  What’s especially funny is that he didn’t even script that, he just came up with it on the spot. And now it’s the joke he’s most known for.

  Trade in their PCs to who? Fucking Aquaman?

  When we watched this as kids, my sister and I liked to joke about how the witch did him a favor.

  I’m playing both sides, so that I always come out on top.

  Also, Concord is so old that they don’t even sell it anymore…

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cyberpunk 2077 released in December 2020. Almost 4 years later, what is your opinion on it?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I played it when it first came out. It was fairly buggy and unoptimized and shouldn’t have been released like that, but there wasn’t anything too game breaking for me. And underneath that was a game with great writing, fun gameplay, and a very memorable world.

  I played it again when Phantom Liberty came out, and it was even better. It ran smoother, the bugs were gone, the overhauled systems better served the gameplay, and PL itself was an amazing addition. And I actually had an RTX card to take advantage of this time.

  Cyberpunk’s only real problem, for me, was it being pushed out before it was ready. I hope that the shift from REDengine to Unreal helps to at least mitigate the issues that caused that going forward.

  Tell that to Subway

  but I thought that might 1) contain too many spoilers (though I doubt there’s many people that haven’t played it)

  I actually appreciate that. I only finished New Vegas for the first time last week, just before Echoes of Wisdom came out. Was worried you’d finish before me and I’d end up seeing something spoilery.

  At least Microsoft hasn’t announced a marginally improved $700 pro console that doesn’t even come with the disk drive.

  Yet.
