      Are ps5’s not useful?

      I haven’t bothered with the last generation of consoles, but I haven’t heard anything bad about them.

      But maybe my “haven’t bothered” comment is a common sentiment and the answer to my own question?

        Honestly I don’t really know. I’ve heard the new Pro version isn’t anything most people want.
        I’m just throwing shade for fun.

          It’s not what anyone wants because it offers little more over the base console. Doesn’t mean the base system wasn’t great. I love it, and it was an amazing buy when covid happened and I couldn’t buy PC parts to make my own and even if i could the GPU prices were insane. The only complaint I can make is the controller breaks every year due to stick drift… I have been gaming since the 90s and it’s the first time I have ever seen this issue.

            Get an 8bitdo pro2 controller. They have Xbox, and PS versions and they both can swap between console and PC with a flick of a button. Plus they have back peddles that you can use for L3 and R3 to reduce wear on the sticks.

            I’ve had mine for three years now and it’s never once caused any issues at all.

              That’s exactly what I have for my PC. I finally made one last fall when prices cane down. I love that controller.

              For the PS5 I don’t think there are many options either, and I like the controller a lot, it’s just that they cheaped out on parts and that pisses me off.

    The cross alignment with the background is killing me.

    Blue swoops in way lower on the left.

    Isn’t carpentry like, his thing?? Come now.

    Good graphics, awful gameplay, even worse story.

    There’s this one guy called Yahweh, and he supposed to be the hero, but is a genocidal maniac, an extreme misogynist incel, a warmongler, etc. His son, Jesus Christ seems to be a nice guy though, but only if the priest chooses the right dialog options on the Bible, and is somehow also Yahweh, oor his own father.

    The fandom is one of the worst. People are using the game to not only justify their political views, but also want to make the real world the exact same as the game, because in the good ending, you’re going to a country in the sky, which is supposed to be good, but which requires people having the same exact views as an extreme misogynist incel and enact their wildest dreams into law, go to the PrayStation regularly, abstain from many “pleasures of life”, and some even justify giving weapons to Israel on this game to destroy Palestine because one of the cutscenes talk about that is needed for the good ending to happen, and so on. Also many of those lolicons that still haven’t got the memo that also trying to justify actual pedophilia are also now big PrayStation fans, as a cutscene tells the player a girl is ready to marriage the moment she has pubic hair, breasts, and menstruation, which can go as low as 9. (OOC: The Quran got it from the Old Testament)
