Trying, but it's quite difficult. It's like reading a terrible novel, only it's actually all real.

I find it pretty wild that there are people--especially those in the industry--who *haven't* seen any of the films! Aren't they a prescribed part of childhood education?

This plus PoE2 at the same time ...

I've also heard "+the forgotten city" thrown in, which makes it ever better!

Good shout, thanks. I really enjoyed Perdido St Station.

Will wait to see what the reviews on performance are like (as well as reviews in general, like any sane gamer should).

Thanks!

Appreciate this, thank you.

Thanks. I've only read Station Eleven by the former, and don't know the latter at all.

Thanks. Read Blingsight this year.
Will look up The Spear Cuts Through Water as I do enjoy fantasy, too.

Yeah, I read Blindsight earlier this year. Didn't read the sequel though, as I'd heard that it's a bit meh.

Thoughts on Murakami's latest? I've just started it. One of my favourite authors, though Hard Boiled Wonderland is one of my least favourite of his books, so ... 🤷‍♂️. (As far as I can tell.) Nevertheless, I love being immersed once more in his prose.

I just listened. I thought it was totally fine. No major news (though your questions were fine and on point), but it felt like there was an element of PR to their responses/vibe. 🤷‍♂️ The biggest thing for me, which you raised, was why it released with the features it did, when they're now changing it.
