Yeah, can we please just stop talking about him?
Like, especially for things that have absolutely nothing to do with him…
The best bit of is I don’t think he even said anything? He said he didn’t play GTA because it got to the bit where you have to shoot cops and he couldn’t morally do it, that’s super dumb but I haven’t seen anything he said about the characters and no one in here is talking about it.
I think people have imagined how he probably feels and now we have to hear about that too!

How you play a video game is as much a moral choice as writing/reading about the same.
I’ve found it’s a huge red flag when someone’s opinions are always hardline and binary like this. It’s literally choosing to be unreasonable when you never consider nuance, context, etc. I would agree that some issues are black and white, but most things in the world are shades of grey…
For future reference, whenever you show a graphic of a globe, please rotate the globe such that North America is facing the viewer. This is considered good etiquette. Thanks
I know it’s not relevant here, but since we’re talking globe etiquette: if your graphic of a globe shows New Zealand, be sure to shop it out to not reveal its location. At least cover it with a spoiler tag.
You forgot to censor N** Z******
Why, though?
Pretty clearly a joke.
Oh
America is essentially the center of the universe, so to exclude it from a photo of earth is pretty much an overt hostile act. A hostile act towards the people with the F-22s.
Source: am American, have to deal with other Americans that are less aware of the world.
EUROPA EST MAXIME MOMENTI
Lol what?
Pretty clearly a joke.
Poe’s law is strong with this one!
But then all the nice countries are occluded, I don’t get it?
LETS BRING FREEDOM TO THE GLOBE GRAPHIC 🚔🍔🦅🦅🦅🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷
Damn Elon is the very fucking last thing I’d think of when I consider video game reviews. What’s Bill Gate’s opinion?
GTA made a name for itself by scaring parents for being violent and edgy. They do the same thing now, except it’s far more terrifying to just scare fragile white losers.
At least Bill Gates was connected to Xbox, or something.
I think he even invented Halo or so I’ve heard! He’s a true gamer.
It wasn’t even good at it, Saint’s Row feels like the game GTA is trying to be.
Nah saints row is when the mom says “but we already have gta at home”
Yeah, if your home was the fuckin’ Playboy Mansion
Saints row fans are the gamer equivalents of people who like to watch Kardashians and shit like that.
GTA fans who diss Saint’s Row fans are the people gobbling up post Endgame MCU while seeing nothing wrong with the current state of cinema

You were the one dissing GTA and I’m sorry, but gta is so far a head of saints row that it’s not even remotely close. I’ve only ever finished the story of one gta game, because I didn’t like it in the other games, but I still spent a ton of time in all of them despite that, because the world is so immersive and there’s so much to do in there.
The stories in saints rows feel like they just put all the ideas in the game and give no thought if it fits the game at all. I have adhd and they still always manage to overwhelm me with so much senseless crap going on at all times. You just end up zoning out and not focusing on the story at all. I’ve never managed to play any saints row for longer than a few hours because of that. Meanwhile I’ve spent many times more than that in all gta games, outside the story, just exploring and messing around. You can easily spend more time just messing around in GTA than it would take to finish a story in saints row.
I like to play games where you can spend time doing stuff between the story missions, instead of just running from one mission to another. That really gets you immersed and makes it an unforgettable experience. I’ve played over 400 hours of gta v and every time I open the game, I still keep finding new stuff I haven’t seen previously in that game. Saints row doesn’t come even close to achieving that.
Saying that saints row is the game gta wants to be, implies that gta wants to be some cheap brainless entertainment that you forget in a day after playing it, which isn’t true. They have ambitions beyond that and it clearly shows in their product.
Ok so that’s all you can give, a dislike? Come on bring on the counter arguments.
Saints row 2 is the best GTA game
Damn straight
Righties 4ish years ago: “Those cuckwokes in the land Downunder are pulling GTA V from shelves over violence, what a bunch of snowflakes. 😂😂”
Righties today: “um, could you stop doing violence in the M rated video game? My Hypothetical children are getting influenced. 🤓🤓”
The only thing consistent on that side of the fence is their inconsistency.

