It kinda feels like you do, or you would have dropped it by now.
No I really dont. But it doesnt meant I allow myself to be outtalked by someone who know nothing about it.
My personal life requires of me to have at least basic knowledge of various topic and I speak only when Im certain.

how I see it it's his world it doesn't need to follow real world realism 100% to me it's close enough that it's believable. Also sometimes it's better to do things that wouldn't make sense in the real world just to move a story forward.

And that exactly how its supposed to be. Its all in your rights to have own opinion and own thoughts, you allow yourself to have this close enough window to like it.
Do you know what I learned today? That here I am wrong even if Im right. People used arguments like "its his story, he can do what he want or like you, about not being 100% accurate its fine" so tell me, why he was arguing with me how REAL FBi operate in REAL world? Many here uses false arguments to prove something while clearly dev actually wanted to have FBI as much as real one as possible. He was wrong, didnt want to admit it and still I am evil one here for valid arguments.
It would be enough to say "yeah I fked up this fbi thing, didnt make efford enough, you are right" but nooo.... so much hate in you people.

Thanks for the lessons cupcakes :)

can't speak for the dev I was just saying that's how I see things and why it doesn't matter to me. If he was trying to argue with you and got facts wrong meh who cares not a big deal to me. Not gonna stop me from enjoying this game.

Truth be told from reading both your post and his I don't even know who is right and who is wrong, I don't know enough or care to. From my point of view didn't seem like he was arguing with you at all but stating what he believes is / correct or at the very least saying how it works in his games world. If I was wrong and he was trying to say that's how X works in real life I see it as both of you just believe it works differently didn't even seem like a argument at all to me but just a disagreement as both of you believe it works differently. Seems like you are the one saying he was arguing with you when it was just a pretty neutral response.

You realize you were chatting with the Dev right?
He was giving his reasons and explanation for how it got to that point. Including the research he did.
I don't think he knows nothing about it.

What do you want me to say? Searching for informations its not his thing? But I disagree, we wouldnt have this conversation if he did.

Dev dont comprehend what actually means having FBI involvement. Thats a point of "pack your bags while you still can, things just changed to scary sh*t level". Instead, he create in his own ignorance government agency, corrupted like another local P.D. where some wannabe macho can say sh"t to federal agent,and another corrupted agent can shoot down whole operation like some local police chief. Thats not going to fly so no, Im quite sure he knows nothing about FBI.

Lets stop here, there is no point for this to go on and on.

Bro i dont even really disagree but youre overthinking imo.

This isnt some hyper accurate realistic story meant to reflect reality. Its more like a fun action movie with romance, the whole story is designed in a way to potray the mc as white-knighty as possible :ROFLMAO:

Plots are constructed (in sometimes convuluted) ways to make the mc's armor extra shiny and blight. Youre talking about fbi details while there is a complete nonsensical big plot about the police detective abducting emma in the most stupid way possible for barely any reason while completly and unnecessarily exposing himself and killing a celeb for no reason while doing so.

This is a story about a guy who saves the day, and everything is designed in a way to make that possible. All the villains are one dimensional and completly unrealistic evil moustache twirling bad guys without even a single positive trait.

This is more like a bond movie (just that this bond isnt a womanizer and not really charming lmao) than true crime. You have to take it for what it is and enjoy it like that or just dont play it.

Hillside's story is 110% unrealistic in all its aspects.

I pointed out how nonsensical the depiction of the fashion industry was a while ago. You might guess how people reacted.

They should consider Hillside as what it really is: a fairy tale.

Why do yall want a porn game to match with the real world soo bad? It is a "game" and every game is based on a "imaginary story" & a "fairy tail". What is this obsession with a game that must depict everything accurately that happens in the real world?

that's actually something I like about Hillside. At least to me it seems clear enough it does things just to move the story forward even if it wouldn't make sense in the real world. To me it does it in away that isn't to far fetched but not super realistic either yet works for the world of "Hillside". I find Hillside has a perfectly middle ground between realism and not. Instead of doing things that are completely out of left field that really don't make any sense or feels random like other games , ive played. Well except for villains that's the only area Hillside falls short for me as it feels they are just there as a plot device but no real depth or character to them.

You know, I just pointed out that the story is unrealistic and we shouldn't "judge" it using "realism" as "a measure".

Anyway, I had quite a few WTF moments while reading it.

You are absolutly right but you have to look at big picture here. We are past behind a point of how relevant it is to be realistic and more between how I found this story and plot stupid and dev trying to prove me wrong of how accurate it is based on real FBI.
Its like you know exactly how engine works and someone is trying to prove you wrong beacuse thats his idea of how it should. On real facts ofc. Well similar but close enough.
I just wanted to pinpoint why its unbelivable for me and share my thoughts. Not my fault they did full "you have to like to speak" on me.

Many of you missing the most important detail. Story doesnt need to be realistic to be believable. You just have to establish ground rules, shape and form and hold on to them without bending them where it is convenient or easiest way. Its just shows lack of imagination or no willingnes for pursuit different approach. When you create story based on real world, stick to it rules. When you create governemt agency based on real one keep it as real as it is, make an effort to know how to do it right. It wont be believable otherwise. You can add Dumbo, The Elephant flying all over. When you establish ground rules of why and how it wont be realistic but it will be believable.

Hi guys! I wonder if anyone here, except for a few people, cares about the exact match of every detail in this game to reality? Does this make this game any less for you, does it ruin your immersion in the game?

This isn't the first thread I've seen where strange people come to complain about some of the details of an adult visual novel not being true to reality. God knows why do they need it, but it is what it is.

Let's say the author shows a court scene. A professional lawyer will definitely tell you that this and that could not have happened in a real court, that the prosecutor would never have said such a phrase, and the judge would never have answered him like that. But what is more important for you, as a story readers: that the scene evokes strong emotions, makes you feel for the characters, or that it accurately depicts a real trial with all the endless details and procedures that are inherent in this field.

Or damn hackers. I always laugh when I bother to think about how their portrayal in movies, games or AVN reflects reality.
A nerdy dude sits near a shiny desktop with lines of text running across multiple screens. "Let’s hack this bitch," he says and... starts tapping on the keyboard non-stop. He emits incomprehensible muttering, from which only individual words and phrases like "router", "firewall", "symmetric key encryption" and other magical spells can be heard. The closer he is to the target, the faster he presses the buttons. The tension builds and finally the climax! "Yeah, bitch, I penetrated your firewall, entered your soft and warm DMZ and filled your system with my juicy payload!"

What a pile of bullshit! But the viewer/reader/player came to have fun and got a spectacular scene, what's wrong with that? Both, the audience understand that this is a show, and the author understands that they are making an entertaining show, and not a documentary. If the audience wanted to know what hacking is, they probably should have started by reading, I don’t know, Mitnick’s books? Although, of course, this is also mostly entertainment literature, but at least it is written with knowledge of the matter and from the experience.

So, are you guys really concerned about Agent Fox's position in the US federal chain of command? Or is it more important to you that she's on the MC's side, fearlessly standing with him and Charlie against the corrupt bastards, and that she's hot as hell?

Yeah, and one more question has been bothering me for a long time. After all, Mia Wallace was supposed to die from cardiac tamponade after Vincent Vega jabbed a syringe into her heart as hard as he could, right?
