Dumb, the Cyberpunk game should have evolved from the Witcher series, not gone back to square 1 and evolved "like" the Witcher series.

It's a fantastic game and it's currently on sale for the lowest it's been in a long time. Just be aware that it's heavily based on large scale teamwork, and you won't really be able to take advantage of many parts of the game without joining an org. That being said, it's still a great game just to grab a rifle and join the front line.

"oh we'll just make them think that a bunch of violent extremists are coming specifically to hurt them and they'll scatter like the rats they are"

arms themselves against bodily harm instead

"wait not like that"

I don't really like rogue-likes either, for pretty much the same reason. Rogue-lites are a thousand times better just for that one small change.

Also basically no replayability because there's zero progression. Since every round starts exactly the same as every other, there's nothing to unlock other than skins, and you have to pay for the battle pass to even unlock those. Meanwhile games like Battlefield or Battlebit or COD have tons of things to unlock that you can use when you want.

I don't know what else it could possibly be

I also want to throw Tabletop Playground in the mix. It's like TTS but has a better user experience, and they didn't disable global chat because someone talked about being trans like TTS did.

Do you have a magnet phone mount in your car? Works exactly the same way.

Good point, maybe. But yeah, this isn't rewritable media, this is archival data storage.

I don't think it's that type of "durable." I think they mean you can read from it forever without having to rewrite the data, which currently isn't true of platter and solid state storage. This isn't screen technology, though, it's storage technology, so I'm not sure the comparison is useful.

Probably unrelated

I dunno, if my VPN came out and said "heads up, one of our servers was seized and you have literally nothing to worry about because nothing is stored or logged on our servers," that's good news IMO. Obviously the best case scenario is not having it seized, but sometimes that's not possible, and it's a mark of a good VPN when the consequences to you of a server being seized are the same as if it wasn't (i.e., none).
