Upon witnessing the shit show that is public discourse, I thought to look at whatever this game was for myself. I already know I wasn't its demographic, not behind CD Projekt Red, or shooters, or the tabletop game, or even as a fan of the Witcher. It was less about the gameplay and wanted to judge if its quality of writing was worth experience if fun factor didn't matter. However I also knew that was gonna be shoddy with the status of the Voodoo Boys where it went from white dudes with cultural appropriation to another scene of Haitians are in fact the voodoo fellas even when most of the population is Christian. Sure, whatever. So in my bug filled mess and slight exposure to not already giving me great impressions.

So in my 2 hours of reaching the Act 1 title card: Everyone's kind of shit, even V. Jackie was fine but that was at the tail end of what I played. Why did the car control like that? It (along with everything else I've seen) oozed more of a "hey we said the thing, isn't it cool!" which didn't have any charm especially when its all coming from essentially unlikable people.

It's a shame the game kinda doesn't work most of the time since I would've like to, y'know, see if it got any better or fun but I lost my arms at one point and head at another the amid cool "You and Jackie Did Cool Shit!" montage so I'm unsure if I can take more of this.
