    It was both a happy day and a sad day on my last playthrough for Cyberpunk 2077. Great game after the latest patches.

    Ah, the researchers finally got around to playing Expedition 33 huh?

    Jokes aside, isn’t this also a phenomenon with finishing books and TV shows?

    Same with TV shows. Finished scrubs again, got to end, turned it off and tried to figure out what was next. Sad times.
