Interesting. It gave me pause, because I kinda saw GTA IV as a step back from what I wanted/expected from the series. It's very gray and realistic. Gone are the random weapon pickups and powerups, kill frenzies and rampages (actually those were removed in SA but you know what I mean). Obviously the graphics were a huge step up. The way you could fly through the windshield and the drunk physics were top notch, and I ended up enjoying the story and the gameplay. It's not a bad game, or a bad GTA by any means. Still, I'd would sooner replay VC or SA than IV.

I liked how GTA V brought back some of the stuff. It's not as arcadey as the old 3D games, but it's more colourful, both in design and the characters. And the mechanic of switching between 3 protagonists works remarkably well and makes it stand out.

Damn. I'd love to see Dark Forces 5: Jedi Knight 4: Jedi Outcast 3: Jedi Academy 2

Wait, a new Jedi Outcast sequel is in the works?!

Are you singling out VC and SA? o.0

The series in question didn't really disappoint me since it started almost 30 years ago. When it moved to 3D it was pretty mindblowing - a lot of games stumbled when they attempted that, but this series was better than ever.

And the upcoming game is returning to a setting that was my favourite in the series, so yeah. I'm excited to play it.

Not gonna pay for it, but definitely looking forward to playing it at some point. Whatever you think about the developer, I don't see them messing it up too much.

You stopped reading too soon:

Unfortunately, comets would affect the Earth's temperature in another way. In addition to dust and water, they contain a small amount of CO2, which would be released into the atmosphere as the comet melted. This CO2 would change Earth's radiation balance

I think I'll rather read Project Hail Mary for the fourth time.

Holding them to higher standards would mean prosecuting their failures more. Like a ton more, that part is obviously needed. But the threat of death penalty does nothing but satisfy lust for revenge.

...why? What purpose does it serve?
