      Roll it up with gunpowder, stick it in my ears, and light it on fire?

      Rockstar have been pieces of shit for decades. Didn’t change anything then, and unfortunately, it probably won’t now.

      Like y’all don’t know what to do with GTA VI.

      Wait 2 goddamn extra years or however long until they release it for PC.

      The good news is by then I can easily justify upgrading my PC too. Right now it’s hard to justify upgrading from my RTX 3060 Ti, but by 2027 or 2028 when the PC version comes out, I’m sure that there’s something enticing available from all 3 GPU manufacturers (yay, we almost have competition now) and I can get the hell off Nvidia again finally.

        Hold your horses, Intel is going through some stuff, and I hope the GPU division survives.

          Ugh I hope if it doesn’t they’ll at least sell it off to someone who can realistically keep it running. Though I have no idea who that would be at this point.

          It’s going to suck if we’re back to the duopoly.

        Play it so much that you don’t notice your crew set your beard on fire and left without you?

          Huh, I assumed that photo was just AI nonsense. But from the Wikipedia article:

          He was reported to have tied lit fuses (slow matches) under his hat to frighten his enemies.
