Nondescript Van posted:LOL at Penis 2 being marketing. It's cut vs uncut you dweebs. Same way hair is Hair 1, Hair 2, etc. I remember a few months ago when the character creations options were hinted at and some people were upset about 2 peniseses vs 1 vagina option and it was really obvious it was to include circumcision and not some sort of penis bias (at least in that case). That's the kind of confusion you court by giving all your options a number and not something descriptive like "Mullet" and "Bigger Mullet" Which is to say they should delay the game another week to name all the body parts properly

Darth Walrus posted:I do wonder what the definition of a 'tech weapon' is. That's what the engineer skill tree seems to principally benefit, and they seem distinct from rifles, pistols, and so on. Maybe they're your built-in weapons? There are different weapon mod types: Power weapons – high fire rate, high recoil. Tech weapons – low fire rate, high penetration. Smart weapons – guided bullets. So for a pistol, you can install a Power Weapon mod, a Tech Weapon mod, or a Smart Weapon mod. The Power Weapon version shoots faster, the Tech Weapon version shoots slower but goes through people and cover, and the Smart Weapon version has guided bullets that can shoot round corners. Perks that affect Tech Weapons would not affect the pistol if it has a Power or Smart mod installed, perks that affect Pistols would affect it regardless of mod type. I think? Based on a wiki for a not yet released game, so could be inaccurate

I do hope that they allow us a good, satisfying 'no, seriously, gently caress the corps' ending. I want to absolutely ruin Arasaka and Miltech's days. Punks aren't sellouts to 'ethical capitalists', especially when they're the biggest arms dealers in America.

By now I'm used to early guns firing off at a 45 degree angle while someone in the distance screams "IT'S REALISTIC GUNPLAY!" at the top of their lungs until you unlock the ones with laser accurate full auto hipfire later. I'm more curious about if the more "passive" Cyberware limbs are full swaps or stat sticks. Like, will how strong robotic punch arms are be reliant on how muscular your meatsack arms the surgeon chopped off and threw in a dumpster were? Like some kind of cyberpunk Twilight zone episode.

I predict this to be a 100 hour first person RPG with some average gameplay that gets too easy after a while, but elevated by its writing and character moments. It's not going to be a life-sim promised by a fraud who lost a legal argument with Kevin Costner of all people. The reason why the reboot Assassins Creed games dont measure up to the Witcher 3 is that the question marks on the map are just light distractions that fill the spaces between the real meat of the game. Ubisoft decided those question marks WERE the game which leads to a lot of underwhelming filler in lieu of content that doesn't respect your time. Horizon however is on Witcher 3's level.

Vorik posted:Transphobia, the male gaze and video game titties.. this game is just chock full of problematic stuff. Sometimes it's not worth putting a game over marginalized folks. It really has been making me rethink my pre order. I get where you're coming from, but I don't think its a cut and dry situation when a piece of media is trying to depict a dystopia. Like, it's not as if the overall message of the game is going to be "this place is fantastic! look at all these tits!". This is a clumsy analogy, but you don't read Brave New World in order to be titillated. I think it does become a whole big gray area with a video game though, because the overriding principle for any big budget video game is for it to be fun and satisfying and pleasant and gorgeous. So you potentially have a game that's trying to do social commentary, but has ultimately built a world that its audience will find satisfying and want to spend time in, and 'discomfort' is antithetical to that. And obviously, the story and experience are built around a player actively engaging with the game. Maybe there are narrative ways to push back against certain things? The Witcher series was always in that weird position of saying "look, Geralt likes to gently caress", so ended up being very male gazey. This has the potential to be a bit more open and malleable to player agency. But honestly, I have no idea. I'm sure reviews etc will go into this. Nothing wrong with cancelling your preorder and waiting for reviews and editorials if you're worried the game might not be for you. So really, there are a lot of unknowns here. I think a lot of it will rest on how the writing handles things like sex work or the trans experience, or even whether it handles those things at all. The Witcher 3, Geral'ts sex drive aside, was really good at making characters - even questy NPCs - feel like real people with complicated lives. I think if this game keeps that up, it'll be a good thing. Obviously, the marketing - especially on Twitter - has been really exploitative, which isn't a good sign. But I do think it's a little too nuanced to make calls about this game making marginalised people unsafe while everything's still under embargo. Give it a week or so.

this seems small and silly but one thing that excites me is the potential for DLC. they could release new mods and weapons and clothes and missions and perks all within the framework of Night City for years if they wanted, the game could grow and change for years to come. that seems neat and cool to me.

Thinking about character customization in CP Red, compared to the video game adaptation we are about to play in a few days. In Red you start out with 62 points to spend on 10 stats, you have 70 skills, 6 weapon slots (you can increase this with some cyber implants), 3 armor slots, 20 inventory slots, and 56 cybernetic implant slots that in some cases you can increase how many more slots you have (you can give your character two additional arms for example). The big thing though that disappoints me about CP77 in comparison to the pen and paper RPG, is that character background is stripped way down to just three basic backgrounds, but to make up for this CDPR made them very meaningful choices as they determine how your game starts and plays.

I don’t know that this isn’t in the main game, but the Cyberpunk IP has a lot of low-orbit space bullshit like competing space stations and cultures that only exist off planet. There’s a lot of leeway to tell stories there, and it wouldn’t be open world obviously, which might cut down on the work. Idk.

resetERA is basically a lot of people overcompensating for their time supporting NeoGAF which ended up being everything they're supposedly now against, and it's just kind of a lot now. I feel like the hype cycles are at least mellowing out a bit, because it's exhausting to see people whip themselves into frenzies about upcoming games and movies. Goons are pretty chill nowadays, what with us all being like 80 years at this point.
