RDR2 never ceases to amaze me. Brought a bounty in (alive) and tossed him into the cell. Went to the saloon and got into a dust up. Picked up a wanted level. Surrendered to the police only to be put in the same cell as the guy I just brought in. I can only imagine the level of shit-talking he did.

Episode Five, Post-Launch Update, with info on incoming bug fixes and, as Terry would say, "other stuff". hinterlandforums.com/forums/topic...

A small thing, but seeing the "Blackrock" text from the ballistic vest looks awesome.

Reason 1,382 that I love working @shacknews.com - We don't work April 1 because it's a stupid day to work in news and we would rather pretend it doesn't exist. See you all on Thursday.

🚨 EPISODE FIVE launches tomorrow (March 31st) at 10AM Pacific. 🚨 If you want to tune in to join 1000s of other fans for a Launch Trailer watch party, subscribe to our Youtube channel. The trailer will go live just before 10AM Pacific tomorrow!! www.youtube.com/@hinterlandstudio

Episode 5 is the best of the Wintermute story. Wintermute is currently discounted on Steam and you'd be a fool if you didn't play it from start to finish.

Trophy shots in Way of the Hunter 2 are great.

Our Crimson Desert map is live and being updated by Aidan O'Brien. In his words he'll be doing this, until "...the end of days." Reminder that we're always free. Every feature. Track as much as you want. Our competitors who shall not be named let you track two categories and then you have to pay.

We're at the point where Shackmaps breaks its own traffic records every month, and usually in the first half of the month. Nothing like the smell of sustainable growth in the morning.

Way of the Hunter 2 is out today and so is our map of the first region. We should have another map hitting Shackmaps in the next day or so.

The Martian is one of my favourite movies. Project Hail Mary stands beside it. Loved it from start to finish.

Me looking at Shackmaps analytics.

Should have done it.

I'm still trying to figure out how he got a kill with a stun grenade. He must have hit the other player and they were at such low health it finished them off?

I would spend way too much time hanging out at this bar.

I did this again today and received a reply asking for the best discount. There's no discount. You want to cut SEO corners and get shitty casino posts on Shacknews, $1,000 USD for me to consider it.

Sometimes I think about how far away Fallout 5 is, and how Microsoft likes to speak to Todd Howard and express opinions, and I get incredibly sad.

Current playthrough of RDR2 is at 3 days and 2 hours and I'm just hitting Chapter 6 now. My most thorough playthrough ever because I might be doing this for a secret project about maps.

Things aren't going great.

So you're saying if I keep my current GPU I'll never have to deal with DLSS5? Thanks, NVIDIA.

Excited to play this. Excited to know how it all wraps up. Excited to start hearing more about Blackfrost and the future.

Garbage ass bullshit. Justifying layoffs because you want to align your studios with what matters most to players is multiple levels of trash behavior that goes beyond laying people off. If you want to run a terrible company that doesn't value people, own it.

This was actually taken while it was pouring rain at night but you couldn't see anything so I used photo mode to clear it up. As daunting as this looks, it was so much worse!

Nothing like a nap on the side of a giant mountain. Cairn is a tough game. Amazing, but tough.

I don't get this article. Loads of games that cost $40 (or more) sell cosmetics at launch. The prices are on par with other games I've seen. I get it if you don't like this, but it's not a Marathon/Bungie thing.

👀

C'mon, @theathletic.com. I'm subscribed and I see ads. Every time I visit the site I'm asked via banner to recruit friends and family. The point of paying a subscription is to avoid this crap. I have to sit through ads and be pestered I'm out.

ShackStream: Breath of the Wild 9th Anniversary Trial of the Sword Super Challenge Race

New generative AI statement for @hinterland.bsky.social's games, being added first to the Episode Five build launching at the end of March. (Needs some formatting tweaks for widescreens apparently...😅)

Yeah, if you hit me with key enclosed and the key isn't enclosed, I'm probably out just to spite that approach.

So many games I need to play for work, which means I desperately want to revisit something old. I'd love a run through Fallout 4 or The Witcher 3 right now.

Season 3 of Night Agent was good. Some Jason Bourne stuff with a 24 vibe. If you're into that kinda thing it's good.

I love telling folks that want a "paid post" on Shacknews that the fee is $1,000 USD for consideration, with no guarantee that we will ever post your article.

I'm surgical with a Little Bird. I know BS is going to compress the hell out of this, but try to imagine it looking crisp!

It's times like these that you should play DayZ. When you do, use our map!

Where I post from. Yeah, I'm using more than one.

When the bullets start flying @duhstee.bsky.social stops, drops a gas attack on everyone. Friendly. Enemy. Bystander. Everyone gets the gas.

Doug Ford is a fucking moron, but Liberals have to put up a candidate that doesn't just stand there pissing their pants every day or we're going to get another decade of this fool.

Had the worst game of my life, but we went 4-0 on the new Contamination map. I'm told I should be happy the team succeeded even though I played like butt. 🥴

Rousey and Carano never wanted to fight in their primes. Too much to lose on both sides. Now that their popularity has tanked compared to 10 years ago, and they've revealed themselves to be ass hats, it's time to fight! No thanks.

Shared this really tough news last week. Here's the list of impacted folks. If you're at a game studio with open roles, please take a look and let us know if we can make any intros. These are all great devs and we want to help them find new jobs ASAP. docs.google.com/spreadsheets...

Like it or not, we need a much larger, stronger, and technologically advanced military than what we have now.
