless people can download or buy it some other way, no one is going to be able to experience it. It does look interesting, though. Being that I've really gotten into horror games in the last several months, I would definitely play it.
  14. So far, my favorite game with time travel incorporated in it is Zelda OoT. I know @Shagger already mentioned it, so initially I wasn't going to reply. But OoT is such a classic, (and one of the most popular in the franchise) that I finally decided I had to. Being that you're required to travel back and forth through time, it's just amazing. I'm sure that all Back To The Future games out there involve time travel. I've never played one, or even seen the movies, but I know the premise of them.
  15. Go for the deluxe. I didn't realize it when I made this thread, but I have the deluxe. I have no idea the comparison between MK 8 deluxe, and regular MK 8, as I'd never played either one until I got mine the other day.
  16. Last month my dog farted at least 231 times within a single frickin' week.
  17. Yes I've played it. I think it's a bit closer to 1920, as Jack is in his later teens in it. He was about 12 in the epilogue of RDR2, which took place in 1907. It's a great game, but for the gaming material I'm not a particular fan of the graphics. I get that for the PS3, the graphics were phenomenal. But I've been spoiled by the lifelike graphics for the current gen of games. But I still love my 8 bit graphics on the older systems. Hell, I still love the 2 bit graphics of the Atari 2600.
  18. I don't sell them because I currently don't need the money. I'm saving them for emergencies for when I absolutely need the money and am completely broke. Money tends to go quickly, but the gold bars hold their value, and stay that way. If I need the money, I'll sell one or two depending on how much I need. Until then, I hold onto them. I can hunt and sell the hides to a butcher, but that usually doesn't pay a whole lot. Especially for poor hides, but still it puts a couple bucks in your pocket. You can also collect alligator eggs and sell them. They pay an handsome price, especially if you have a lot of them. They're worth $2.50 each. So if you have a full 99 of them, it gets you $247.50, but it's hard to get a full 99 if you don't know where to find them. As for the guns, I've never seen a message telling me what gun I need for anything. My go-to is the Springfield rifle. After I acquire the Rolling Block and put a long scope on it, I use it as a sniper rifle for animals at a longer range than the scope on the Springfield can hit. Also if you're wanting perfect hides you first need to get the buck antler trinket (it increases your chance for perfect hides), then use a rifle to hunt them. The only time/reason I use a repeater is for the challenge to kill 2 animals in the same dead eye use, and when I'm killing random small birds. So far I've gotten 3 different song birds, a couple sparrows, blue jay, robin, woodpeckers, and a couple others that I can't think of at the moment. If you're hunting, (and using a rifle) regular ammo is fine. If you're fighting enemies, use Express ammo. It does the most damage out of all the ammo with the exception of explosive ammo. Typically I only use explosive ammo on the legendary alligator. Explosive ammo doesn't harm a legendary hide, and with the gator being so damn big and fast, explosive ammo is what it takes. If you know where to get the red chestnut Arabian, you will find an obelisk on the west side of the river not far from the horse. Inspect it and you will get a treasure map that will ultimately lead you to 6 gold bars. The statue puzzle nets you 3 gold bars. Also near the obelisk is a ritual site that you can get a mask from. The Jack Hall map that you get from Cristo Despino gets you 2 gold bars. You can also find 2 bars at the train wreck site, and one in Limpany. After chapter 3, in the ruins of Braithwaite Manor, there is one beneath the floorboards. You can also get Catherine's brooch off her charred body. That's just a few of the bars you can find. You can also find a hell of a lot of gold nuggets. If you go to Fairvale Shanty, the loot box in there refills an infinite number of times. There's a gold nugget, platinum watch, and a random piece of jewelry. Typically a platinum earring, occasionally a platinum buckle. If you ride away just far enough (which isn't particularly far) the box refills and you can go right back and loot it again. If you need any more help, I can probably help you out. Especially finding a good number of unique items.
  19. Gmail doesn't come with an iPhone. You have to go to the app store and download it. But if you use Gmail for any reason, it's worth downloading. But my primary email is still Hotmail.
  20. Goblin Sword is a perfect example of this. It doesn't have any kind of ending. It just stops. There's no final boss. There's no rewards. It just fucking stops. I thought it was a great game in the beginning. But with no conclusion, I regretted buying it. I won't delete it simply for the fact that I paid actual money for it. The graphics are what you would see on a Sega Genesis. One other thing that bugs me, is that you can't have more than one game. Once you play it, that's it. Nothing left to do, all you can do is replay where you have already been. One game that I love is RDR2, and the epilogue doesn't really have an ending either. It's left wide open. I can continue playing, but after a while, there's not a whole hell of a lot to do.
  21. In story mode I'm currently holding onto 15 gold bars and 2 gold ingots. I sold 3 or 4 gold bars in the beginning of chapter 2, because I needed the money for things like guns, food, ammo, saddles, and other equipment. If I decided to sell them, the gold bars could get me $7,500, and the ingots together would get me another $600. So in total that would all get me $8,100. I don't particularly need the money right now so I see no reason to sell any of them. For those needing money, all you have to do is go hunting. You can sell carcasses and hides to all of the butchers in the game. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ That out of the way, for the end of Red Dead Online, it's been a long time coming. It's been one of the worst attempts at an online game. People tried it, didn't like it, and left it behind. Sure, there are some die hard fans of it, but the majority didn't find it worth playing. I watched @Rain Dew play it a couple times, and even she didn't like it despite liking online gaming. It's a well known fact that I personally hate online gaming, so I never gave it a shot. I've tried other online games, and lost something of myself for playing them. I felt like some kind of prisoner, and that I was sick or something. I just couldn't enjoy it. So I won't miss RDR2 Online.
  22. Very true. Most people have either switched to Gmail, or simply started out with that one. But those of us who are older signed up for Hotmail because it was the biggest free email service at the time. After years of using it, we just decided to stick with what we knew. As for linking with a mobile device, my email is linked right up with my iPhone problem free. I do have a Gmail app but that's just because Gmail is what's linked to my YouTube channels.
  23. I'm just catching up on emails and a few tasks that I have. I'm working on an FAQ, and a few other projects that need my attention.
