spoilerNo it switches up to Kano for the end really. The last thing we really see of them other than support for Kano is trying to meet up with the boob job lady during the ending credits which I think implies they're interested in surgery of a kind.

Yeah the show clearly could have benefitted from a second cour to expand further. It does feel more like a mid-show peak rather than a finale.

I firmly believe capitalism is incapable of creating Dyson Spheres.

Yeah they're just not going to get it. There will be something missing, the overall audience will know something is missing but won't be able to articulate it.

What will ultimately happen is that through successive games people in a boardroom will zero in on "what makes GTA good?" and "What is GTA's identity?" and then exaggerate that to a degree that becomes flanderised. They will misunderstand the injection of reality that exists in it, the genuine attempt at a cultural product and the real attempt at a material basis to its contents. Most importantly they probably won't be political enough, it's an incredibly political game series that has always delivered something different even if it's fucked up in places with its stereotypes that aged poorly.

I think we'll see this in the new game immediately. But it won't be until the game afterwards that it really kicks in.

Huh, the US banned Kaspersky as Spyware yesterday.

The new game is going to have dogshit writing. Dan Houser has been the head writer on every single game, he is the reason they've been focused on class or included content about america's anti-marxism in latam or yugoslavia etc.

Without him I'm convinced the games will not really understand what the foundational cornerstone of them really is. The new writing will do "haha be a criminal, it's great" without the "why are people criminals though?" question being included which is the class and material conditions element.

In fairness we have townhall meetings of entire halls of people laughing at the conservative candidates. There is real contempt there. And these are halls filled with 40+ people not youth that hate them even more.

This should scare the shit out of imperialist navies.

Can you tell the difference between this unmanned boat and a manned boat?

Typical procedure is to warn off boats, but what you need to do with this is shoot it enough to render it inoperable. These could easily get close enough before people realise what a threat they are.
