    Other than the lack of Free Mode activities, GTA Online was a ton of fun on consoles in the early days (it peaked around the time Sumo came out IMO), but I’m willing to bet it will flop immediately in GTA 6, given how much more monetized it’s going to be this time around. I mean it flopped almost instantly on PC with half the monetization, and I don’t have a console now, so I have to wait for it to come to PC and hope for the best.

    The only possible saving grace is the fact that the FiveM devs are involved. But I’m not going to hold my breath. They’ll probably monetize those servers too.

    (Also I still prefer GTA IV’s multiplayer to both GTA Online and FiveM. Cops and Crooks and that game’s version of GTA Race were some of the most fun I’ve ever had in a video game! V nerfed GTA Race so much that they sucked all the fun out of it.)

    The map is the biggest disappointment. Just like in GTA V, there’s next to no reason to visit the upper ⅔rds of the map. I was expecting at least a proper panhandle with some typical southern towns scattered about, not just a 1.5x scaled up version of what we’ve already been stuck playing for the past 13 years.

    Edit: No Orlando, either. I was really excited to see Rockstar’s take on Disney World… They were probably afraid of getting sued. :(

    United States and it sucked because schools have been underfunded for as long as I can remember (the late 80s), so imagine six hours of the most boring classes imaginable, the vast majority of it spent reading something off either a textbook or a whiteboard/chalkboard. The only classes that had any sort of variety in my schools were art, gym, and computer class.

    Plus when you’re a kid, six hours feels like an eternity.



  • That’s genius, but I’m absolutely horrified that you allow a 2-year-old to use a phone. That’s how you raise an iPad baby. They should be playing with age-appropriate toys, and interacting with other kids their age as often as possible. My kids are allowed to use the desktop PC, but they’re not allowed to have a phone until they’re old enough to go outside on their own. They’re doing just fine without.

    I don’t even understand why a pedophile is allowed to run reddit… (And another one runs the country.) How did everything get so fucked up? Nobody has morals anymore, nobody gets upset anymore! We just accept our reality and then carry on. Where is the testosterone-fueled anger?

    This is why I have a harness and one of those extending leashes. I pretty much let him go where he wants on hour-long walks; the leash is just to keep him from genociding the local fauna or running into traffic. It also reduces his urge to sprint outside the moment a door opens.
