Official General Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 (edited) What's so wrong about a middle-aged man being the protagonist? f*cking hell, some people here really are a waste of sperm. So because some people on here don't want to play as a middle-aged protagonist in GTA V, they must all be a waste of sperm ?? You need f**cking relax and calm the f*ck down. There is no need at all to feel so worked up to be making comments like that, just because you have a difference of opinion. We all love GTA, but its still only a video game. Surely they are much more important things in your life to get so worked up about? If not go and take your extreme frustrations somewhere else. I am as calm as I could be, and pointing out what a stupid opinion it is to not want to play as "an old man" because apparently they can't do all the things a 20-so year old can does not mean I'm worked up. They make it seem like life at its prime is between 17 and 25. That's a bloody sh*t reason there, also I'm not buying the "I can identify myself with the character if he's around my age" excuse, that's bollocks. You can identify with anyone regardless of age. My extreme frustrations will vent wherever I want to vent them, thank you. @ A320 That's fine, I have no problem you expressing your views regarding your support for an older protagonist in GTA V and knocking the views of those who want a younger one. But when you start telling other people they are "a waste of sperm" because they don't want what you want, that's going over the top and its a bit too personal an insult for such a trivial matter. There is no need for that. @ Ana Belial Ok I'll make it very clear for you. I don't want an older protagonist in GTA V. I don't have to give you a reason. I just don't want one. If you don't understand that then get cured of your illiteracy fast. Edited May 2, 2012 by Official General Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A320 Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 I think you didn't understand what I meant. I didn't use that term because they have a different opinion than me, that would be pretty close minded. I used it because the people against Ned Luke being the protag don't actually give out valid reasons to: 1. Not wanting to play as an "old fart". 2. Why they want a late teenager or someone in their early 20's. It seems as though they'd feel old themselves just by playing with a character who isn't even as old as they make him out to be, not to mention the voiceover actor's age has nothing to do with the in game character. Oh, and while I'm out here let me repeat myself by saying I wouldn't care if the character was either a younger person or Ned. Rockstar will deliver a masterpiece regardless.

Slamman Posted May 2, 2012 Share Posted May 2, 2012 It's just too bad that the people making the game didn't drop out of the cradle making the things as you did playing them. WAKE UP! It's for mature players, not jailbait gamers! haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockstar will deliver a masterpiece regardless. @ A320 I hear you, but at the same time I think you are reading too much into this. I don't think those opposed to an older, middle-aged protagonist are too concerned about "feeling old" playing as that Ned Luke guy. I just think most of those like myself who want a younger protagonist, want one because they just do, they don't have to give a very specific or valid reasons as to why they prefer younger guy over older guy as the protagonist. For some, they may think it just simply suits the game more, no other reason. But not everyone's idea of a valid reason is the same, so you are better off agreeing to disagree. And don't take those "old man is unfit, impaired and cant do nothing" statements from others on here so seriously - I'm sure the guys saying it more than likely don't literally mean it, they are just voicing their opinions in a jokingly manner to invoke a reaction. I will still obviously play GTA V no matter if it's an older or younger guy. But I'm just not feeling this Ned Luke, middle-aged character. I've given my reasons already, I don't wanna go over them.

Slamman Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 (edited) Speaking about old dudes riding bikes; I ride my BMX a lot, Bob Haro Ryan Nyquist model. It's not the best I've owned. I have a Redline I put together with Tuff Wheel IIs, and that's a damn nice bike. I had built a Diamond Back vintage 80s BMX as well, also with Tuff Wheels. It was stolen from my place of work, I neglected a lock at all times, which I do now. I'm over 40, but my fondness for 20 inch bikes still exists. I could make better transpo time with a bigger set of wheels, literally speaking Edited May 3, 2012 by Slamman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesus you are ignorant. I know 50yo's who will do circles around you boy and tuck you in bed and work another 8 hours. There's 80yo farmers who will work 20yo's under the table, all day, every day. I've seen it happen when I put up hay when I was younger. This new generation is a joke in all areas, a dud, if you will. That's why I call it the 'blank' generation. Kinda like an unstruck coin.

( I can understand someone being p*ssed off with this if they are middle-aged). For me personally, it not about the fact a middle-aged 50 year old can still kick ass, crack skulls, lift mad heavy weights and run a 100 meters in under 10 seconds. If a 50 year old can still do that, then great. But I just don't want a middle-aged protagonist in GTA V for various reasons already explained earlier on this thread. The oldest I'd rather have is a 30-year old, but preferably I'd rather he was in his late 20s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA-King Posted May 3, 2012 Share Posted May 3, 2012 So, just because Ned Luke is 53, that automatically makes the game character that age too? I'm sorry, but that's just stupid logic in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could go with a white protag, just not Ned Luke. [supreme] So I guess your not going to enjoy your experience with V then. What a shame, all this time talking about it just to be let down. Just shut up. You don't know if it's Ned or not. Personally, I would rather have some one in his Late-20's Early- 30's to be the protagonist. But If it is Ned, i probably wouldn't mind, it would still have a good story. Uh-huh. Yeah I do. I watched the trailer. Telling me to shut up, why I otta... No. You don't know sh*t. We all saw the trailer, yet we are f*cking arguing about it STILL. Until R* games says otherwise, it's unknown.
