I am dying, and this game has helped me.

My name is Erik, and I am dying.

I have Stage IV cancer. And though it is in a holding pattern, and I could live six more months or six more years, it is this growth and my body turning on itself that will take my life.

Perhaps foolishly, I saddled up last month for one more visit to Night City. I just finished another completionist playthrough, and as I write, V is sitting atop the Basilisk with PanAm beside him.

V has just six months and faint hopes, with a ticking time bomb in his head; about the same as me. And like me, he is clawing back normality and trying to claim every single day.

But the enormity of that task — normalcy — is a job in and of itself. It's damn hard work. You need people beside you. You must learn to truly live despite being draped with both a death sentence and its uncertainty.

I cried like a baby several times this run, and at the end, I was heaving so hard I lost my breath. But it was not just sorrow, it was also from empathy — the writers of this game (esp. the ending and all of Phantom Liberty) know somehow), truly know what it is to be dying and the desperation that drowns you to just have more time.

And that empathy, being seen and being understood, was also oddly positive. It was like a digital hug from Poland. And It meant the world to me; it has allowed me to have more courage the past few days to actually claim more agency and live my life.

For that gift, and the thousands of hours of joy that CDPR has given me across half a dozen games, I thank you.

I’m Erik, and while I’m dying, I’m also very much alive: no tomorrow is promised, make your today count.

Peace, chooms

Internship Requirement Question

Heyyo, I was planning to apply for the next years upcoming internship depending on the role openings but according to what is written on the requirements section on the offical blog, I might be offlisted if they’ll do the same ruling for the next year since I’ve just graduated this July from collage and on the blog it says that applicants should be recent highschool graduate or entolled as university student. In that case if I start doing my masters, would I be still seen/accepted as a university students?

I do have found some older records regarding the already graduated students status for people just like me that they used to accept people whom already graduated not more than a year or two ago. Anyone has any ideas about how this whole thing works? Or how things might go for next years internship? Thank you for reading!

Thermal Katana Valentino Edition

Has anyone else got their Valentino Thermal Katana broken?
I got mine yesterday and the light won't turn on, there is just sound. And yes, I charged it for the last 12 hours.

I already contacted the support. I am just curious if I just had bad luck or if there are more that arrived falty. So this is one of the rare cases where "not mine" is actually helpful.

Update: Even if it looks like it's fully locked into place, press it against the edge of the table one more time. At least that solved my problem.

Witcher Multiplayer Project Suffers Another Round Of Layoffs - Kotaku

Like I said somewhere else with all the projects they have on their plates I wouldn't be surprised if this one gets canceled sooner rather than later or are they shift it into just a single player and get rid of the multiplayer aspect

Ghost of Cyberpunk?

First off, I love Cyberpunk and especially it's critique of belief and religion. That said, I can't help but think there were huge missed opportunities in terms of incorporating the existence of a spirit/soul and how that ties into people who are heavily modified with cybernetics. Granted, I don't think if "supernatural" things existed in the universe and a personal soul was tied to a body that the premise of an engram overwriting the existing personality would be possible, but that's another topic.

At any rate, if we posit the potential existence of things like poltergeists, telekinetic or telepathic abilities, ESP, astral projection, demonic possession as well as guidance or protection from positive entities, the world would be much more complex, especially in terms of gameplay. For example, maybe one could forego a quickhack/sandevistan build in lieu of being able to throw enemies around the room, command their bodies to shoot their friends, or even temporarily leave your body to "possess" them and take control for a period of time. They could have the ability to send an attempted quickhack back at the attacker, instantly neutralizing them.

Beyond this are the ontological and philosophical questions of where nature (our bodies and presumably cybernetics) and nurture (circumstances as well as possibly higher purposes or inclinations) meet, as well as asking ourselves what AI actually is given it doesn't have a body, can't feel pain or pleasure, or hunger for that matter, not to mention doesn't feel an urge to mate or start a family, etc...

I certainly keep an open mind regarding these things, but I've always been intrigued by stories of the paranormal (and aliens/UFOs), and I am not making a decisive claim that this or that is the correct explanation or truth of reality. But I'm wondering if others have felt similarly, even to keep it open-ended and possibly hint at some people being immune to being hacked or seeming to have their own supernatural abilities not tied to tech, not to mention some of the philosophical conversations which are bound to take place in such a universe.

Anyway, I've been thinking about these topics for some time and I am highly-anticipating CyberPunk 2, whenever it comes out. I find the world creator fascinating and deeply-passionate about his creation (possibly an inspiration from nowhere which he is merely discovering like the rest of us, not consciously creating). Hope everyone is well, and "Wake the fuck up, Samurai! We have a city to burn!"

Should I get The Witcher 3: Complete Edition or the Blade Trilogy Blu Ray

Both are around the same price. I like blade so I was thinking having the blu ray would be cool and I could finally watch them all but I also just finished red dead redemption 2 and have been looking for another game to play and I hear the Witcher is very expansive. I’m not a sword and sorcery guy but it interests me. I’m a teen so I’m not swimming in my own cash so I can only get one for the time being.

