FFS Red Dead Redemption 2 is boring as shit
I should have known better, as the whole cowboy genre is terrible as fuck. Westerns (as boomer Americans call the genre) have the slowest dialogue, the corniest patriarchal story-line, and are obviously filled with a heap ton of other problematic bits. Of course, I had to try as the game got great reviews. I thought I'd try it with the Steam summer sale.
Fuckkkkkkkk the long boring ass cut scenes. OMG pls talk faster and have dialogue that's interesting. The beginning of the game is just 30 minutes of video and riding your horse so slowly through the snow. I thought that my TikTok brain couldn't stand some old slow game from a bygone era, but I'm checking this shit and it was released in 2018!
If I was some prat who loved the mythology of the "settling of the west", a game with a white dude on a horse on a mountain would get me hard. Why can't more games be like Atomic Heart? I wanna defend the land of Stalin and have cut scenes with good dialogue a talking glove that debates theory and a sexy refrigerator that probably wants to murder me.
You're viewing a single thread.
Rdr2 is good and you're a lib
Unironically it has a lot of opportunities to not be a lib in the game. It’s not communist by any means, but you gotta hand it to them you definitely get to kill cops, klan, and loser southerners. I’ve never played Atomic Heart but I remember the talk around it was that the aesthetics were cool but still lib at heart.
Atomic Heart is basically just lib in the sense that it doesn't really care about politics at all. It's set in a communist society but that doesn't really matter, because it's the robot apocalypse anyway.
Which is pretty cool tbh, a game set in a communist society that doesn't constantly monologue at you about how communism no food social credit corruption tyranny is a pretty positive step.
I guess I have to give it a try because I can’t really see how a game like that wouldn’t just blame all the bad things happening to you on the communist society that made the robots.
Granted I haven't actually finished the game so maybe it takes a turn like that eventually. But I got pretty deep into it and as far as I could tell that's not the angle they were approaching it from
Interesting. I might have to pick it up then.
Yeah I read theory
