GUI is a generic swiss army knife. It's easy to introduce to someone, and it has a whole array of tools ready for use. However, each of those tools is only half-decent at its job at best, and all of the tools are unwieldy. The manual is included, but it mostly tells you how to do things that are pretty obvious.

CLI is a toolbox full of quality tools and gadgets. Most people who open the box for the first time don't even know which tools they're looking for. In addition, each tool has a set of instructions that must be followed to a T. Those who know how to use the tools can get things done super quickly, but those who don't know will inevitably cause some problems. Oh, but the high-detail manuals for all the tools are in the side compartment of the toolbox too.

Definitely not designed for long-term writing. I can already imagine the sharp edges digging into my fingers. Even with my calluses, I don't think it would be nice to write with.

The staedtler 925 is great. I think you might prefer the graphgear 500 over the 1000 though, as the rubber nubs on the 1000 are more annoying than plain knurled metal, imo.

I have been using 3 for the last 6 or so years. I also like 1 and 4. Can't go wrong with 2.

I still think the best thing is Helldivers 2 is when you hold down the trigger on some heavy weapon and your person just starts laughing maniacally

The real solution is to find a parker compatible chassis that has the right shape, feel, and weight for your preferences. Then simply buy parker refills of your choice. Energel .5 is pretty great :)

I love my North. Solid front panel IO, good airflow, ample storage mounts, good grommets on cable routing holes, good documentation... and it looks sexy as hell!

Don't worry too much about early game speech checks. The game knows your skill levels are low, so the story plays into Henry needing to improve. Also, don't be afraid to flee a fight you aren't prepared for. You won't majorly ruin future content unless you start murder hobo-ing. Enjoy the game! It's quite a treat in my opinion :)

To the folks recommending the game, can I ask you a question? Not trying to antagonize, just curious:

What makes Cyberpunk click for you? I played at launch, wasn't really enthralled, and refunded. I later grabbed it on sale + Phantom Liberty DLC, played through the main story and half of the DLC, and it still never clicked for me. I wasn't entirely bored, but there were so many moments where I felt like the game world didn't really care what I did unless I was playing a main mission.

What are some things I can try in Cyberpunk to see if it clicks for me?

I'm late to the party, but I just wanted to point out that your username followed by your argument gave me a good chuckle.

OBJECTION!!!

How far in are you? In the beginning section of the game, >!Henry and Hans have a big fallout, but it eases up after the first main story beat!<.

If anyone here is playing KC:D2, the actor for Hans Capon (Luke Dale) made a mini-docu on the threat of AI to voice acting. I thought it was well edited and presented the problem in a very digestible way for those who know little about AI, so here it is for anyone interested: https://youtu.be/R55QzK8Hles
