I don't think the Witcher was very mod friendly. I doubt Cyberpunk will be any better.

They could implement an employment mechanic that requires you do jobs (quests) for your employer, like the polis, city sanitation board, that kind of thing. Fail or refuse enough jobs and you get the sack. You can get promotions and the like if you suceed.

Considering Rule #6 of the Game forum rules is No GamerGate this is probably the time to drop it.

Will this game have teledildonics, or is that part of the DLC?

The gameplay is fantastic. The level design is also fantastic (although suffering a bit in linearity in comparison to the original).

But there's almost nothing of it actually there. The prologue takes 5 minutes. The train station mission takes 5 minutes. The aug-city mission is the first proper mission. Fuss for a little bit in the hub. Swiss alps - second proper mission. Divali stronghold, third proper mission. Finale.

Yeah, I came to it late, but that teaser trailer actually kind of made me want to play a psycho squad member, too. And CDPR was surprised by the HUGE interest the fanbase showed for Trauma Team, too, to the point where they've said it "affected their plans" in some manner. Apparently, we will be getting some sizeable DLC packages for the game, so who knows?

So having completed my re-run, I was struck by how every mission area is literally about 3 rooms. It's not just the game as a whole that's tiny - every individual component is tiny as well.

Transmetroplitan is so good and so enjoyable to read but it’s honestly really hard to go back and not violently convulse at how basically everything in that book is like 100% happening right now.

Saw that the guy that did the 2012 dredd OST is doing music for cyberpunk. I don't remember if that was especially amazing music but it was a good movie and if they are cribbing poo poo out of it for cyberpunk I reckon thats a good thing. Plenty of relevant stuff in that movie.

Dredd's OST is great and perfect for Cyberpunk, fantastic news. My favorite tidbit about it is that the music for the Slo-Mo sequences was inspired by a Justin Bieber song slowed down 800%.

Every game is only a game, and that's all they can ever be.

I just finally started playing Mankind Divided a few days ago, and I've been really enjoying it, even if I can already see how they had to cut some things. It is what it is, and I'm enjoying what it has to offer.

I’m weird and the Witcher 2 was my favorite RPG for years until the third game; which just blew me away.

I never played a table top RPG so I don’t know anything about the Cyberpunk lore, but I’m sure this will be super awesome.

I heard they were going to have Dragon Age Origins style first acts based on your character. Is that true?

I really want a good single player game to get stoned to. I’ve been playing a lot of Apex and Destiny PvP and I want to just veg out to a good story with my potato rear end thumbs.

Eh, the easy way to manage an inventory in this game while staying true to the setting would be to have automated vendor drones you can call to pick up stuff to sell. End of mission, full inventory? Call a drone, drop the stuff you want to sell, wait 10 seconds for the drone to show up, then walk away. Think of the courier system from DOTA 2 - except you always have priority. Maybe incentivize players to visit shops by giving them slightly better prices for being in person (a pick up fee), and of course highlight anything important to the main story or side quests. Maybe you can only sell certain items at shops, and only buy in person (or buy certain items).

Hell, they could even automate it to a limited extent - are you working on a non-lethal playthrough? Set it to autosell all guns you pick up unless otherwise specified. Lethal playthrough? Autosell all guns that are noticeably worse than your current one, or that you have no skills for. There is no requirement to do this, but for people who like to collect every little thing (I'm thinking about the Fallout 4 style collectors) it would make sense.

Inventory management will never be perfect or make everyone happy, but in this case there are in-universe ways to improve the experience.

I don't think you play Doom like I play Doom, first of all you are talking about using a controller where as with OG doom you don't even get mouselook.

Zaphod has said it better than I can, but Doom combat is a high energy flow state. If it stops it's because you've died, then you jump in and try again. Nu-Doom is a softer thing with like, training wheels on it to make everyone feel badass with a cheap animation vs. getting that high yourself by flowing smoothly on your own skills.

Also, the game gives you loads of cool ways to kill people, then calls you an rear end in a top hat and gives you a bad ending for using them.

That's why I never got into the modern Deus Ex games. I don't like the feeling of the narrative punishing me for using the cool toys and abilities the game gave me.

Saints Row 2 did it and yeah it works. Just circumvent any issues entirely and give people maximum flexibility to be whoever they want.

Snowcrash was a book all my nerd friends recommended and so I read it and was like “how recently did you read this?” and they were all like “uh I dunno when I was a teenager, couple years ago...” and I was like “ok because it has some cool ideas but overall it is very, very, very dumb”

Eskel was still pretty miserable though, in a sadsack way. Lambert is just more of an rear end in a top hat prick.