I like how he’s turning extwitter into 4chan. Advertisers hate it though, but advertising only accounts for 90% of their revenue, nbd
That’s ok, Muskoid is going to sue the ADL and Media Matters, and based on his extremely flawed ideas regarding Freedom Of Speech, he probably believes he can win lol.
he’s such a fucking clown
His claim for suing Media Matters is that ads don’t always appear next to Neo-Nazis, therefore they had to hit refresh until one did.
Which… they never said otherwise? And that doesn’t really change things?
I don’t remember hearing what Jack Dorsey thought of anything.
Musk has literally paid 30 billion to have his own private megaphone on the internet.
What’s the advertising like on 4chan? I haven’t been on there in like 15 years. Maybe there were banner ads last time I was on there lol.
Weeb merch, dick pills and malicious links. So pretty much what it’s always been tbh.
A jackass not being a fan of something is, to me, a pretty good advertisement for that thing.
It’s like a loud, obnoxious racist complaining about a nearby bar. “They don’t believe in freedom! They asked my friends and I to leave just for telling a few jokes!”
Oh, they don’t put up with bigots and aren’t afraid to kick them out? Maybe I should start hanging out there!
Wait do people not like the new GTA lady?
Because bobs and vagene.
I remember a time when we all liked bobs and vagene.
Face it Trevor, you’re a hipster.
I used to. I still do, but I used to too.
Same here Mitch. Same here.
A very tiny loud minority on the Internet.
Those people confuse me. GTA6 protag is realistic but still at model level of conventional beauty.
It’s not like Sarah Rider (Mass Effect Andromeda) or Jesse Faden (Control), who aren’t as “conventionally” attractive. Although after writing that, Jesse is super hot, and I’m not sure if I’ve been gaslit by the internet into thinking she’s not “conventionally” attractive.
Being charitable and taking these people at their word, I feel like with the more divisive examples it’s a problem with modern lighting being softer and more dynamic? Leading to more “bad” angles and softer looking features. Most professional photoshoots have very contrasty and deliberate lighting, so maybe they’re too used to that?
Jesse Faden is modeled after a soap-opera actress lol, are people really saying she’s not attractive?
Jesse Faden not conventially attractive? Wow, the internet is a wild place
This is the first I’m hearing of it, but I’m sure there’s a non-zero % out there
“Oh my god, who the hell cares?”
I hope the writers in charge of the radio station dialog are. This is great fodder.
This picture is wrong. Whole world is shaped like Murica . nothing else is known to man or so they say.
Wait, why is Hawaii no longer in the after?
Elon Musk’s rockets essentially made the island sink into the sea…
Hell, she’s actually pretty cute. I’ll take her over the typical 2020s female character design style.
why is the too stylised as a youtube reaction video thumbnail, with the red background and all
People will complain about anything. They haven’t even seen what the game actually is.
I swear lemmy just feels like an Elon hate forum. I hate the guy too but 80% of the content is just about him
Maybe you’re in the wrong communities, i see one Elon post every 100 or so posts.
Half of the posts I see are about awesome animals like cats, dogs, owls, bats, opossums and racoons.
I need more active animal communities. Please list your recs 🥺
Not the original commenter but check out superb owl
Idr the spelling of the community or what instance I just see it pop up in my all feed from time to time
Also the animal communities just named opossums and raccoons(I think)
Edit: a post from superb owl

Some of them aren’t very active but I hope they’ll gain popularity by linking to them.
I just see kraut posts half the time, the other half of NSFW “subreddits” that I have to block.
Low hanging fruit tempts more people, more easily. He’s just a really easy to hate, last decade it was Zuckerberg, this decade it’s Elon.
I just hope the next person to steal the spotlight is less insufferable.
These kinds of posts always come off like when Trump complains that the people prosecuting him and judges are just anti-Trump.
He’s a con man and everyone needs to know it. There are still too many people who think he’s the best person on Earth.
Yes, but him whining about GTA isn’t exposing him as a con man
Its an easy target. Low effort, high reward. I have a colleague who is frantic about numerology and anti-vax stuff. It’s always a success to crack a joke about that.
You should find some communities you like. It’s not all 80% for me. Much, much lower.
