Altered Carbon S1 is really good, but its still different from the book. Maybe by like 30%, so some key things change, but the show is still solid. S2 of AC is entirely different from what I recall of the show though so Im not sure I can advise going beyond season 1.

    Oh and not too long ago I read the two books from the upcoming Exodus game, written by Peter F. Hamilton (Exodus: The Archimedes Engine, and Exodus: The Helium Sea), Neat setting and some good characters, but there was too much detail on seemingly unimportant things for my tastes. I felt like they could have trimmed it more. But I suppose others might like the extra details

    I finished the Takeshi Kovacs novels (Altered Carbon, Broken Angels, Woken Furies) from Richard K Morgan. They were good. He likes to use the word 'laconic' a lot though lol.

    Now Im reading Leviathan Wakes (1st book of The Expanse series) by James S.A. Corey which I learned a bit ago is actually 2 people: Ty Franck and Daniel Abraham. It has also been good.

    yeah, some people confuse "I dont want to promote this" with "this should be punished with downvotes"

    If ppl dont like a question they should just not engage or upvote

    ME2 is amazing and ME1 was great. 3 had good mechanics but worse writing, and Andromeda was terrible on many fronts but the ability to change your build on the fly was cool.

    When I talk about Exodus and Expanse Im talking more about the style of third-person sci-fi RPGs with companions.
