| SwayM 05/27/20 2:05:02 PM #9 | TomNook20 posted... That. It's super annoying to use a bunch of different launchers. PC gamers: PCs can do everything consoles can do. All the features consoles have a completed by various programs. Its great to have options. Also PC gamers: If I have to download ONE more goddamn launcher --- |

| SwayM 05/27/20 1:57:36 PM #5 | This was apparent from Day 1 when the importance of useless features of a virtual store were cried about over THE GAMES THEMSELVES. Sorry, I cant enjoy Metro if I dont have a shopping cart. Ill go to my grave on this one. --- |

| Topic | Keemstar |
| SwayM 05/27/20 7:18:01 AM #54 | The_Scarecrow posted... Ethan should not have used Etikas suicide as an argument against Keemstars character. Imagine actually believing this. Everybody knows isnt an argument or an excuse to bury something so heinous. I have zero desire to explain this to you. If your character is so bad you cant see this is a problem then Im not going to solve it and waste my time trying. Also releasing a video near Etikas Birthday means absolutely nothing, sorry. --- |
| Topic | Why is the comedy aspect of video games ignored? |
| SwayM 05/26/20 6:22:50 PM #37 | the last game that really made me laugh is GTA III chatterbox radio station Nothing since has quite tickled my humour bone the same. Not even the following GTAs This topic is very true. Video game writing is usually poor. Like my other topic tries to get at. The medium has come along way and the efforts to produce better quality products continues to make strides. But Ive yet to see a video game actually be humorous like any good show or movie. --- |

| SwayM 05/26/20 2:40:19 PM #51 | The_Scarecrow posted... I cannot imagine thinking my posts which usually cover video games are in the same tier as some of the blatant racist and sexist posts Your post in this topic is just as bad. Grow up dude. --- |

I'm honestly amazed on how you keep popping up in the same topics I'm in and saying "This is the worst post on CE" whenever responding to something I said. This is second or third time you've done this within the past week or so. I don't check every single topic I post in sometimes so I'm not sure. Get off of CE for a while, man. You continue to make some of the worst posts on CE maybe you should be the one to take a break here and do us a favour. --- |

| Topic | Keemstar |
| SwayM 05/25/20 10:06:51 AM #26 | The_Scarecrow posted... Ethan using Etikas suicide as ammunition against Keemstar is just as bad. Id argue Ethan doesnt really care about Etika at all. Hes just using whatever he can find to paint Keemstar in a negative light. Both of them arent great people but Ethan becomes more unlikable every time I hear about him. Keemstar kind of just stays in that same little dim light while Ethan gets worse. Im honestly amazed how bad this post is CE is an absolute cesspool sometimes. --- |

| Topic | Unpopular Pokemon opinions |
| SwayM 05/24/20 7:09:12 PM #21 | Iagree with anyone that thinks Pokmon designs deteriorated somewhere down the line. I dont care to draw such a line but anyone who goes after gen 1 designs is a sludge person. But heres the super big take. The gameplay, as in the RPG that really hasnt changed in 20 some years, is boring my dudes. Its basic ass, 4 move having, Rock Paper Scissors being, super lame animation looking, no depth in the muthafucka WHATSOEVER doing piece of absolute trash. --- |

| Topic | Why are gamers afraid of video games approaching the quality of movies? |
| SwayM 05/24/20 4:10:07 PM #44 | Rikiaz posted... Because I want to actually play a game. Not just have little snippet of dull gameplay in between long cutscenes and forced story segments. Games shouldnt try to be movies because games can tell stories in different and vastly more interesting ways than movies. They can use things like environmental storytelling and actually make you feel immersed in a world. Keep in mind JRPGs are in no way a new thing. So why is this argument like 5ish years old? --- |
| Topic | Why are gamers afraid of video games approaching the quality of movies? |
| SwayM 05/24/20 4:09:05 PM #43 | Delirious_Beard posted... because better acting and animation Yes. Usually when something is better it is better. Acting is self explanatory. The better the performance the better the game. The better technology to capture and render those performances...Im not saying using better technology makes your games automatically better but what a foolish way to dismiss the ability to be able to tell a more realized story. --- |

| SwayM 05/24/20 3:20:03 PM #30 | UnfairRepresent posted... Not surprised you're not going to apologize for randomly lying Reread the topic. I really dont care what your opinions are on God of War but it has nothing to whether you think the game is bad And there isnt a perfect way to tell a video game story. Exactly what you said in bold. Some may prefer some styles over other and some may appreciate a more heavy handed story, especially when they manage to weave gameplay through it masterfully like a game like TLOU or GOW. --- |

| SwayM 05/24/20 3:06:31 PM #23 | MarthGoomba posted... Video "games" where gameplay takes a backseat in favour of story and visuals are boring The major flaw in your line of thinking is that story and gameplay cant compliment each other. That you need one or the other. --- |

