They should ditch cyberpunk and do a playtru of Mario rpg. It is delightful.

2023-11-24 21:29:55 +0000 UTCIn Alan Wake 2 the loot is randomized so they can control your experience algorithmically. The game will always give you just enough stuff to get by whether you use all your stuff or just hoard it. I’m usually a hoarder in survival horror but learned to just use whatever I needed when I needed it in AW2.
