    I don't recall seeing it here but a cool thing that was brought up is how the stealing of cars is actually character skill based.

    Like the ability to break into them/start them requires certain hacking skills. Or in order to be able to just hijack one you need to have the requisite strength be be ripping the door open.

    Which is super cool. So you can't just go boosting cars all willy nilly. GTA this is not.

    Gimme all the stat checks.

    Theres not really a point where emotional driven hyperbolic exaggeration is better than an accurate explanation in the proper perspective.

    Hate him if you like but being like that is being your own mob mentality and do you really wanna be that sort of person? I certainly dont.

    I can condemn him for his idiocy and grossness just fine without implying hes a pedophile.

    And that implication was definitely there in how it was coming across whether it was meant or not. Its not what you mean its how you sound.

    Of course I say that but Id be happy dunking my countries conservative politicians in charge upside down in a vat of boiling acid and consider them all irredeemable psychopaths so its not like I dont understand how easy it is to think and talk that way if you really dont like someone.

    I dont give a shit about this rando streamer tho so maybe that's why I can be more neutral about it.

    He's not a rando streamer, he's one of the biggest in the world. His return stream had 500k concurrent viewers. He routinely has 6 figure viewer streams.

    Trying to downplay the dudes status is just as disingenuous as upscaling his offenses.

    Sorry I meant rando to me. I know nothing about streamers. Hes definitely big and influentional and his actions are gross and a big deal. Hes not a pedophile tho. Hes a gross idiot. Its not downplaying to say that. Or to want to avoid implying he is a pedophile.

    My bad should have thought about my wording better.

    Ill be honest with you I know nothing about 99% of streamers theyre nobodies in my world view. They might as well exist in another universe. I appreciate that lots of people watch them tho. Its just not my thing. I didnt know how big he is until you told me the figures just now. He was just a name.

    They weren't fucking anything, which I think is what Morninglord is hung up on. Just to be clear, nobody except Morninglord has raised the issue of pedophilia. Dr. Disrespect went into a bathroom on a livestream because clearly he has some deficiencies with respect to decision-making, and there was at least one 17 year old kid or whatever in the bathroom, maybe peeing or some shit, I don't know. Whether or not this has anything at all to do with this game is entirely unknown because all we have to go on is the very same Dr. Disrespect making a vague tweet. Since this is the guy who livestreamed a bathroom I tend not to put very much weight on anything he says one way or the other, so I'm not exactly getting mad about this until we hear whether he's even, like, tangentially linked to the game, which again, just to emphasize, so far there is literally zero evidence that he's linked to the game in any way except for a tweet from this person who is clearly fucking dumb.

    I did not bring up pedophilia its been part of the conversation for two pages.

    The only purpose of this post is to point that out.

    Im hung up on nothing. Please do not read into my post and try to make me out as some sole madman. I was just giving my thoughts on an existing conversation.

    Right, so he's not a pedophile, he's just a massive POS who took a livestream into a public bathroom where minors were present. He's just a massive POS who spread conspiracy theories about Covid being caused by 5G (and no, he can't hide behind the "shock jock" defense. It's a cop-out and if that we're the case then it's even worse because he knowingly spread misinfo and caused unknown amounts of harm for views/money).

    If he's in this game I'm not buying it. That's the straw that will break the camels back. I really hope the rumors are false.

    Why has this game had so many controversies? Kinda a rhetorical question.

    They're making so many poor decisions.

    Granted we dunno if this one is true yet.

    DrDisrespect definitely had a huge return on YouTube but he absolutely isn't pulling in 100K viewers on the regular. He does appear to be doing better in terms of viewers on YT though.

    As for why not hyperbolizing the man's controversies is important: folks are already using this as evidence of CDPRs scumminess. "Well OF COURSE they would put a guy who films kids in the bathroom in their game!"

    No one is hyperbolizing anything. He filmed a minor in a public bathroom, that is literally what he did. No one except the people defending him brought up pedophilia, and it is not neccesary to invoke it to abhor him for his actions there. What he did is bad enough on it's own, no playing it up needed. One of the myriad reasons why you don't bring a livestream into a public bathroom is because there could be minors in there, and you don't go into a public restroom with a live camera without at least knowing that you're probably going to violate someone's privacy. It's just something that any adult who has respect for others knows they shouldn't do. He and his crew went in there anyway, and the person who ended up being filmed wasn't an adult.

    If he didn't want to be known as a guy who filmed a kid in a bathroom, then he shouldn't have brought his camera into a public restroom and filmed a kid. If CDPR doesn't want to be criticized or known for partnering with a guy who filmed a kid in a public bathroom, then they probably shouldn't partner with a guy who filmed a kid in a bathroom. Actions have consequences. I just hope that the rumor stays a rumor and that CDPR are smart enough not to partner with someone like that.

    Sorry, I wasn’t asking whether he was fucking and filming. It was more of a shocked question as I had never heard of this, somehow. To rephrase: “what the fuck?”

    So I’m not really mad about whether or not he’s in the game, I’m mad that this human being has a massive platform for his depravity.

    But also yeah, CDPR, if you put him in the game maybe rethink that.

    Dr. Disrespect in the game won't keep me from buying and playing it. If it's some self-depricating shit I'd be onboard, honestly all of the streamers should be characters that mock their own flaws or are just terrible people. It kinda looks like the case with most, Jesse Cox's character I think was verified by himself as someone who likes robots a little TOO much.

    That being said, Doc got off way too easy for what he did at E3, and while it's hard to judge someone who has a fake Twitch personality, I can judge his terrible life choices as well as the fans that stuck with him. While Twitch is alright about rewarding his behavior because he makes them lots of money, I don't see why anyone else needs to reward his controversy.

    They'd ridden the Shame out, the general assumption is he did something else that didn't leave any room for debate about how they should respond.
    General word that other streamers heard was he's out, it's permanent, we will not be discussing this further.

    So they've eroded any trust I have in their ability to give a date, which I suppose doesn't mean anything in the grand scheme of things...but it does mean I'm just going to assume it will get delayed again. Not getting my hopes up again for them to make a date they announced until the game is actually sitting on my PC.

    I'm sure they have completely valid reasons to delay. Remember that productivity as a whole, world wide, is kind of in the shitter right now. I'm just annoyed they keep doing this two and three week delays right before the last date they announced, instead of just ripping the band aid off and admitting it's not going to be ready until 2021.

    Fucking awesome. I'm sure I'll have no fucking difficulty getting time off 2 weeks before fucking Christmas.

    At least they could have moved the launch day to a friday, instead of this weird Thursday fetish they have going on.

    Plus it shows what a fucking sham their original launch date was. Remember when this was due out in April ?
