If we can have about 40% less cringy dialogue and the same overall art style, that would be splendid. Thanks.
And actually be an immersive sim this time

This game (and the box spinoff) amaze me in just how well Russian propaganda machine is tuned into an average American gamer. Show them some ass, give them a definitely anti-woke attitude and they will sing praises defending it forever.
