Just spent 21 months in prison.

Any good releases I might have missed after March 5th 2024? Already have Kingdom Come Deliverance 2.

Edit: forgot to mention I really enjoyed Cyberpunk before getting arrested, as well as AC: Oddysey

There’s a lot of dopamine to be had in applying theoretical knowledge to overcome something you previously thought was nearly impossible.

      Black stake is a whole other beast though. Dr. Specter himself says if you really want to beat it you should be prepared to reset over and over for hours on end.

Having an occasional impossible run isn’t the end of the world, but when it’s more assured losses than potential wins, there’s a line
