My playthrough of cyberpunk I found that they had these choices, but the effect was identical regardless of what you chose (except the very end of the base game, and the DLC) I enjoyed the game, but that was my biggest annoyance

Most dumb characters. Often I see them played they as intentionally disruptive, actively try to choose bad decisions, play stubborn and expect other players to force them into following any form of expected plot.

I've seen them played well, but when someone tells me they are playing a dumb character i usually find it more frustrating than fun and creative

Bit of context and spoilers - He was making a statement about social media threats/harassment

The first part - using social media - whoever people vote to be killed, gets killed. Trying to show these actions have consequences. The people voting feel immune to these consequences. They just voted, they didn't kill anybody.
He goes through 5 rounds of voting, with more votes every time. After each round, the most voted for is killed.

Up to this point he's exposing people trying to use social media to try and harm people Eventually he turns it around, and kills everyone who voted

The whole thing kicked off because his friend/romantic interest tried to commit suicide from cyber bullying. He's pushing that these actions have consequences, even if you hide behind a screen.

The killer himself is a psycho, so the morals aren't exactly impactful to him. As for anyone else questioning, the definitely do.

Disclaimer - been a while since I watched the episode. It's pretty good, definitely need some suspension of disbelief (but that's most episodes)

+1 for Enderal. I liked it enough that I bought the writers standalone book. My friend and I played it at the same time. We both got the Enderal hangover and couldn't start a story based game for weeks

Pathfinder (1st edition) was basically a cleaned up/ refined version of DND 3.5 Current versions of each system differ quite a bit more

DND 5e is much more user friendly and approachable system. Easier to learn and jump right in.

Pathfinder 2e is more complex, bit tougher to learn, but comes with a lot more options and flexibility.

Both give you similar experiences of playing DND, but the mechanics are different
