Poland is divided very sharply between south-eastern part, with additional big cities-rest and educated-uneducated lines. We had pretty huge protests lately after that loving undying demon dwarf wanted to push another dumb idea of his senile mind through the supreme court. Hopefully in 2 years they will get voted out, but country's hosed anyway. Hopefully I'll end up in Germany owned part now..

Maybe you should all just play the loving game before jumping to conclusions about what is and isn't in the game?

I kinda wonder how buggy is buggy. Literally zero times in my life have I gone into a release day game where reviews promised the game was 'riddled' with bugs, and had serious problems at any point. Well, except a bug that didn't allow the game to start or something which might have happened one time. I even remember KotOR 2 coming out and it was basically panned as being flat-out broken, but I played my 1.0 (CD? DVD?) and never ran into a single problem. Maybe I'm just blessed? I just feel like I can't put much stock in that kind of criticism, I guess. Personally, I'm not looking forward to the insanely large and (for me) slow download. I got given the pre-order as a present months ago, but it will come from Amazon as a disc with a code lol so I can't pre-DL it. I even have to hook up a disc drive temporarily because I haven't put a disc in my PC in like 6+ years.

On a less serious note, why do you all think Street Kid is the least popular path in our poll? The Nomad path does not appeal to me, the trailer just seemed so "focus group of what people ascribe to be American Ideals: family and freedom, whatever that means" Corpo does sound fun, I wanna burn poo poo down from the inside - just not on my first play through. Street Kid sounds like it should be a fun taste of what it's like to really live in Night City as a regular joe

Hey, this reminds me. I've been wondering if "Power" weapons are going to be hack proof, or if an old timey AK-47 and sawed off hillbilly shotgun are going to be hackable by enemies because NANOMACHINES.

Sab669 posted:On a less serious note, why do you all think Street Kid is the least popular path in our poll? I think it's because Street Kid doesn't really seem to have any particular hook. Like, Corpo gives you the sleaze, and the Out For Revenge On My Middle-Manager vibe, and promises you access to the upper echelons in ways you couldn't otherwise get. Nomad gives you the Fish Out Of Water feeling, it lets you start off in the Badlands, you get a cool car, it has echoes of Mad Max, it feels distinct. Street Kid is... kinda just. Nothing special. You're in the city, you start off in the underbelly where you've apparently spent all your life, maybe you know some of the background stuff other characters wouldn't and you've got contacts in the gangs?

Sab669 posted:On a less serious note, why do you all think Street Kid is the least popular path in our poll? Nomad's appeal is partly that it's kind of going for a Mad Max "clans & gangs roaming the wastes between cities" vibe, and partly because your character is going into Night City blind just like you, the player, are.

Sab669 posted:On a less serious note, why do you all think Street Kid is the least popular path in our poll? I'm doing Nomad because the rp character I had in my head fits best there - want to play an redneck engineering genius that grew up in dirt floor shacks and, despite being a kind and gentle soul, gets caught up in some bullshit in NIGHT CITY and has to start DOING WHATEVER ID DO IF I WERE A REAL PERSON IN TEH GAME (probably murder) as is my first playthru of all RPGs Anyway to me redneck = nomad so here I am I'm also hoping for a bunch of shameless Fast & Furious references but I'm prepared to be disappointed in this regard

Sab669 posted:On a less serious note, why do you all think Street Kid is the least popular path in our poll? I was gonna do street kid first and then corpo afterwards and then maybe nomad if I ever got around to it but someone else pointed out in the last thread that it’d be kinda neat to experience the game outside the city first then later enter the city not knowing who anyone was or how to get anywhere. Whereas being a street kid your whole background is knowing the streets but IRL you’re like, “I have to go where?” and pull up your map to find your objective that’s fifty feet away so I kind of like the idea of going nomad first time through for that reason. Plus if I gently caress up so bad on my character creation I can start my real first character as a street kid now that I know my way around n stuff.

In other news: my CE is still being "packaged", so with the download the earliest I could play is Friday assuming it's sent tomorrow and delivered on Thursday.. Suits me for being a sucker to spend extra 120 EUR over regular box for some random stuff I'll forget in a day.

Also as penance for handwringing about dicks have a link to the Waypoint podcast from today with more of Rob's thoughts about the game (which I'm sure I'll mess up linking) Heor He decided to throw caution to the wind and went with a Hard playthrough and ended up not hitting the title card until the 16 hour point instead of 6ish like a lot of other reviewers. It seems to have really increased his enjoyment though which is promising. E: and also he couldn't tell why everything looked like poo poo until he turned off all the extra post processing options, especially chromatic abrasion which he said was overpowering

Unlike Cool Nomad who had a whole life and sweet car outside the city. Later, I decided that corpo "YOU R FIRED" is just more funny. Because I am shallow like that in my videogame character logic.

Boiling Point: Road to Hell still remains the buggiest game I've ever seen on release. Well, that and Hidden & Dangerous 2, where enemies could shoot you through walls or from several miles away with their assault rifles and your squadmates routinely fell through the ground.
