Every unreal engine game runs like dogshit for no reason because of stupid shareholder-hype features nobody but epic understands how to use or how to optimize for. I’m so sick of it.

I’ll never get over the horrible way Bethesda handled Prey 2. Bought it up, strung the devs at human head studios along towards bankruptcy in a hostile takeover bid, then shut it all down, gave the trademark to arkane’s system/bio shock spiritual successor, and basically erased the old game by virtue of it not being able to be sold any more.

I wanted the stupid alien bounty hunter fps, I didn’t want 50+ hours of stupid black goo aliens pretending to be tea cups. I’m biased and salty, I know prey 2017 is a fine game, but I don’t really care.

I played the beta weekend, I liked it. I want to play it again once it’s out in June, although there were annoying parts. The sun gives you heat stroke or something as a status meter, and it makes you dehydrate faster until you get to shade. With how often you’re out doing stuff in the sun, it was kind of annoying, because I just had to keep going on blood harvesting trips through NPC camps, to proccess it at my base to keep my water stocked. But in the full game with better tech unlocked, I’m sure it ends up being fine.

A lot of people also got pissed at the sandworm because if you get eaten, all your stuff is destroyed with no way to recover it (unlike a normal death where you can loot your corpse), and sometimes it can feel abrupt when they breach. That said, I never got eaten ny the sandworm in my ~15 hours of play during the beta.

Also, Skyblivion is a mod for Skyrim, so as long as it’s a legit copy, Bethesda still made money off you at some point anyway. That probably helps a bit, too.

What they neglected to explain was that Cyberpunk Red is the fourth, and latest, edition of the Cyberpunk tabletop RPG on which Cyberpunk 2077’s world and game mechanics are based. This document they included in the game files is a rule book for that.

Oh wow, I could never put to words why I didn’t like the body type system either, but you nailed it. Yeah, I also wish that games could just give you sliders and/or more presets or something to have actual variety. If a game will only support curvy girls and buff dudes, but won’t also let people make, for instance, cute androgynous cat boys, or anything else a person might fancy, then what’s the point of it?
