On the cop spawning issue (with videos):

That's actually quite bad :lol:

Hugh. The bit about the developers being unable to implement a good enough driving AI, making NPCs cheat instead, is also disappointing.

Definitely waiting for the GOTY version.

I'm not sure some problems in this game can be fixed without a complete rework from the ground up.

Maybe I had smaller expectations and/or the console versions are really borked but it sounds like we are playing different games.

I definitely had little expectations as I wasn't following the hype machine and pre-release coverage at all. Still gonna wait for a few more patches before giving this a proper go.

Apparently the game is in a quite sorry state for the now-older consoles (PS4 / XBox One) - they spent more time prioritizing PC and next-gen consoles.

I definitely think that some people hyped this game up for themselves too much. It was never going to be a life simulator or redefine the very idea of what a video game could do. That said, there are definitely a lot of flaws in the actual game the company delivered and people asking for their money back is perfectly reasonable. Get your money back and buy the game again in six months after patches and possibly reworked game systems.

What is it about the penises I'm hearing?

Well, sometimes, when a mommy and a daddy love each other very much...

So basically like every other big game release. People get way too insane about these things.

Jim Sterling had a good video this week where he points out that games discourse is largely broken, because there's a loud, vocal group who seek validation through their games and can't handle negative press about things they like. Besides pointing out the toxicity of the discussion he suggested they should find a new hobby as they clearly can't handle video games.

Using Apu in a meme is super cringe.  It's not 2019 anymore.
