I think the low quality skyboxes feel more immersive because it reflects what we see with our eyes better. A low LOD 3D model in the distance is always going to look too sharp yet not complex enough, whereas a low res image lets your brain more easily fill in the gaps because the detail is baked into whatever art or photo the skybox is using. I find that old Monster Hunter games have some of the most stunning landscapes in the series purely because everything has to be done with a skybox and they use some really cool techniques that make just have a vibe you can't get with newer mostly 3D backgrounds (though the skyboxes in the later games are often great, they aren't doing nearly as much legwork and therefor aren't as impactful).

I’d never thought I’d meet you off this video and subscribe and like it off this. But here we are. Love your personality and energy and logical humor. 😂

to austin, standng in a cave counts as a job

So they are basically communists. 18:46

i truly just adore your videos. they scratch that itch in the brain where no words can really describe. thank you for taking the time to make content like this. ik this isn't the video, but i'm a geologist and have shown your hydrology in video game videos to a lot of my peers and we all love them so much.

Why the hair clips? No judgement I am just so curious!!

I remember an occurrence where there was a buzzard (the normal version, not the police version) along with some police vehicles on a mountain. I don’t remember which one, but I remember this happening in single player and have never been able to find anything on it.

I really appreciate all the work you put in both your videos and your music and I hope you find happiness at least a little bit in your everyday. Thank you for all you do. We are all trying to just find ways to be happy and get through this difficult thing we call life. You help not just me, but hundreds even thousands of people a day with just these videos. Its small but you make a difference :)

Literally the best sponsorship ad ever.

so flooding and low water is about inbetween 4 feet

Bro wtf. I thought my headset was dying!

Does Austin ever actually tell us wtf he has on his head?

I can't wait for Austin to do a video on Red Dead 2. There's so much potential for a video in that game from this dude. Red Deads world is full of empty places but the environmental storytelling is all there. That's where Bethesda shines in my opinion, they have such great environmental storytelling that you can come across an empty, eerie place, but come across bodies and objects that allow you to come up with the story yourself. (Yes I know, Bethesda is not Rockstar)

The end of the ship docks, its difficult to get a car down there so it takes forever to get to the end and theres nothing down there at all

I think theres a foot race near the coast, and theres a bridge there that I think I walked over once. Could be mistaken

wow

I spent the first two mins of this video trying to figure out what wason his head. My me chuckle when I figured it out

most buildings before 1985 have wires connect to them but everything after 1990 have power connect underground

bluski 😂

I hope you do more of these. I love seeing people check out random, amateur cheap/free games... and I'm not just saying that becauae I make stuff like that. There are so many simple little games out there, varying in quality, but even the bad ones can make for interesting content with the right approach.

I like walking in Blaine county at night. The sound of sirens and coyotes feels nice!

I have to be in the mood for this channel but when I am it hits hard

i think the grid is good enough for gamming

this was mad rare

Fallout NV is the best because all of the Fallout universe is pretty much the Wild West, and NV just accepts it.

I actually find intresting the swamp and the mountains, because i like "testing" SUVs there, to know how good they are for off-roading.

When is the Shadow of the Colossus video?

Now I won't be able to play GTA VI normally as I will focus my attention on the utility poles and substations of Vice City and its surrounding. Thank you. 😂

I dont know if I would call rivet city guards cops.. Rivet city is in middle of a warzone and they defend city from super mutants. I think they are more soldiers than cops.

Great video!

Anyone ever tell you that you have a slight resemblance to Andrew Garfield?

that ad read transition was amazing

Soulless mobile game

real neat

Please please play cyberpunk 2077

Is it worth noting a potential GDP increase as the player levels up and more advanced products appear in shops? If the player doesn’t level but just passes time, the products don’t change. If the player levels, higher-tier stuff comes into the shops. What’s the effect of player agency here?

kzbin.info/www/bejne/jV7Qc3qer6uSoLc Nailed it!

Aren’t there mountain lions in the top right portion of the map? That’s not boring. 😊

Playing Skyrim on PS3. I was looking for the restoration teacher in the college of Winterhold. Looked for him for hours thought he died or despawned. Turns out he wedged himself between the open entry gate and a grey brick wall. He we stuck there for many in game days before I found him.

Bluesky 😂 yeah cya

I know you love me I wanna wad you up into my life Let's roll up to be a single star in the sky 😭😭

please do something like this or your GTAV videos with Cyberpunk. i love this type of shit.

8:13 surprise Jim Cummings. So Mickey’s Black Pete cleans the palace huh? Lemme guess, Poo Bear is the apiarist?

Immediately liked the video when he told me I was going to hell for lying if I said I've used those walkways

I like the empty places in the mountains because I can get any stolen car there and do some rally and jump of a cliff. After that I just go home to play some GTA V

Dude that outro was so prophet of you 😂

Do any swimming character from a GTA game

This dude is the based'est youtuber and you heard it from me 985th

Words cannot describe how much i hate the map of GTA 5, it feels so lazy and rushed even though its the complete opposite. I've waited years for GTA 4 when SA was the newest but it was worth it every day. And I've waited years for GTA 5 just to be completely disappointed. I love Rockstar and TakeTwo, they're one of my favourite studios/publishers but GTA 5 was a big letdown for me. Strange enough, i still own it on multiple platforms and also the next gen versions. It is still a Rockstar title which alteady says enough but if i had to rank it, it would be at the last place of all 3D GTA titles.

absolutely love the concept and commentary on this. but i think what u suggest as most boring is actually still interesting. there's a clear trodden path suggesting the presence of living behaviour. whether it's humans, or like my cats have created, a little route through the wildlife. it still tells a story.
