I really don’t get the constant need to shit on this game. I suppose coverage is coverage, but man...

I don’t think they’re comparable. Cyberpunk’s problems are at fundamental levels, deep in the code and the game’s overall design, whereas pretty much every problem with Valhalla is stuff that can be written off as “well QA would probably had caught this if it wasn’t for a global pandemic”.

Lol, there is rumored Lucas cut? Really? I had not heard that one. That is hilarious. After how much shit Lucas get everytime he rerelease the OT with some alterations (From Han Shot First to Noooooo!!!! to Maklunkey), people now think that he’s gonna swoop in like a savior? Bwahahahaha!!!

LotR is epic in scope and deserved it’s runtime. The extended editions and Endgame are meandering, bloated, and in need of an editor. Just because 2 hours is the norm doesn't mean it has to be. Most 2 hour movies would be much better as 90-105 minute movies.

When you know things look bad for the future. Wait to be fired, 2 month of salary is still 2 month of salary, especially during this pandemic

Yeah, no one gives a fuck. This isn’t your fucking therapy session.

I’m begging any game studio to make Legally Distinct Wizard School Game, a Saints Row to Hogwarts Legacy’s GTA.

It’s weird to me how people talk about Filoni’s series as a replacement, given it explicitly follows up on threads like Ventress and Grievous without rehashing their (excellent) introductions. Filoni’s CW started before the EU cull, let’s not forget.

counterpoint: using the AC companion app in Black Flag (and I feel like they had one for Brotherhood?) was a fun way to “play” when you were at work - you could manage and send out your fleets or whatever, then you would have all the rewards waiting for you when you got back to the game

Maybe?...

Because it’s not a “Blatant Zelda ripoff”. I’m deep into it by now and I really, really like this game. More than I thought I would. It plays like a blend between Assassin’s Creed (Ubisoft open world baseline), Breath of the Wild (some of the mechanics), and Mario Odyssey (puzzles, puzzles everywhere). And that’s…

Frankly astonished by some of the responses here dismissing this as stuff they “already knew” or that it’s unnecessary. How brainwashed are you that your first response to a report about CDPR treating their people like shit is “eh, I already knew that”? How can it be anything but good that these assholes are getting…

That would not happen that way, seriously. If you Google “New Xbox”, you get a big old link for “The All New Xbox Series X”. Lots of people inventing an imaginary problem that doesn’t actually exist, as if people are literally too stupid to buy something they’re ready to spend money on.

There isn’t a single fucking nit you can’t fucking pick over any fucking thing associated with Microsoft. But fucking Sony can fuck everybody over with their fucking exclusivity carve-outs, fucking intimidation tactics over negative reviews of their fucking 1st party titles, and general flashing of fuck-you money…

I wish it was better, but I don’t see anyone accidentally buying the wrong console.

Cyberpunk 2077 is not a next-gen game. It was not marketed as a next-gen game, it has not received next-gen enhancements, and they were clear on the investor calls that it wasn’t a launch title for XSX / PS5.

I’m assuming his lawyers have advised him not to say anything specific on pain of getting sued.

Except it doesn’t say that. It speculates it, but all it’s really definitively saying is that Duracell has a deal with Microsoft to supply pack-in batteries with their devices. Nowhere has it in any way demonstrated that part of the deal compels Microsoft to design devices that require pack-in batteries. Microsoft,…

Why didn’t you just buy a couple of rechargeable batteries and a charger? They aren’t very much.

Yep, as others have said, 100% on board with this.