You asked How are people mad that God of War is trying to be a movie? I referred you to someone who believes that and you can discern your own answers. And now for some reason you cant begin to understand that. How are you so easily confused by your own line of questioning? --- |
| Topic | Why are gamers afraid of video games approaching the quality of movies? |
| SwayM 05/24/20 2:56:57 PM #15 | Broseph_Stalin posted... Games will never approach movies because the point of a game isn't to tell a story. People don't buy games to watch a movie and good writers don't go into the game industry. """cinematic""" games will always be boring garbage. Heres one of you for you guys to observe and study. --- |

| SwayM 05/24/20 2:53:53 PM #11 | sLaCkEr408___RJ posted... No, you choose to focus on those who complain. There is a lot of praise for those games. You are not alone in appreciation. Youll see me praise games all the time here. Negativity in gamers isnt something you need to focus on to notice. Just keep an eye out for it now I guess if you havent already and use that appreciation whenever you can. Because I think negativity is a plague. --- |

RDR2 took a full year to come to PC, and you havent even had it a full year yet on the platform...literally imagine trying to tell console players, who have all the time in the word and played that game to completion and that they havent enjoyed it to the levels of PC Players.

| Topic | Why are gamers afraid of video games approaching the quality of movies? |
| SwayM 05/24/20 2:29:27 PM #1 | The simple minded will take this topic and argue about interactive movies What this topic is really about is how literally anytime a game like TLOU or God of War (2016) comes out people get mad that a games are trying to be movies. The storytelling and acting being elevated to anything remotely movie quality really terrifies some gamers. Games have come a long fuckin way since I started playing them. But still have A LONG way to go before theyre respected in the same way. I just watched Crimson Tide last night. I will go to bat for video games every chance I get, but there isnt a single story or performance in any game Ive played that comes close to what we see from that movie. Especially Hackman or Denzel. And thats just one specific movie. The performances themselves are maybe the hardest thing to replicate. Games are certainly trying though. I wonder if well ever see anything that can cross that uncanny valley in a serious way. But even just the story itself. The writing and dialogue. Its often atrocious in the video game world. Anyone can be a writer here and people like Hideo Kojima have proven that. You dont need anyone to edit your shit. --- |

| SwayM 05/23/20 9:09:59 PM #37 | _Marka_Ragnos_ posted... What the fuck does 2 cream even mean. Well here in Canada we got this mom and pop coffee shop Tim Hortons and dont be confused. It may be a Canadian staple, but its not all that great. We fuckin love it tho for some reason. Call it Canadian pride or some shit. Anyway. Cream and sugar are ordered in units. One cream, two sugars for example. Or the famous double double and Ill let you figure out what that means. but heres whats happening behind the scenes. This is from a quick google search. From my store, all measurements in millilitres: The amounts are automatically calculated and adjusted to the size and type of drink. And this seems be a universal language at the very least idk how other restaurants dispense the shit but you ask for a double double at any fast food window (other than Starbucks as far as I know because I never order there) and they produce what you ask for without question --- |

| SwayM 05/23/20 8:57:15 PM #47 | fan357 posted... Hunt Showdown used to look incredible. But they nerfed the visuals because most people didnt have the hardware for it. Also Crytek cant optimize for shit. I own this game I think since it was in beta but I hardly played it. I wonder if Ill notice a difference if I logged in today --- |

Anyone willing to shill for Star Citizen in the year of our Lord 2020 probably needs a wellness check to make sure they're not writing on the walls with their own shit What bothers you more? That Star Citizen is the most technically impressive games available on PC? Or there will never be another game that rivals it? Bring up release dates and their crowdsourcing, call it a scam all you want. But you literally cannot take away from the reality that as of today the build you can play of Star Citizen is the best example of what PC gaming could be without limits...and all its failures and missteps are exactly why no one else is even remotely trying to compete. --- |

But this an outlier. I own multiple guides of theirs and theyre very high quality.  --- |
