in a hellscape of post-ironic doomposting, this game is the brutal necessity that one needs to open their eyes to the consequences of unrestricted internet access. it’s a medicine that tastes of corrupted human desires, yet it clears the mind and washes other bitter things that may linger in your system.
needy streamer overload is a perfect condensation of the horrors of the internet

People who claim that CP2077 is another No Man's Sky are lying to your face. It's instead a cute little power trip with a boring perk/skill system, forgettable story, and spotty performance. The aesthetic at its worst is painful to look at, and at its best oversaturated. Not even the modding scene is anything to write home about, though there are some sparks of creativity here and there.

yet another “surprisingly good for a gacha!” the story isn’t exactly standout but it’s definitely not terrible, there’s actual gameplay, and it definitely has more than one writer on the team. rates are relatively generous and the game gives you a bunch of free stuff. progression feels simple but satisfying, however it’s mostly afk. music is actually standout (feryquitous is on this??) with a genre diverse ost and memorable tracks
still a gacha tho

some of the best gunplay and buildcrafting experiences i've had, there's nothing quite like it. the sandbox structure of game design is always something i love in a game, like yes give me a shitload of toys to slam together and play with! love that shit. every little thing feels shiny and new and your brain goes into overdrive thinking of what fits into your plastic castle that's held up by splash damage and ase elemental.
unfortunately, all of this is attached to borderlands 3. probably the worst story i've ever experienced to the point that i thought the writers were purposefully making it shit only to realize that they actually were trying to make me feel emotions with this garbage. it's an affront to previous entries if not only for the fact that it's UNFUNNY. if the guns and skills and abilities were all toys in a sandbox, the game itself is a sheet of metal with some rocks on it.
