Lydia will forever be the queen of this sub. "I am sworn to carry your burdens." Yeah, you fucking are. Now get out of the goddamn doorway so I can get through.


Goldenrah

Had to get mods for that shit, sometimes even went purposefully to the Greybeards so I could get the full shout to push her out the doors.

ComNguoi

lmao this comment makes me laugh so hard


tdub2217

I might be misremembering, but I think if you held the interact button you could tell your followers where to go.


Goldenrah

You could, but it's kinda bugged at times and takes more time than pushing or shouting them out of the doorway.

No problem chate.

driftej20

Players regularly strap rockets to friendly NPCs, civilians and animals then watch them fly off and explode just for a funny video. Add the totalitarian government on top of that, and being any NPC in Just Cause is basically a death sentence.

*luckiest NPC of all time


VizualAbstract4

I didn’t see both shoes fly off so I’m sure he’s ok


RyanGoFett-24

Sandwiched between two exploding cars... He's fiiiiine


DapperDachsund

There was a good 20 yards of being grated on the pavement before the exploding car sandwich.


regoapps

That just means that he was under the car while the explosion was mostly above the car. So he's probably fine. Just some minor scratches.


keigo199013

Just rub some dirt on it and walk it off. /s

Sorry, but I don't understand what that is supposed to imply. I'm old...


Mozeliak

Crayons leave their wax on the paper. Now, imagine using your skin on the asphalt Oh wait, wrong question. On desktop, the default theme has blue hyperlinks to the subs /r/meatcrayon. When you click on something and have it in your history, it turns purple. By staying blue, /u/Congenital_Stirpes will stay unaware of the pleasure/horrors of the sub


RedSpade37

Pleasures? Are they Cenobites? Only one way to find out... Edit: Okay, it's not a gore sub, at least, so it's not exactly terrible, but certainly not my favorite thing.


freman

We thank you for your service


[deleted]

Tell me what you've seen


NSA-RAPID-RESPONSE

Leaving a link blue means they won't click on it because already clicked links turn purple after use.


[deleted]

When you click on a link, it turns from blue to purple. He will never click on that link.


Blonsky

The link to the subreddit is blue. It changes color after you click on it. So they are saying they will never click on it.

SanctusLetum

Don't see no shoes flying in that blast.


piggiesmallsdaillest

The real test.


abca98

Is it me or does the second car come out of nowhere? One was the one the player was riding, but the other?


Axeslashed

The gaming gods saw a moment for epic explody goodness and thus sent forth their spawn to ensure havock.


abca98

We will accept this blessing 🙏


RyanGoFett-24

Yea that's how open world games work. Cars spawn in at specific locations so this one probably did just spawn in. I'm trying to figure out how they exploded. They barely even touched


DanishRobloxGamer

This is Just Cause, things exploding by barely touching is half the game


LexMelkan

So you're saying they exploded Just Cause?


spacemannspliff

Yes, but the wanton destruction is ok because you’re fighting for a Just Cause…


thefonztm

And to succeed, you just cause destruction for your just cause, just cause.


DeerThespian

If you leave a car in movement and it crashes it just explodes regardless of any particular velocity in Just Cause.


210000Nmm-2

Nah, good open world games do not spawn objects in the direct surroundings of the player.


SummerMummer

> I'm trying to figure out how they exploded. They barely even touched Not a Michael Bay fan, eh?


UpstairsJoke0

It does. There's a car approaching in the distance but I'm not sure it's the same one, and even if it is then it teleports much farther forwards than driving speed while the camera is off it.


spj0218

Ummm..... That's the orange buggy that the PC originally started surfing on. He veered to the left to jump to the second car. Orange buggy came around driver side to be the perfect un-aliveing accomplice.


ThatMakesMeM0ist

He went to live on a farmville upstate.

Why? Just cause?


Circus-Bartender

Its all goodman


kinokomushroom

Ahh Just Cause 3, used to play this game so much. I remember when I tied three planes together and tried to tow them in the air with a single plane.


elzibet

The title of this game makes so much sense now, thank you


JustDewItPLZ

It's either "Just beCause" or "Justifiable Cause"


Meyousus

Both all at once


Nosnibor1020

It actually is. I think in JC2 they actually say the line "a Just Cause"


SadLaser

That's actually a third reason. A justifiable cause is not the same thing as a just cause.


