Or they stop trying to lock people in with exclusive games and instead attempt to actually compete by the quality of the service. I know it will never happen but I can dream.

Until a conservative sub can prove that it's banned all Nazi and fascist content and is fully separated itself from support of the current administration and its attempted coup I will continue to downvote on sight. I refuse to pretend as though there is a reasonable middle ground to be struck and I don't have to tolerate intolerance.

I see people make comments like this about shows, movies, etc. and I've never understood this line of thinking. I generally expect things to work the same as they do in real life unless it's explicitly explained otherwise. Not sure if I'm the odd man out in thinking that way or what.

Gonna be pretty shitty if Goff can't play due to a cheap hit that should have been called during the pick 6

Robot, experience this tragic irony for me.

I'm in the same boat you are. The only thing I haven't been able to pull off is modding and I don't blame Bazzite for that at all. I know it's technically possible, I just lack the necessary Linux skills to make it work.

These refs are just making up penalties like they have a quota on how many flags to throw today.

It's possible that I'm also hoping that the sequel won't take a decade to release if they're able to reuse most of Night City from the fist game.

Yeah, I know what it's based on, and I think you're probably right that most of the setting in the original tabletop game takes place in Night City, but I don't know if that means that CDPR will follow that lead or not you know? Obviously I hope they do but currently no one outside of that company has any idea what the plan is as far as I know so all I can do is hope.

 

Seriously, the city is so big and detailed that I feel like Cyberpunk 2077 only scratched the surface of it. Night City is the heart of Cyberpunk and moving to a whole new location would be a huge bummer to me.

Ideally it would take place maybe 10 years after 2077 and maybe another bomb went off or something and turned a big chunk of downtown into a wasteland and now Pacifica/Dogtown is the new hot area.

Supplement this by making part of the story take place on the moon and/or the Crystal Palace and allowing you to travel back and forth like in Witcher 3 and I think that will feel plenty fresh for a whole new game + a couple of expansions.

I love headlines where it's impossible to predict the next word at almost any point.

I find the plastic floss picks work really well because they are flatter than regular tooth picks. It has to be the type where the back part is a pick as that's the part that I use.

I recently installed it on my gaming PC with an Nvidia GPU and AMD CPU. It was my first time with Linux and I was partitioning a drive to dual boot windows in case I screwed the whole thing up and needed a fall back. I hit a few speed bumps mostly due to lack of experience and the dual booting (stupid secure boot!).

Beyond that my only issue so far has been an inability to get my VPN app running but since this is just a gaming PC that I don't use for anything else I've just gone without the VPN. The Nvidia GPU has not really caused any problems for me so far to be honest.

I've only tried two games so far, Cyberpunk so I could benchmark graphical performance against Windows, and Return to Moria because I wanted to test a cheap game that specifically says it's not Steamdeck compatible. Both tests have been successful as far as I'm concerned. I will mention that I'm pretty exclusively a solo gamer and I've heard that people have had issues with trying to play Return to Moria with friends.
