It´s time to play the "Let´s blame everything on the video games" game again, because the Munich attack appears to have been blamed on violent video games by Germany´s minister of interior. So this would be my (Robin Ek, TGG) take on the matter.
Grand Theft Auto V was released on PC on the 14th of April 2015. That means the game will be nine years old in four days, and it’s still among the most-played titles on Steam. With a 24-hour peak of 145K players, it’s as popular as Baldur’s Gate 3, Apex: Legends, and Destiny 2.
The freedom to explore large areas, approach objectives in multiple ways, and stumble across amusing distractions will always be an excellent format for video games, but some do it better than others. To celebrate the formula and parse the best from the best, have a look at the best open-world games of all time so far.
Red Dead Redemption 2 and GTA 5 are both classics, but movement and general interaction sometimes feels like you're possessed by a fridge.
Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…
Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.
Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game
The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.
I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls
Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games
I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
Prove it with actual proof not hearsay .
Governments can try to censor and/or ban all movies, videos, music etc. that they deem unacceptable, but it still would not stop violent acts like the events in Nice or Munich from being carried out. If someone is determined enough, no law is going to stop them.
Anything to get the eyes off crack pot Merkel
How about the Holocaust? Was that due to video games too? -__-
edit- it was not my intent to make them feel bad about it. The point was that evil has always existed, regardless of video games.
And regardless of what kalebninja says above, it is important to post this article. If the politicians have their way, they'll censor games even more. It's good for everyone to be aware so we can voice our opposition back.
