How to make a nice meat, carrot, onion and potato stew.
As winter time bears in, a stew is a great remedy to fix that coldness that pierces your heart. The following is a quick recipe for a delicious stew. 2 Servings.

1. Gather the vegetables, then prepare them up with a cleaver or knife on a wooden cutting board.
2. Grab a meat of your choice to go with the vegetables! Ideally a red meat.
3. Preheat your stove to a medium/high temperature and fill a pot to about 50% water and bring to a boil.
4. Throw your red meat and vegetables into the pot and wait for about 10-15 minutes.

What I like to do while waiting is sit by a nice fireplace letting the warmth fill me body and soul with peace.
Once cooked, put the stew into 2 bowls and enjoy! Throw any leftovers in the bin as the meat can go off very quickly.

Bon Appetit :]

To be honest, I can't really recommend this game, even when it's on sale.

I decided to give Cyberpunk 2077 a chance long after the chaotic initial launch. This means that the game has had ample opportunity to address many of its complaints and bugs.

My first major complaint is that the story is incredibly short compared to CD Projekt Red's previous game, The Witcher. It's also shorter than similar games from other publishers. As someone who likes to explore and complete everything in one area before moving on, it became apparent to me that the main storyline would shift to different districts. So, I completed the storyline in each district, finished the side objectives, gigs, and collectables, and then moved on. However, I was disappointed to discover that the game completely neglects the two most densely populated districts. It's annoying because I expected the story to transition through ALL the different areas and showcase every aspect of Night City. Instead, two beautiful and well-crafted districts are left solely for side content. Why?

Another issue with the story that I don't understand is the fact that the main character is dying. So, why include many gigs, collectables, and side missions that waste V's precious time when their main priority should be trying to remove the chip? When you're on a side mission, the chip's continuous damage just disappears and becomes irrelevant. There's no countdown when you have the chip. You are told you have two weeks to live, but I spent over a month doing everything else but the main story without any consequences. The chip mainly affects V when you're on the main story. In fact, if you rush through the main story to remove the chip and then plan to do the side content, you will be incredibly disappointed with the conclusion of the story. To avoid spoiling anything, you have to reload your final save after completing the final mission.

It just doesn't make sense. They had many years to perfect the story, but this isn't it.

My second major issue is the entire stealth approach in the game, which is awful and too punishing. For those who prefer a stealth-only playstyle like I do, you will be quickly disappointed. There are only a few ways to distract people, and once you're seen, everyone in the area magically knows exactly where you are and charges at you. You have less than a second to kill someone if your first shot doesn't take them out. It doesn't matter if you snipe them from 300 meters away or right in front of their face; you're pinpointed by everyone. This doesn't make any sense. There's no search for your character (they only search if they see a dead body). There are too many issues with stealth to explain fully in my review, and I understand this is already quite long and tiresome. But stealth was so bad that I switched to a braindead shotgun build that wiped the floor with everyone, even on the hardest difficulty.

If you're looking for: Elaborate, well designed gameplay mechanics and a great story. This isn't the game for you.
If you're looking for: Go to objective, shoot everything, get loot, leave. Repeat. This game is for you.
