      GTA 5 is the first of Rockstar's sandbox games where you play as three different characters concurrently, each of them a different sort of trope figure, with their own sorts of missions, things they'll get up to, abilities, etc., and it's something rarely done in video games. Playing as only one character, however isn't the unique part about it. Skinny CJ, fat CJ, and buff CJ will always be CJ aside from minor tweaks to gameplay. All GTA's have had one protagonist at a time, including SA, and him possibly being fat, buff, etc. in appearance doeesn't change him from being that same protagonist; it's still not as unique as three different protagonists at the same time.
      It's different, perhaps subjectively more interesting of a mechanic than having multiple specialists with different specialties, but by itself, it doesn't amount up to being more unique.

    "remember you have literally never brushed your teeth" wrong, people in medieval times had a general awareness of personal hygiene, including brushing your teeth, even for the lower classes, as toothbrushes ranged from actual traditional ones like we know them now, to simple sticks and twigs with their ends partially chewed up to use the wood fibers as brushes, and also the toothpaste recipe could vary based on social status and geographical area, the most common ones consisting in a mixture of ground up salt and spices and flowers like cloves, to freshen you breath

      Also, spices? Hahahahaha, even the richest nobles in the land had to pay out the ass for spices. Rosewater maybe, but spices? You're definitely erring on the side of the very rich, not the average. In fact, people who were poor would have better teeth, as eating large amount of sugars will ruin your teeth. However this, much like gout, was a sign of wealth, and people would fuck up their teeth so it looked like they were rich or capable enough to regularly eat sweets.

    Actually people in medieval times would clean there teeth by rinsing them with warm vinegar or wine and then wiping there teeth using a rough cloth to dry and get any gunk off of their teeth. This combined with the fact that only the rich could afford sugar actually meant that a lot less people had dental problems because most of what people ate back then was vegetables, bread, or meat and that generally meant that people where much healthier than now because they constantly exercised. Though they did live much shorter lives because of the constant stress of their live styles at the time.

      It’s more realistic than most games but it’s not hyper realism.
      It’s on par in terms of timing and realism of any basic survival mechanics in a game like tracking food, sleep, or water on a vaguely realistic timescale.
      Considering most people with internet access have never skinned an animal, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to point out that fact.

    A game with basic needs like eating, drinking, car that consume fuel and other can be nice, the only issue is that in most game you stave to death in 10 minutes and your car can only run 15 minutes on a fuel tank, if those mechanics used more realistic time scale it would be more enjoyable.
    Having the possibility to become fat or strong in GTA was actually fun and since you aren't forced to eat, you can't complain about being fat and loosing ability.
    Same for hangover, if the game forced you to get drunk I could understand how annoying it would be, but when drinking is YOUR choice, why would you complain...

      I adored that game back in the day! I finished that, as well as the sequel, but never even got close to finishing the much more lauded over GTA: Vice City (I got stuck on some quest where you have to fly a helicopter inside a parking garage iirc and pick up a set amount of items with it or something - it was timed though and because the controls were wonky I could never get it done in time or couldn't find all the items I needed).
      I am an Anglophile, and would just LOVE a new generation Get Away game!! The fact it represented so much of London was sooo cool. Only thing is if they did it for current times, it won't even feel like London anymore, with all the immigrants there and their shops etc. They should do a 80s era story, like Vice City, so it would still feel authentically English. So sad that this is the truth of the matter.

    The game “This War of Mine” has a mental health mechanic. If you do things like kill or steal, your mental health can worsen. If it worsens enough, you can get to the point where your character will literally stop moving and just sit on the floor crying. The next day they’ll either abandon their shelter or literally commit suicide. Makes a depressing game so much sadder.

      Actually, people in the Middle Ages got pretty old, of course not as old as today, but the life expectancy is getting pulled down because of the widespread infant mortality.

      So, I carry a close quarters and a sniper. There are a lot of close quarters maps, so I eventually drop the sniper for another close-med weapon, because I'm low on ammo for the first one.
      5 minutes later, there's a sniping section, and now I don't have a sniper. WEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

    Red Dead Redemption 2: how NOT to hunt.
    I'm gonna tell these guys how to hunt in RDR2 because it's obvious they have no idea. First things first; you don't need cover lotion, just stay downwind of your prey and you can get within fifteen meters of the animal. To figure out if you're downwind or not, activate Eagle Eye, and look for the wavy streamers coming off of Arthur. If they're pointing towards your prey, you're upwind and they will smell you. Remember to crouch while moving, and don't sprint or ride your hose or the animal will startle.
    Next, always use the tracking feature when you find the prey. If you fill the compendium log for an animal you can learn what it is and the quality of the animal by it's tracks making it much easier to find perfect animal pelts. Next, the proper weapon for the job is key, you don't need to use low damage weapons, just the one appropriate for the job. For deer, use a bow or rifle and aim for the head, neck, or chest for a one shot kill for minimum damage.
    Third, rotting animals does come into play but it takes 24 ingame hours before the carcass does begin to rot, plenty of time to find a trader and sell it. You should get 3.50 for the carcass and about the same for a perfect pelt, more than enough to cover the costs. To get rid of blood, change into a stored outfit on your horse (this won't get rid of dirt or grease) and brush down the horse.

    RDR2's hunting minigame was pretty fun imo. How involved it was made it feel like that much more of an accomplishment.
    BTW u guys got it a bit wrong, it wasn't that you have to use your bow or small caliber rifle. The knife would never damage a pelt, but it's impossible to use on some animals. The actual point was to use the *correct* weapon to suit your prey. Which meant you had to prepare properly instead of just finding targets of opportunity (sometimes). And you wouldn't know what weapon to use until you've studied it, which means you had to spot it with binoculars or examine its body. This would also allow you to identify its tracks.

      It takes a little brain power to play, is that not something you possess?

      The combat is certainly the most realistic I've seen, but the survival mechanics sort of just feel tacked on, not that I dont find it funny that your character can sustain himself on only alchohol, or that you can clear a bandit camp completely hammered once you've got a good set of plate armour.

      Just started playing the game. Loving it so far. My favorite is alchemy. It seems pretty realistic and fun

    I'm starting to think RDR2 and Hitman have more in common than we think...Homing tomahawks? Homing briefcases/fire extinguishers? It's right there folks

    What was even worse in Shenmue II was when you had to fight your way up a skyscraper and you literally had to fight enemies for 80 storeys going up!

      And I thought the 100 man battle in Shenmue 1 was crazy

    Deadly Premonition's $5/gal, hearing Mike say "extortionate" and "twice the national average"
    Oh, you sweet Summer child, Mike. I come to you from 2022. You'll want to stand up for this.

    My favorite thing about Deadly Premonition is that at the time Swery said he’d never even watched Twin Peaks

    Not to be that person, but the reason they put mint in medieval hangover cures was to battle the nausea as it’s been proven to settle the stomach!

    Wasn’t there a moment in metal gear solid 5’s demo where where you have to take a bomb out of somebody’s guts in realistic next gene graphics. Realism at its finest people.

      Connor Heddle-McGurk but still did it have to be detailed like that. It’s like the skinning animation on a person.

      The gore actually isn't all that realistic, but between the squishy organic noises and Paz's moans of pain it's kinda rough.
      Also it's actually censored in the Japanese version; the cutscene's going on, but the camera's pointed away from the actual incision, so instead you just get to *imagine* how horrible it must look. Not sure that's better.
