Something I thought would have made a fun and interesting sequel would not involve Jimmy at all. Set it in the same school but in the late 1950s/early 1960s and make it about a new girl who decides to climb to top of the popularity heap one crushed clique at a time. And she doesn't do it because she or some other girl was wronged. No, she just does it because she can. She does it anyway she can: manipulation, blackmail, threats, violence, whatever it takes. Meanwhile, all the adults think she's sweetness and light except maybe one teacher who has decided to take you down.

Something like Mean Girls meets Election

Well, I am interested in that but it shouldn't be a Bully game because I think people playing a Bully sequel want to give wedgies and shoot people with slingshots.
But I do think that female social warfare would work, especially as a visual novel. Isn't there some faggy anime game about being a serial killer in an anime school? Like that but without the murder silliness. RPG as social puzzle (figure out right sequence of things to say and do to outwit your enemy). I had the idea of there being a Bully-like that would have two characters, brother and sister, so the brother could do the fistfight behind the lockers be there or be square and the sister could do that nonsense.

The fuck you on about nigga, Columbine was in 99 and Bully in 06.
I was thinking the same thing.

I believe people won't really care if Bully 2 would release now, Rockstar knows that controversy sells. They don't do it cause they don't have to.

They are taking millions of dollars a month with the last games sells and online subscription.

I doubt they will make bully two... And if they do they'll do like a Hogwarts Legacy type of game and that game ride the controversy wave that came from the troons and brand recognition.

Anybody memba a flash game about cheating, that was basically a stealth game where you had to stay outside of the teacher's cone of sight while each level piled on more and more mechanics and challenges? And those old parking simulator flash games?

Boom, there you go, Driver's Ed and Pass the Test minigames.

Bully Scholarship Edition happens to be my favorite Rockstar game but with how RDR2 felt and with the potential mess that GTA6 can turn into I don’t have that much faith in them. They would just make the story dull with a lot of nonsense sprinkled throughout. Oh let’s not forget Bully Online where you can roam around a small map day one with the need to buy tickets for cosmetics. In my opinion, Bully 2 needs to take place at Bullsworth with a female protagonist. If the game had been released or been in development before GTA5 or just a little bit after GTA5 then it would’ve had a chance. Now, I don’t know.

What if one of the game mechanics was a reputation meter. Some guy gives you a hard time. You could go for the wedgies and slingshot and it dings your reputation. You can flirt with the captain of the football team and manipulate him into kicking the crap out of that guy. Your reputation meter isn't dinged at all. Maybe add in stealth. If you can pull off the wedgie and slingshot without being seen, your reputation doesn't get dinged. Metal Gear: Bullworth style.

But I like the brother/sister approach. Kind of like GTA5 and being able to switch between the three guys.
 
It's very sad.. but i think it's gonna be the same as Postal 4.. losing all of the edgy-ness that made the OG so great. if some indie dev studio doesn't do it, AAA studios especially don't dare to go against the woke.

I was wondering what happened to the guy who played Jimmy. I hope that he is doing well.

Hasn't done anything since '06 in gaming but
he's also got an IMDB

Claims he not only voiced but did mocap work in the game. He's still doing stuff infrequently but I'm not sure he's been a VA in a while. At least not a traditional one. Hadn't heard of it before but if it's the same term as on IMDB, he's essentially an extra in productions that require background noise. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/b...ood-loop-groups-background-actors-1235013426/

I mean all things considered, he is a good actor. I wish he'd gotten more VA work

Manhunt was amazing, mostly because of the story of the game. There had never been a game about making some rich guy's snuff film before. But it was one of those games that said all it needed to say and didn't need to have a sequel or be a franchise.

Another game like that Rockstar put out was State of Emergency. It was alright for what it was, but what really sold it for me was that I was working at the mall when it came out and I loved putting in the cheat codes for unlimited ammo and unlimited health and just running around the mall shooting customers. It was cathartic for me and I'm sure anyone who ever worked in retail would have felt the same way I did mowing down hundred of customers. But it wasn't a great game because so many of the levels were repetitive, there were only five or six maps, the game play wasn't the best. It had a sequel, but it wasn't really deserving of it or a franchise.

Games are a product of when they're made and the Rockstar stuff had a lot of cheeky humor, irreverent material, social commentary, and made the likes of Jack Thompson seethe with impotent rage. (Yes, that was definitely intended.) But even if Rockstar decided to make Bully 2, it wouldn't be nearly as much fun as the original simply because they have decided to get rid of those biting remarks and humor lest they be targeted by the woke crowd. We saw it last year when they said they were taking some background item of a tranny action figure out of the PS5 version of GTA5 because the troons on Twitter complained. The Rockstar of old would have just laughed at them, but the new kinder, gentler Rockstar wouldn't dare.

How does a game like that gets released in contemporary America without any outrage or attention yet Bully had months of controversy?

Not saying anything new but Bully 2 won't be coming and I don't want it to. With what I hear with GTA 6 they're toning the game down like they've need doing with GTA V and idk why people would even want a game like Bully to come out in today's social climate. I'd love to see them go against the grain and modernize it so they can take the piss but reality is that won't be happening.
