VTMB2 isn't looking so good (and part 2 of the Cyberpunk 2077 review)

Lemme know how you all feel about this video style. I'm hoping with refinement this could be a way for me to make certain kinds of videos more quickly so that I could talk about more current evens without devolving into the kind of channel whose entire content model is summarizing Kotaku articles in front of a webcam and adding more sources later. Another benefit to this style of video is that my cat Frisk gets to be in the whole thing
So I almost forgot to make part 2 of the Cyberpunk 2077 review where we talk about the story more and the overall impact of the game. Cyberpunk 2077's story is pretty straightforward if you ask me and it's just fancied up by a lot of tenchobabble and whatnot.
Here's that video reveling that Damsel was going to be in VTMB2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ge2sztE3mHM
Also here's Outstar's video, she does a great job summarizing and explaining the events from an insiders' prospective https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h2PsPo5z4co
I have to admit that I was so uninterested by this that I figured I'd kill two birds with one stone and try out a new experimental video style that'd also allow me to talk about recent developments with VTMB2, the TL;DR of which is that apparently Paradox went and fired all of Hardsuit Labs off the produciton of Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines 2 for unspecified reasons. At this rate I'm starting to believe that the immersive sim curse is a very real thing, or at the very least there is a clear pattern of developers who are out of their depth getting overambitious after playing System Shock 2 or Prey (2017) and thinking "yeah, we could probably make one of those..."
