One on hand, I think you should be able to meet any game on its own terms, and be able to play it the way it wants to be played. It's part of the job of the creator to make the audience want to come along with it, and the job of the audience to be willing to do so.

On the other hand, refusing to go along with it can be pretty funny on a stream.
What if the 'game's own terms' is a horse stuck on the roof, mmm?

what's weird is the giant bomb stream (not really a big fan of them anymore in general) the game seems 100x more buggy then cohh's stream which i have had on all day

gb mentioned they have all the patches and the new driver update and both are playing on pc so i have no idea what is going on

This was present in a trailer they released several months ago, and I believe a lot of people brought it to their attention back then. Bit worrying they haven't even bothered to fix that.

Please don't judge streamers as a measuring stick for anything except likely offenders of various types.

A few are actually really good human beings, but in my professional experience a lot of them are absolute garbage tier people. The worst are the ones who use their kids and/or target kids (which my kids love for some reason...they're stuck inside during the pandemic...so you have to tolerate some of it).

Did they start a new game? One of the early reviewers mentioned that the patches didn't do anything for them until they started a new game.

You know I was wondering the same thing. They also mentioned that they have a special rare katana that was "given to them in a special build, you won't have this at start"

Which makes me think that they're playing a save that wasn't fresh from the patch, so we may have a better experience. Not that you should assume such, but its a thought.

The fact that there's net scenarios in some of the missions and cdpr's good if short record with dlc gives me hope they will flesh out the net side of things more

I seriously don’t understand how the gold standard in video game net hacking was Shadowrun for Genesis from 25 years ago.