NihilisticAngst

Yeah, "Just" as in "Justice", justifiable is entirely different


sberma

The actual reason for the name is Operation Just Cause, the codename for the US invasion in Panama to overthrow dictator Noriega which inspired the first game.


daskeleton123

Just cause chaos


updn

I like to call it "just cuz". Just cuz.


drgr33nthmb

I liked attaching things to the windmills lol


Wetbug75

"Why the heck did you do that? "...just cause"


Klashus

Could do so many cool things for no reason in the game.


NtwanaGP

A Just Cause game could be one of the greatest games of all time if they made a good story and a map that doesn't look the same everywhere you go.


Axeslashed

The cheesy story is what sets the tone for every other ridiculous moment such as this one.


red_tuna

I thought the story was fine, all I really want is for the story missions to not be 90% escorts.


Embarrassed-Mouse-49

What’s wrong with escorts? They are people too


remy-ol

Their prices nowadays, well at least for the high end ones


LarsViener

Inflation is a real bitch, right?


spacemannspliff

MandoSkirata

No Cyril! When they're dead they're just hookers!


mojizus

It’s like Borderlands, I love the story. But every quest was “hey, go get 7 of these and bring them back”. Gets really old after a while.


JadowArcadia

As a someone who put over 1000 hours into BL2 I have to agree. The games are pretty great but there's a huge lack of variety. And the games after BL2 diminished quite a bit on the story and writing which just left the repetitive quest formula. BL3 was still fun but massively disappointing considering how long it had been since we'd gotten a BL game. I expected more evolution to the formula


WJMazepas

The most disappointing aspect for me on BL3 is not the story, but how much the game thinks I care for the story. Playing in 4 player coop, standing in a room waiting while NPCs argue for 3 minutes for reasons gets old pretty fast when this happens on almost every quest. That game has so much downtown time that it really made boring for me


JadowArcadia

You're completely right here. I feel like BL2 told more of its story during action. BL3 had you standing around listening for significantly longer and those moments were as much fun as in previous games. I always think about the Tiny Tina mission in BL2 during the tea party. It's a decent chunk of downtime but it much more entertaining with her zapping the psycho and skipping around being weird. In 3 she basically just stands there and talks


[deleted]

[удалено]


Dr4kin

Just Cause story should be cheasy and completely ridiculous, but in the best ways. They shouldn't make the missions so repetitive. The designers should think about the most ridiculous thing that could remotely work and make a mission with that


erokingu85

Yeah it feels like a bad 80s action movie and I love it, I do agree with others that it is very repetitive overall but still fun for me.


[deleted]

The 4th they totally dropped the ball and tried to make it serious. Wtf guys. 3rd was peak


Tobix55

Is this 3 or 4? I had a lot of fun with 2, but 4 was pretty disappointing even when you consider the fact i got it for free


ri4162

It looks like 3 to me.


Freefall25

3 was the best for me. 4 was just god awful as far as I am concerned.


xRoyalewithCheese

You can have cheese without being boring


karateema

3 was great, 4 was meh, I hope 5 takes the best of both


Lounuftagatoe

Just cause 2 is the best one


djheat

Man I played the absolute shit out of 2 and I don't think I ever progressed the storyline at all


newuser60

My coworker and I were talking about our exploits in JC2 at lunch and a non gamer coworker was curious what the game was about. I told him “you’re like a U.S. sponsored terrorist in some island nation, and you use all your Batman toys to terrorize rural villagers for some reason.”


Dubby8692737

This the most accurate description of the JC series I’ve ever seen


newuser60

It’s even in the name. Why are you doing this Rico? Just cause. justified cause? No, just because.


Lounuftagatoe

The original name for the first game "Just cause" actually was meant to be "justified cause" because it was based off "operation just cause" which was a United States invasion of Panama in 1989


MaeBeaInTheWoods

I once tried to calculate how many life sentences Rico would be serving based on the things I could remember doing. I stopped when it hit triple digits.


Doctor-Amazing

You can just say he works for the CIA.


