And I’m agreeing with you by adding more context. They’re not PC at all. Even in the way they show sexual misconduct as being bad is through the lens of a “white knight” mindset (male lead must rescue the damsel) or for creepy gross-out gags (old, homeless man flashing people on the street that you must catch).
And those get pretty repetitive and aren’t rewarding enough that I wanna go through that every time. Especially RDR2’s fucking habit of spawning some kind of big animal right the fuck on top of me giving me zero chance to react and making me lose all the animal pelts I’d been collecting right as I am walking up to the motherfucker who buys 'em. 🤬
(I’ve been playing that one recently and it’s reminding me why I stopped)
What am I supposed to explore when I am going back the way I came? The simplest way of doing fast travel still generally requires you find POIs by actually going to their location before you can travel to them instantly.
I’ve done my exploring, now I want to sell all the shit I found and get back to finding more!
None of these games are very PC. Even the most modern ones have humor and ideas stuck firmly in the early 90s and can be in extremely poor taste across all manner of things from misoginy, classism, racism, agism and ablism.
Nah the best bug was cats dying of alcohol poisoning because they’d walk through the tavern, get booze spilled on them, and then lick it off themselves when cleaning. Since they weren’t programmed to drink booze directly, they had 0 tolerance for it and would easily die from it.
From the title I was thinking of, like, Grognak’s Adventure inside of Fallout 4.
But from the body text… Yeah, I don’t really do that. I am usually pretty annoyed by how many servers for games I want to play aren’t actually playing the game itself, but their own game inside the game and making up their own rules. Which is totally fine, but it should advertise it somehow or not even be public as many of these groups just kick randos out anyway.
I do like a lot of mods that were inspired by these games within games tho. ARMA Life only exists because people were already trying to play the normal game that way, and with the mod the rules can be more easily enforced through scripts instead of requiring hands-on management from an admin.
I am just gonna pretend like Epic and HB banned it only after see all this PR work they’re trying to do to save this god awful looking piece of “art.”
And just becsuse the comments here don’t seem to know the real root issue: The game originally featured a child protagonist, and that was what Valve was sent to review. They only changed the protag to an adult after the rejection and now they are throwing a hissy fit over their pedo game being banned.
