  • Cyberpunk 2077 (continued)

    Welp, I done did it. Purchased and downloaded the game this past Monday.
    While designing my character, my goddamn GPU fried...I've used it for mining and have definitely left it on for days on end so I think it probably was at the end of its life already.

    I ordered another and it arrived today, installed, everything was cool. Fired up the game.

    I haven't really noticed any bugs. I'm having a bit of a struggle getting
    into the narrative...I hate to say it's not compelling but it doesn't grab me the way GTA V does.

    I also keep feeling motion sickness. I know, loser old-man crap, but...I have had some pretty gnarly head injuries and since have gotten progressively
    worse motion sickness. I notice I can play some games (GTA V, Assassin's
    Creed) for hours on end with no issues but this game makes me queasy. The
    only game that's worse for me, so far, is original Doom. So...bummer. But I'm going to soldier on!

    Anyone else have the game? Thoughts on the narrative? I also can't wrap my
    head around the control schema all that well, but it's not terrible...just
    not my favorite.

    I haven't played the game, and likely won't. But I do know that
    usually the fix for motion-sickness issues with games is to change the Field-of-View (FOV) setting to a bigger/wider number. If that is
    possible with that game/setup, it might help.
