    At some point we have to start calling developers and publishers on the bullshit, fans shouldn't have to eat the price plus a hit to their console storage or data caps just because they don't want to make time to compress their game while getting it in working order.
     
    I know adult babies were bitching about Cyberpunk but I rather they fix their shit before putting it in people's hands then roadmap that shit for months after initial release.

    Heard about the remakes of 1 and 2 by the folks that did the Panzer Dragoon 1 remake. Haven't heard anything about a Switch game besides that, although publishers especially on the investors meetings name drop Switch games all the time without anything coming of it.

    Thanks a lot everyone.
     
     
    @ChadoukenI didn't get any new tools but I did get a new weapon 😄.
     

     
    Since my birthday and anniversary are so close, I kinda get a "combo" of outings/gifts. We spent the weekend in Richmond at an AirBnB and did more of a home away from home. We were originally supposed to go to Disney, but I am not taking chance with that one. 
     
    We did go out to one restaurant while we were up there. We wend to Bookbinders to celebrate. Had some delicious crab cakes and a Kona crusted filet. That food was great!
     

     

     
    That steak was cooked perfectly. It;s one of the few times I ate a meal slow to truly savor the moment.

    If you get the disc version, I don't see any reason to keep the PS4, unless you like to collect consoles. 
     
    I'm selling mine to my buddy whose PS4 shit out on him. Giving him a great deal on it.

    Don't think about it... Oda and his assistants must be having fun coming up with these fools.

    A friend back home just surprised me with a $45 eShop card for my birthday. Which is a little early as my birthday isn’t until the 22nd of November. But I definitely appreciate it nonetheless. 
     
    I ended up getting No More Heroes 1&2 as well as Shantae: Risky’s Revenge - Directors Cut. 
     
    Once I finish Kingdom Battle I’ll probably jump into NMH. I’m excited to visit Santa Destroy again.

    Ethan is a conduit for the player. His "personality" is as surface level as possible because it's a first person game that's trying to put you in the shoes of an established character within the world. 
     
    I think there's a pretty obvious difference between a character who acts as a quote unquote "vessel" for the player, and a character who is not only completley useless to the narrative but doesn't even add anything by being interesting or entertaining. RE is full of characters like the latter. 
     
    But again, I feel like Hawk already made this point. 🤷🏾‍♂️

    I don't think it is a true self insert like you see in games like FE or Persona or even Link from Zelda, where the character is meant as a mostly voiceless blank slate. Ethan is a character who  just doesn't have a defined personality because he is meant as both the hero and the person in direct distress like the protagonists of Clock Tower or Fatal Frame franchises.
     
    We are meant empathize with their fear but have a disconnect as to not fully take it as something directly.

    Why do I have feeling this content will end up showing up in another version of the game at some point? A PC version or a PS5 "Remaster".