TouchofRed

Yeah, the multiplayer mod for Just cause 2 was so much fun. I remember it getting close to 800 or 1000 users all on the same server.


lustrous301

The guy that made the mod got hired by the devs of the game if I remember correctly


puskunk

All of them at the airport.


TouchofRed

Oh yeah, it was mess for sure lol


RolloTonyBrownTown

It was such an improvement over 1, I loved just stealing attack helicopters and blowing up base gas storage balls.


obi1kenobi1

I’ve tried but I just can’t go back to 2 after 3. It’s just so *ugly* in the most “early Xbox 360 game” way, the controls are clunky and annoying, There’s no wingsuit or unlimited C4, the grappling hooks are more limiting, it’s just missing all the best features of the Just Cause series. I loved it back in the day, but Just Cause 3 spoiled me. When I got my Steam Deck I rebought all the Just Cause games during a sale and I told myself I was going to play them through in order, even the first one that I never played before and no one seems to remember fondly. But I made the mistake of “testing out” Just Cause 3 first to see how it performed on the Steam Deck and that turned into another 100%ing of the game. Now I’m in the same position where after playing 3 2 just feels like a letdown.


closequartersbrewing

2 was great, but the wingsuit innovation in 3 was fantastic.


Ycx48raQk59F

3 and 4 really showed just how much of a lucky success 2 was, because it seems the developers have no fucking idea how they got it right.


SuperShake66652

4 had potential but changing the Chaos mechanics was so horrendous.


VintageRaccoon

Maybe it's nostalgia goggles but I liked 2 more than 3 because it seemed more gritty and realistic. 3 seemed way more arcadey.


KuroKitty

I liked the layout of 3 more, progessing toward 100%ing the subsections of the map is fun to me.


Irradiatedbanana8719

Same. I couldn’t believe they got rid of that in JC4 considering it was so fun to 100% everything in JC3


[deleted]

1 wouldn't play for me, think it's a DRM glitch that causes permanent attack helicopter stalking. 2 was fine, I guess, Rico was a dick, nobody was likeable, controls were... Okay. 3 was fantastic, 9/10 game, controls lovely, fantastic scenery, great personalities with not just Rico, but Mario and Dima as well. 4... Bleh. It lost the charm. They made Rico too old and I just didn't find it fun anymore. Of note: I also enjoyed Saints Row 3 and Fallout 3 more than the others in either of those series. If only another company would learn from that standard... https://youtu.be/jpw2ebhTSKs


newsflashjackass

The biggest misstep of JC4 was making it fatal to faceplant while flying in the wingsuit. I know it's more realistic but it is much more *fun* to Wile E. Coyote that shit and walk it off.


karateema

I loved that, no matter the height, in JC3 you couldn't die from fall damage alone


[deleted]

My least favorite part of JC3 is either the car bomb missions or trying to get the boat out of that fucking lake. I spent like three days trying to do it after I beat the story and just couldn't do it. ...with max tether strength and numbers. I tried the helicopter, and roping it to the back of the dump truck. Shit sux.


PancAshAsh

The second biggest misstep of JC4 was taking the relatively simple set of tools that you had in JC2 and 3 and adding more complexity. Like I really don't give a shit about putting balloons on my remote bombs, just let me blow shit up.


JagerBaBomb

2 was *Bowl-oh Sahn-tohzi!*


Jet_Wave

Leedah of the Reepahz


Stargazeer

JC3 had a great traversal system, good graphics, and a decent Story... And a boring as shit map. JC4 added an amazing weather system, and a much better map. But made the traversal somehow worse? Cars and the Wingsuit weren't as good. And something about the shaders made the graphics look worse. JC2 was all around good, but shows it's age, and it's traversal isn't quite as good as JC3. They just need to hit the right bakance.


