I have little doubt that it will be a fantastic game, and even less doubt that modders will take it to another level. The biggest travesty so far still seems to be the lack of space archery. Especially with the modular weapons I feel a high tech compound bow would've been such a cool addition.
I didn't even bother buying it. The trailers looked so bad and then you'd have to wait for a Steam release. No thanks. When the first gameplay videos dropped it looked like absolute trash and really just rehashed all the repetitive content from the previous games, which was plentifully criticized to be a huge weakpoint of them already, with a lame story, idiotic characters and a boring map on top of it. It was just a rehash of all the bad, but I guess that's all they could pull off.
It's also a buggy piece of crap...
Update notification? Sweet! Gotta click it, right? Oh, some obscure error message that doesn't let me update the apps. I guess I start the app itself then, right? Oh, it immediately crashed with an even more obscure error message. And what's this? It shows me updates for apps that I have already removed. I wonder why? Maybe I should clean the cache and update the repositories. Huh? Oh, the update is stuck somewhere and doesn't move forward anymore and now I can't even search for anything.
Current AI bots don't feel all that much better if I'm going to be super honest. Yes they're more advanced, certainly more complex, but they often fail to the same faults as the old cleverbot era ones. It feels more like they got better at mimicking being more clever, but actually aren't. If that makes any sense.
There's also the fact that cotton does not shed microplastics. Afaik textiles & car tires are part of the biggest contributors globally.
For clothes in general, I try to buy from proper brands now though. All those cheap brands might be a cheaper purchase, but in my experience they fall apart so quickly and are often also cut weirdly which does not make them fit well, that you always end up buying more than when you could've just gotten a better quality product (not talking about overpriced stuff where you pay premium for the brand name alone).
Hell no. I find phone texting way worse, even when swiping. I honestly don't know how slow you're typing that you find this faster. 2 finger technique while looking at the keys?
