The Miscellaneous PC & vidya Games Thread

I tried steam link for the first time.
Laptop downstairs a metre from the rooter and pc hooked up by cable.
It... Didn't work. There's just enough input lag to make anything with action unplayable and ought else annoying. Sad times.

I don't mind the body shape of the GoW Thor.

Not sure why he feels the need to armour his shoulders and arms, but not his chest and abdomen. The hammer is better than the Marvel one, but still looks a bit silly to me.

My assumption is he's in a bit of a battle of the bulge and his weight fluctuates - so he needs some breathing room round his belly.

It's a stupid complaint. Actual strongmen such as in the world's strongest man contest, as opposed to body builders (oh look at my muscles) , do have this build.

What does a God need with a breastplate?

Manuel Noriega was an actual strongman, and he didn't have that shape.

I know "it's magic" can be used as an explanation for any game design decision, no matter how daft. It doesn't make the shoulder and arm armour but exposed chest any less silly.

That is probably the most compelling explanation possible given the circumstances

Indeed, you buy whole new fat armor and stuff and you lose a little weight and that doesn't fit so well but the old stuff is still too tight.  Might as well wait until you knock off a few more post-holiday pounds or decide to stick with the chunkiness.

An actual Thor looks more like what a one would expect.

GTA San Andreas was very RPG-y with a gazillion things to do. GTA 4 was slimmed down to more of an action-adventure. Where is GTA 5 on this scale?

Yeah I had this guy in mind specifically. Quite a difference between his competition look and when he drops the weight

[Syt]

Also, the Thor of myth is known to be a bit of a glutton.

[The Brain]

And Mimir calls Thor fat in the previous game.

Fat or Phat?
