I found Red Dead Redemption to be really boring, am i a bad person?

Right there with you buddy. I don't care much for RDR.

The only fun I got out of that game was climbing onto a house and killing everything in sight until I was gunned down.
I thought GUN was better.
Yeah.
GUN.

Quit acting like that's a bold statement. GUN was a dope game. You got some crazy fucking cannon gun and an armored tank of a horse when you 100%'d it.
YES!!
"Who knew this could be so fun?"
Lots of us Brad. It's always great to see someone discover a fun multiplayer. It gets pretty tense down the road when you're trying to get enough kills to feed 80 dudes on week 8 or repelling an invasion that can kill of a percentage of your group.
Always stay low and stick with another player. Grab everything and save the easiest challenges (you'll know what I mean) for the last couple of weeks of surviving.

Nope, it was a real slog to get through Mexico. It picked up near the end but I definitely didn't take to it like a lot of gaffers did.
Meh, he doesn't get much hate. There's just the usual "Jeff's too cynical/negative" comments, which have been happening for years. I think most people realize that he's the heart of GB.
Avatar quote etc.

I might be the only one who liked Red Dead Revolver.
Nope I liked it as well.

It certainly got boring in Mexico.
You know that MP is code for TLOU at the moment? Because I don't disagree, at all, in that case.

Preach it, brother.
Can we all at least agree that RDR has one of the best late title cards? Because it absolutely does.

It's still the same game, no?
I don't think resolution and framerate were the issues that kept him from playing it in the first place.

Not surprised one bit at Brad doing pretty well in multiplayer Last of Us. He said he played the game on hard, and a fair amount of the skills you learn playing single player translate to the multiplayer.
Yeah, no doubt. I recently played through the game again and holy shit does it still hold up visually too. Just a beautiful game.
And that ride into Mexico, man...
And please don't resurrect the tired old "when will Jeff play TLOU?!?!" argument. That got so fucking played out the last time around.
It's mostly on youtube, but I guess that's just hateful regardless.

That's your first mistake, reading Youtube comments. I imagine a lot of vile shit there every time Jeff is negative towards a game. But that's to be expected. Seems like it's mostly assholes commenting on GB videos on YT. Try reading the comments on the clip someone uploaded of Jeff's rant against NiGHTS into Dreams.

One of the best parts of the game. That song is beautiful.

as someone who loves old Westerns, and appreciates the glacial pace they tend to move at, I didn't find any portion of RDR slow or boring.

I had a shitload of trouble with the very encounter Brad was talking about in the TLOU QL on Hard as well but I stuck with it and after that I never had nearly as much trouble again.

Stranger's Wrath!
Twilight Princess has that fantastic Western-inspired archery segment, too.

Wow, Darkwatch! I never played the full game, but I do remember liking the demo that came with a copy of the Official Xbox Magazine.
Even though Jeff is absolutely correct about Yoshi, I can't quite fathom how anyone would be upset by his extremely tongue-in-cheek diatribe of a green, cartoon dinosaur from Mario games.
Yep I liked that as well. Kinda under-appreciated. Was a High Moon joint.
Haha, yeah, that's true.
I remember Jeff saying that he got a lot more hate back in the day though (maybe on a Jar time?) than he does now, mostly because his position as a review editor at Gamespot. He got a bunch of death threats, and if IIRC Sega fans were the worst by a mile.

That seems to be what happened. The Last of Us Remastered quick look is still on the tracker and that's already on the site, so who knows what's going on.
I'm going to guess it was about the Kardashian game making mucho dinero and a bunch of other indie devs working so hard, so very long, on their amazing artistic iOS game for $5 that has sold poorly/will sell poorly and man what an industry we live in huh?
Here's hoping I'm wrong.
It's an extented interview with the maker of The Room (which sold very well). I think he said so on Friday's Bombin'.
Shamans can't use swords though
Also, Dan's great, but saying TLOU has the best stealth is a bit overzealous
Yeah, I left out some titles, of course. Not to mention the games that have a western-y plot in terms of structure and themes without portraying the time period itself. I was wondering more about upcoming stuff, though, keep that train

Looking at upcoming, I see a Halfway QL.I forgot that even came out. I wonder how it fared? The publisher is getting major hassle from all fronts these days due to the lack of support around Starbound. I wonder why a dev would even hook up with them, as they are basically Hitler right now to a lot of people.
So Starbound is struggling that much to get out of Early Access? I haven't been following that game for a good while now.

They stopped pushing public updates to Starbound so they could double-down on actually developing the game... or something like that.
