I was in the same situation but with Ross and Barry playing through it on Game Grumps. Even without playing it myself though, the game is truly something special.

Well said. The show wasn’t mindless by any stretch. It had quite a bit going on, but it also had a clear idea of the story it wanted to tell.

Shows how much I actually remember haha, it must have been whatever the next season was where I dropped off. I recall her spending time in a commune and getting rehired at the company while secretly working for the terrorists, but I don’t remember anything after that. So either I stopped watching or the ending was so uninteresting that it got purged from my memory lmao

I watched the first season and about half of the second when they came out, but going off of my half memory of the show I found it to be fine. It was a solid enough romcom with a sci fi flavor, the jokes all landed how they should. I recall that in the second season, the tech support rep joined this terrorist cell that was trying to take down the company running the digital afterlife, but I don’t recall where(if anywhere) they took that.

I think going in looking for anything but a cyberpunk backdrop to a mostly unrelated story is a mistake. It would be quite interesting seeing another story explore the concepts set up by Upgrade or Black Mirror’s “San Junipero”, but I couldn’t tell you where to find that.
