On the PC Steam side of things, over 1 million concurrent players right now for Cyberpunk 2077
The Steam forums have their normal release day gripes which should settle down in the coming weeks/months as drivers get updated and optimization patches but the vast majority are playing the game on Steam right now while staying off the forums

I just started it on the PS4. What life path are you all starting off with? I went with nomad, but will likely play through all 3.

No clue, I literally just started the download lol.
I will let it download today and play it later today when I'm done with work.

Got it on Steam. I chose the middle option, forget what it was called. I picked the largest option for my character, if you catch my drift.

*Checks personal Gaming Commandments*
1. Never pre-order
2. Never buy/play a game until six months post-release
3. Never buy into the AAA hype
4. Never buy into the "Studio X truly cares about gamers" talk. They are all businesses and will get away with whatever consumers allow them to.
*Checks CP2077 reviews & reddit*
Yup.
It'll probably be an amazing experience once it's finished. When it's finished. I sat on Witcher 3 until the last DLC was out and it went on sale, and I was glad I did. It was awesome, I had the hardware to run it on ultra, and I enjoyed a complete, bug-free game. But I never got sucked in to the CP2077 hype, partly because it's first-person and I never got hooked by the cyberpunk genre (although I have great memories of the Sega Genesis Shadowrun RPG). I'll get around to Cyberpunk when I get around to it, and do my best to avoid the spoilers.

Those are normally my rules as well, but I couldn't help myself this time. I can't remember the last time I paid full price for a game.

Same and I might regret it, but I've been drying up my latest favorites, so CB2077 came at an opportune moment.

Clearly they're going with the ME3 "Destroy" ending as canon, with the destroyed Mass Relay and sections of the galaxy isolated/cut off from each other (there's also a dead Reaper in the background when Liara is trudging up the snow). If you had a high enough EMS had the end of ME3, Shepard lives at the very end of the "Destroy" ending, but in the teaser Liara is obviously much older (look at the crow's feet and lines around her mouth), so Shepard is probably dead now?

I was thinking he's frozen on that planet where she landed.
And they are digging him out to bring him back.
Then the game can begin ala ME2 where you wake up and as a new player they ask you questions and you fill in the history for your own particular Shepard.

It would be pretty cheesy writing to bring him back from death again, especially if a couple centuries have passed, but I think the bigger problem would be having a character as central to the universe as Shepard just die offscreen 500 years prior. I can't envision any satisfying way of making that happen. I can't imagine a ME game without him. Andromeda just felt like a soulless side story.

Yeah it is cheesy and using it twice would feel like lazy writing, but I think that's what they'll do.

Turns out Liara is actually climbing on a dead Reaper. Weird how Shepard's armor ended up there, since he woke up on the wreckage of the citadel after ME3, and that was located above Earth at the time.
