When you're all done with your little pink panty meltdown, let me know... 'cause I'd like to get down to business.
Fully agree. Lots of jokes; they're not very funny, tho. IDK... Maybe it will get more interesting the further I get. I still wanna check out Neon (the cyberpunk city) and do deep space exploration (can't even get out there yet). I've been to a museum ran by the Starship Troopers faction that gives a ton of exposition on the lore and it was a chore to stay awake through all that.
With how many call backs, jokes and references I've seen in the main plot: it doesn't take itself too seriously. Half of the jokes have been directly related to the lack of dialogue options and having a silent protagonist.
I can get the sentiment about the combat being uninspired and a bit bland, and things being formulaic but... There is still something that draws me in. I really have no words for what it is, but somehow these games suck me in despite their problems and "boring" mechanics.
Risa is a pleasure planet in the show. Basically a planet that bases its entire economy on tourism and pleasing others. In all ways. Yes. Even that one.

"It's your prerogative, sir."
"Yes... It is."
I get excited that I have a girlfriend. Although I don't know what she wants with my game saves. 🤷🏻♂️
It doesn't exactly have the cyber part of cyberpunk. I wouldn't say that alien tech, especially that of an invading species humanity doesn't even know about, would count.
It's a skill, like concentration. It's used like concentration is, with it being checked when you're attacked during a performance for a buff or other bard spell you've cast that requires focus. The game does do this (like, it checks your performance skill when attacked while concentrating on a spell), but instead of actually showing your character playing continuously while having one of these spells cast, you just pick a song to play as a free action to just add flavor totally optionally. Now, in, say, Neverwinter Nights when you are concentrating on a skill, your character will play their instrument until they fail a check or the spell ends completely automatically.
Also: You can make money playing instruments. There is even an achievement to make so much.
I found a Brass Oil Lamp, but it has no genie :(
Thought it was funny that my character commented on it and the description says that the sides are shiner than the rest, as if they've been frequently rubbed. lol
