Steam does that, but the PC exclusive world is so far from my bubble that I don’t really notice it. I pretty much buy all my games to own anyway. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It'd be reallly shitty if they forced to subscribe instead just letting you buy the game outright. Disney (not that anyone would want to with 99 percent of the stuff they put out now) recently starting releasing things on Blue Ray again, so maybe the failure of Disney Plus will be a warning.

Yeah, if Andor was available on blu-ray, I’d buy it for my collection and then happily never give Disney another penny. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 I really liked Andor, but I spend enough money on shit like "Beast of 20,000 Fathoms, 100 Anniversay Edition" or the 10,000 version of "The Wolfman" so maybe not even that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBossBalrog Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 Hideo's usually a westa-boo fanboy, so it was great to see his choices and tastes when it comes to his country's own cinema Something also funny; people usually (to be polite) grab 3-4 movies (criterion lets them keep them), Hideo took like fucking nine 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celan Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 I swore off anything on YouTube related to Cyberpunk, because so many reviews were dishonestly shitty. However this seems like a fairly balanced review of Phantom Liberty. The reviewer likes it and thinks the changes in 2.0 are positive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Good Doctor Posted September 20, 2023 Author Share Posted September 20, 2023 I’m excited for it. Have been holding back on spending some of my skill points in Cyberpunk so I can immediately invest in the new Relic skills as soon as they drop. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not very far so I don’t mind. Will probably start over on my Corpo since that save is only a couple hours in, but I’ve still got a lot of game to complete even without the DLC. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll warn you, CDPR is recommending clean install and new game for the 2.0 update. I see Balrog ninja'ed me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll do a clean reinstall after the update lunches, but they said an existing save file will still work, so I’m gonna keep my main Nomad. I think their recommendation to start a new game is just so returning players can experience the entire game in its updated form, rather than just running around the endgame with it. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Celan Posted September 20, 2023 Share Posted September 20, 2023 One thing I liked hearing is that there are two tracks through the expansion that give you different missions. I'm assuming one is with Movie Boyfriend as quest giver and the other is with that conniving bitch So Mi as quest giver. So there's some replayability there. @The Good Doctor I think I mentioned this before, but among the gigs you have to do, don't miss the Sinnerman quest line. It's a doozy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The scene where Arnie stumbles into a secret Santa club and has a full-on brawl with dozens of Santas, including a giant Santa and a midget Santa, is some of the funniest slapstick I’ve watched. It’s so insane compared to everything else that’s happened up to that point. 1 * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good armor though but of course in normal video game fashion I found something leagues better like 5 minutes later. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Good Doctor Posted September 20, 2023 Author Share Posted September 20, 2023 Here’s a Starfield question. Are weapon/armor stats static, or are they based on level and rarity? Like, an iron sword in Skyrim is always an iron sword. If you want something better, you need to find a different kind of sword, like steel or ebony. There is no "level 12 purple/epic iron sword" that somehow has better stats than the visually identical "level 7 green/rare iron sword". Which I appreciate about Skyrim, and almost all Bethesda games, as I really dislike the whole "leveled/tiered weapons" system. * Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
