Will write for weed :D

I've been playing on Stadia ( I have a potato PC ) and it was 95% stable since day 1 which is good. It was in a high frame rate setting by default which looked ugly AF but once found the setting and changed to quality over performance and it looks fantastic. I'd say it's a good game, but I don't think I'd call it a great game. It's very shallow, the open world is a lot more basic than even skyrim and not a patch on RDR2. The story is also not yours, its Jonny Silverhands which is a bit crap for a supposed RPG. Youngrippa did a good video about expected (or promised?) features and how almost all of them don't exist in the released version. People talk about the bugs sure but it has many more flaws than that. The linear story is fine, albeit about someone else. But you have to ask what the fuck they were doing for 6 years when they couldn't even get some basic systems functioning properly in that time. And I think Youngrippas other observation is correct - once they paid for Keanu the game took a different direction, the earlier iteration was honestly probably the better game. It's definitely worth a play, cruising around the city with jazz on radio and smoking a J is a sci-fi wonder. But the shallowness of the mechanics and open world definitely let it down. In time I hope they flesh it out more like what was spoken of in their 45 min gameplay videos from a while back, cos it just isn't that game right now. I'm near the end of my playthrough, starting to struggle to bring myself to bother and absolutely no incentive to go back and just dip in and "enjoy" the open world cos frankly its dead. So you play for the story and once you've played the story I don't know why you'd replay it, the life paths only open up 1 or 2 different dialogue options. If you want to see a nicely rendered cyberpunk/sci fi city and a fairly engaging story then you'll be satisfied. If you're looking for a deep open world experience with a good amount of replayability then I would say "watch out". 6.5 out of 10. But definitely a potential for higher score in the future - again - I'm not even factoring in any bugs - just what the game "is". And what it isn't...it's not one of my favourites, sadly. But it is in no way a bad game.

Yes... but then, why wouldn't it? The only thing it's really dependent on is your internet connection. Some graphics options are not always available (as they are preset on the machine the game is being streamed from). But I don't notice any difference from a game installed on hard drive to playing on Stadia myself :)

I have Stadia and GeForce Now. The latter costs me £5 a month and the former - well - I started with the "Pro" version (for 4K, but as I say I have a potato PC so no 4K monitor or support etc) so scrapped it, so effectively I have Stadia for free and just buy the games I want (so far only two, RDR2 and Cyberpunk - though I plan to buy Far Cry 5 and Metro Exodus in the near future). Sure, I was laughing along with everyone else about Stadia before trying it, but honestly, it's pretty great. When it doesn't work it is only because it's 5pm and my ISP (post office, pretty crap) is under strain. At all other times of the day, it works flawlessly and I only get 1 to 2mb down if I'm lucky. It's fun to know I can also put Chrome browser on some other devices and play the games there too, like my old crappy laptop and smartphone! The choice for me was made cos I don't have much HDD space left and am not upgrading my PC yet, these factors pushed me towards Stadia and GeForce Now for the meantime. Also that no download is needed so I buy the game, press one more button and I'm playing. It's nice! GeForce Now is also good however I honestly think the performance on Stadia is that little bit better. I try RDR2 on Stadia at 3pm and it works fine, but another game on GeForce Now at that hour is a bit stuttery. I do also like GeForce Now, as it is linked with Steam. Deus Ex ran almost flawlessly, JP:Evolution also. Star Trek online is a hot mess however, no matter what time of day (even 3am in the morning) and it runs like crap. But overall very happy with GeForce Now as I am with Stadia. But like I say outside of the one-time purchase of games for Stadia, I'm not paying for it, so I don't have much to complain about. I am totally over owning hard copies of games - they are just "stuff", stuff that can be re-bought in the future if I must. Finally, speaking to other Stadia users (actual users, not people who are merely looking at it and commenting lol) they all sound a bit like me - happy with it. So you are right (and wise) to ask people who actually use it. I'm yet to find someone who uses it and ISN'T satisfied. They probably exist, but through Red Dead Online I've met a lot of people now and whenever the Stadia conversation comes up, it's generally praise. All the best!

It's nice to buy without Tor browser hassle. It's also nice to have another option than weed stashed in someone's butt-crack in Camden Town. so thank you!

I'm sticking with Coinbase for now. That "Earn rewards" feature at the top netted me a free bag of weed, so not complaining yet, even if Coinbase does have a couple of slightly annoying quirks.

is it just standard post? there are some mailing centers (royal mail) that are crap at the moment. swindon for one. i'm watching the tracking on my next day delivery and it's being really slow to move down the country... they have missed the 24 hour window by almost 24 hours now (but this is the first time it has happened). opening hours are minimal and they probably have reduced staff. waiting 14 days is probably fair for "royal mail conditions" and the vendor. that said, i'm now only using vendors who do next day deliv and/or tracking. i'd rather pay that little bit more and know whats going on than pay less and be completely out of the loop, with the way things are at the moment. i imagine these local lockdowns aren't helping. anyway fingers crossed for you mate!

Mm yeah some are putting strain initials, weight/amount on the inner packaging (so it is still discreet info), so you can easily match it up to your order(s) - this is most useful!!
