    I lived through the hubbub that was Pre-release hype of Cyberpunk 2077, and man... the words coming out of just about everyone that had a youtube/twitch channel and played the pre-release demos behind closed doors were pretty propping Cyberpunk 2077 as this Genre Defining Game that will truly put the Roleplaying Game in RPG. It was a wild time to be alive and following everything that was Cyberpunk 2077.

  • @swordsandwolves

    Glad to see a few other Cyberpunk 2077 fans in the comments. I feel it hard to find anything more than cool acceptance from the general populace although the game is absolutely one of my favorites of all time. I know that can be said for any game probably, I just wish the go to reaction wasn’t nonchalance.

    To Ben, as someone who does anime/manga related podcast/content and heavy in that community. There has definitely been excitement for the Cyberpunk anime on Twitter in the communities I am in. It got alot of talk back when they 1st showed it off but with so many anime coming out the discussion faded a little but I know it will ramp back up when it drops next week.

    I love Assassin's Creed Rogue.
    I think the story is completely bogus, you don't play as a "rogue", you play as a Templar who is much more interesting at the very beginning than when the story gets going --- in Unity you truly play as a free agent up against Templars and Assassins both.
    Yet in spite of that the world is a beautiful place to be in. If you've played the games on 360 or PS3 then you know Rogue is the absolute best looking one of all of them, it's simply gorgeous on original hardware. I loved exploring the icy New England / Nova Scotia climes, it's wonderfully engaging.
