I loved the first game because it took you from being little more than a peasant to playing a key role in a noble resistance army. That journey was fantastic. However, Henry's story clearly wasn’t finished, and I expected Kingdom Come: Deliverance 2 to build on that -- maybe give us a fresh perspective instead of repeating the same "peasant to sort-of-knight" arc. But from the reviews, it seems like that's exactly what they’ve done. Again...
By the end of KCD, we learn Henry has noble blood. So why is he still trudging through mud and filth, barely scraping by? That decision blows my mind. KCD1 already gave us a brilliant, realistic look at peasant life in the Middle Ages -- I was sure KCD2 would take the opportunity to properly show the noble (knight) experience this time around.
Either way, I have the game preloaded and will play once I'm done plundering the high seas.
Probably because he has amnesia.

As long as there's no parkour, I'm in.
I'm not talking about 'basic jumping'. I'm talking about the Tarzan nonsense in Doom Eternal.

I'm a big fan of the two original Dark Alliance games (bought them on Steam and still own the PS2 discs) and I never touched this new sequel. I saw enough videos of it and heard enough to realize it was nothing like the first two and passed on it. The intended demographic was, apparently, people new to the series and to D&D and they had hoped old farts like me bought it on name recognition alone. Thankfully, people are more careful with their money nowadays and didn't bite.
The game was bad, simply put. It wasn't a true Dark Alliance game and just used the name to try and reel older folks in. Nobody fell for it and it flopped hard due to that.

I'm still so incredibly frustrated how things went w/ killing Phantom Liberty for me ...
I finished my Cyberpunk playthrough, and then habitually cleaned up my savegames, keeping only the very last one, very close to the end of the game. Turns out this was too late in the game, when it's no longer possible to deviate from the path or trigger the expansion.
So I can't play Phantom Lib with my original playhrough character sadly. I have to either start from the very beginning, or in any case start a new game and use the option to skip ahead to the expansion.
As a gamer with slight role-playing tendencies that just kills me - I want to play it with my character. Sigh.
I still have it on the todo to figure out if the savegame format has been sufficiently reverse-engineered (or whether I can help with that) to create a new savegame just before the point of no return and then splice over all my character etc. stats ...
Edit: https://www.nexusmods.com/cyberpunk2077/mods/718 looks promising

The game is insanely similar to Overwatch. Both in graphics as with its heroes. Few examples:
Starlord = Tracer + Reaper
The Punisher = Soldier 76 + Bastion
Luna Snow = Lucio + xx (forgotten as I write this)
Magneto = Zarya + Sigma
Etc
I get the "better steal good ideas than have bad ones" mantra but this is crazy; shady and if they hadn't also copied the polish and fun of Overwatch, it'd be like you ordered Overwatch from Temu.
This is like the butthurt Blizzard exec whining and claiming that Black Widow was a copy of Widowmaker. 🤣
