Dogs make everything better

If nothing else, I’ll be satisfied if there’s a dog around camp that we can pet.

Companions make every open world game a lot better.

I think the other thread simulators were deleted  But reminds me of them. Y'all youngins need to look at this. Epic times.

 

 

OMG the grammar in some of those posts. That version of Push it to the Limit is cracking me up.

Oh boy, tell me about it! I had a field day with companion systems from games like Fallout 4, Skyrim, Mass effect games, Dragon age games etc. Being able to equip, interact with and influence another person accompanying you on your journey in a game is just something that always gave me a huge boner.

It brings back memories.  I forgot how batsh*t crazy this place was leading up to the GTAV release.  I vividly remember the delay announcement and the collective hype implosion.

 

Does anyone know...are Zee from those days and Dee the same person ?

One is the one thing you want to see most in the next gameplay trailer ?  You only get to choose one...

Mine would be a clue as to what activities/mini-games we're getting.

Robberies and the different dynamics and situation it can cause and the many ways of pulling them off.

My source told me this Dutch magazine which teased a RDR2 hands-on yesterday is mostly just copy-pasting other outlets' articles and selling as their own. My source says it's mostly not even invited to such press events. Let's put our focus on EDGE and OPM.

Nope. Zee just disappeared.

Definitely how the enemy gangs are incorporated in the game and how the system works. Fortunately they already teased it at the end of the first Gameplay Video.

 

But what also excites me is that you can go out with your gang members and partake in certain activities together ... Like you can actually play Poker, go fishing or go to the saloon with Dutch, Hosea and/or Lenny etc....

I’m looking forward to train robberies as well but... will other gangs within the world be able to rob trains as well? I hope we aren’t the only ones doing it all the time. Just imagine you taking a train to a destination and as you are sitting there another gang attempts to jump on board and rob everyone including you but you could stop it. Instead of them jumping on board they could be even sitting on the train with you as well and they could stand up and start hollering and demanding money from NPCs and when they approach Arthur he could enter Dead-Eye mode and deal with it that way as well.

Emmi no, you were on a redemption arc

*unsheathes banhammer*

 

PS: didn't say *uses*

[Emmi]

I'm not even joking this time though ... but I'm starting to doubt my 'source' as well. 

 

Just to clarify: This was about the magazine in the past in general! It's NOT related to the RDR2 preview!

The way he's moving that hat is Arthur trying to cool down the hype because he can't take much more. The hype almost killed him.

Your "source" is f*cking useless mate, you're lucky not to have been banned for "my source" shenanigans already, there is absolutely no point playing that card again this close to release. Don't do a Dee and spend over a year waiting for and discussing this game on the forum then throw away it cause ya decided to play leaker or insider.

[Emmi]

I wonder if R* will send me a 'care-package' leading up to a potential Bully 2 release? I mean they must know by now how much I'm looking forward to it.

Well, if true ... GTAV will rak up another 10-20 million copies ... geez!

GTA V Switch being announced tonight would certainly explain Rockstar not releasing the second gameplay trailer this week. I'd super curious how they handle GTAO on Switch tbh, if it turns out to be true anyway.

And the weirdest thing is it makes this leak somewhat legit ... I mean after seeing the crazy Online updates nothing surprises me no more!

[Jason]

Not sure I'd consider Link having a motorcycle in 2018/2019 GTAO ridiculous lol
