  • It was not the only true sin of cyberpunk. I played on release on a 3090 and it was bland, felt rushed, full of bugs, and the city felt hollow with things spawning in and out breaking immersion. It just wasn’t a fun game unless you stuck to the rails, and even then it felt half-assed. The intro where I’m rushed into the city and then they just skip over all the character introductions with a cutscene really left a sour taste in my mouth.

    They hyped it up to be this living breathing city with ultimate freedom and they simply didn’t deliver.

    Starfield, however, everyone knew they were using the same old engine, with the same old game design, it was just going to be Skyrim in space. And it was.



  • Hi! I work with google ads every day, it’s my job, and I have a business running ads for other small businesses.

    Guess what, I use an ad blocker!

    If all ads were innocent businesses trying to sell things I’m interested in, and they all had their targeting set up correctly, it’d be great. Unfortunately, all my ads are “you are male and under 60” and that’s as sophisticated as the targeting has been set to, so they’re totally irrelevant, terrible ads.

    Also, my other issue is that some advertising platforms have really low standards for what you’re allowed to show. Google at least has some standards and is sometimes overzealous with its automated disapprovals, which hopefully makes its platform a little better. But I don’t get to choose which platform ads I see when I visit someone’s site (and Google pays very little when compared to other platforms)
