    It looks real bad. I surfed reddit looking for people talking about it before I bought it and people were posting stuff that looked decent, I waited til late yesterday to buy it just to see if people were talking about it and I saw a few comments and some people posted videos that looked decent.

    I gotta say though, the textures are horrible. I feel like I'm playing an original playstation game. The controls are pretty wonky too but nothing I wouldn't get used to.

    I just wanna know if they are going to fix the textures and overall graphics. I'm considering getting my money back.

    I want to apologize for my joke. I do understand that ti can be a difficult subject sometimes. Especially when the desire to have a child exists and there are complications. I just saw the opportunity to make a play on words and jumped right in. I wasn't the best choice. I should have "read the room" better.

    I really cross my fingers that any sprogs I bring into this world will not be dyslexic/dysgraphic/etc.

    I mean, mine is pretty mild but I still stare at the screen half the time, wondering if I added in an extra letter or messed up the order that I cannot visualize.

    Oh yeah, I'm not really involved in this whole discussion, it's just a fun story to tell. I shared it with someone recently who's 30-something and worried about her timeframe.

    Anyway, no yolks about it, just wanted to chime in!

    It's still fun but I was playing Fortnite for the last couple months and right now I gotta say that Fortnite is the better game.

    I was really looking forward to pubG but maybe I'll play that one on PC when I get the rest of my parts.

    wait....there's a name for what I kept doing? dysgraphic? I used to forget to put in words like "and" and "the" and "it" and other small little words when writing. I always joked that my brain was just going too fast and they forgot to make the corner around my elbow when trying to get from my brain to the pen.....Cool, now I'm worried about bringing in kids that have this stuff too!
