It’s actually crazy that GTA V is already ten years old. That was one of my first big anticipated titles. It felt like such a defining moment back then. Now it’s two console generations later and we still have no real indication for GTA V or Elder Scrolls 6. I hope they’re going to be equally as impressive as their predecessors.

Wouldn’t exactly call it impressive. It’s nice they included temporary tech. It is to be expected if you release a game in 2023. What weighs more I’d argue is what they left out. No improved textures, 720p UI still, no 60FPS - not even on a console that is 10 times stronger than what we had back then.

It’s especially sad if you think about that they already have the whole map of RDR1 recreated in RDR2. It feels like half of the work was already done and they just had to pull through and port the missions. Instead we got the exact game from 10 years ago.

Second this, I love Antenna Pod. Similarly, I too started with Podcast Addict and switched a year ago. Antenna Pod got a facelift quite recently and it looks and feels better than ever. You get all the stuff you want from a podcast app, plus you can customise it a little and its open source without ads. It really doesn’t get much better than that.

Ja, das ist wahrscheinlich so der Lauf der Dinge. Ist ja auch nichts für ewig. Auf der anderen Seite ist das Gras immer grüner.

Mich zieht es irgendwie schon immer in die (Groß-)stadt. Gerade im /r/de subreddit hatte ich das Gefühl, dass es sehr verschmäht wird, aber Ausnahmen bestätigen wohl die Regel. Ich mochte schon immer die Anonymität in der Stadt, die Möglichkeiten vieles fußläufig zu erreichen, das Gefühl irgendwo zu sein, wo etwas los ist. Leider zieht es meine Freundin wohl eher aufs Land, das wird schwierig.

I don’t exactly know if this is going to work out in the end because new studios by established developers/directors can go either way but I know for a fact that RDR2 is the best video game story that I have ever experienced. I hope this new studio and also Rockstar will keep making great games.
