Cyberpunk 2077

Was looking at the 50% off deal for the PS5 version, since I only have a 1080gtx and most new games run better on the PS5 (not upgrading until the 40x series).

168GB minimum. What?

The Playstation version is just bizarre. It's 30-40GB larger than either PC or Series X to begin with, and PS5 games always take up vastly more space during installation than they end up using when it's all done because of Sony's retarded system. So that 168GB is just required for temp file storage and when it's completed it will be something like 102GB.

I found a Xbox code on Eneba for $25 when I decided to double dip after they added cloud saves across all platforms. Wouldn't normally care about the $5 difference in the sale price but it irritates the hell out of me that CDPR is apparently making reparations to Sony because of the state of the game at release and the game is $50 on PS vs. $60 on Xbox.

My shotgun plan is coming to an abrupt end now that there are enemy snipers in most fights.

I've got max body and a mountain of armor and they all just oneshot me - getting pretty old having to just kamikaze at them in every single fight and hope there's enough cover to not die on the way.

It was Witcher in CP world though. I wish the driving hadn't been just as bad as the horse riding in Witcher 3--and that should have been one of the first things they fixed, yet it doesn't seem to have been touched since release--but I was very glad when it turned out to not be GTA 2077 at all. I hope they don't ruin the game with whatever they're trying to do in 1.7 to appease the people who've been bitching about it not being GTA-like since release.

I think I watched that video a while ago. If you go to the clothing store in the rich part of town and trigger that event where the super cops show up, one of the cops is the lady from the teaser trailer and she tries to recruit you

It's comforting to know I'll have at least one game to play in the retirement home.

I dunno how easy it is to convert Red Engine geometry to Unreal, but given how you don't touch large chunks of the map (Prison, Spaceport, NW Arasaka HQ after the heist, everything but the coast of Pacifica, Power Plant, Medical Center, majority of mega-apartments, etc.), I am perfectly fine with a mostly similar city with playable all of the above and more interiors that comes out before 2030.

Maybe its just my Shadowrun roots, but I would prefer more corporation on corporation missions, and with more branching - eg
Allfoods wants data from a Biotechnica site, do you release radioactive material on their peon dock workers or take on their security forces straight up.
If you go heavy collateral damage, does Blue Eyes deem you too much of a wildcard later and you have to take out the solo assigned your gig that you would have been assigned otherwise.
Or conversely, if you go pacifist (why is all the lethal / non-lethal code in there anyway) will Kang Tao not hire you to clean out a Maelstrom base and you have to do some other mission to get routed there. Etc.

Like it or not - I think theyre going to try and get, at the bare minimum, an online co-op with this next iteration. More likely that they'll do a GAAS with it and we'll have some mix of Division or GTA.

Yep thats it, no more patching the game, leave that to the modders.

On to the next big game, annnd we promised this next game will change the industry and society forever.

Chris Roberts meanwhile is laughing all the way to the bank.
