I dunno man. I would probably differentiate between a rape case and sort of systemic rape (and murder). Obviously there will be a soldier who will rape (and murder) someone at some point. But if most of them do it, and it's kind of even expected, or at least not prohibited by their superiors, then... you know... it's not really the same in my opinion.

Sadly I won't be able to finish it within my 2 weeks of 1€ gamepass sub, as I'm not at home over the next weeks. But I might resub in the future.

It's too expensive. Even the base version with no bonus stuff is 70€ ... no thanks. Even 60€ would have stretched it already for me. Without the GamePass thing, I wouldn't even have checked out until a couple years from now maybe.

The Secret Level episodes on Amazon made me realize that most big games are totally lame.

Indy game has kinda crazy high graphic requirements anyways. Considering I can play Cyberpunk with full path tracing and stuff and it works fine.. Indy game makes my PC hot, and everything feels like walking through mud. It doesn't even have a huge open world with lots of stuff visible at the same time at all times.

Not just any students. Little children. Nobody gave a crap about them getting killed. At this point it was clear that the US doesn't want it any other way, tbh.

Yeah, it's a bit infuriating. If Trump says something positive, he will be taken at face value. If he says something negative then obviously it was just a joke and not serious, and anyways, it won't pass congress, so no worry!

Every single one of those "selective points" is worth a huge outcry, lol.

Or they just bribing Trump for something.

Having timeouts again recently.

I mean, it's on him for using an abbreviation of a game that is very similar to the abbreviation of a game made by Obsidian.

lol people are malding so hard about Ciri in Witcher 4, I'm totally into it now and will for sure play it when it's releasing.

Woah, that incredibly long boot sequence was pissing me off so much. Thanks for the tip, removed it right away.

You know what. After thinking about it for a while (not really), I feel like it could be interesting to play as an actual older warrior-like woman. I mean, old disgruntled dudes with big beards are in style already, so why not do the equivalent of that as a woman?

Because people are retarded. But also because Witcher = Geralt. I want to play as some burly, stoic, old man. That would be nice. Don't really care about female character in Witcher 4, it's just that I'm really meh about Ciri.

Ciri was the most meh part for me in Witcher (books and game). So for now I'm meh about it.

Did more Indy yesterday. It's slowly beginning to really take me in. What was muffling my experience at first was the not so great interface when it comes to maps, notes, etc. Somehow it's hard to find stuff, and even now, just a few hours in, it's so full with things... if I pick up a new document and just take it without reading, I'm having a really hard time finding it again. Slowly getting used to that now, I guess, so it gets better. Love the graphics so far. The environment just looks nice. Climbing is too slow, though. Can't wait to visit egypt - on screenshots it looks like this is going to be my thing a lot. Oh, one more thing... I'm using the "easy" puzzle mode, because usually I have a hard time to get arsed but now I noticed that it might be a little much help.. one of the puzzles in the Vatican completely stopped being a puzzle and ended up nothing more than a "go to x, press all buttons, do as Indy says", since Indy commented literally on everything I was supposed to do. That kinda ruined the experience for me and I was a bit disappointed. /Edit: I just remembered another thing. Is it just me or is the sound sometimes really weird? Especially in the beginning, with some(?) characters when they talk and I look into a different direction or walk a bit away, it sounds like they are speaking through a tin can. Really weird.

"which has been celebrated in some quarters of social media." --- some?

New update is out with a couple new features: https://www.cyberpunk.net/en/news/51028/update-2-2-is-live

Went approx 1 hour into Indy. So far not bad, will continue. Animations in cutscenes feel a bit janky at times, but oh well. Other than that, getting a bit of a Deus Ex-y exploration vibe so far. Hoping this continues for the rest of the game.

I tested it now since it's only 1€ for first 14 days. But oh boy, that download speed is atrocious... I'm at 17% now and downloading for 1 hour already. /Edit: You have to do this to fix the download speed: https://www.esportstales.com/tech-tips/how-to-fix-xbox-app-slow-download-speed-pc-game-pass

Cool. Guess I will try it then. In other news, itch.io is currently down: https://bsky.app/profile/itch.io/post/3lcu6h465bs2n

You mean if I get Gamepass I can buy it for cheaper or that you play it for the Gamepass price then? I never used it, so no clue how it works. Also is Gamepass a streaming service or do you download and use games as usual?

Crazy how fast this suddenly ended. Complete failure. Of course the new gov will now say whatever they need to get western money. I believe this won't end well anytime soon, though.

The new Indiana Jones game looks nice, but it's 70 bucks... nah. I'll wait 6 months and buy it for 20 or so then.
