Why does it need to be a dedicated park? They’re not proposing getting rid of all the green stuff. Even better than having green stuff some distance away is living in the middle of the green stuff.

And your whole argument against Cyberpunk is based on a single annoyance.

No, it’s not. I only brought up a single annoyance because it’s the most glaring example. You could have asked me for more arguments, but you didn’t.

But based on how you approach discussions, I have no interest in talking to you any further. Good day.

You didn’t ask for games that feel more alive than Cyberpunk, you asked for games that allow you to redecorate your apartment. You trying to re-interpret those as “so you’re claiming they feel more alive than Cyberpunk, huh?” is bad faith, bordering on trolling.

And please, stop acting like a voice line is too much to ask. That’s ridiculous. I don’t need to show you a “perfect game” to have a valid claim that some parts of Cyberpunk feel dead.

No, I’m not trying to tell you that. I thought I was pretty explicit?

You keep taking small parts of what I’m saying, and misconstrue them to be completely different arguments. Why don’t you just listen to my actual words?

Thanks for the recommendation, I’ll give it a try!

Sadly not, I’d also be interested in one!

I very much dislike Mozilla’s direction over the last decade. They’re introducing user-hostile features that subtly break normal browsing experience, even when disabled[0]. Not like Google is better, but I’m also trying to get away from Mozilla.

[0] On Firefox Mobile, there’s a “feature” which makes the address bar auto-complete domains of companies paying Mozilla. I noticed this with Netflix - I never visit, but when I start writing a URL with n, roughly every 10th time Netflix was suggested. You can disable this feature, but this doesn’t actually disable it. The address bar no longer auto-completes with Netflix, instead it just doesn’t autocomplete! So 9/10 times I can write n and press Enter, but 1/10 times I press n and search for the letter n.

Mozilla doesn’t care whether they break features, as long as they can make more money. I strongly dislike this approach by the supposedly “good” browser manufacturer.

It’s not petty to expect depth when depth is promised, but even shallow depth would have been enough. I’d have been happy with a voiceline by the clerk who sold me the apartment. I’d have expected an animation, but a voiceline would already make it feel alive. But there’s not even that! You press the button and own the new apartment, and that’s it.

That’s not “alive”, that’s deader than the average game from 2005.

Oh and by the way, can you point me to a single action rpg game that allows you to redecorate your place?

Fallout 4? Fallout 76? Starfield?

You might notice I didn’t say “Cyberpunk 2077 is shit because I can’t redecorate my apartment”, but it’s ridiculous to act like NO GAME EVER has allowed you to do that. Bethesda games have allowed you to do that, even though they are shit.

I don’t agree about the shallowness of the game.

Many mechanics have absolutely no depth to them. For example the apartments - no customization, not even a dialog line or animation from the clerk when you buy them.

They did put quite a bit of work into shards etc., but I’m not interested in those. I want the world to feel alive, like they promised, and it doesn’t.

Yeah. If you spray it on a hammer and hit someone’s head with it, it knocks them right out.

Better compression -> faster downloads

And that’s why scoped styles are a godsend!

Global styles were simply always a terrible idea.

Me too, very excited for the relaunch!

There’s also one massive miscalculation in there.

What if the “real god” prefers non-believers to believers in the wrong gods? What if he’s jealous, and only his believers and non-believers go to heaven, while all believers of wrong gods go to hell?

Yep. I especially noticed the pacing of action scenes - the first movie felt far more tense because every second seemed to matter. The second one said that it’s also tense, yet the characters can take ridiculously long pauses during the action for quips and so on.

You should make it out of feathers. Steel is heavier than feathers.

Oh boy, I sure can’t wait for Samakin to get back from his vacation in Germany

Yet PC players don’t have to pay for servers

I don’t think that’s what we’re talking about? As an example, if I ask an LLM for good spots to get Bratwurst and it recommends places in New York, it’s fairly useless to me as a European.

How so? For pretty much any application in the EU, EU-centric results are obviously much better?
