FYI, I literally just typed your exact question into Google and that was the first response.

Serious question: do you or anyone you know use cloud gaming ever? I feel like people keep trying to push it and it inevitably fails because it's a product NOBODY is asking for!

Nope. No loaner on my 6 digit car. They might have been motivated to get it repaired if it actually effected them.

My Tesla has been in the shop since November (!!!!!!) because Tesla isn't making enough repair parts. I love my Tesla, but nobody should be going anywhere near them until they get their supply chain shit together.

Oh no! What will I do without EA games?

Oh wait, the same thing I'm currently doing. Not even playing them when they're free on Gamepass.

This is the one that immediately popped into my mind. "Alone in the Dark" is the game that made me realize I don't ever want to play another horror game again! :-D

Because there were so many Baby Boomers alive during the Great Depression...

This is the funnies thing I've read all week. Thanks!

"Slightly less dogshit"? Have you played 2.0 yet? Have you even played 1.6? Doesn't sound like it. They put in a ton of fixes an QoL in the last two years and this latest patch is just one more FREE update. They didn't "fix some of the issues years later". They fixed most of the issues over the last two years and now are providing optional new content. The redemption is that after fixing all that, the new content is apparently free from the issues that plagued the original launch.

And it's VERY clear from the way you're talking that nothing they do could redeem them in your eyes. I'm pretty sure they didn't shit in your breakfast cereal so you can stop acting like they did. It was one bad launch, not a pattern of bad games or anything like that. And they worked hard to remedy the issue. Just because you want MORE free stuff than the content they've added in the last two years, doesn't make them a bad company. Kinda makes you sound bad tho...

Generally speaking, because Republicans are a minority, the more people that show up to vote, the worse it is for Republicans. That's why they work so hard to suppress voters. Anything that gets more people to vote is good for Dems even if you're not asking people how they're going to vote.

I mean, musicians evolve as they age too. I'm in my 40's and don't much care for her earlier stuff. But the album "Lover" is really good and I quite enjoy her two chill covid-era albums. Maybe give some of that stuff a listen and see why so many people enjoy her stuff.

Not to mention Fingers had the best Sandevistan and leg mods in the game and not punching him is SO HARD! Now neither of those mods are in the game anymore and you can safely beat the crap out of Fingers with no regrets.

This is an "expansion" not a "DLC" according to CDPR. It's a lot bigger than your normal DLC. Up to you if you think that's enough.

I think it's also a chance for them to try to find some redemption. Journalists have a lot to sink their teeth into with the whole meta story of the game so I think that might have added some encouragement.

"Hot Saucerman" is my favorite of the many. Solid reference!

Yeah and the new reworked Berserker cyberware to go with it! Gorilla Arms with the new relic perks to make them explode people from punching too hard... tempting indeed!

Yeah the crafting change is huge. It frees up a lot of points from "mandatory" crafting so you can really branch out more. Builds should be a lot more interesting and hard to screw up now.

The big change with cyberware that I like is 1 - You don't have to go to every ripperdoc (or some online wiki) to find the bits you need anymore. Every ripperdoc sells everything. and 2 - You can upgrade it as you level so you don't have to worry about "wasting money" buying low tier stuff early that you'll have to replace later.

That's correct. v2.0 is included with the base game and comes out tomorrow (Sept 21). The expansion comes out 5 days later on Tuesday.

There are tons of changes with 2.0 that make it worth revisiting even if you don't get PL.

The reviews so far have been fairly positive. I'm pretty eager to jump in to 2.0 tomorrow. I'll have 5 days to get my new character ready for PL!

I just finished a playthrough a couple weeks ago with a Sandevistan+Katana build, which was SUPER fun! I was planning on going Stealth Netrunner for this play through but after seeing all the changes to the existing systems, I am tempted to go Sandy+Sword again. But I will probably control my urges and focus on Stealth to complement the "spy thriller" story of PL.

Modding maybe, but that doesn't help console players. An eat button and HDR settings are so hilariously inadequate that I think the people excited for those changes already like the game and don't see the actual issues.

Looking forward to CP2077 so I can stop trying to have fun in Starfield. That game just is not doing it for me, as much as I try.
