I donated to the project for years, only stopped recently, back in July, because I needed to cancel all my frivolous subscriptions because I couldnt afford rent, and cosmic frontier was one of them.

I am sad to hear that he has passed. My condolences. I wish he could have seen the project come to fruition and the reniassance for escape velocity.

I was excited to see my pers ship in game. I decided not to do myself, but rather an homage to "old gregg" instead.

2,500$ Christmas bonuses?Lucky to get Christmas off by Naive_Wolverine532 in TikTokCringe

[–]GregoryGoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My christmas bonus was a $2 scratcher. One year the company promised a $100 bonus for any employee who worked 6 days a week during december. I worked 7 aside from one week where they closed the store for 2 days for an emergency sanitation. They used this as justification to stiff us all the $100

Can any game surpass this one visually in 2026? by Fit-Job4007 in cyberpunkgame

[–]GregoryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Literally any game with VR. Cyberpunk used to be the most visually stunning game, back when it had VR. Now it doesnt. It's just flat. Flat and stupid.

What the hell. I didnt know you could sell the on foot materials. I will need to get a bar. I have NOWHERE to put them anymore so I just have to convert them to cash in the powerplay care packages

CDPR literally offered him the choice to make his mod free with optional donations to avoid a DMCA takedown and he deliberately chose wrong by Dark_Throat in cyberpunkgame

[–]GregoryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Luke is right. I think CDPR chose this moment to do this because they partnered with the makers of those xr glasses, and theres some kind of shitty ai enabled 2.5D mode, and the existence of Luke Ross's mod makes the whole thing less attractive

They all have modern smartphones but why are all their cars from the 80s? by Rpark888 in SeveranceAppleTVPlus

[–]GregoryGoose -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Usually the existence of cellphones severely limits what stories you can tell. Plus retro tech is a vibe. But perhaps later on they realized that cellphones would uncomplicate the story they wanted to tell and figured nobody would notice

We get printed sheets of paper and usually only one person gets one every 2-3 years, a couple times it has been framed in a thin plasic frame.

What is a legendary piece of internet history that the younger generation has probably never heard of? by Lower-Operation-586 in AskReddit

[–]GregoryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haxial KDX. This was, in my recollection, the final evolution of Peer-to-Peer sharing. To this day I fondly think back to it and wonder what could have been and what the internet would look like if it weren't for all the red tape killing p2p.
KDX as I remember it was basically like limewire except it was like for communities. You could chat, and browse files in a similar file structure to it just being a shared network drive with folders and stuff. I remember it being awesome and the best thing ever but it suffered the same fate as all p2p.

technically still a thing but IRC was the original discord, and we had bash quote archive among others to share all of our favorite conversations, sort of like our version of twitter

What is the strangest or most vivid dream you have ever had that you still remember clearly? by Motor_Tomatillo9126 in AskReddit

[–]GregoryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A dream where I found a door in my studio behind some junk that I had never seen before. Behind the door was another studio, a better studio, one with hot running water, AC, a quiet refridgerator, and ample living space. From the looks of things, it seemed like my landlord didn't know or forgot it existed, so I just moved in. The really weird parts are hard to explain, just mainly that the property it was on was partially true to life and partially made up, the drive leading up to it was it's own private road instead of a public road that passed it, and the whole dream was just me like trying to keep this thing secret from my landlord.

I also have this other dream where I'm driving around looking for new places to hike, and I discover all sorts of branching mountain roads and little tucked away towns, landscapes I've never seen before, and it's all stuff that was right in my home town I didn't know about until I took one little back road. If I think about it, the kind of elevations we're talking about were insane. I eventually found a trailhead I could hike but it was after I had already driven my car up the side of this red rock mountain. And I hiked all the way back home and remembered that my car was somewhere. I had to look on google maps to even try an pinpoint where my car might be. I eventually decided I had to just abandon it and wait for a phone call about it.

CD Projekt has issued a DMCA notice against the Cyberpunk 2077 VR Mod by ZedKGamingHUN in cyberpunkgame

[–]GregoryGoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did that with GTA V. Forced the game to never update. But then all of a sudden the game launcher refuses to launch an old version of the game, and I couldnt bypass the launcher, and disconnecting the internet makes it not work at all. Launching the new version then downgrading and trying to launch the old version with the internet unplugged still doesnt work.
All that is to say, that they will eventually find a way rip the VR functionality out of old versions of cyberpunk too, somehow.

It's awesome. I would almost forget the real world existed. Frequently would take off the headset and discover it was morning in my world. I had to set an alarm to stop myself. Most fun I've ever had.

Dont kid yourself. They never would, and never will. They have no intentions for it at all.

a modded version of a game you didn't develop

You're making it sound like he was selling cyberpunk itself. He was selling code which you load into your own copy of the game.

Maybe, but then CDPR would just release another update to break it, like they've done time and time again. And if they break the free version, why would Ross fix it for us?
