Why would people want to role play as them? Unless they're also terrible

    My coworker outed himself as fucking awful. He was talking about the game and how he's so hyped about it and then says "they even have pride parades, so you know what I'm doing!" and makes a gesture of loading a shotgun...

    I figured he was that kind of asshole but he never said anything that direct before.

    I mean, people do all kinds of things in games they never want to do in real life. Smashing up a parade with a shot gun would be fun. And if it's pride, it's even more fun because it's just so wrong. You know?

    When I was playing gta, I had so much fun just hitting people on the street. Who didn't do that? And who didnt look at the girls in very inappropriate ways?

    Games are games. It doesn't mean your collegue is an asshole. When I was playing duke nukem in the 90s, I was playing co-op and I laughed my ass off when I killed my buddies with remote triggered explosives. I mean I was laughing so I got tears coming out of my eyes. :)

    It's just games. And when we start acting politically correct in games, it's all over. We have become machines.

    I get what you're getting at, and to an extent I agree.

    Simultaneously, to me it feels like there's something off about being hyped up to specifically shoot up a pride parade in a game that has yet to be released. That feels very pointed.

    okay, so behavior in games can be assholey, like if you go around explicitly trying to ruin someone else's fun. (i have this asshole [former] associate who was one of those foul everyone in basketball, play rogue in dungeons and dragons and steal from everyone in the party and start fights, and then cry "it's just a game" when people got mad at them) but if they're just running around in RDR torching klansmen, tally ho comrade i'm in.

    It's news to me that GTA protagonists are typically upstanding moral citizens... I haven't played GTA since 2, but I seem to remember going on mass killing sprees. Not to try and equate very different crimes but that's gotta be at least in the same area code as mass child sex trafficking and abuse...

    I mean, people can be conventionally attractive, and also do awful things. Equating beauty with goodness and ugliness with evil is some Disney movie morality.

    That dude who wanted pride flags removed from Spiderman. This is his mod. Epstein is his,favorite dude.

    Not joking.

    That's all very, very likely true.

    Each gta is sort of like a cultural snapshot, I wouldn't be surprised if this sort of thing was in the base game.

    Pass, I have no desire to cosplay as a man responsible for the rape and murder of children.

    But, you can get wasted by SWAT over and over, that could be cathartic in its own way.

    That would be something. Rockstar of old would probably put in a scathing parody of the grifter in chief.

    Somehow I don't think they have that kind of balls, though.
