Video Game General 2: Definitive/Remastered Edition

😐…………… Let’s talk about the GTA 6 Leak.🙂

Its bad?

@RogueBadnik
Trust me, it ain’t that bad. Not even that female Latino protag bit doesn’t bother me.

@NitroFury
Didn’t know that was supposed to be a leak.

Since Nintendo made Art Academy games based on Pokémon and Disney, they should’ve made one for Zelda.

@NitroFury
Oh I’ve seen the usual suspects ts crying over the fact you can play as a woman in the next game

@NitroFury
Any links?

Got to love it when corporations are too rich and lazy to care about plagiarize when it’s their employees doing it.

@NitroFury
I never played any of the GTA games, though a female main character does sound neat (assuming they don’t mess it up).

@icicle wicicle 1517
Most people aren’t actually mad about that, they’re worried that the series won’t be as satirical and parodying of western culture as previous games.

@Mikey
Effectively taking the opposite of the Saint’s Row trajectory and turning into something more like the second Watchdogs.

@Mikey
I don’t think that’s currently possible. The USA has already turn into a parody of itself.

@Lord WyrmSpawN
Basically.

@Meanlucario
We’ll see, I mean the old writer and people left, so I could see GTA 6 being, as Wyrmspawn put it, like Watchdogs, with almost no tongue in cheek humor or satire of any kind.

@Mikey
No I have seen plenty of people online complaining about the inclusion of a female protag

I know people have concerns over the second part abd I can understand that, but there have been people acting like one of the playable characters being a woman means the game is automatically bad/“woke” , which is really dumb

@icicle wicicle 1517
I’m pretty sure you’re seeing really vocal people. One of the best characters in the series was a Latina.

@Mikey
I think you’re missing his point.

@Meanlucario
I don’t think I am.

As much fun as I’m having with Xenoblade 3, I do have a major grievance with it: the targeting system. In the last games, when you targeted an enemy, you could lock the camera so that it was always focused on the enemy you targeted, but as far as I can tell, there doesn’t seem to be a way to do that with this game. There’s been more than one instance where in the middle of a hectic battle with a bunch of enemies, I’ve just been standing around like a dumbass because I ended up targeting an enemy that I was nowhere near, but didn’t realize it because the camera didn’t automatically swing over to focus on them.

@icicle wicicle 1517
The worst part about the controversy is that I’m pretty sure the series already had a female protagonist before, during the early PS1 games. So either (once again) none of them remembers the first 2 games, or they’re deliberately spreading misinformation to stir up anger.

@Mikey
Anything else you remember about the character?

@phoenixacezero
Catalina? She was hot-headed, intelligent and just memorable.

Is it weird that I didn’t know about the biggest twist in “The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awakening” until the Nintendo Switch remake? (specifically about the island being a dream that gets erased from existence after the Wind Fish wakes up although Marin becomes the sole survivor aside from Link and the fish itself should you beat the game without dying even once)

@Mikey
What about moments? What were the moments that made her memorable for you?

Apparently people review bombed Digimon Survive because they were shocked a game they were told was going to be very much like a visual novel was very much like a visual novel.

@phoenixacezero
There’s a lot to explain tbh.

After 20 years I have finally gotten Marinedevimon in Digimon World 2.
