  • Currently taking my sweet time playing No Man’s Sky. I bought it on release, never played until recently, and couldn’t be happier. Avoiding the story, building a massive base, and exploring the cosmos has never been so satisfying. Next up on my list of games to check out again is Cyberpunk. Everyone and their mother says it’s better now, so I figure it’s worth a shot.

Ex. “How are you today?” “I’m doing just fantastic so far, how are you?” Or “ch-ch-ch-chillin,” sung to the tune of the Chia Pet jingle. Usually gets me further than “Good, you?” Social interaction is just another game I’ve had to get good at.

Now we’re left dealing with 1.3x the business with 0.6x as much staff. Staff who are necessarily less stellar than their predecessors.
