Haha ok so you’re just one of those people whose understanding of the universe isn’t capable of expanding beyond “this good, that bad”.
I haven’t defended anyone and never intended to. I’m just saying get your comparisons straight. “Hey this game has a bunch of annoying bugs” =/= “Yo this shit is effectively non-functional and empty”.

I’m not downplaying anything, but comparing a dumpster to a dumpster fire and saying they are the same thing is, at best, a little misleading.
The release of Witcher 3 was bad, but it was industry standard bad. Cyberpunk shipped straight up broken and incomplete. It has been fundamentally reworked at least twice since launch.
I don’t think anyone is apologizing for The Witcher 3 at launch, but let’s not pretend they are the same thing. There are more shades than black and white.

CP2077 was far worse, but that doesn’t mean the Witcher 3 was okay, it was still absolutely botched.
This is literally a rewording of what I just said.

I’m not so sure we’re talking about the same scale of horrendous here.

I don’t need another hole in my phone that does nothing but collect debris.

I live in DFW and just drove home from work and holy shit the forecast has done nothing to slow down the flood of pilgrims. There is an insane amount of traffic on the roads already.

Enjoy. One of the best games ever made.

I’m sure I’m going to get some shit for this, but here we go! I own a wyzecam that I keep in (but due to lack of necessity will soon be removing from) my daughter’s room. We had it there just to check and see if she was asleep in her crib still without walking up the very creaky stairs/hall to her room.
It has pretty garbage resolution, has no sensitive information in frame, is not in a part of the house that anything can be overheard, and literally just shows a blurry image of our daughter’s bed.
I guess someone could theoretically sign in and…watch a 3 year old sleep? The worst case scenario I can imagine is someone using the speaker function to scare my kid, which would suck, but I think I can risk it.

Also, if we’re being frank, DDG’s results are damn near useless half the time.

I think you were being sarcastic with that last line and nobody caught it. Sorry mate.

Dark reader is amazing but I have seen a noticeable impact on page load times from time to time.

Yep, and you totally wouldn’t put any upgrades in your $850 PC over the course of that 5 years.

You can’t, but getting in an argument with the master race nuts is a fool’s errand.

Why the fuck would anyone uninstall their ad blocker just because one site demands it? Whitelists exist for a reason.

I’m having trouble remembering this one.
- Comment on Just some fun size comparisons 6 months ago:
I always forget just how large the defiant is. I feel like there is rarely anything close enough in the camera shots to get a good idea of scale. Other than DS9 I mean.

Woof, no thank you. WOW consumed so much of my time back in those days. I can still look back on it all with fondness. The couple of times I have peeked behind the curtain since then have only made me sad.

As much as I would love for this to be a hit, my skepticism is through the roof.

3.5 demiliches were terrifying, even in a system that included stat blocks for gods.
- Comment on Looking for games with strong female leads for my daughter (even just to watch as I play). Came across this link, but they're a bit old. Any suggestions from the community? 9 months ago:
It’s an older game but Beyond Good and Evil is a classic.
