Cyberpunk was fundamentally a good game at launch, but needed cleaning and tidying(if you ignore the last gen consoles, it was terrible and should never have come out on them). Redfall is fundamentally bad, it doesnt need a spit and polish, this needs a meteor.
The title should read "Redfall can be the next Final Fantasy XIV, if Microsoft wants it to be.", Nuke it from orbit, and release a basically new game. Except Redfall doesn't have the long standing francise name attached to it.
It is already a lost race though.
For instance, when humans were asked to solve distorted text CAPTCHAs, they were able to solve them in 9 to 15 seconds. That sounds great until you learn that they were only able to get the answer correctly 50-84% of the time.
On the other hand, bots taking the same texts were able to answer the same tests in less than a second, and they were able to do it more accurately—99.8% accurately, specifically.

If you want some long indepth coverage of games, both lore and around the games I have really really enjoyed this channel.
I presume a day off work.
Another Venu 2 owner here. It is great, does what I want from a smart watch(notifications, calender, heart rate, sleep and some other stuff), ties in nicely with the Garmin cycle computer I own, and allows for tracking between the two. And I get 3 - 4 days(or more depending on how much I am using it to record activities) in a single charge. I do kinda wish I had gone for a forerunner, but I dont wear it when cycling and it tracks walks and runs and everything else under the sun perfectly well.
Definitely recommend a Garmin if it fits your needs.
"Stupid Birds, can't believe he is feeding these government drones!" - His Neighbour (just as probable)
Tip for making Gale(or any wizard) learn scrolls. If you open up his spell book, then is a small button that opens a new menu(I think it is an open book with a flame, it is early in the morning for me), and it lists all the scrolls you can learn that you have, tick all the boxes, and then the pay the money. Took me 1 minute to spend over 3000 gold learning spells.
Street Fighter 6 - Still playing everyday and this iteration of Street Fighter is so much fun. Pushing on through Diamond with Marisa now, really enjoying her playstyle and trying to get slightly better every day.
Baldurs Gate 3 - Finally pushed into Act 2, so far it has been a very interesting act, definitely having fun exploring both the area and the dialogue options, with some very interesting combat happening. This game is kinda dominating my play time, and I don't feel like I will have time to play much else for a while, which is nice. Really looking forward to a Dark Urge play though when I am finished with this first run.
After my Dad passed away, and I no longer needed it for looking after him or sorting out things after he passed. I sold my car. I cycle a lot, and prefer getting around by bike, and now I dont have all the expenses that come with owning a car. Especially when it doesnt get used and is sat there rotting away.
Still deep in on Street Fighter 6, hit Diamond with Manon, and now heading to diamond with Marisa, and really tempted to push for Master rank with her. Still having a huge amount of fun with it, and excited to watch Evo this weekend.
Finishing up Remnant 2, several play throughs complete, and have had a lot of fun in single player and co-op. Definitely will be back for more.
Will be playing Baldurs Gate 3 this evening, really looking forward to sinking my teeth into this game, and hopefully enjoy it as much as I did the short period I had in Early Access.
Closer to the Edge - Available on youtube for free, and is a glimpse inside the madness of the Isle of Man TT. I am not a huge fan of motorsports, but this is a fantastic and epic watch that follows a bunch of rides in the run up and through the TT.
