Arcade for the casual.

For the price of like two of those you could get a hobbyist to build you a full sized cabinet with hundreds of games.

My biggest complaint with 3 was the lackluster map. It was too much of the same.

I've heard this one is closer to 2, where there is different types of environments.

If that's true, I'd get it. Don't know if I'd get it on PC though, cause JC3 ran like total shit for the longest time and I had just upgraded when I got that.

Failure is such a subjective term.

Most people I know supposedly have it way better than me, but then I find out they are absolutely miserable at their jobs, hate their families they rushed into, are in debt up to their eyeballs, etc. etc.

It makes my life look pretty good in comparison even if I don't have some great job and live in a basement.

Basically, just do what you can to be happy. Stop giving a shit what society thinks, cause you'll probably just make yourself miserable living up to expectations that are not your own.

I replayed it about a month ago and I was cringing at a lot of the dialogue. Especially between Otacon and Snake on the tanker.

I mean, I get why it is the way it is. They needed to convey information to the player and that was the best way to do it and it wasn't like there was a blueprint or anything on how to do this without looking weird as fuck. So I give it a bit of a pass.

And I mean, at its core it has that charm of "it's a video game" that has seemingly been lost as everyone tries to make games exactly like films now.

In one of his apology videos (for not uploading basically any new videos) within the last 2 years he explicitly said he was going to do shorter, lower-production videos because all the production was the reason for the large delays between videos and it was burning him out.


lol I'll never believe that but I also never saw that.

That dude seems obsessed with production values at this point, to a fault. I'd love if he went back to the older style but I don't think he will no matter what he says.

And the second one I did gave me 100 gold nuggets, and like a random treasure chest I was given at level 10 gave me like 50 gold nuggets.

Yet free roam missions pay out like only 5 dollars max?

Nah it's pretty easy to get the dollar a day horse fee. Just hunt a single animal ffs

People are complaining about money in the game and money isn't even hard to get if you do more than grief. Prices are ridiculous bit so far I've been doing fine with starter weapons because most players don't seem to understand how the shooting works. Weapon prices should still be halved tho

The real problem is that the world is empty as fuck and online missions are uninspired.

BTW Scott the Woz is a good channel, especially if you like the old Jontron videos. That's probably why the subreddit was dedicated to Scott for awhile.


I've actually been enjoying his videos, which is why I was like "what?" when he got that name drop.

Also Flex Tape 2 was legit the most requested video over this year. I don't think he was making that up.

I mean, when an entire group seems to hate your guts you gotta cater to the ones who love you.

Scott the Woz is an actual youtube channel. It's been popping up in all my recommended videos for some reason the past week.

Jon just made a joke about how his subreddit replaced him with some dude named Scot the Woz.

Did they really do that and it boosted his popularity in the algorithm or something, or is this just a really weird coincidence?

fit has a 5 star ratings. ok? that just means its safest in its class, still not as safe as most medium sized or large sized cars.


You said they didn't have good crash ratings though, which is blatantly false.

Say what you mean next time.

Honestly, people like what they like for the reasons they like so I don't really care, but don't act like they're just dogshit just because you are paranoid you're going to get into a crash all the time or something.
