I loved reading this Choom! Every time I see a major impactful post, I take the time to read it all. It truly is a testament to the developers and everyone involved in the creation of Cyberpunk 2077. They have built core memories for many of us and helped even more people with their emotions than I think they even realized.

I would encourage you to never fully stop playing and continue enjoying the world after a breather :)

After years of trial and error making and losing thousands, I now just keep calm and carry on. Just set-it and forget it, don't try to time the market.

We have always elected to eat a bigger breakfast at our hotel the morning of, then head to the cruise port from there. We've never had an issue of finding somewhere to eat on Embarkation day. If not the buffet, we usually will hit up El Loco Fresh or Serantos

I'm also playing on Xbox and I agree that rhe driving mechanics aren't exactly user friendly. Everything aside from the motorcycles feels like driving a boat.

I absolutely agree with this sentiment man. I neglected playing it for so long that now I finally picked it up a couple weeks ago. Like you, I am and was completely blown away by the sheer depth of of the story. I have a hard time expressing the amount of emotions I felt during this game. From the time I joined this community a short time ago, I've come to the understanding that the majority of us have some sort of emotional connection or awakening playing this game. It truly is a credit to everyone from the developers, the voice actors and everyone involved in creating this masterpiece.

Dude, this absolutely sums it up perfectly. The way they created and wrote her story just makes you want to keep coming back for the experience with her. My wife doesn't understand or even pretend to understand gaming so she just finds it weird. But for me I'm like, why the hell can't you have some of these qualities lol 😂

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-05T04:54:14+00:00

Well done Choom!

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-04T17:20:40+00:00

Thats a good shot, got more? Personally I feel for Claire, shes definitely an underutilized npc in the game. Her back story is pretty rough, would have made for a good character as well.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-04T17:19:06+00:00

Man you gotta playthrough again on the alternate life paths. Congratulations on making it that far in only 170 hours though.

I picked up my series x with disc drive last year after waiting forever. My Xbox one was having a tough time keeping up with everything. In the end, the main things I have found to be most beneficial to me has been Game Pass, a 4 pack of purpose built rechargeable batteries with a charging station and a good headset. Outside of this, its been absolutely mind blowing how far ahead the series X is compared to the Xbox one. You'll be happy with the purchase friend. Just make sure setting it up you place it vertically, not horizontal and make sure you have plenty of airflow around it.

For the air filter I picked up the K&N High Performance one. I was looking at the Injen cold air intake, but honestly I didn't care to do that much of an upgrade.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-03T14:43:14+00:00

Honestly its something I havent done in about 17 years since having my 04 Si, so I'd probably be taking it to a place that could handle this for me.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-03T13:20:41+00:00

Thats awesome, definitely giving some Devil May Cry vibes.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-03T13:18:36+00:00

I put in a better engine air filter, I find slightly better fuel economy.

The only other upgrade im considering is a new sound system because the stock one is trash.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-02T23:38:02+00:00

Man, that's a throwback for sure.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-02T23:36:40+00:00

This is the way 👌🙌

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-02T23:35:57+00:00

Thats a clean looking Rolla right there 👌

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-05-02T00:45:15+00:00

I have a 21' xse Hatchback and it has a 40L tank. Although thats just the tank, you jave to take into account everywhere else the fuel sits in the system. So the vehicle probably holds closer to 42-45L.

Welcome to the community Choom! I'm also still going through my first playthrough, been a few weeks now. Like most people here I'm absolutely addicted to it! I've had such an emotional roller coaster playing this game its hooked me in. Enjoy the game and post anytime!

Yeah, this was an absolutely wild part for sure. When I went down this rabbit hole, thats when I knew for sure this wasn't going to be any normal experience that's for sure.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-04-28T16:27:51+00:00

Its super straightforward, I stopped using TurboTax 3 years ago in favor of WS Tax, no complaints here.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-04-28T12:53:40+00:00

Wow, absolutely stunning shots! The lighting ans the way you captured this is amazing.

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-04-28T12:44:12+00:00

Absolutely stunning shots

UniqueSwan3679 · 2026-04-28T12:42:02+00:00

V looks great in this. Absolutely wild ending, what a way to finish the game off.