Hey y’all I’m in need of some help if possible

Hey y’all I’m in a bit of a situation

so way back when cyberpunk came out I made a cd project account but come a few years later I got cyberpunk on pc and tried to login but it wasn’t the right email

so I tried logging in on the website and it was my email but I forgot some letters in my email and I tried back then to try and get into that miss spelled email and it said account deleted for inactivity even though that email never existed

now come way more years later I don’t have that miss spelled email memorized and I can’t get back into my old cd project account

And I’m trying to get back into my old account so I fix and fill in the missing letters on my email and make it the right email

And also so I don’t loose my old account or anything I had attached to my old account rewards or anything else I had on it

so I’m retching out and on the search for any help and or some way to get in contact with someone who works at cd project so I can get things set right if anyone is able to help me out that would be much appreciated

Thanks y’all

Help Cyberpunk has flatlined

Hi, I need help with a crash that happens every single time I try to launch Cyberpunk 2077.

Background: The crash started right after I installed Cyber Engine Tweaks (CET) and tried to bind a key in one of its windows. The game crashed immediately after that. I have since:

Fully uninstalled CET (removed all files from bin\x64\plugins\)
Verified game file integrity through Steam (multiple times)
Completely uninstalled and reinstalled the entire game
Deleted the r6\cache folder
Cleared shader cache
Disabled Steam Overlay, Discord Overlay, and AMD Radeon Overlay
Disabled Xbox Game Bar entirely
Confirmed the GPU driver is not the issue (reset OC/UV to stock, still crashes)

None of this fixed it — the crash still happens on every launch.
all my other games (including demanding ones) run perfectly fine. This crash is isolated to Cyberpunk 2077 specifically.

Crash report details:

EventType=REDEngineErrorReport
ErrorReason=Assert
InternalVersion=3.0.5294808 P4CL: 9778208 Stream: /R6.Root/R6.Release

No stack hash, no specific faulting module listed in the report itself. Checked Windows Event Viewer (both Application and System logs) — found nothing pointing directly to Cyberpunk2077.exe.

System specs:

CPU: Ryzen 5 3600
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6600
RAM: 16GB (2x8GB) DDR4 3200MHz
Windows 10 (build 19045)
Motherboard: MSI MS-7B84

My current theory: since the crash started right when I was binding a key in a mod, and survived a full reinstall, I suspect it's related to a corrupted UserSettings.json or key binding file in the Saved Games\CD Projekt Red\Cyberpunk 2077 folder — which a normal reinstall doesn't touch. I'm about to try deleting that folder (and disabling Steam Cloud sync for the game first) — will update if that fixes it.

Has anyone run into something similar? Any other ideas on what could cause a persistent Assert crash that survives a clean reinstall?

Witcher 1 on ps vita

Is it possible to port this brilliant game to PS Vita? Is anyone brave enough to take on the challenge? Or Maybe Rdr1

P.S

Unfortunately, I don't know anything about programming, but I looked and saw that it is possible to make such a port.

Back to the game, and the show after giving up 3 times

I am a very big fan of Keanu Reaves, and the movie Matrix, so I am very attracted to the game (also watched bladerunner and the ghost in the shell, also enjoy shows like Altered Carbon). I love the future ai/robot themed story so much, therefore I purchased the game 2020, and started playing couple hours after it was released. It was good but the gaming system was so complex, and I had to go somewhere abroad for couple weeks. I found myself don't know how to play after weeks away from the game, so I gave it up my first time.

Did not open the game until edgerunner was released, then I tried it again. Watched a lot of youtubes like "1000 hours into Cyberpunk xxx" tho, watch a lot of skin or in-depth analysis video about backstories and the universe, (but not the main storyline, because I know if I get the spoiler, I will never play this game)

Finshed edgerunner series, fel in love the song, not the biggest fan of the way this anime was directed because it is a fast pace, limited volume anime, personally think 10 eps are a bit limited to describe the universe. However, SANDEVISTAN still brought me back to the game. Installed a lot of mods, spent like 10+ hours to research mods I should install for the game, but somehow I only made it through chapter 1, and gave up on one of the story in chapter 2.

Then Phantom Liberty happened.

Watched more trailers, back story, gameplay blablabla.

Pre-purchased it before it was released, thinking about getting back to it, but never made it to the action.

2026/07 decided to uninstall League of Legends, and review my stash in steam, and have decided to give it another try, but this time, I made it through chapter, level 55 now, iconic cyberware rare++ w/e. It is so fun, to jump/fly in this world, taking metro, fast travel, even sleeping in my apartment or playing pool in it are enjoyable, this time, I think I will make it to the end, in both main game and DLC.

Idk what's changed, but I felt this universe are gigantic, where you need to invest enormous amount of efforts to understand a tiny bit of it. For example, when Daivd's mother passed away, I was thinking, "okay that is sad, but they were unlucky, that is all" But it hits me differently when I saw this plot related his mother's death https://www.youtube.com/shorts/z8HL_gzOeAo . Edgerunner is good on its own, and so is Cyberpunk 2077, but the short story line makes me feel not enough to build the emotional impact, I really started to understand the whole world after 3 retries of game, and 2 retries of the show (yes I gave up the show once, since I forced my wife to watch it with me, and apparently it is not that attracting if you are not a game fan)

I want to recommend this game to a friend (who played Hellsdiver with me, and loves Baulder's Gate 3), and I hope he will enjoy the game as much as me now. I am thinking to recommend him to finish chapter 1 in the game, so he can learn the night city basics (for example, cyberware, rippledoc, some gangs story, brain dance , kill some Cyberpsychosis, etc.), live in H10 for couple days (which looks extremely siumilar to H4 where David lived), then watch the show, hear the song "I Really Want to Stay At Your House", cry couple times then comeback to finish the rest of the story. What do you think the idea, or if you have any similar or opposite experience of mine, would like to hear you to share yours.
