Why did you feel the need to be a dick about it? Just block and move along.

DLSS can't possibly look better than no upscaling. I don't care how good the fucking AI slop machine is at generating fake frames. Upscaling in my head is synonymous with AI slop.

I played GTA IV mostly because the mechanics were fucking awesome. The driving was incredible for an open world game like that. Euphoria was dope.

The first seconds of the GTA V gameplay trailers hinted that they neutered the driving. Then they announced the driving was ported from a Midnight Club game and that was the last nail in the coffin for me.

Tried the game once at a friend's house and the gameplay feel was so shit I never played it again. I knew I'd always be distracted by it.

GTA IV had a superficial story? I certainly did not feel that way about that game. Niko is the best protagonist they've ever had; a great protagonist in general.

Then by default it should never be considered safe. Honestly, this "open" release... it makes me wonder about ulterior motives.

Has anyone actually analyzed the source code thoroughly yet? I've seen a ton of reporting on its open source nature but nothing about the detailed nature of the source.

FOSS only = safe if the code has been audited in depth.

Long gone? I still have my original discs!

Linux is the future of gaming as well as the future of gaming's past.

If you're the Adams brothers making Dwarf Fortress then yeah, I'd agree with you.

You're 100% allowed to just enjoy it and not worry about the drama. That said, we're looking at the fifteenth year on the horizon with no follow up to Skyrim.

A "AAA" studio taking fifteen years to make a game is unacceptable. Especially when its a game that guarantees massive sales thanks to the IP's pedigree.

Bethesda leadership is incompetent.

Halo was very much like this. The overshield and cloaking power ups were so sparingly used in the early games. Did you enjoy Halo as well?

I'll never buy from them again. #fuckai
