I've been talking to and playing videogames with a friend from high school every now and then the past year. He's a gymbro and sometimes uses gay and LGBTQ+ as degrading words while playing games, I've been meaning to point it out to him that I think it's shit behavior that has no place in our progressive day and age. I don't really surround myself with these sort of people and he seems intelligent enough to grasp the concept. I sent him the GTA trailer today and he said he thinks it's too LGBTQ for him compared to other GTAs. I went on a rant about the wording and he felt extremely attacked. I think I figured it out, it's woke to him because it makes fun of the gymbro influencer mentality he identifies with. Good grief can this testosterone driven thinking just die out already.

Oh and btw woke just means not being asleep anymore. I think the opposite would be a sleeper sheeple stuck in the past. But you do you. I do me. I love me some sexual spectrums and non-race oriented worldviews.

Maybe you should tell him that most of the trailer is based on real footage:

Ok right, there you go, not saying Vice City in the 90's was as bad as this, when you keep screwing over pockets of people, this is what happens then.

Vice City of old was fun, there was a damn dirt bike track not to far from the city centre, North Vice Point (I grew up near there). A gang of us used to just ditch school early  and just tear ass over there, huge jumps.... good times.... doubt its there anymore I haven't been there in years...

I haven't played GTA since the top down era and have little desire to return to it. I'm mostly over open worlds, to start with.

 GTA1 is still a classic.

Check it out boys I agitated a Trump sissy in the gaming thread 

I'm not fully a Trump supporter, but I prefer him over Biden atm. I always felt Biden was just a fuckin' chess-piece, a fuckin' old ass wrinkly script-reader. Isn't it the way with American politics, if the main president falls, the Vice-President takes over.... so the V.P is Kamala Harris? Seemed like a feminest plan all along, the man falls, down the stairs in this case, then the Woman Rises from the Ashes, To Save AMERICA.....  etc etc, what-fucking-ever, hey well their plan didn't fuckin' work out did it, Biden's still standing.... oopsie-daisy, we are still waiting for your plan B then huh?... punks.....

(This is another song that needs to be on the GTA6 soundtrack as well btw:)

It's funny how you're just assuming I'm this left leaning American. I'm from Switzerland. We don't do banana republic politics. We have an actual democracy. You're just a little ball of hatred following whatever angry circlejerk gets offered to you on a silver tablet. Can't wait to find you in GTA6 online and twerk on your car

oh yeah GTA VI really needs some SFV Acid in the soundtrack 

*rides off into the sunset on his left-leaning dirtbike*

I didn't assume anything, I don't even know you. Just fulfilling the function of a messageboard, expression. I didn't grow up on social media, I grew up on MSN Messenger and messageboards and that. Which made me a communicator and a storyteller, I tend to say what i feel like saying depending on the situation, if it offends you sometimes, great, then say it did, I'll happily reply.

My parents are half Kiwi/ half Haiti, my mother's been through some shit in the slums here believe me.... but I think we think the same way as well... but Vice City has a way of screwing with your mind, my moms did most of the work in the house from what I remember....

Well if you even ATTEMPT to even try and twerk on my "car", I've sold a few of my old vehicles, but besides my trusty Sanchez, if I have to travel further, I have a motherfuckin' custom Maverick helicopter, good luck trying to twerk your fat ass on top of its rotorblades, punk

I bought Alan Wake (Remastered) and Alan Wake II. Towards the end of ep 2 on the first game. So far, so okay. Gameplay is a little bit clunky and samey for my tastes. I can see myself getting bored repeating fuck all ammo, shining a torch at, and dodging, the taken dudes for another 4 episodes. Probably would prefer a Telltale games approach to mechanics. 

That being said, the story and setting are cool, I'm loving the overall vibe.

Have you tried the MyHouse.wad ? 

It is a piece of art! 

He was uploading the Wad on DoomWorld with this background info that his close childhood friend recently passed away. 
After the funeral he got some personal belongings from his friend's parents and floppy's with unfinished Doom Maps + Very Dark disturbing sketches. 

He included the Journal and photos with the WAD and as you read you will understand that he goes very deep into the house map himself and even nightmares starts to haunting him. You get so confused and lost in this map and everything just changes all the time it is so brilliant!

Not yet. I keep meaning to and unfortunately I've spoiled a big chunk of it by watching someone's blind play-through - everything until the 'friendly dog, big dog & block of flats' section (description left deliberately vague to not spoil for anyone else but those that have played it will know what I mean !).

Might download & save it for my visit back to family over Christmas as I'lll be without the internet for about a week or so.

I really liked the 2D GTA games 

One thing I'm glad they lost when they moved from 2d to 3d (and why I've not revisited them): Lives (and quite limited amount if I remember correctly

I could be wrong but I remember the PC demo was timer-based rather than lives-based and that definitely encouraged more freedom for exploration and mayhem than the retail version (by the time I was on the final mission of each island I was driving so carefully so I didn't have to replay everything again!)

Playing Hogwarts Legacy at the moment on ps5, it's gorgeous 

Outer wilds on switch just got released an looks extremely polished and runs really smooth so far 

Im so in the mood for start playing Disco Elysium on Switch 
Some gamers even say it is one of the best RPG's ever made!

Its really great but it was a bit too weird and dark for my desire to spend a relaxing weekend. Still worth playing

Like too much story telling or too much menu diving/tactic stuff and less action?

Yeah the menu navigating dialogue options was just not fun for me.

20 years later, they make a sequel
