Hey y'all
 
Sorry for popping up here so rarely
 
anyways wish you guys a happy new year and hope all your wishes/resolutions come to fruition
 
have a good one

Is there a reason you are compiling linux kernels/distros?  Just for general use there's no reason to do anything other than download a USB image and install.
 
 
I haven't had to do this in a while for any of my systems, but I don't recall it requiring you to be online -- it's just in settings > apps & features.  You don't need to open the Windows store at all to change this.  It's a system setting. 🤷‍♂️
 

If I'm not mistaken, don't Macs by default only allow you to install software from the Apple Store?  Pretty sure you have to go into security settings to enable installing apps from other locations in MacOS as well.  Apple is actually the one who did this first iirc.

While that sucks, fact of the matter is that there are clearly MORE people who like the online, since it's still healthy after all this time.
 
Single-player mode lovers may suffer but it seems like they're in the minority.

People hating on endless GTA Online but it's actually a really great game with a ton of things to do.  I spent TONS of time in that game and had a blast the whole time.

2020 is fucking wild.

2020 nasty. Get it out of here

AC games are open world, but definitely have nowhere near the complexity of a GTA or Red Dead.  Racing games are also nowhere near as complicated.
 
If GTAO didn't exist GTA 6 might come sooner, but it would probably still not be out by now.
 
Red Dead II started preliminary development in 2010, and it came out only 2 years ago.
 
People have come to expect ALL the bells and whistles when a GTA comes out, and the work required to do something like that only increases over time.

I would argue most people buying the game in 2020 are buying it for the MP alone.  I'm sure almost everyone who would have bought it for the single player already did so long ago.
 
Even if they aren't online or playing concurrently, I bet a lot of the new purchases/downloads are for people who want to play GTAO.
 
I think it's smart to keep supporting GTA Online because it's something people clearly want, and continue to buy.  Single player games simply do not have the same sales life that online/service games do.
 
I struggle to think of any single-player, 7 year old game that continues to be purchased by this many people year after year.  (Except maybe Skyrim or something)
 
 
It's not 2001 anymore.  The type of game people would want GTA 6 to be would require a staggering amount of work and manpower.  Expecting games to release at the same cadence as years past while simultaneously being bigger, more complex, and having better graphics is unrealistic.
 
Part of the reason they probably cling to GTAO so much is because the amount of work GTA 6 would require is insane.  GTA V itself was already a massive undertaking.
 
Cyberpunk had a team of over 500 people and was in development for many years, and it's still an unfinished mess.  You can guarantee any modern GTA game will be several times larger in scope.  Comparing how long it takes to make a huge open world game now vs during the PS2 or even PS3 days is a bit ridiculous.

I'd say it's funny but I can't get over the fact that they used the word "twote".
