Why does this picture look so warped?
The lambo has a widebody kit on it. Makes it as wide as an F150 but only like 42" tall.
Generally, people will widebody a street car for the aesthetic. They are imitating the production race cars that use wider tires to increase traction; wide enough tires don’t fit under the stock bodywork, so the fenders come out further to cover the wider tires for aerodynamic purposes.
The Lamborghini Huracan GT3(production car pulled off the line to be made into a race car) is about 80 inches wide, compared to ~76" for the stock Huracan. For comparison, a Prius comes in at a nice ~69" and the F150 is currently ~80".
I’m not sure I’ve ever seen nor heard of a game where this situation could even apply…
it would have to be a fairly atypical sort of game I imagine, most games with a premade tutorial world are not going to have anything too extreme in that world to find, unless its some sort of hidden easter egg. I could see it if its a game that uses procedural generation, but those kinds of games usually dont have much of a tutorial beyond maybe some short instructions.
I guess it could kinda apply in a very mild sort of way in GTAOnline, if you happen to be at the point in the very beginning where youre getting your first car and get free insurance on it, and happen to find one of the pre-customized npc cars that spawn rarely and are still cheap enough to keep after stealing, but those arent really all that rare or special.
Forza Horizon 5. The game literally throws hypercars at you within the first few minutes. It’s fun, although many people complain that it ruins the sense of progression (nevertheless the game has hundreds of cars, unlocking them all would take forever).
My third or so wheel spin got me the Lambo Forza Edition that comes with some massive XP boost for when driving around
Even though I liked driving my other cars around the fact that they couldn’t go half as fast or earn the XP nearly as quickly made me use almost exclusively that for the open world bits. Felt too wrong not to unless I was specifically going off road or something
Usually I have come across this with poorly done DLCs. They offer some bonus item in game.
So if you buy the game with all the DLC in a sale then when you start the game you have all this extra stuff you wouldn’t normally have. I can’t recall the game but there was one game where I actively had to not use the DLC items otherwise the first part of the was way too easy and bordering on boring.
The Witcher 2, though it’s more of an exploit.
If you get the sword from the Lady of the Lake in the previous game, you start the prologue of TW2 with two silver swords, one being the Lady of the Lake sword. Unequip the Lady of the Lake sword so you don’t lose it to the dragon.
You now have a mid-tier silver sword that is good for half the game. You also don’t need to find a new silver sword at the start of the game.
Bit of an obscure one, but Fire Emblem Gaiden.
There is a miniscule (0.014%) chance for the very first enemies in the game to drop an extremely powerful item that normally isn’t available until much later. Getting it early is absolutely wild because one of its effects is doubling stat gains when leveling up, which can quickly snowball your characters into godhood.
If I had a Lambo, I would sign up as a Deliveroo driver for sure!
I worked at a pizza place in highschool and one of our delivery drivers was an elderly guy who drove your typical delivery driver beat up old Honda Civic type car. He was a super nice guy, but never talked much about himself. Then one day he shows up to work in a Maserati because apparently his Civic wouldn’t start. Turns out he was a crew member with freaking Jacques Cousteau and was very wealthy. He just delivered pizza for something to do and because he liked meeting new people.
He eventually sold the Maserati to one of my coworkers for a couple of thousand of dollars because it needed a new fuel pump and he didn’t feel like dealing with it. Yet, he kept that sun bleached Civic for as long as I worked there.
No probably about it, the new car somehow already had a broken fuel pump 😂
I went to graduate school with a guy who turned out to be from a super-wealthy family but we never suspected because he drove an honest-to-god fucking Yugo. I rode in it once and pulled the window crank off the door before he had a chance to stop me. He drove the Yugo because he wanted to fit in with us poors - we should have suspected something was up because not even the poorest of the poor graduate students drove Yugos. He finally blew his cover when the Yugo died and he had to come to school in his other car, a brand-new Range Rover.
Seems like you’d burn more gas than you’d earn working this job, never mind the insurance alone lol
Also the risk of parking that car in all the shady areas that delivery drivers have to go
Yeah that’s what I was thinking about, unless he’s in a really nice area exclusively with no bad neighborhoods in the delivery radius. He’s probably got a gun on him too, many pizza drivers do who drive less fancy shit than that, so at least there’s that too.
Also, his Corolla is probably just off screen and he delivered to a customer who owns this car (or some similar situation) and the guy who owns the car said “sure just don’t scratch my shit” just for the lolz, but it’s fun to imagine.
Could be one of these rich kids that get forced by their parents to work a job in a desperate attempt to prevent them from becoming spoiled.
I had to take an Uber back to my car after a bicycle breakdown a few weeks ago. The guy picked me up in a white Mercedes Benz with white leather interior, and he didn’t even care that I got chain grease all over his back seat. He was chatting about how he was going to retire once his savings hit $5 million. He was either clinically insane or I really don’t understand the economics of Uber whatsoever.
