I mean, you mostly just repeated things without substantiating (i.e., addressing) them in the first place.

And the developers have claimed that is a game that is going to supposedly treat trans-genderism more seriously than their marketing team did and according to the author...does about fuck-all with that.

It’s the classic case where we’ve solved 80% of the problem....but that 80% is astronomically easy compared to the last 20%.

I like how someone described Andy and Cristin.

Maybe in the future, but I don’t see an immediate need to.

Jesus, two whole years?! Might as well make it truly console exclusive because who on Earth is going to wait that long to play it on Xbox?

A movie that, as ass as it is, still has things to say so (such as the negative effects of over-relying on the internet) because....guess what....it’s based off of William Gibson, who had things to say!!

And what is the game, exactly?

I mean, a trope is a trope, regardless if it comes from the originator or the works that it inspired.

In terms of aesthetics and inspiration...not really.

Alternatively,

“The world they built”...that is based off of the Cyberpunk genre, one that is teeming with social and political commentary that would fit into the “progressive” notion.

You cannot license a property like Cyberpunk (one teeming with social and political commentary through the works of William Gibson and others) and expect to get away with “Our game says nothing of value”.

Great, I was thinking of buying the Xbox Series X but the fact that it tastes like plastic and is uniform already makes me side with Sony.

I swear, Eva Green needs a better agent or something because her movie and TV choices have not been inspiring despite her being a clearly talented actress.

Another aspect (at least in the Gold ranks) is that the game and the meta change so what used to constitute master rank when the game was released....is now gold level.

Because video games are a weird combination of art and technical engineering, which makes it a very difficult balancing act to maintain.

But when companies do stall like that, they do it knowing that they have to spend millions of more dollars to compensate stores that now have to wait an additional 3 weeks for the inventory to come through.

“So I think it’s safe to say, we’ll let you know when pre-orders will happen. It’s not going to happen with a minute’s notice. We’re going to at some point let you know when you can pre-order a PlayStation 5 so please don’t feel like you have to go run and line up anywhere until you receive official notice on how that…