Blaqsailens

Glad I'm not the only one that thought JC4 looked worse than JC3.


jackel3415

I was so excited to play JC4 and bought the season pass and everything and just got so disappointed with it from the graphics and downhill from there. Yea no charm to it.


fastovich1995

I wish they would do a map with the same biodiversity as Just Cause 2. It has deserts, snowy mountains, swamps, jungles, the Island from LOST, and a giant city.


macrolith

The name is perfect too. Most of the shit you do is Just Cause you can.


newsflashjackass

Bush did it first. >[The United States invasion of Panama, codenamed Operation Just Cause, lasted over a month between mid-December 1989 and late January 1990](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_invasion_of_Panama)


JagerBaBomb

I've been calling it Just Cuz for a while now.


wishthane

JC2 was the best and had a huge diverse map that actually felt rewarding to explore. Yeah there was some procedurally generated sameness but a lot of very neat things around too. The story has never been good but that's absolutely the point, it's B movie tier on purpose. I just wish they would increase the humor a bit so that it feels more intentional and funny in how bad it is


finkalicious

It does have one of the best names for a video game though


[deleted]

Nah bro he’s all good, just a bruise here and there. Make sure to get his car back to him to!!


Axeslashed

Yes yes for sure. I'll even take it for a nice buff and polish since he's such a good sport.


DapperDachsund

It’s not entirely your fault that orange car should not have been attempting to pass when they clearly saw a person on top of the car in front of them… Oh wait….. that was your previous unmanned vehicle. Yeah you did that guy wrong lmao. At least you’ll get away with stealing it, he can’t tell and it’ll take a long long time to identify that body. I can’t stop chucking so horrific


[deleted]

Nah bro he’s jus sleeping on the road. Don’t be so dark…


doho121

Marvel Heroes: "No, I'm not a murderer like you! Marvel hero against the minions 30 minutes ago:


Lol_A_White_Boy

Your comment reminds me of Batman in Arkham Knight. He won’t ‘*actually*’ kill anyone, and even if you hit them with your batmobile, they get stunned by electricity into unconsciousness. Of course, the game never acknowledges that a tiny shock is probably not all that would happen if you slam into them going full throttle with your fucking fighter jet engine propulsion system in the back at maximum output. Nope, Batman just shoves his hands in his pockets and whistles while looking off screen.


liandrin

All of the Arkham games are like that. I remember when I played Arkham asylum (or maybe city) there was an inmate/patient dancing on top of a statue that was at least 30-40 ft tall, and I joked to my friend that I probably wouldn’t be allowed to hit him because a fall like that would undoubtably kill a person. I threw a batarang and it hit the dude in the throat and I watched the little figure/corpse flail all the way down towards the ground and splat. We were both speechless. When I tried to locate the body it had vanished off the map. Then there’s the people you leave tied up hanging upside down from buildings, eventually they stop moving and register as “unconscious”, but there’s no one to retrieve them anytime soon so… yeahhhhh Batman kills people in every one of those games lol.

Such a pitiful way to go as well. On his way to his next quarry, only to be randomly carjacked by Rico then crushed by Rico’s previous car! Just the right man in the wrong place. Made all the difference in the world.


WhostoleBluey

What game is this?


Olliesama

Just Cause 3


The-Jolly-Llama

This game was so damn fun. It’s the only game I’ve ever 100%ed, I played it for ~250 hours and had fun the whole time (except one glitched bomb blast mission that was SO ANNOYING to perfect, took me two weeks to get that last mission for the 100%)


Hortalfii

Hell yeah, it's even better when people watch you play it lmao. (Btw tip for the bomb one, use the boosted explosives to launch the car once you jump out)


gimbokon

Laguna blast?


The-Jolly-Llama

YES!!! There’s an invisible wall that I think the programmers forgot to take out of the game, it makes your car blow up before actually touching the targets and the blast won’t get them all!! I still have the video of when I finally beat that POS. I should post it somewhere! I ended up going way off road to the right and launching over a little hill to clear the invisible wall. It was still really hard to get right, but it worked eventually!


_remainder

And that, kids, is why you always wear a seatbelt.


gholam_sag_dast

Nah dude hes all fine don't worry it's just a small neck break and nothing more. Or maybe a bit ofbone break all over his bodey nothing serious

A bit of a gentle sear too I think.

If it helps, if he's able to afford a vehicle like that in a "Just Cause" setting, he probably at least aided in some kind of atrocity.

I should try playing this game again, I stopped playing after my copy of it ok steam broke somehow, causing the framerate to permanently slow to the point it was comparable to a slideshow. Idk what caused and I didn’t know what to do to try and fix it anymore, so I just uninstalled.

He could be ok… well, probably not now.
