Just say you're sick, then you get 2 weeks off to play, or at least a few days until you get tested.

I’ve managed to stay like 98% in the dark about this game. W3 is one of my favorite games ever, so I feel kind of compelled to just jump into this even if everything I actually have seen so far makes me think I’ll like it less. Hopefully that’s just the voice they’ve decided on for marketing, though. The actually RPG crunchiness seems like it could be a good step up at least. W3 was a pretty average RPG mechanically imo.

w00tmonger posted:god drat. so you can just sync Gog to your steam account and use it directly for everything. UI is way less cluttered and awful than what steams become lately How do you do this? I know how to sync Steam to my GOG account, but not the other way around.

This is totally a great idea my bros but since this whole effort is for benefit of the wife, and the wife would be so mad to see a cable snaking through our entire house, seems like a dealbreaker Also in a couple of months we're moving most of our chilling into a different room, where my desk + pc will also be, so I can just connect directly to the tv from my comp at that point and the shield will be moot I think this is just a sign from the gods that my wife did something bad enough in a past life to not deserve to see me play CP2077 the day it releases I'm sure she'll be crushed (every time I bring up this game she just says "oh my god another game?!" and i say "no babe it's still the same game it just hasn't come out yet")

Re: reviews. It seems lots of journos don't have a copy, so we may have a dozen 'review in progress' without scores today from the big sites and that's it.

From CDPR: It has come to our attention that, because of a mistake on our part, one of the in-game advertisements used in the World of Cyberpunk 2077 lorebook and the under-development version of the game contains a character based on Mr. Izuagbe Ugonoh. Immediately after learning about this fact, we removed the in-game advertisement from the game, as well as all future reprints of the World of Cyberpunk 2077 lorebook. We also contacted Mr. Ugonoh’s management team so the situation can be fixed. At the same time, it is also important for us to publicly apologize to Mr. Ugonoh himself. Please accept our apology — although this situation is the result of our mistake, it should not have occurred in the first place. I had to look up who this was, it said and I quote " Polish-Nigerian mixed martial artist and former professional boxer and kickboxer." How utterly random is that. Okay with the Polish connection not so much.

Just curious was there a reason to buy Cyberpunk 2077 on GoG vs Steam? I expect it is the same deal but I haven't been following this very close. e:typo

My office job has had us back in the building since Memorial Day  The icing on the cake is that my psuedo-boss works on the opposite side of the country so when we infrequently interact it is, obviously, over the phone.

ymgve posted:I do find the Confirmed Bachelor perk a bit weird since it also increases your damage against men. The mixing of violence and sexual attraction in a single perk is a bit icky. This isn't particularly out there or new to video games and/or RPG feats / rules that exist. As an example, Fallout has a perk that allows for increased persuasion checks AND damage against the opposite sex.

syntaxrigger posted:Just curious was there a reason to buy Cyberpunk 2077 on GoG vs Steam? I expect it is the same deal but I haven't been following this very close. GoG version comes with some extra goodies, no DRM and all the money goes directly to CDPR rather than Valve taking their complimentary 30%, if that's something you care about.

Thankfully it’s no longer an issue after with we moved, but remember you can always disconnect it when you’re done playing stick it in a closest.

The Last Call posted:From CDPR: I assume someone just google image searched "boxer pics" and took a random one as a placeholder and it never got replaced, then ended up in the lorebook and game. Like that thing where an Assassin's Creed concept art picture ended up on the wall in the Uncharted 4 trailer Anasurimbur posted:This isn't particularly out there or new to video games and/or RPG feats / rules that exist. As an example, Fallout has a perk that allows for increased persuasion checks AND damage against the opposite sex. That's a bit different though, since it doesn't imply any attraction on your part, just that you're good at convincing them.
