The illusion of choice-ish... rant.
I hate when games don’t register your choices and/or instead act like you made a completely different choice!
For example:In Asscreed Odd, I told Phoebe that I might return. But later she acts like you said that you’ll never return. So I started a new save and made sure I specifically said that I will definitely return and she still said that I’d said that I’d never return! Dumb little c*nt! Argh, don’t give me a choice and then ignore my choice dammit!
In RDR2 I bought back Mary’s mother’s bracelet or whatever it was and the dude I literally bought it from told me that “I’d regret it” or “face consequences” or something like that! You whot mate!? I JUST EARNESTY BOUGHT IT LEGITAMETLY FROM YOU, YOU F*CKING C*NT!!! ARGH!
Actually in general I HAVE NEVER screamed at a game as early on as I did rdr2 btw. Like, 5 minutes in and I was shouting in frustration! It was a shocking experience, not once in any of the Dark Souls games did I even raise my voice… I sighed a lot but that’s it.
There are many more examples, in rdr2 for sure, of me making a choice and the game having not a single clue about it basically.
…the game’s story in general is… sad? The fact that Dutch never once ask Arthur what’s wrong or if he is sick just pissed me the f*ck off! He even calls Arthur his damn “son” ffs! And yet he never gave a single f*ck that his “son” was coughing his f*cking lungs out! Micah calling Arthur “black lung” didn’t even make him pause or raise an eyebrow or anything! I know it was created that way obviously to show how his mind had f*cked right off or how he was as a person (a c*nt!), but it just made no sense to me how you can ignore your “child’s” health so obviously deteriorating right in front of you!
And while I’m ranting! The fact that I was not allowed to murder the children (the c*nts!) working for Le Bronte (or whatever his name was) made me actually shake and scream in anger! They deserved DEATH!
Like, f*ck the game for not letting me incapacitate ppl!
I ain’t f*cking running after Magnifico you stupid game! Just let me shoot him in the leg! Good luck running away like a little c*nt then you little… C*NT!!
Why couldn’t I just shoot the kids!?, F*ck em! Little horrible c*nts that do not deserve to experience any wonders in life. If they had families that would miss them they should’ve thought about that before being horrible little c*nts! I was so f*cking angry man.
Not being able to get rid of guns you didn’t want is a f*cking hassle too! Let me sell or put away at camp, the guns I never use or don’t want on me dammit! Having to cycle through all of the guns to get the one you want to use is really annoying! I don’t even need the unique guns, they do less than the customizable ones anyway and you can’t customize them at all.
…and give me more picture space, I haven’t even taken any of John yet and it’s already full dammit. Speaking of John, why is there no closet/chest to change and customize your outfits after the epilogue?! I walked into their bedroom to change my outfit, only to find there is no way to do that on the ranch anymore. I have a vague memory that you might be able to do it at the shops in the clothing section, but I’m not sure and it is a f*cking hassle! Just put the damned chest in their bedroom so I can smoothly change my outfit “at home” dammit!
Rant over. For now.
